Its not difficult.

If a game developer was charging for better download speeds, AND they increased their pricing it would be pandemonium.

The understanding or grace given that theyre hosting hundreds of thousands of mods and its not free to run a website would be thrown out the window. Big game developers bad, and everything they do is a cash grab for us poor consumers.

Yeah and the cooking process kills it as long as its freshly ground. Any butcher, any chef, any pit master, will tell you freshly ground beef is safe at medium rare.

But even for the pre-packed stuff, a medium or medium well burger isnt going to hurt you at least 9 out of 10 times so anyone screeching about it is just hilarious to me.

Continues to laugh in Canadian.

Also, I tried a "pink" burger last year and it was fucking disgusting. My mind couldn't get over the texture, it felt wrong.

Nah. Freshly ground beef is food safe at medium rare. It only has to be taken to well done when its sat in a package after being ground so bacteria has time to grow.

It's a little bit more than that.

"Hamburger, obviously, is made up of ground meat, and so any bacteria that was present on the surface of the cut of meat before it was ground can be introduced into the center of the hamburger patty."
But she says its different with steak. "If a steak is contaminated with a bacteria, it would usually be on the surface of the steak, so heating the surface of the steak to a high temperature is usually enough to kill off any bacteria that may be there."

I like my burgers well done too, but why compare chicken with beef? They aren't even remotely the same as far as food safety is concerned.

Its a fair comparison in my mind, its not a difference of chicken being more dangerous, to me its just as nasty. I wouldnt dream of serving or eating a raw burger.

This topic is about burgers but good call, other food cultures can be gross too and I wouldn't eat any one of those dishes.

In Canada it's very simple. You just order a burger. They don't ask you how you want it done because that's an asinine question, the same way they wouldn't ask you how you wanted your chicken done.

It's not CGI. Nolan got permission to rip apart and drop a plane into the Scotland mountains. The ziplining is real too. Enormous amount of choreography training necessary. To do the interior shots they built a simulator. To call TDKR "phoned in" is basically blasphemous. That's what I'm saying.

And like I said, it has the skeleton of a great movie. These are extremely fantastic bones to build an excellent movie on...but they did not do that. The end result of the dialogue and acting here ruins this scene for me.

Like yes TDKR is flawed and not as good as TDK but people pretend it ruined their lives or something.

Calm down.

First, I'm one of the biggest defenders of any media, most people know me for this. I try to enjoy things regardless. But some things are indefensible.

All I described it as "phoned in" because that's exactly what it is. It has the skeleton of a great movie, and after making 2 really good Batman movies, Nolan should have knocked this one out of the park. Instead, we get very wooden performances, extremely baffling dialogue and line delivery. Horribly executed fight sequences and a slew of other problems.

https://youtu.be/dzDe90df4eo?si=k0Kc-qTA8wxTadZR

I mean this clip alone from the OP has enough examples of all of those things. Yeah a person can nitpick the slapstick comedy fighting in the background. But even just the blocking of the characters is a baffling choice. The way Batman and Bane are standing and the position of the camera, this feels like a 16 year olds home movie of Batman. Not Christopher fucking Nolan's third entry into a billion dollar, beloved Batman franchise. It feels extremely "cheap" like there's zero heart that went into this film.

https://youtu.be/arty9MuqEg0?si=3P4d9jfa8BZOFx0f

And this scene that you linked. The dialogue in this is NOTORIOUSLY awkard.

Bane : It doesn't matter who we are, what matters is our plan.
[the Agent removes the hood]
Bane : No one cared who I was until I put on the mask.
CIA Agent : If I pull that off, would you die?
Bane : It would be extremely painful.
CIA Agent : You're a big guy!
Bane : For you.

None of these lines flow together, most of it doesn't make sense, and it ends up so disjointed and awkward. It's so close to something awesome. "No one cared who I was until I put on the mask" has become an iconic line and taken out of context it's fantastic. But watch the damn scene. It's horrible. it's so undeserved in this scene because...no one fucking asked? Like why couldn't the agent just say something acknowledge the mask to warrant this response? Such weird choices here.

And "It would be extremely Painful...for you" would be another great line with great delivery, but wtf is "You're a big guy" even doing cutting through the middle of that dialogue?? Horrible line, and ruins it completely.

To me it's cleearly Tom Hardy ADR'd waaay different lines than the scene they shot and the end result is a crap shoot.

I think the whole movie suffers from a combination of Nolan's heart wasn't in this one, and the editing team slapped together a first draft that somehow made it to theatres. Some better editing and maybe a couple reshoots could have saved it.

But unfortunately, the end product we got was phoned the fuck in.

imho
