Avid gamer and lover of anime. Kallipygos is my figure of faith. Also, I’m a tree.
I don’t disagree with you. What I’m saying is that I prefer movies not to end on a huge cliff hanger, I feel as though we are going to see a lot of movies be cancelled in the near future due to the SAG/AFTRA strike, meaning that we are going to have a lot of very incomplete stories.
I gotcha, thanks for letting me know.
Which you’d think would be perfect as a series, give each topic and episode the room it needs to breath.
Okay, it just feels like we’ve started to see a resurgence in this type of film structure because for a while we got a lot of one-offs and trilogies a format that I perfer because there’s no need to watch the next movie to get closure for the last movie you watched. Now it seems that a lot of movies are adopting this big cliffhanger at the end of a story. It may not be rushed, but it’s incomplete.
Of course you’d plan to structure the episodes in a way that made sense to the format.
And what evidence do you have in saying splitting a book into movies is easier than doing so into episodes? Just because there are more episodes than there are movies does not equate to difficulty. If you planned for it, it would make just as much sense as a movie.
Personally I would have been fine with reduced visuals if it meant that they give it space to breath for that worldbuilding in a series format, but to each their own I suppose.
Maybe not, but why not just make it a series at that point? Or end it in a way that has some closure, with potential for a future movie. Like we’ve done for decades.
What is it with movies releasing in two parts nowadays? Saw the same thing with Across the Spiderverse, and I guess the same thing happened to Ninja Turtles, but I haven’t watched that one so I might be wrong. Fast X too from what I hear.
As expected, Pokémon and then CoD primarily. Gamers just wanna catch cool monsters and kill dudes. Kinda messed up tbh but like, whatever.
Maybe it’s for a different talk but bad situations surrounding movies don’t tend to affect my viewing of them. It’s only when it comes to bad social engineering attempts like Hollywood’s recent obsession with blackwashing character’s who are canonically ginger that really make me think twice about watching a film.
Wow, what a different time. All the people on stage were so awkward. It was an interesting watch, thanks for bringing it to my attention. :)
This is a genre I’ve always wanted to like, but have such a hard time enjoying. I mean there are so many beautiful games out there under this umbrella, Hollow Knight, Ender Lillies, Moon Scars, Lost Song.
All of these games have such an amazing atmosphere and I just can’t beat them because I always end up getting lost and never really knowing what the intended path is. That feeling of being lost is so frustrating that I just drop it and move on. Such a shame too, I really liked Ender Lilies.
I wholly agree with you on the patience thing too.
This is pretty dope. Excited to see where this goes.
fair enough.
The quality was shite, but at least it respected the source material.
Yeah fair enough, in some aspects, it’s leagues better than the Netflix one haha
But regardless, the way the Admins were pushing the Moderators around by the end of it is something I just can’t support. I hate bullies.
mad that their entertainment driven by free labor was interrupted
Exactly, my point. These people have such a shallow view point that they can’t stand to have their content interrupted for a few weeks to fight for better online rights. That’s why your platform is currently a burning garbage fire. Enjoy your “potty time” now.
Honestly I imagine a lot of the people fighting against the protests were people paid for by reddit admins to try and sow discourse amongst users. Well, I wonder how that went for them considering the drop in content, and the rising migrations to Lemmy. It sucks because in losing Reddit - the information super highway that it has become - we as a species lose a lot of important information, and a lot of niche questions that wouldn’t be answered otherwise. But that doesn’t mean we can’t ask them again here on Lemmy. 🙂
The Witcher subreddit mods put up a poll about whether or not they should extend their protest (Every post from the start of the protest had been about The Hexer an old poor adaptation of the witcher). I commented that I supported the continued protests, because charging exorbitant prices is unfair to moderators that do what they do for free, and unfair to the 3rd party app developers who gain no income from developing their apps. Someone came at me with this argument;
buddy i work 48 hours a fucking week i’m just trying to enjoy and discuss things about fandoms i enjoy while i’m taking a shit. i could care less about these protests, all it’s doing is fucking up my potty time
Like, from a self-centered point of view, how dense do you have to be to not understand that moderators not having access to their tools is going to “fuck up your potty time”.
well I called him;
Self centered, selfish and uncaring.
I mean seriously, have some common decency to fight for the platform you browse daily. I just don’t get some people, really. Well regardless, Lemmy has been a much better place, though I can’t imagine that’ll last forever.
I think they’re perfect 😍
People don’t typically do dragons well in general tbh. Even when dragons are secondary to the plot, opting for wyverns the no-armed beasts and calling them dragons. It sort of hurts me inside.
But I agree I want more genuine dragons in my media.
(Side note, I haven’t read the OP as to not spoil myself so for all I know OP could be arguing the same thing so sorry for the redundant point if that’s the case.)
