More or less. It's more complicated than that (because of course it is, it's the Senate) but basically the filibuster can be thought of as "refusing to agree to end the time for debate" of a bill. So it just dies there because if the debate time can't end then you can't proceed to voting on the actual bill.

Thanks! I know about as much as I remember from high school and have picked up from the news.

How'd this pass the Senate with only 50 votes? I thought pretty much everything needed 60, or at least that's what they say about why they can't pass anything people actually want.

I believe pretty much anything can pass with a simple majority unless somebody objects/filibusters, then it needs 60 for cloture? I'm probably missing some details.

The idea is that he has almost unparalleled YouTube clout and could be making his viewers aware of how easily things could be improved instead of training them to think its actually good that the only way things get better is rich dudes doing charity.

I mean, he could, but what is that actually going to do?

"Things could be improved, but they won't because the people in power suck."

I'd honestly rather the dude just do charity than preach to the choir.

I'm not sure I understand the 'misguided' thing. People are upset at him that he's doing good things because he gets a lot of views from it? That's been my impression the past couple months anyways.

"Oh no, someone with 145,000,000 YT followers is popularizing doing good things! He's just doing good things for views, and we only want good things to happen when nobody is watching!"

It's a baffling take to me. Good things are good things. Yeah it would be better if healthcare was fixed and a bunch of people didn't to realize on a generous celebrity for their lift changing surgery or whatever, but it would cost more money than even he has to fix the system versus simply doing some good in it. But by all means I'm not an expert on why he's been getting flack for his deeds, so it's entirely possible I'm unaware of some element to it all.

For the most part he's good. Great, even. There have been a few cases where he didn't think things out quite as well as he probably could have. The most recent example, which isn't even really his fault, is that he was going to show up at a grocery store to pay for some people's groceries, and an employee leaked it, so a TON of people showed up. For safety reasons, he had to cancel, which lead to people just leaving full carts of food everywhere that the employees then had to clean up. To his credit, I believe he paid the store for the trouble or something, but it kinda showed that he didn't really have any contingency plan for such a thing. Again, not really his fault at all, but it ended up becoming a mess.

I don't disagree with what you're saying, though, ultimately. I think what he does is great. I definitely don't agree with the whole "How dare he publicize it/get views!" crap.

EDIT: I really shouldn't have used the word "misguided," probably. I wasn't really sure how the board feels about him, so I hedged my bets, I think.

But I wouldn't say she's stupid so much as she wanted to believe that her husband wouldn't lie to her to protect their marriage.

She'd do anything for him, too. And if that means she turns a blind eye to him doing things she knows he shouldn't, that's what it means.

She's less dumb and more blinded by love, basically. She's presented as wanting to believe he wouldn't do certain things, even if the logic is there to suggest he is, in fact, doing said things. "Love makes you do dumb things" is a good way to explain it. It's not out of outright stupidity or maliciousness, more just... Her ignoring the probable truth because she doesn't really want to accept it.

Love makes people stupid

But I think the fact that Ron never fully becomes a good guy makes him a more interesting character. The fact that Phoenix defends a criminal and gets him off the hook is a nice twist on the formula. It's just more palatable than, say, Matt Engarde because Ron is likable.

Yeah, I don't disagree at all, ultimately. It's an interesting addition to the character that I wasn't fully aware of.

It ultimately doesn't change my overall opinion on Desiree. It just tells me she's a bigger idiot blinded by love than 3-2 initially makes her out to be. Which is fun, in itself.

Okay, yeah, the AAI2 dialogue further suggests Ron didn't fully reform, but it's also played like Desiree's an idiot that isn't catching on to what he's doing (since he has to explain why she's doing what she's doing). Which, to be fair, is in character, since a big part of 3-2 is how she just believed everything he told her.

Ultimately, I think that's enough to say you're probably more right than not and it's not worth arguing. That said, I do think it's telling that, in both cases, it's Ron either thinking aloud, or outright telling Desiree they have to do something.

But that has changed my opinion from "Ron is an idiot" to "They're both idiots," so you win.

During the post-credits scene. They start a security firm that secretly sells the plans to the bad guys, leading Ron to wonder if they're actually the real bad guys.

And they're clearly scouting out the area for a heist in their cameo in AAI2. Ron doesn't change his ways. Desiree changes her ways.

I think you're misunderstanding that. It's them attempting to turn over a new leaf. They're just, well, idiots.

I looked at wiki, and it doesn't say anything about Ron continuing a life of crime after the double jeopardy. It just says this:

After their ordeal, the DeLites started an organization aiming to help thieves start honest lives, with their slogan being: "Cut it out, PLEEEEEEEEEEEASE!" Ironically, they also help thieves by giving them detailed plans for their heists.

Well, yes, Ron is dumb for not trusting that his wife actually loves him, but she does opt for the life of crime so she doesn't actually have to spend less money.

She doesn't at all knowingly do this prior to the case, though. She doesn't know he's a thief until the case is actually happening. That's the entire point. She doesn't even actually "opt for the life of crime." She just decides to try to defend him because... You know, she loves him. Nothing at all suggests she's pushing for him to get away with crime and keep continuing it. At no point does it suggest "Desiree wants him to keep being a thief so she can keep spending money" like... At all. Where did you get that?

Or it's rationalization because it's Ron. Regardless, she certainly doesn't advocate for him to change his ways. She happily joins him. You can call that growth if you want, I guess.

She does advocate for him to change his ways, though, by literally going "Had you just asked me, I'd spend less money." That's like, the crux of the entire case ending. And it's why Ron is such an idiot. She doesn't "Join him" until there's already a case about it. It's not like she knew what he was doing the entire time. She only "joins him" by coming to his defense and trying to claim he'd never do what he did. And that's where they end up, by agreeing that Desiree will change her lifestyle so Ron doesn't feel like he has to promise things he can't.t

With the success of Drive to Survive, could an F-Zero movie work as a kind of pseudo documentary. maybe something like Rush?

That's just it. An F-Zero movie has so many options, more than possibly any other Nintendo property. Yes, it doesn't have the casual appeal of Mario or Pokemon, but... What does? Something like Metroid has drastically less casual appeal than Sonic, for instance, which means anything Nintendo puts out, at this point, basically has to build off of other properties. It's what makes DK the easiest, even if not the most exciting, because it was already built up in the Mario movie.

EDIT: They could arguably make a standalone Zelda movie, but that's about it, as far as standalone appeal goes.

She rationalized it after she learned what Ron had done that she doesn't hate all criminals, just cowardly ones. Ron is okay because he's a noble thief or whatever.

I mean, that's entirely out of her love for Ron, who was acting under misguided purposes to begin with. That, in itself, is growth.

Excluding the main cast (which counts defendants and prosecutors), Desiree is probably the best character in Ace Attorney to never actually testify. Aside from her bringing in a certain piece of incriminating evidence, of course, which just proves what a keeper she is. Obvious why Ron wants her to stay. She actually cares deeply about him because he will do anything for her. And she's hot.

3-2 is one of my favorite cases and that subplot is one reason why. It's written differently than most other cases and that makes it more compelling, even though Ron and Luke are idiots (for two very different reasons).

This makes me forever love 3-2. Too many cases rely on focusing on the culprit or the defendant. Desiree is the one who makes 3-2 work so well. Yes, I'll always love the over the top Luke Atmey more than her, for instance, but I'll never downplay how much she makes that case.

F-Zero is all about wacky superheroes and 80's retro vibes, our culture has practically never been more primed to receive it

granted it would probably bomb still

This is another point. What made stuff like Guardians of the Galaxy connect with today's audience also applies directly to F-Zero. The current GotG loving audience is like, perfect for an F-Zero movie.

That isn't to say it would work, but the potential is clearly there. And it's why F-Zero has more potential than, say, Metroid or Star Fox, which would have to live purely on "space movie" hype. You can easily have a trailer of Captain Falcon banging to some 80s music. You can't do that with Samus or Fox.

EDIT: My argument is mainly that there's more potential in building to an F-Zero movie than there is in just pushing out a Metroid movie. Metroid is not a widely beloved casual series like Mario, and it can't get over on GotG-esque appeal like F-Zero can.

Yeah, but it's much easier to hit it out of the park with a Mario movie for obvious reasons. People who grew up with Mario and raised kids who played Mario will have a nostalgia for the Easter eggs that they won't have for F-Zero.

Marvel succeeded because of good writing and good casting. Even people who like the Mario movie admit it doesn't have good writing.

Right, but again, the level of "success" Nintendo has to hit is a good bit less than what Marvel has to hit, due to budget differences.

I'm not necessarily disagreeing with you. I'm just saying it remains to be seen what Nintendo can pull off, since they have a much different hill to climb. DC had to climb Marvel's hill since it was direct competition. Nintendo is, ultimately, building their own hill to climb, since the closest competition was... Sonic? So it remains to be seen what happens. Nintendo doesn't have to match Marvel's success because they don't match Marvel's budget, so it leaves things open.

Eh, I don't think Nintendo can replicate Marvel's formula and expect to have the same degree of success. It's easy to talk about, but there's a reason DC hasn't been able to have the same type of success with their EU.

DC hasn't had the same success because their movies have notably been of worse quality, noted both from fans and critics alike.

So far, Nintendo hit it out of the park with fans. They can capitalize on it. If they do remains to be seen.

And even then, you have to assume the Nintendo movie budget is a good bit less than Marvel's, so they don't have to reach the same amount of success as Marvel to be profitable. That's another DC problem. They have huge budgets, so they DO have to see similar success.

I disagree. If it comes at the right time, with the right hype, it'd do well. Picture Antman or GotG. On their own, they're guaranteed box office bombs. But with the right build and hype...

It's all about planning and hype. By all accounts, stuff like Antman and GotG SHOULD have bombed, and yet...

That said, video game movies do have a steeper hill to climb than superhero movies. They'd have to plan it right.

F-Zero is the right choice. It can be spun in like a billion different ways and would be super easy to give wide mainstream appeal to.

I've altered my thinking somewhat. F-Zero doesn't necessarily need to be next, but it does need to happen, since it's so easy to tie things into, and it has more broad appeal than Metroid or Star Fox, which are strictly "Space movie" in a world where we already have plenty of popular mainstream space movies.

Thor would probably be more like Kid Icarus or Kirby. Something that is "supernatural," but fairly self-contained. Stuff like F-Zero/Metroid/Star Fox is more of a Guardians of the Galaxy thing, which would be more of a Phase 2 opener to introduce the larger universe.

F-Zero, Metroid and Star Fox all have crossover potential with each other, even without the inevitable Smash Bros Assemble. Start with a film about Cpt Falcon uncovering a conspiracy at the F-Zero GP, then have a stinger with him picking up a new bounty, but being warned that he's not the only one after it and showing shadowy outlines of the Hunter Gunship and an Arwing...

This would be amazing, actually. F-Zero is a fantastic starting point since it can start with a more focused "race" storyline, where the villain is Black Shadow attempting to use the races for something greater, and then just evolve into something bigger which opens the pathways for that. And it'd flow so well, since Black Shadow's thing is basically being the "local" flunky for a greater evil. It'd take no logical leap at all to connect Black Shadow to a force that is also involved with like, Ridley and Andross.

Donkey Kong is most likely since the characters already exist in the Nintendo movie canon. Zelda seems like a no brainer. F-Zero seems like it'd be the most interesting, since there are so many characters to explore, and you can touch on both the racing and the bounty hunting/etc. aspect of Captain Falcon. I give it the edge over Metroid and Star Fox when it comes to space movies, since it has more range in what it can cover.

EDIT: It also helps that the racing aspect doesn't undermine the villains. It's not the villains suddenly get along long enough to race, it's Black Shadow and co. being like "I'm going to use the race to kill Captain Falcon by easier, mostly legal means!"

Per topic reminder, Biden loses massively to DeSantis in 2024 once campaigning actually starts and we are all doomed.

This seems unlikely for so many reasons I've lost count, the biggest of which being DeSantis is incredibly unlikely to even be the nominee.

man you've been That Guy like the last five trans-related discussions we've had in a row

I think this is what gets me. He acts like we suddenly "turned on our own," but he has repeatedly been "That Guy."

I remember buying that Sim City for like $2 because it was on clearance at the Kmart I worked at. Is it even still playable? I have no idea.

It's sad because I feel like he meant it, at the time. The issue is that politics isn't simple, and, unfortunately, "compromise" is necessary to keep people like Trump out of office, which is fucking disgusting. What a world.

Man, its almost like I was on to something when I said that leftists were going to purity test themselves into oblivion. Sorry I only agreed with 99% of your views instead of 100%

Going to turn this off and cool down.

Ah, yes. Being rightly called out on GameFAQs.com for your bigoted views is "purity testing" that will "send leftists into oblivion."

You aren't that important, honey. Sorry.

Maybe try to just have conversations with people first instead of trying to push your views onto them.

Okay yeah this is the kind of reply that makes me cool with just agreeing to tell somebody to fuck off.

"Maybe don't try to screw over large groups of people based on pre-conceived notions and or single examples?"
"No. How dare you suggest that, you are pushing your views on me!"

Fuck. Off.

Plum attempting to mask bigoted hatred as "just asking questions and making comparisons, bro!" definitely tracks.

So, in other words...

Also, rat choking is incredibly rare, due to the structure of their throats, so it likely wasn't that. It's very possible he just had some disease you couldn't have known about, which might have been why he was abandoned to begin with. It's sad, but you did good, don't question it.

Well, he was eating just fine when I left for work, but came home just now and he's dead.

RIP.

Sorry to hear that, but you're good people for even trying.
