that makes things almost filmic
His early books literally started with a visual description of the reader's imagination "camera" gradually focusing on Great A'Tuin, the Disc, whatever region the action was going to happen in, and so on.
Filmic is exactly what he was going for.
From world war II (photoshopped).
I can't find the exact original image, but this appears to be an image of actor Christoph Waltz portraying Standartenführer Hans Landa in Quentin Tarantino's film Inglourious Basterds, photoshopped to make fun of Nintendo's notorious asshattery.
Help! Help! We're being repressed!
in like sg1 which is more realistic to use, we would need aliens to give us the tech, because we would never be able to conceive on our own.
Excuse me, we stole, I mean salvaged, most of that tech by ourselves, and we used it to kick goa'uld ass all over the galaxy (and, to be fair, they had stolen it first).
Sure, some aliens did give us some tech, but only because we saved their scrawny hyper-advanced asses from their own hubris because, unlike them, we could conceive of hitting things with a big stick, or shooting small but fast metal pellets at them using barely controlled explosions (you know what, disregard the metal pellet and controlled explosions part, just throw C4 at the problem until it goes away!).
Damn, I miss that series.
They ain't safe for seven or older people either.
Well, some of it might manage to go out the window.
Most of that will probably hit another building, or a tree, or the ground, or something, and get absorbed (and permitted), but some of it might not hit anything solid and carry on into the atmosphere... where a good part of it will end up hitting a cloud, or a nitrogen atom, or a pigeon... but some might end up in space. And carry on for aeons, into the cosmos.
Same here (I was never one of the cool kids, though).
Meh, just upload a dick pic.
Dude, spoilers.
That's stupidly dangerous. People a) lie, b) are idiots, and c) continuously forget the most obvious things, like where we placed the glasses we're currently wearing. Often all at the same time.
Especially when stressed, for instance when about to get an MRI and being asked embarrassing questions, possibly while being high on whatever drugs they've got you on.
I'd expect them to at least use metal detectors.
Wouldn't want a doctor or nurse to get a prince Albert to the eye just because the patient was too embarrassed to mention it.
Yeah, Gunn went with the old Twilight Zone plot, but the message got damaged in the crash so Clark thought “to serve man” meant to be helpful, and never learnt to cook.
(Plus, after growing up with the best versions of Ma and Pa Kent I've ever seen he wouldn't for a second have accepted the real message and he'd still have acted exactly the same way as he did when he believed it told him to help; Lara and Jor-El might be his biological parents, but his real parents, the ones who educated him, were always the Kents.)
Dragon Ball Z.
The plot of Dragon Ball is Journey to the West / boobs are fun / Toriyama forgot, let's do fights.
