10 years after Zod’s snapped neck, Martha, “some kinda Suicide Squad”, CGI moustache, rennouncing your wish, the hiearchy of power changing, and Speed Force PS1 graphics, the DC Extended Universe finally comes to a close. And it ends the same way it started - with a Rotten score....
Hey, it’s not as if they could have involved the people who did the animated series or the Arrowverse TV series, both of which have been very successful.
I like the idea in Daniel Suarez’ novel Daemon of an AI (Spoiler) using people as parts of it’s program to achieve certain tasks that it needs hands for in meatspace.
But Hollywood has shown us again and again that the overwhelming force of evil always leaves a small but super-easily accessible hole in their security which allows the good guys to disable it immediately. And since AI is trained on those movies it will do exactly the same thing.
He’s an eldritch shapeshifter, subconsciously transforming into what people believe he should be. Sort of like the Norse gods in Marvel Comics. Until Alladin rubs the lamp, he didn’t exist as a conscious being because nobody was there to think him into being.
So, your brain is basically shutting down the nervous system of your body’s musculature. This prevents you from moving around in your dreams. Otherwise everybody would be sleepwalking, it doesn’t work right for people that are suffering from that. That’s also where dreams of flying or falling come from as well as sleep paralysis, which is basically your brain shutting down your body while you’re still conscious. Just before your body is shut down, the electric pathways of the nervous system of your musculature are discharged, which can manifest itself as a jolt through your body, ironically waking you up again.
Pretty sure that’s Krampus. (Evil counterpart to Saint Nick in Southern German folklore, punishing bad children while Saint Nick is giving presents to the good ones.)
There actually was a guy who wore a buttplug with a metal core in an MRT. The plug shot through his body like a high velocity bullet and was stopped by his sternum. He survived with severe internal injuries and sued the company selling the plug.
You’re in luck, Chris Miller and Phil Lord (LEGO movie) are working on an adaptation with Ryan Gosling set to star. Drew Goddard (The Martian) wrote the screenplay together with Andy Weir himself.
The ages of Alec Guinness and Ewan McGregor pretty much track actually. It’s just that a 63 year old looked a lot older in the 70s. Tom Cruise is 61 now, Keanu Reeves is 59. Ewan McGregor is 52 now and the events of Obi-Wan are about ten years before EP. 4.
Ear cockroaches are actually worse since they are not very good at moving backwards. So once they’re in they don’t have any chance but to burrow ever deeper.
Disney is raking its customers over the coals with a 75% price hike for their annual subscription (originally $80.) People wonder why piracy is on the rise.Multiple commenters are saying I’m off base about the 75% price increase. My payment less than a year ago was $79.99. Here’s the proof.
Flattering angle, professional photographer trying to make him look good, beard hiding signs of aging vs. unflattering angle, paparazzi scum trying to make him look bad, no beard to hide aging.
