I meant during the events of the Karate Kid movies, or sometime afterwards.

like, Terry Silver apparently ended up being this terrible force in Daniel's life, and had some presence in the community, but Johnny was totally ignorant of him.

Johnny doesn't even know how to use the internet. Like, at all. You're surprised he's oblivious?

My problem with it is purely semantical.

Yes, that's why it's a silly complaint lol

Rapid99 posted...

They should have a grasp on how memories work in relation to everything else that proves you exist, yes.

What does that have to do with magic that re-writes reality, exactly?

I didn't know this was something people actually questioned.

Rapid99 posted...

I already figured the writers had no grasp of the term "memory spell" because even the first one wouldn't have erased the hard drives upon hard drives filled with 4K press coverage of Peter Parker=Neighborhood Menance.

I love how this post implies magic is somehow a real world science to have a "grasp on" to begin with.

Yeah, bud, that's kind of how non-miniseries television works.

Lol this. I'm not sure why this is such a shocker?

His plan was to literally give the means for a oppressed people to get their freedom.

Eh, he wanted to kill not just the people in charge but also their families. It went a bit beyond simply freeing oppressed people.

This is my favorite sci-fi series. I love everything about it.

So is it universally agreed that the game sucks compared to the first one or just some peoples opinions?

It's just some people's opinions. Both games are rated about the same by objective measurements. Which you prefer is completely subjective.

Did I make a mistake in what I wrote? Because that's what I'm trying to say myself.

Lol no, I was agreeing with you because you said "Maybe I'm talking out my ass." I wanted you to know that you were correct in your observation.

Anyways, what I loved about Falcon/Winter Soldier was near the end when Bucky straight up says that neither he nor Cap really thought about any racial implications when Steve passed the shield/mantle onto Sam, because they were both from a different time. It didn't say they were racist, but it also didn't say that they magically were paragons of race equality.

No, that was the point. Even though they weren't racist themselves, they were still out of touch with the idea of what "America" means to black Americans. Which is completely understandable.

Kevin Feige

YOU DONE FUCKED UP

What does he have to do with this show?

Maze_ posted...

Boo

This is a boring answer. Of course they can write him anyway but it's about what you think based on how you view the character/your knowledge of him.

Your view of the character should be based on how they write him, no?

Doom_Art posted...

Like yeah that's the goal, but it's not as though it's something you can control

Eh, it kinda is. What they really mean is when those thoughts come into your head, you need to make a conscious effort to think of/do something else.

And this is s*** advice. Regardless of what is going on with her, you stay a good person.

Ignoring someone doesn't make you a bad person.

Nobody intelligent wants hover cars.

Captain America doesn't believe in propaganda. That's literally the opposite of what he stands for, actually. He believes in the ideals of America, not the reality/government.

So he'd be perfectly fine with LGBTQ people, wouldn't think people should smoke pot recreationally but wouldn't think it should be criminalized. He'd also understand the medicinal purposes and think it should be used that way.

He'd be Pro-Choice since he believes in personal freedoms.

Is she active elsewhere? Because she could be sick and non-responsive.

The dc movies are not in theaters though. That is part of why it is more low key

That wouldn't matter. Into the Spider-verse is very popular and was well received but only made about $375 million

Funkydog posted...

Only a few people are actually doing this. Most are fully aware it is unhealthy, they just don't want you screaming FAT FUCKING SLOB at them and making them feel worse and even less able to help themselves.

Exactly. This topic is disingenuous. Nobody really gets upset at people saying being overweight can be unhealthy. But that's not usually how it goes. What people get upset at is folks being a-holes and insulting, which is how it usually goes.

It's a Cobra Kai reference.

Thats still a plot hole.

How so?

imagine if robby gets back at daniel san by having a threesome with his wife and sam

No.

DarthAragorn posted...

Miyagi and Daniel's wife are basically the only sane people in the entire franchise lol

Miguel's mom too I guess

I LOVE Daniel's wife! She's the only adult in the whole show and the only one who seems to see how stupid this whole thing is.

ScazarMeltex posted...

One of my favorite parts is when SPOILERS Miyagi beats the f*** out of crease, then honks his nose.
Daniel is like "Holy s*** man you could have killed him" and Miyagi says "yeah" and Daniel asks him "why didn't you?"
Like wtf dude, maybe Miyagi doesn't want to do 25 to life over a dispute in the parking lot of a teenage Karate tournament.

Hahahaha! Exactly. Why would he? Why are you even questioning it? Ah, the 80s lol

ScazarMeltex posted...

minus the fact that the nephew decides to try and murder Daniel in front of a crowd of people.

They do seem to jump to murder very quickly in this series, don't they?

DarthAragorn posted...

Terry Silver is a whole ass other level though

I mean, sending a teen kill squad after a teenage girl is pretty out there lol but yes, Terry's over the top too

DarthAragorn posted...

I'm like 20 minutes in and this is ridiculous, makes Cobra Kai look completely sane

dude's just dumping waste in third world countries while also looking to ruin the life of a teenage boy he's never met because his friend asked him to

Nothing about this series really makes sense lol

Daniel agreed to settle a dispute via a teen karate tournament with a man who sent kids to attack his daughter in their home. Instead of beating the crap out of him right then and there.

SauI_Goodman posted...

The one with hillary swank? It was ok for what it was.

That's the Next Karate Kid (the 4th one.)

Part 3 is the one with Terry Silver and Mike Barnes.

Colonization and murder, mostly.

Kreese, obviously.

You don't know what you're talking about.

It is one thing to attack people in another country to promote the interests of your own. It is another to expect them to be entirely okay with bombing their own people, without dissent.

Just the fact that you would say they would "definitely" do it because it is "literally their job" demonstrates how out of touch you are. If you tell soldiers to attack their home states, the likely response you'll get is "Shit, no."

I like how you're disagreeing with me but not the person I originally replied to, who basically said the same thing lol

And if you tell soldiers to do that without provocation, sure. But if you tell soldiers to engage violent enemy combatants, who just happen to live in those states, they'd likely be fine with that. Nobody's talking about them indiscriminately dropping bombs on their home towns smh. That's a strawman you made up.

Esrac posted...

You're making a big assumption about how easily you think military personnel will be to bomb their family, friends, and neighbors from their home towns.

Not really? By that logic, they wouldn't be willing to bomb anywhere since people come from all walks of life in the military and the initial post I responded to is also wrong.

You're also assuming that the places they bomb will all be inhabited by people they know personally and/or even like

yemmy posted...

Do you think the military/defense staff of the south are gonna bomb their own people?

If those people are a threat to the U.S? Definitely. That's literally their job.

yemmy posted...

Where do you think these drones and missiles are located? Huntsville, Alabama. Houston, Texas.

Also California, Hawaii and Washington, D.C.

yemmy posted...

I thought we were talking a full scale "Civil War 2", like with Generals and s***.

Even then, most of the military personnel will be more loyal to the government than insurrectionists.
