Although the funny thing is audience participation has more effect on wrestling outcomes than any spectator sports. If a wrestler gets a good response from the fans, they will win more matches.

The Scouring of the Shire should have been removed from the book too. Does nothing for the story and kills the ending. His books have so much unnecessary fluff and distracting crap in them, any decent editor could take a hatchet to them and lose nothing.

Rowling usually maintains pretty tight control over her work

I've heard conflicting stories on this. Every author I know gives up all creative control when they license their work. This is required by the studios, they don't make deals with authors who try to retain control. They may make a separate deal for the author to write the screenplay but even this doesn't give control over casting or other production.

Good studios will try to work with the author if they are helping the project. The author can often prove useful in visualizing characters, scenes, settings, etc. where the text is lacking. Rowling is said to have demanded the films include all British cast, to what extent the studio was obligated to listen or simply agreed with her idea is unclear. Rowling is rare in that her name was a marketing asset so having her directly involved in the project was seen as a benefit.

What's really dumb about these characters is, if at least you made them hot babes they might have pushed a few sales. Storm is a well liked character. But they can't even do that. They want to make the characters anti-white AND ugly.

It's really just "Respect for the ballot box." Once people realize elections are kayfabe, the only option left is violence.

Yep. How do you give away $150 million dollars? Who do you give it to? Who distributes it? The answer is NGOs, hilariously named as they are fully staffed and organized by the government.

This is patronage. The system rewarding its friends and punishing its enemies. Nothing more.

Kamala very unlikely to control any of this. The aipac lobby told her they were taking the money, announce whatever you want. The money is gone though.

Seems to be a commie/female thing, to think jobs exist to give you money and prestige, not to provide a service of value to an employer.

You can be arrested just for making a woman "feel" unsafe. The police response is to remove the man by default. They can also withhold the reason for the arrest, leaving the man with no response but to blame the woman (often they are threatened with charges themselves if they don't turn their husband in.)

Just remember that anyone who tries to position themselves as "above the culture war" is really fighting for one side of it, but denying it. No exceptions.

I never saw the first on the basis that a Joker origin story is a fundamental misreading the character (and villain origin stories are universally evil apologia). Whatever cultural baggage it was trying to throw out there certainly never helped matters.

Recently Bibi was bragging "Iran will soon be free" so yeah, false flag maybe?

They want war so bad they'll blow up skycrapers to get it....

MGS 3 is one of my top 5 favorite games of all time, if they altered the gameplay or re cast any major characters I.wouldnt touch it. A graphical upgrade for modern consoles is nice though, even I have to admit The old game has a murky palette and barely functional lip syncing. I also hate pausing and going into a menu to change camo.

The only real remake was the 3ds one and that was a platform port, not some kind of soulless cash grab.

It's a scene for scene remake with all the original voice acting and badly needed qol like quick switching camo sets. You can even play with the original top down camera.

So much of the story and dialogue would make no sense if Eva had no sex appeal. We're just lucky they're using the original voice recordings.

Yep. The best case scenario of women in the workforce is a lesser competent man who talks too much and gets sick more often. Why bother.

I remember they said KCD should have black people because African mercenaries would have passed through and raped a bunch of women.

I recall critics complaining about the blatant feminism propaganda in Robin Hood Prince of Thieves.

The rot goes deep.

Unowned women will always wander into dangerous lands hoping for strong men to take possession of them.
