FortuneCookie 08/21/23 11:35:26 AM #64 | Unknown5uspect posted... It isn't all cops tho! That's the point of ACAB. It's meant as a diversion. "All Cops Are Bastards!" "Not ALL cops." "Every. Single. One. Without exception." "Not all of them. There are good cops and bad." Rinse, recycle, repeat. It's meant to decrease the chances of bastard cops like these being held accountable by redirecting the focus on whether or not all cops are bastards. |

Topic | Charles Martinet stepping down as the voice of Mario |
FortuneCookie 08/21/23 11:09:51 AM #51 | Chris Pratt won't be the ongoing voice of Mario. It isn't as simple as doing a celebrity guest voiceover. Mario sometimes receives multiple games within a single year. There's no way that Nintendo could pull Chris Pratt away from Hollywood for that kind of commitment. I like Charles Martinet, but the voice that he gave Mario doesn't work for lengthy stretches of dialogue. Having a new voice actor opens up doors for greater storytelling and character development. (Of course, that's what got Sonic in trouble.) |

Eddie has said that he thinks about his Jeremy every time he plays that song and regrets the way that he treated him. |

FortuneCookie 08/20/23 10:46:37 PM #27 | DKBananaSlamma posted... I wonder if there's people that become furries so they can tumble upon the money. Like inside they're cringing while wearing the fur suit and deeding to adult Nala from Lion King. But they perserve through it because they hope that magical sum of money will poof in front of them one day >_> Furries are far more likely to make money from illustrations than from wearing a fur suit and doing stuff. And why cringe over adult Nala? Girl was fucking based. |

FortuneCookie 08/20/23 10:37:37 PM #26 | Can we talk about how video games still use Pac-Man sound effects? It's because, when Pac-Man came out, the US patent office would not allow copyright protection for video game music and sound effects. That's also why most of the early arcade games used music that was already in the public domain. |

FortuneCookie 08/20/23 8:57:55 PM #32 | Auto_Chrisbot posted... Vs. Space Godzilla too, what with Chibi Little Godzilla and the lighter tone. The Heisei series was on the verge of going full Showa silly if they were to continue like that. But then Vs Desotoroya went super serious right after and ended the series for a few years. On one hand, you have a menacing monster antagonist and a human subplot involving a man out to avenge his brother's death. On the other hand, I see your point: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/3/6/5/AAdlC_AAExQ9.jpg |

Be pretty hilarious to see him in the Legendary Godzilla movies, being all serious and shit then out comes this dude. lol I could see him working as a fictional character in-universe.

Topic | Flash Gordon deserves a film reboot. (Slight POLITICS Warning) |
FortuneCookie 08/20/23 7:08:00 PM #17 | specialkid8 posted... Why would you make Putin and Trump stand in villains? That's just a good way to horrifically date a movie. Because, when he first appeared, Ming the Merciless looked like this: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/3/0/1/AAdlC_AAExP9.jpg You can make him less of a stereotype and people will still write clickbait articles about how the racism of the 1934 comic strip is inseparable from any attempt to revive the IP. But if you have a diverse cast of heroes battling Trump and Putin, the film becomes far less likely to draw controversy from anyone on the left. Besides, tying villains into current politics has always been a thing. In Flash Gordon Conquers the Universe, Ming dressed like Hirohito, ordered around a bunch of Germanic henchman, and had a heavyset Mussolini stand-in named Torch as his righthand man. There was also a character who referenced Ming's "dirty concentration camps." People in the future might not get that King Kala's awkward handwaving when he talks is reminiscent of Donald Trump's mannerisms, and they might not see Ming's invasion of Earth as a parallel of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, but they'll still see an evil dictator and a buffoonish puppet ruler who answers at his master's beck and call. |

But I heard that same rumbling storm sound effect that's in every movie where it rains. I knew what this cat sound effect was going to be before I clicked on it. |
Topic | University of Houston's LGBTQ Resource Center disbanded IAW Texas SB17 |
FortuneCookie 08/20/23 6:47:06 PM #45 | The_Popo posted... The problem is that cruelty isnt the point they think that theyre doing a good thing. They think that anything LGBTQ is an evil, and allowing anything to support it is supporting evil. The politicians don't think that they're "saving someone from a life of sin." People who grew up in a guarded church environment believe that. The politicians have enough exposure to the real world to know that it's bigotry to isolate and/or persecute homosexuals and trans people. And even a person's orientation were a choice, what business would it be of anyone else's? The same Book of the Bible that prohibits homosexuality says that it's wrong to get tattoos and eat shellfish. We don't try and make life hell for those folks. I am all for giving people the benefit of the doubt. I don't think that every conservative is a knowingly hostile and evil person. But unless you've completely shut the world out for the past three or four decades, I don't think anybody can realistically oppose homosexuality and still think they're one of the good guys for doing so. |

FortuneCookie 08/20/23 12:05:48 PM #18 | Being a CCP shill makes him a bad person. The thing you have to remember about shitty governments is that they target you, your family, everyone you care about. If Jackie Chan were to say, "Yeah, my country's government is a bunch of crap," he might have a nephew thrown in prison for 40 years over a marijuana charge. Disowning his daughter for being a lesbian? That makes him a shitty person. |
