Really lame motives for characters.
Tons of characters not listening to anyone else so they could have fight scenes
Seriously why does Black Widow exist, other than the fact that she is hot
The rooftop figh scene is a bunch of one-liners and everybody holding back because

Spoderman is the one shining point of the movie. Go figure, he is the one character far removed from the central conflict.

So much of this movie could have been avoided if people dropped the idiot ball and just told people why something was so important to them.

And yeah, I'm gonna pull the comic card. This conflict seems so light and unworthy of the all out actual war that was in the comics. I'm not sying the comic was perfect, but why was this movie even made when it cant compare in scope?

Is that the drama where the rich girl and poor girl found out they were switched at birth? Then they all move in together?

My situation is worse. I'm at a low paying job that I hate, but it's comfy af since I work from home. So my options are 1) stay and be miserable yet retain convenience, or 2) find a better job, but likely have to commute and waste time getting ready for work.

What would you do?

Commuting isnt all bad. It at least stimulates you a little before work.

Nice paying job, but the hours are graveyard, boss is shady, you cna be easily replaced, and the company is constantly changing and not as fun as it once was.

Lower paying job, but the work is stisfying, hours are easy, workload is light, you have freedom, but there isnt much room for advancement, you are the only foreigner in the office, and there is somewhat of a language barrier, but you can study it.

Kind of my life situation right now. I really liked the lower paying job, as it makes me happier, the hours are realistic, and it is more satisfying. However, it doesn't pay what it should, and there is extra study involved.

Life sucks. Help.

I really didnt like how he always tackled animals or provoked them. It seemed kind of abusive.

When he wasn't pinning animals down though, he was pretty well informed and entertaining.

And yeah, it is too bad he died. It seems like we dont have many animal experts to fill his void of entertianment and education.

If you have a bachelor's degree, it is pretty easy to get in. You cna also work at the factories if you can deal with that.

Through what type of visa did you get?

What kind of job do you have there?

I honestly cant remember. I was only an ALT, but I liked it. I highly reccomend you dont do it if you dont like teaching though.

Man, it's my dream to live in Japan, that I know I'll never be able to attain :( Not even for weeb reasons, but because I genuinely love their culture. You're so super duper lucky.

If you have a bachelor's degree, it is pretty easy to get in. You cna also work at the factories if you can deal with that.

Japan is great but it really isnt what people think it is. Anime is mostly for kids, and there is a TON of crappy anime in between all the stuff other countries love. Diet is completely different, and meat is not the same (beef is disappointing).

However, I love the people and the land itself. Im not so into Tokyo, as it really doesnt represent Japan very well. It is like saying Las Vegas is America. It is a cool place, but it is the only place like that in the country.

I really don't care much about anime and video games so much as I love their life philosophies. Living healthy, personal responsibility, respect for the elderly, the emphasis on preserving art and the past, etc etc etc... I could go on. I looooove Japanese food (I don't eat beef so that point's irrelevant), specifically their focus on presentation when it comes to plating... The attention to detail in Japan's culture is fucking amazing. I wanna be them. The tacky, zany stuff is just icing on the cake.

My main roadblock in moving there is that I have a fiance. Not in the sense that I don't want to be with her, but more that it's just tougher to get two people over there. I could probably easily get a job as an English teacher since most people say that's the easiest way to get a work visa, and I know basic Japanese. But my fiance doesn't know a lick of it, and I imagine it'd be even tougher to get two work visas...

They could hire your wife along with you, or she could just tag along and get citizenship. She could study basic japanese beforehand (which is easy), and chill out and study while you work, until she is comfortable to start herself. That is what my married friends did.

I was working in Japan. I loved it, but I came back to kind of rejuvinate my health as summers are really brutal. I lived in Koga, Ibaraki. Not a large place, but it is developed and has a lot of nice things, like plenty of shopping, places to see, game centers, nature...

I was expecting to be excited. Real pizza, cheddar cheese, movies, no humidity, English on a normal basis...

But it is more difficult than I expected. Food does nothing for me, nothing interests me, I miss my friends, my routine, music, even the food I thought I was sick of (there isnt much variety in food).

I cant tell if it is just culture shock, if I am really depressed, or if I really dont belong here anymore.
