Topic | Did you like AVP more or alien resurrection? |
VFalcone 11/03/23 2:13:46 PM #9 | AvP is a great popcorn flick and I think it's a bit unfairly rated. AvP Requiem takes itself too seriously while not delivering. Alien: Resurrection just isn't very good at all imo. The direction and concepts in it don't sit well with me at all. It's was a disservice to Ripley and the queen Xeno and I wish it was never made. I think Alien 3 Assembly Cut is a great film. Obviously not as good as Alien and Aliens but it can safely sit at 3rd place. |

Yeah, nobody knew who the Guardians of the Galaxy were before it came out, and it ended up being a fan favorite. It doesn't matter if they use lesser known characters since most of them were to begin with. A_Good_Boy posted... I don't think that's necessarily true. People showed up to GotG and Shang-Chi. Like, who the fuck are those guys amirite?It's the only Marvel team standing on its legs now. But they aren't from Phase 4... I think GotG succeeded because it came out at the best time possible. It got to ride alongside the success of Phases 1-3 where everyone was hype and interested with Marvel so they were more willing to give GotG a try. Now GotG can continue to succeed in 2023 because it still has the fans it got back then. I don't think GotG would have done so well if it first debuted today. |

VFalcone 11/02/23 6:25:35 PM #144 | lolife67 posted... You're proving my point. Having A listers are irrelevant if your movie is bad. Just like having unknown characters doesn't matter if the movie is good. Quality is the main factor, not character awareness.My overall point was that people aren't going to buy tickets to see a movie about characters they don't know or care about even if it gets 98% Rotten Tomatoes, so the movies fail automatically. With DC, they burned the public so badly that every movie is destined to fail no matter who's in it |

VFalcone 11/02/23 6:19:16 PM #141 | lolife67 posted... Correct. And DC disproves VFalcone's point because even with some of the most recognizable superheroes in Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman, they still failed.DC is a special case though because their movies were just straight bad. Their goodwill was burned after their third movie lol. DCEU had Man of Steel and Wonder Woman that both did well. Then BvS came out, then JL... and it was a wrap. DCEU died before it could start because the movies were too bad and the public won't forgive that. |

VFalcone 11/02/23 4:39:57 PM #126 | lolife67 posted... This is completely false. The characters the MCU started with were NOT A-listers at all. The were maybe B-list, at best. You're revising history. TheDurinator posted... Marvel's A-listers pre-MCU were Spidey and the X-Men and that's it. The Hulk and Fantastic Four were the closest to them, and out of all of these they only had the rights to Hulk. Cap, Iron Man, Black Panther, etc were B-tier. It worked out because the Avengers were a long-running team and they had the rights to the main members, but the MCU would have probably played out very differently if Marvel had access to Spidey and the X-Men from the beginning.The main Avengers cast is considered B-tier...? Since when? X-Men, Spiderverse, Fantastic Four, and Avengers are all people even know about |

VFalcone 11/02/23 4:33:11 PM #107 | Monster Hunter World and Rise are both historic games but Capcom turned the microtransaction scale up from 7 to 15 in Rise. World had hundreds of dollars with of action figure and weapon trinket DLCs. Basically stuff no one ever cared about. With Rise, they changed it and stuffed the store with HUNDREDS of dollars worth of armor, weapon, palico/palamute armor, hairstyle, make-up, music, voice and furniture DLC. For the first time ever, they introduced paid armor and weapon skins to a store, some of which were literally just given as in-game rewards in Monster Hunter World, and went balls-deep with it. No MH game has ever asked you to pay money for armor or weapon skins. You can scroll through Rise's paid DLC page for a full minute before reaching the end. And the worst part? The Rise fanbase ate that shit up. The next MH will probably be worse because of it now. |

VFalcone 11/02/23 4:10:14 PM #123 | Marvel is failing because it's making a crap load of movies and relevant TV shows about a bunch of characters nobody cares about. People aren't going to fill the theaters to see Moon Knight or Miss Marvel. Who even are they? MCU is done for. They already used Ironman, Captain America, Hulk, Black Widow, Black Panther, and Spider-Man. The rest like Thor, Doctor Strange and Ant-Man are clinging on for dear life with only GoG standing on its feet. The populace is very simple-minded. Marvel was successful because it was about the A-listers. People want to see stuff about the big-time A-listers. And yes, the actors playing them also matter. The intended replacements for the main A-team will never be accepted by the populace. Ever. Captain America, Hulk, Black Widow, Black Panther, Thor, Spider-Man, etc., will always beat out the nobodies every single time. All they have left is X-Menverse and Fantastic Four. Or maybe try to milk the multiverse even more and bring in Miles Morales |

You think if I was alive back then that I would've voted for the politicians who supported that? I got news for you. Black people aren't alive today because all politicians supported the deaths of black people. EDIT: Ah right I wouldn't have been able to vote anyway. But that's besides the point Tyranthraxus posted... That is a diminutive take on what Biden is doing. He's been coordinating with the IDF to delay invasions and de-escalate and to try to get hostage negotiations & release. He hasn't cut funding but it's not like he's giving the thumbs up saying "kill em all!" or anything.He's sending Israel millions of dollars and diverted military supplies from Ukraine to Israel so yes, he is supporting the deaths of Palestinians. That's what that money and those guns and rockets will be used for. You can't speak out of both sides of your mouth and try to delay an invasion while also feeding the superior military power that's killing literally thousands of civilians more military power. Meanwhile those supplies are being sent away from Ukraine who is already trying to defend itself from its murderer. |

I'm not going to doom every LGBTQ person in America because our government is war-happy abroad.I've never heard of any Democrats openly support and fund the genocides of LGBT people somewhere on national TV, that's for sure. I'll tell you right now, if something like this was happening with black people or Native Americans where a Democrat president (and Republican too) was supporting it, voting for them would be the hardest political and emotional battle of my life. How could I, in good conscience, vote for someone who I know supports killing my own people? This is the battle of demons the muslim people are likely facing right now as we approach day 26 of the war. Could they come to terms within a year? Maybe...... but don't expect them to just cast it aside now. |

I'm sure those of my fellow queer people who take a stand on Biden not having their back will feel real smug when the party that thinks they are rapist pedophiles that need to disappear from society takes over instead. That will teach Biden and our two-party system!This is a hypothetical that will never happen (sure hope so), so bear with me here: Some crazy event happens where LGBT people in another country did an attack for some reason and the government of that country decided to genocide all of the LGBT people in response, then Joe Biden/Democrat president publicly pledges unwavering support for said government and sends funding and weapons so they can continue to kill more and more LGBT people, on purpose. When questioned, he just says "that's just what happens". As an LGBT person, do you vote for him? |

Like, does anyone actually think the GOP is going to approach the issue with more nuance than Biden did? McMarbles posted... Id think the incentive would be to not have a President whos on-record wanting to deport you. Tyranthraxus posted... The argument isn't "Trump is worse" as much as it is "Trump will literally deport you or put you in an internment camp" hockeybub89 posted... But the alternative is Trump and a Republican takeover, so I am obligated to vote for Biden and I would tell any other LGBTQ person that they have to do the same.All of you just proved my point in record time though. If I were a Muslim who has explicitly decided I don't want to vote for Biden right now because he essentially supports the murder of thousands of my fellow Muslims (keep in mind that I already refuse to vote Trump), no one has given me any reason to actually forgive Biden and VOTE for him instead of just not voting at all. |
Topic | Time Magazine: Biden support from Arab Americans plummets |
VFalcone 11/01/23 9:46:03 AM #201 | Instead of yelling at Muslim voters about how bad Trump could be, Democrats should be reaching out to them giving them reasons why they should vote blue instead. This whole topic has been talking about how scary it would be to vote for Trump without actually giving any perks for voting for Biden. Put yourself in a Muslim's shoes. Simply not voting Trump isn't a vote for Biden, it only empowers Trump. If Muslims don't want to vote Democrat/Biden because pro-Israel, Democrats need to make them want to vote for Democrats, and to do that, they need to convince those voters that Biden is the right one for them specifically. For Muslims, "vote blue no matter who" and "Trump is worse" offers no incentives for them specifically. They'd just not vote at all. |
