- Comment on When was the last time a Republican Oresident left office with a good economy? 1 week ago:
I’m happy to know that I’m not the only one who notices this. Democrats lay out a beautiful table with a wonderful meal for all, repubs come in and say “wow, look what I made!” And then proceed to have a food fight, after which a dem has to come in and clean it up. The one that I’m curious about is Carter leading into the 80s. Did he do things to set the economy up proper, or was it the result of a rubber band effect from the global economy being overall shit at the time.

So in this instance would quiet quitting lead to the desired result? Just doing the most subpar work until they’re forced to fire you with a severance…

That headline is just rude. It makes me thing that I’m under the governing power of DeShitis, and that’s something I can not abide.

What the fuck…. I thought the exact same thing until this moment. Idk what to say, my life is a lie. This is like when I found out that Disney wasn’t spelled with a backwards G at the front.

And the upcoming wolfman? Didn’t benicio del toro already do one? And I know the mummy with Tom cruise didn’t do well, but is that included also? Their constant attempts at a dark universe are just sad at this point.

In Supernatural they went to Longmont Colorado, and it was in the middle of lush (obviously Canadian) forest. There is no forest anywhere really near Longmont. It would’ve been more accurate had they shot that shit in LA.

- Comment on 6 Reasons So Many Movies Are Struggling At The Box Office In 2024 5 months ago:
People have been saying that about movies for decades now. Ever since the early 00’s when gay culture became significantly more accepted into the mainstream stream, there has been an overly vocal crowd of bigots who just want their movies to be straight white folks facing problems. It’s just a nice reminder that a large majority of Christians aren’t actually Christian, they’re just hateful and using a centuries old fantasy anthology as an excuse for it.
- Comment on Next Battlefield game will have “connected” multiplayer and single-player offerings, made by series’ biggest team yet 6 months ago:
The current one is playable. It just took a while to get there… and some maps refuse to load for the first few minutes of a match… then the map loads, but player models don’t leading you to get shredded by an invisible opponent. It does have its issues like all BF games, but it is definitely a DRASTIC improvement from what it started as. A lot more maps, a shit load more guns, and this is coming from someone who was legit disgusted with what they originally released.

To be fair, 1700 a month isn’t all that much for someone with his kind of money. But it’s possible that he’s not as well funded as I assume, seeing as how he recently did that State Farm commercial…

They still do them, but they got a lot more corporate influence, so they definitely aren’t as good.

- Comment on When characters in a cartoon start speaking a different language do they get someone else to do the line or does the voice actor learn the line on their own? 10 months ago:
I’m pretty sure I covered that in the second part of my comment…
- Comment on When characters in a cartoon start speaking a different language do they get someone else to do the line or does the voice actor learn the line on their own? 10 months ago:
From what I’ve seen, it depends on how much is being spoken, and very much depends on what the actor is capable of. For a single line, more often than not the actor will learn it phonetically, and just say it themselves. If it’s a whole episode, the actor may accept the challenge, but if confidence isn’t high, they’ll get a sound alike. For full translations, like anime dubs, they get all new actors. But sometimes the same actor will stay and do the other language if they are fluent enough in it to do the job well.
Then there’s Vin Diesel doing all the alternate language versions of his groot line himself, which a lot of people tout as amazing, but I feel like learning how to say one thing in a foreign language, and just saying it with different levels of intensity or cadence, is something that anyone can do, and shouldn’t really be celebrated.

Go fuck yourself.
- Comment on ‘Daredevil’ Hits Reset Button as Marvel Overhauls Its TV Business 1 year ago:
Not being “redone,” instead the character is being “reborn.” The title lays it all out there. And as we all know being born once is no longer enough, and doesn’t create a compelling character, since a true compelling character is actually born twice! /s
Seriously though, the first season of Netflix daredevil is the best thing marvel tv has ever put out, and now the desire is to change one of the main features that made it work. They’re actively trying to kill marvel as a whole and you can’t convince me otherwise.
