For these types of fanboys it's the idea of something that is somehow meaningful and not its content. Dr Strange and Spiderman on screen team up is stupendous, whether how that's portrayed is fun and interesting or not. That's the impression I've gotten from talking with them

Joseph Joestar worked hard for one month, which yeah that sucks for one month but it's not that much time. AFAIK, Part 3 and Part 4 Jojo put in none of that hard work.

True on later Jojos but I was only speaking in reference to Part 2; the Hamon parts are more traditionally Shonen, when you especially look at Part 4 onwards the concept of power levels and training more or less ceases to exist.

I thought it was superb until the car crash at which point it felt like the movie ran out of juice; they let the ending monologue tie up loose points and twists but it feels deflating. I like the line about him finding Doris in a place where there are words that aren't here, in reference to how little he spoke to most people, but it feels underdeveloped. Billy Bob Thornton's performance was absolutely killer.

I'm not so sure they always say "anyone can succeed if they work hard" so much that "hard work is necessary to realize your full potential." Characters like Goku, Gon, and Joseph Joestar are gifted with fabulous genetics but they also have to be willing to put immense work in because those who oppose them have fabulous genetics or underlying circumstances of their own.

Yes really. They believe in the God from the Hebrew Bible.

They have different interpretations on his truth, but saying they believe in different gods is like saying Baptists and Mormons believe in a different god.

If you don't worship Jesus as God, you necessarily do not believe in the same God as Christians.

the flashkick is only as strong as your kick. your flashkick wont be as strong as guile unless you super rip like he is. also you're assuming you can easily flashkick anyone.

What the fuck does "ability to do Guile's Flash Kick" mean if you can't assume you can actually flash kick someone?

With the murky time setting of the movie, I initially wondered if it was still the time of fridges not having an internal lock and you can kill yourself by locking yourself inside. But I think the point of the scene is just trying to escape that crushing feeling that comes from anxiety and depression.

I feel like this criticism misses a big picture. Ellen didnt throw a million dollars away, she invested it in a hard luxury good. The money didn't disappear either, it simply changed hands.

I don't see why Ellen has some grand responsibility to give all that money away when each day we implicitly endorse the system that is integral for people like Ellen continuing to exist. It seems a very petty and misdirected use of righteous anger.

Actually there were many officers' clubs that Yossarian had not helped build, but he was proudest of the one on Pianosa. It was a sturdy and complex monument to his powers of determination. Yossarian never went to there to help until it was finished; then he went there often, so pleased was he with the large, fine, rambling shingled building. It was a truly splendid structure, and Yossarian throbbed with a mighty sense of accomplishment each time he gazed at it and reflected that none of the work that had gone into it was his.
