https://vxtwitter.com/DiscussingFilm/status/1712108882720403676

[trim crown]

Wow

It's almost like using the system everyone has been using for the past 60 years actually works

Who would've guessed

[sage remnant]

[fickle ember]

But wouldn’t it be cool if they made a tv series that takes place at specific time and you need to watch it before you see the movies only to find out they ignored the tv development entirely

[little hull]

Got carried by cast yeah

[wild gazelle]

it's kinda crazy to think about how jim carrey has not been in nearly as many movies as you would think

[brave orbit]

Finished WOT S2

Great finale

[leaden depot]

[tawny parcel]

how the hell did it take em this long to figure that out 😭

[brave orbit]

@modern lichen

[modern lichen]

RTD bringing back the Avengers to save Dr Who

[modern lichen]

Too bad iPlayer sucks balls

[proud fiber]

Saw vivre sa vie

the commentary makes note that the cinematography is "real" rather than "realistic"

which, yeah, makes a lot of it visually dreary

if not dull

[sage remnant]

@modern lichen

SO GOOOOOOOOD

[modern lichen]

Nice

[glacial jetty]

is it out??

[sage remnant]

Nah

[modern lichen]

It's gonna be out in a few hours

Today's the release date

[glacial jetty]

nice

[scenic terrace]

Haunting of hill house was pretty cool, one of the few #western-series I’ve actually watched

Might have to check this out

[brave orbit]

Watch doctor who

Eejit

[scenic terrace]

Too long

[brave orbit]

Just watch the first 4 seasons

[scenic terrace]

The wire is probably the only #western-series other than game of thrones that I’ve been able to stomach more than 2 seasons of in the past decade

[brave orbit]

Adam, i beg you

You would love it 😭

[modern lichen]

Watch Mr Robot, Adam, 4 seasons done and dusted

[sage remnant]

He wouldn't

[modern lichen]

I really don't think he would like Dr Who yeah

[modern lichen]

@glacial jetty @sage remnant fall of the house of usher is out

[sage remnant]

[young compass]

usher?

[sage remnant]

The EA Poe short story one Juba

By Mike Flanagan

Dude can finally start The Dark Tower adaptation properly now

[modern lichen]

rob zombie halloween on a rewatch was meh

hopefully i like the second one better

i remember not liking it

[leaden depot]

I watched the OG movie with Vincent Price

[outer tulip]

Watch Shadow and Bone on Netflix

You’ll like it

[scenic terrace]

I watched s1 when it released and I did like it. Now I’m too lazy to rewatch season 1 so that I can watch s2

[sage remnant]

https://fxtwitter.com/gollancz/status/1712422191579435514?t=9hx7Q3CC_KyLfneo3WwPeA&s=19

@scenic frost this looks interesting

https://vxtwitter.com/FilmUpdates/status/1712372845517377992?t=8cArCqcj6QELUgu9lk3uGw&s=19

Wtf

[modern lichen]

yeah, massive cunts

[scenic frost]

This is right up my alley

[sage remnant]

Same

God so many fucking amazing books coming out soon

😭

[scenic frost]

Tbh the mc in this one sounds like Naruto/Kingkiller/Night Angel character names || shikamaru, kvothe and the guy from Night Angel rolled into one ||

[sage remnant]

Night angle as in Brent Week's other series?

[scenic frost]

Yeah

Night Angel || dude also had a "everyone I knew got killed so I am gonna become an assassin" origin story ||

Night Angel || or something along those lines ||

Night Angel || was also a part of like the shittiest part of the city ||

Night Angel || the typical rogue/assassin origin sob story ||

[sage remnant]

True

[scenic frost]

The first character I thought of when I read this blurb was Kvothe so I am hoping this series doesn't end up the Kingkiller way

[sage remnant]

Or just end soon...

[scenic frost]

With my grandkids finally buying the final book of the series and placing it next to my pic at my funeral

[sage remnant]

Man I can't wait for you to start Sword of Kaigan...

[scenic frost]

I am busy tho

Gonna be a while

[sage remnant]

The world there is such a fun one

[scenic frost]

Not making much progress on Mort even

Can probably get an hour or so this weekend but that's about it

[sage remnant]

It's || Alternate Sengoku period-ish, with modern technology while still following traditional lifestyle || Sword of Kaigan's type of world spoilers...

Idk if this sort of thing is spoiler for you...

[scenic frost]

Sounds fun

Nah I basically already know that much about any book before I even start

[sage remnant]

Surely not like one of my other favorite series which most people hate....

[scenic frost]

I can't recall the name if you have talked to me about it

Old people problems

[sage remnant]

It's the manga I Talk about thr most other than OP

🏃‍♂️

[scenic frost]

Still not enough

[sage remnant]

But ye unlike that series the explaination for the worldbuilding stuff except one thing is done well

[scenic frost]

Unless you mean Naruto

[brave orbit]

The manga I talk about the most other than OP is...

nothing

[sage remnant]

Ye aka

[brave orbit]

I don't read any other manga nowadays

[scenic frost]

Well you are fed so your opinions are invalid by default anyways

[brave orbit]

Die

[sage remnant]

Well not exactly but close to that

I just like my ||anachronistic-esque || settings.

Sword of Kaigen

[scenic frost]

I am gonna try a steampunk setting sometime when I am bored of my main tbr

[sage remnant]

The only thing it fails in || is lack of guns which isn't explained || Super sword of kaigan spoilers

Why is discord glitching

[scenic frost]

Haven't really read steampunk much except like one or two books maybe I will like it

[sage remnant]

LoTM...

[scenic frost]

Too big

Way too big

I am not starting a multi million word book for an experiment

[sage remnant]

Kek

I don't think I have read that much steampunk either

[modern lichen]

@feral kettle rewatched the rob zombie halloween films, did not like the first one, liked the second one better than the first one

[feral kettle]

i like the second one more but theyre both pretty great

Second one is an all timer i think

did you see the directors cut of both

[modern lichen]

yeah

i absolutely loathed the first one, digested the second one better

the visual choices and aesthetic actually matched the subject matter

the second one had the fucking dreams of the mother and the horse, made it very silly but it also made the violent scenes a bit more palatable

there were some cool images in the first one though

taking inspo from you and watching the RE films as well, just to see if i like them better now

[feral kettle]

gonna watch retribution tonight hopefully?

thats the one (people) say is the best

[modern lichen]

i see

i have no comments to make on those movies tbh

i'm interested in why you like these movies so much tho

maybe this rewatch will open my eyes lol

[feral kettle]

Stylish gonzo action

Need to see the last 2 tho

[modern lichen]

10 minutes into the first one

early 2000s cheese hits hard fr

[feral kettle]

first one is really solid

[modern lichen]

the music and dialogue, i'm crying dude this shit is so 2000s

[sage remnant]

https://collider.com/count-of-monte-cristo-miniseries-cast-sam-claflin/

[modern lichen]

@warm cape ^

[feral kettle]

the credits music lol

[modern lichen]

has been enjoyable so far

[rain mirage]

The Dark Knight Rises ||8/10: The villains ain't that good, the fight scenes ain't good, pacing wasn't that good but still a very good movie and entertaining.||

[white smelt]

You son of a gun

Welcome back

[fickle ember]

Wanze is back

[stiff willow]

Can someone suggest some old time show with taverns with food and wines with tales and mysteries, both facts and fiction
If u know wat vibes i mean.
Already watched lotr

[modern lichen]

you mean adventure?

fantasy adventure shows

or movies

try "his dark materials"

[stiff willow]

Many thanks

[modern lichen]

"pan's labyrinth" for movies

[stiff willow]

Oh i meant those fun tavern tales but mystery stirring type of vibes just a mood from the chat in also manga channel

[modern lichen]

pan's labyrinth is a dark twisted fairytale

why dont you check out "legend of vox machina" @stiff willow

animated but high fantasy like LOTR

if you like the show i can pitch something to you related to it

[stiff willow]

Oh
Its a new one, looks interesting, it's been too long since I tried some western animation anyways.

Ncuti's theme

[glacial jetty]

y'know what

im not gonna watch that

i wanna hear it in action first

nvm i caved

[brave orbit]

That new theme is so fucking good

and the fifteenth doctor theme sounds like murray gold x old school mecha soundtrack lmao

[glacial jetty]

i love it

[brave orbit]

also they revealed it officially so dw

there was a concert

also weirdly military themed

[glacial jetty]

i was thinking it does give kind of marching band vibes

but i dig it

[brave orbit]

yea

they also played ruby's theme

not sure if they posted anywhere tho

Also part of I am the doctor at the end wtf

1 month left

https://vxtwitter.com/TheWhoDivision/status/1712535339879784957

Ruby's theme is so fucking cool

what the fuck

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m001r92n

This is the full concert

all showrunners were there

@glacial jetty

if you wanna listen

1:32:00 is when Ruby's theme plays

Welcome back to you too

[sage remnant]

I was thinking you were in like book 5 or smth

[modern lichen]

@feral kettle apocalypse and extinction were horrible

extinction was better than apocalypse tho

back to pws anderson with afterlife, i hope i gets better

[brave orbit]

https://youtu.be/7nN6wai4PQg?si=0qNzfQkBmBfYEvGG

❤️

[feral kettle]

Yea those are a bit poorly directed

[tidal tendon]

Overestimating my capabilities here 😭

[sage remnant]

😭

I remembered that it was Bran who was in book 5

Watching the series too Fenton?

[runic eagle]

jojos

[modern lichen]

i was about to rewatch army of shadows by melville but these fucking movies killed all the mood for watching anything else today LOL

[feral kettle]

it happens

ill probably finish resident evil tonight then idk whats next

I ordered some john carpenter blu rays hope those come soon

[modern lichen]

have you seen in the mouth of madness

give that a watch next

pure distilled lovecraftian dread

by carpenter

[feral kettle]

No but a theater is showing that one soon i have a ticket

[modern lichen]

so fucking good, dude

the craft and carpenter's writing, magnificent

[feral kettle]

Prince of darkness is my fav

atm

[modern lichen]

also, sam neill

i like prince of darkness too, really good movie

my favorite carpenter has to be the thing tho

[feral kettle]

sam neil is awesome

I havent seen the thing lmao

I also have tickets for that tho

[modern lichen]

oh man you have some great cinema up ahead for you to witness

[feral kettle]

theater doing a lovecrsft series

[modern lichen]

the thing on the big screen too? lucky

nyc life i guess lmao

[feral kettle]

Ya

[modern lichen]

gonna give possession a rewatch soon too but i dont think i am ready for the horror

a bit too much at this point

[feral kettle]

possession is reaaal good

fav sam neil

need to see event horizon

[modern lichen]

event horizon is the best pws anderson film and also entirely bonkers

since you're a pws anderson fan from his supposedly "inferior" films (according to me they're not that good anyway), you'll like the gonzo horror and craft of it

its his most ambitious movie

[feral kettle]

It looks dope i should probably watch before the end of the month

[modern lichen]

yeah, it looks good

its just not for me

[feral kettle]

i ought to give pompeii a watch too

have heard some ppl say its his best

[modern lichen]

i also have somewhat of a dislike for pws anderson for the hell that his productions are

[feral kettle]

it happens

[modern lichen]

i think pompeii is his worst one lol, event horizon is EASILY his best film, followed by some of the RE films, mortal combat and maybe three musketeers

think retribution is my favorite RE film too

i saw that you loved it

[feral kettle]

Its so awesome

saw a bit of speed racer in it

just totally bonkers artificial action

[modern lichen]

god speed racer, what a movie

[feral kettle]

i need to rewatch it its so amazing

[modern lichen]

the way the wachowskis push visual storytelling and editing in speed racer is inspiring

[feral kettle]

have you seen cloud atlas?

[modern lichen]

havent seen anyone come close to the action in it

[feral kettle]

Also up there with the matrix and speed racer imo

[modern lichen]

yeah i have, really like cloud atlas too

wachowskis are so good

[feral kettle]

those are like their 3 definite masterpieces to me

[modern lichen]

yeah true

[feral kettle]

I love the matrix sequels as well

3 moreso than 2 and 4 but theyre all great

[modern lichen]

i like the matrix sequels but the first one was one of the first movies that i saw and was like "HOLY FUCK" at a very young age

made me fall in love with movies

[feral kettle]

the first one is just like a perfect construction

every time i watch it i love it in a new way

[modern lichen]

just one of the most tightly written movies ever, puzzle pieces fit perfectly, an indictment of late stage capitalistic nightmare hellscape

also, keanu, lawrence and carrie are the dynamic trio

[feral kettle]

keanu is def one of my favorite actors

[modern lichen]

he's so good

[feral kettle]

wachowskis prob some of my favorites ever too i watched all of their stuff earlier this year

even have a little bit of love for jupiter ascending

Adore sense8 aswell

[modern lichen]

Jupiter Ascending is just trashy fun, it's one of those "so bad it's good" movies

[feral kettle]

kind of lol

i dont really like eddie redmayne and i think thats like his only interesting performance tho

[modern lichen]

Eddie Redmayne has had better performance but this one is the most crowd pleasing for me, he's just fucking crazy in this one

[feral kettle]

these came in recently, gonna try to go through the fritz lang stuff next month

[modern lichen]

Fritz Lang, my beloved

Pretty nice haul there

[feral kettle]

Yea i love megalopolis but i havent seen any others

Die nibelungen looks awesome

totally my shit

[modern lichen]

Yeah you'd love it

You'll like M too

[feral kettle]

for sure

i have some problems w metropolis but i can look past them bc of the sheer greatness of the craft

works a lot better as an aesthetic object than a political one

[modern lichen]

Perhaps the most explorative form of movement in early cinema is from Lang, dude did things with the camera that is just extraordinary

The one that inherited the same form of economy of camera movement with a balance of extravagance imo is Melville

[feral kettle]

i need to get into melville

[modern lichen]

He'll change your life

[feral kettle]

really into the stoic modern samurai ish stuff

[modern lichen]

Le Samourai, Army of Shadows and Le Cercle Rouge are insanely great films

And even his inferior films are great ones compared to other stock of directors

[feral kettle]

seems to be the case w the greats

next year i want to watch every clint eastwood directed film before his new one

[modern lichen]

I've been reading the ebert Great Movie reviews, special man the way he writes about these movies

His reviews for Melville films got me into the mood to rewatch his films

[feral kettle]

Hes great, even when i disagree with his takes

just a great writer

[modern lichen]

I made my dad watch Le Cercle Rouge with me, one of the most memorable experiences watching a movie

[feral kettle]

🫡

[modern lichen]

Just seeing him rapt with attention and the discussion after

[feral kettle]

thats whats up

bunch of movies i need to show my dad bc hes the one who got me into movies

[modern lichen]

Films i can't live without, man

Yeah, my parents got me into movies as well

I was watching Mayabazar yesterday with my friend who's watching it for the first time and he stopped halfway through due to time and circumstances but he is loving it so much, I love seeing the enjoyment from a new pair of eyes

[feral kettle]

awesome showing ur friends the GOAT films for the first time

[modern lichen]

Yeah he's also a cinephile but because he doesn't speak the language I do well enough he didn't watch it so far

I help with some language quirks and references

[feral kettle]

everything ill try to watch by the end of the month but i doubt ill get to em all

[modern lichen]

that's a good selection of films

try getting as much as you can, yeah

300 movies on my watchlist

that's a decent number

[modern lichen]

yeah but most of mine are upcoming ones

[feral kettle]

def couldve gone olderr but its not like i cant just watch those another time

what are you most anticipating rn?

[crimson lance]

Think i got the most impressive watchlist here

[modern lichen]

hm that's a tough question lol

immediately.. hm let me see

give a me a minute

what's your letterboxd handle, will

[modern lichen]

i'll give a follow

[crimson lance]

Cant even remember why half the things on my watch list are there

[feral kettle]

you just follow 2 film twitter people

[modern lichen]

i think its nosferatu @feral kettle, something that immediately grabbed my attention as i was going through my watchlist

[feral kettle]

Ah

a bit excited ror that not as much as i wouldve been like a year or two ago

[modern lichen]

just off the basis of vibes

what about you

[feral kettle]

uhhh

Rebel Moon probably

Megalopolis

[leaden depot]

This is up to the end of the 1960s

[feral kettle]

Way of the wind

ferrari

[modern lichen]

past lives was the most anticipated i was for a movie but i watched it and it fucking destroyed me

this year

[feral kettle]

those 4 the big ones prob

[modern lichen]

made me write a whole essay about it

[crimson lance]

i follow them on twitter theyre cool

No one mentioning killer of the flower moons, and it comes out in like 6 days

shameful worldf

[modern lichen]

that one is obvious since its coming out in like 10 days or less

i recommend you all watch past lives btw

[feral kettle]

yea that ones a little obvious

i should buy tickets tho

[crimson lance]

I tried seeing that but missed the window at my theater

[modern lichen]

skill issue mayhaps

[feral kettle]

i forgot about it

[crimson lance]

I didnt know about it until its window passed i think

[modern lichen]

i heard the new exorcist movie was ass

lmfao

david gordon green shitting on all the goodwill he received with his earlier great films

[crimson lance]

fuck i missed the window for stop making sense too

I was going to go like 3 days ago but got lazy

[modern lichen]

maybe its more stupidity than laziness

[crimson lance]

Might just have to see Flower moon twice to use my A list sub properly

aint shit else to see right now

[feral kettle]

stop making sense was fun

[feral kettle]

see it three times

maybe more

[crimson lance]

it looks reallly fun from the clips yeah

I saw a video of him praticing his dancing routine and its so cool

[modern lichen]

stop making sense is one of the most joyous movies ever made

it just puts a smile on my face

hard not to smile watching even a clip

[feral kettle]

great music great movie

[modern lichen]

cinema is such an incredible medium

[crimson lance]

even amc is using the one still

[steel shale]

decent movie

Moonrise Kingdom ||it was cute and quirky, and being my second wes anderson movie it was obviously just great to look at, but it felt a little lacking plot and character wise ||

out of the whole two I've seen I prefer Fantastic Mr Fox

[white smelt]

If you’re on a Wes Anderson binge you should watch bottle rocket

Critical Role C1 ep 48 ||Vex shooting Scanlan in the fucking neck has got to be peak Critical Role content ||

[final cedar]

Finished The fall of the house of Usher on Netflix and I thought it was fantastic. Loved the storytelling, the mysteries like ||the character Verna||, it had me guessing what was really going on, the show had few jumpscares but it wasn't scary, it is quite violent though. Performances were great as well. Modern setting with ||parallels to Purdue pharma|| also worked for me.
This is one of the best shows of 2023 for me.

[white smelt]

What did you think of Ahsoka

The final episode and the series as a whole

Oh yeah @modern lichen where to start with Bond?

(I tried Casino Royale but god damn it was boring)

Forgive me for this take

[modern lichen]

The movie?

Craig movie?

[sage remnant]

Yeah 🏃‍♂️

[modern lichen]

Oh...

[modern lichen]

gran turismo movie was fun

[white smelt]

lol

The trailer they showed before the spiderverse movie was obscene

Legit the whole movie

[modern lichen]

dont expect much from it, visually it was fun

good racing sequences

[sage remnant]

Recommend some tho 😭

[little hull]

It was awesome

[young compass]

man

I really am picky nowadays

but I LOOOOVED this film

[modern lichen]

yeah its incredible

just such a delicate poem of a film

hit me harder as an asian immigrant with some unique experiences

[young compass]

the only people I've seen complain about it

are uh, a certain type of asian american dude

[modern lichen]

really? what type

[young compass]

people who complain about miscegenation, and completely miss the point

[modern lichen]

fuck

yeah that tracks

[young compass]

everyone else seems to love it

[modern lichen]

its such an insidious thought process to apply to it too

really dude, you're caring about inter-racial relationships? lmfao

but yeah, its shot, written and acted wonderfully

[young compass]

I just like films of that scale, reminds me of why I enjoy film at all

as I often like... would rather read things of greater scope a lot of the time, even allegorical stories

[modern lichen]

i love how celine song shrinks new york's immensity to such a personal scale

[young compass]

just to spend more of my attention on it

yeah for sure, and also just the very nature of the conflict

[modern lichen]

yeah, its two parts of herself just right there in front of her, past and present life interacting, regardless of the cultural barrier

i loved how sequences and shots are mirrored in that devastating climax too

i wrote like a review of it, would be cool if you read it juba

[young compass]

sure

[modern lichen]

https://letterboxd.com/harshaval/film/past-lives/

[young compass]

im really surprised this director wrote episodes for the WOT show lmao

[modern lichen]

have you seen aftersun btw?

similarly devastating film

a look at how memory affects us

[young compass]

I have not

[modern lichen]

just a wonderful film, another debut film as well, try giving it a watch

[modern lichen]

yeah i was surprised by that as well, great transition though lol

[brave orbit]

Which ones

Cuz S1 4-6 were great

[modern lichen]

she was on the writing staff for 8 episodes

[brave orbit]

S2 has been quite good overall but not as good visually imo

[modern lichen]

i feel like both seasons look ass visually

not a lot of ambition there in the visual storytelling

@brave orbit wheel of time s1

she was involved only on season 1

[brave orbit]

Makes sense

Yea I think 4-6 are great TV in general

I love when episodes focus on 1 theme

[modern lichen]

idk havent seen past episode 2 because i got bored

[sage remnant]

Season two apparently was very good except the end stuff

[modern lichen]

i am not gonna watch it either way because i dont have an interest in it

so i wouldnt know

[brave orbit]

WOT S1 ||Ep 4 focuses on the Aes Sedai capturing one strong guy, the episode contains that conflict and has a death of 1 aes sedai. Ep 5 focuses on the internal structure of the tower and how the death of that Aes Sedai affects her warder (a lot about grief and depression). Ep 6 is entirely told from Moraine's POV||

[brave orbit]

The end stuff was great (Wot s2 ||People were just pissed they restructured the final battle visually and logistically||

[sage remnant]

Idk.

I don't care much for adaptations to watch them...

[little hull]

I watched wheel of time s1 and s2 but the end stuff was so meh and the acting felt off, got recommended to read the book but the amazon adaptation is not making it motivating

[modern lichen]

yeah i got bored pretty quick through episode 2

[little hull]

Wot s2 ||Rhand actor guy sucks tbh||

[brave orbit]

You suck

|| https://youtu.be/75SaySGDMoA?si=yRRSJWfXYQbvOXlF || wot s2e8

Peak

[little hull]

Wot s2 ||I dont even read the books but that whole end sequence with rhand was so bad, the horn stuff was cool||

Wot s2 ||The main character really got screwed over ok rhand is the dragon reborn blahblah as the show keeps shoving in your face he still gets 0 character development (also his actor is bad) doesnt even know how to use a sword and he is insufferable||

I mean it looks good

It’s a shame I hate the source material lol

[modern lichen]

I fucking love the graphic novel and the movie

So I'm feasting

[white smelt]

I liked the movie

I think pretty much anything comic booky or manga should just try to replicate the style

Was hoping the Live Action would look like Scott pilgrim

[modern lichen]

It also helps that Edgar Wright has such a great sense of visual grammar and just momentum in his editing

[white smelt]

Indeed

Although I never saw baby driver

[modern lichen]

It's alright, not much in the story department but editing and the way the soundtrack syncs to the editing rhythms is amazing

[little hull]

excited for this

the live action movie was surprisingly good, idk the source material but I'm hyped for this

[dim hedge]

[obsidian basalt]

atla || as far as anyone including the viewers and every character knew, the decision was between foregoing his personal way of life that he learned from his dead masters or letting the entire world die. yangchen explained why the choice should be obvious. it is the correct lesson and it will be a lesson could have to learn if oda wants him to||

[dim hedge]

^ ||change can work but aang is the last single airbender and them being pacifist is their entire culture. I don’t thing aang should sacrifice his humanity for this goal|| alta

[obsidian basalt]

atla || karma this is exactly the thing yangchen explains. no matter the significance of one's personal beliefs they should never come over the safety of the world||

||shuron we both know that solution was a complete copout that was set in place just to dodge aang having to make that choice||

||yes no matter how badly that affected the balance, it's not comparable to there being only one nation, and again aang killing a single person isn't ruining air nomad couture forever lol ||

regardless this is even more relevant for sanji who could've gotten all his friends killed multiple times because of his personal beliefs

[dim hedge]

Alta ||it’s not just aang tho. Aang Carrie’s his entire culture he’s literally the last one. I think the series pushes that killing another just keeps repeating the cycle and not even just the avatar. I think like azula shows that where killing her wouldn’t do like any actual good, or how in Korra amon and the air bender guy both are going about their beliefs in a wrong way. I think passivity is actually smth being pushed a lot|| Korra and alta

[obsidian basalt]

|| the series doesn't push that cause even iroh who's the all time wise good guy pushes for aang to go out there and finish the job||

||and so is every other avatar who are all portrayed as mentors to aang for the entire show||

[dim hedge]

||well I think Iroh also says the same thing to a degree where he says why he can’t kill ozai. I think that does to a degree apply to aang and how he keeps the balance of the world|| alta

[obsidian basalt]

||and again no matter what you say, there's no argument that killing ozai there wasnt the correct thing to do before the bs turtle showed up||

[dim hedge]

||I agree the turtle is BS but I think it’s better then killing ozai throwing off the balance of the world and keeping up a cycle|| Alta

[obsidian basalt]

||yes it's ok to let a culture die for 12 minutes and then return to save the entire world ||

and sometimes you have to make that choice

usually those are the best kind of choices

[dim hedge]

spoilers

[obsidian basalt]

and the ones that make for the best stories

[dim hedge]

I think both can be good

Depends on how the story is being presented

[obsidian basalt]

do you wish for the world to have a ||magical plot turtle that saves anyone from hard choices||

[dim hedge]

I think for Alta tho it’s clear they are pushing for the world we want to happen

The whole point of the ||avatar is they build the ideal world|| Alta

So I think ||aang forsaking his culture and killing off the nomads basically ruins that|| Alta

[obsidian basalt]

I personally think life would be boring without hard choices but sure

[dim hedge]

I think that part was a bit weak

And I do wish aang was forced to make some choice

But I’ll deal with it

[obsidian basalt]

anyway for sanji none of this is relevant

[dim hedge]

[obsidian basalt]

cause he's not keeping any thousand year culture alive

he just needs to man up

[dim hedge]

😭

[scenic terrace]

Wheel of time s2 ep 1 ||Morainne looking like a fucking clown by the end of this episode 🤡 ||

[little hull]

Atla ||I think I would actually been disappointed with the ending if Aang had just killed him. I like that he had a issue to overcome and did without compromising himself||

[modern lichen]

Not gonna look at this Avatar convo for my own sanity

[little hull]

Atla || The lion turtle is probably one of the most classical examples of a deus ex machina I've seen almost anywhere, but one that's done well strange take imo||

Atla ||plus the lion turtle has been written into the story long before they even aired smh, they literally appear in multiple places throughout the story hinting to their existence and are then only revealed later in order to add suspense to the plot||

Atla ||had they been introduced earlier they may not have been as awesome||

[fluid merlin]

What a weird and horrible coincidence

[jolly heath]

Atla ending || thats how i felt, it was deus ex machina/“asspull” but i felt it was the perfect answer to aang’s dilemma of not wanting to kill ozai but needing to stop the invasion so it was quite nice||

[brave orbit]

Whu..

[brave orbit]

???

[little hull]

Atla ending ||Yeah for sure, besides what kind of victory would it be if in exchange Aang had to corrupt his own soul with murder? Aang saved the world in his own uncompromised its perfectly inline with his character||

[sage remnant]

AtLA ending || But that wasn't an answer he could have gotten to with just the journey he went through. Not have the lion turtle, and the answer he would have reached would inevitably be one for which he would have to corrupt his soul.

||

[little hull]

Atla ending ||Cause the entire point of the finale was about doing what needs to be done rather than what one wants. And there are several times where aang goes against his culture, the message of putting the world before selfish desires is a better one||

[sage remnant]

AtLA ending || Aang reached the most proper conclusion which was a result of his own journey. But he didn't have the means to do that so he would have either killed Ozai or letting the whole world die.

Have some more time for the spirit bending go be incorporated properly and be the answer he comes up with be the key to finally enable it or smth. That would have been much better than the lion turtle coming at the right time out of no where ||

[little hull]

Atla ending ||Yeah he was pretty close and fully ready to kill Ozai, he even called upon the avatars for their advice and if it was really the right choice. I think it was till aang talked to the airbender avatar that he eventually made up his mind on how this wasn't the right thing to do and not making the same mistake as past avatars||

[sage remnant]

AtLA ending || And have the lion turtle not show up, it would have been meaningless ||

AtLA ending || The character's core thing depending on a dues ex machina. That's where my problem with it arises ||

[little hull]

Atla ending ||I wouldve wanted ozai to face more harsh consequences but the way he got handled was fine after all he is literally bum status rn with all his bending abilities he was feeling so mighty and powerful with gone and rotting in a cell awaiting death||

[little hull]

Atla ending ||Yeah luckily it's totally not the case here||

[sage remnant]

It is here tho...

[little hull]

[sinful vessel]

https://tenor.com/view/its-peak-peak-fiction-one-piece-gif-26139262

[sage remnant]

AtLA ending || How would he handle Ozai then ||

Just answer me that...

|| Two routes:

1. Kill Ozai
2. Do nothing and let Ozai win (Guilt and tons of casualties)
3. Do nothing and have someone else defeat Ozai (Guilt) ||

[sinful vessel]

Critical Role C1 ep 52 ||Forget the episode. Liam’s Wyrmwood Gaming announcements are peak ||

[little hull]

Atla ending ||Aang would probably just knock him unconscious with a lot more fatalities involved, in the avatar state he absolutely bodied ozai and almost killed him. So i reckon he would do just that without changing who he is as a core also everyone tells aang to kill ozai in the story its literally the most easy way out, aang would just have beat him to the ground till he's unconscious and then have him locked in a cell imprisoned||

Atla ending ||It doesnt change much for what aang thinks except he would definitely have gotten more injuries in battle and hurt||

[sage remnant]

Okay

AtLA ending || see this is much better, right? ||

|| An answer that feels completely earned and not due to a last minute special appearance ||

[little hull]

Atla ending ||I dont think its necessarily better at all lmao the way it ended as rn is already perfect to me, we've seen aang struggle with his ideals and even betray them and how it made him feel and battle them and already come close to killing ozai in battle while going in avatar state and dominating him absolutely, besides it's not like the lion turtle gave aang a ticket to victory they was still struggle involved||

Atla ending ||Idk why the lion turtle is seen as such an issue||

Atla ending ||It didnt change aang in any way||

[fickle ember]

I can’t get behind that mentality, I think 3 is cool too, but I hate 1 2 and 4 so by default it’s terrible

[rich meadow]

Korra || Only bad part about book 1 is the ending||

[fickle ember]

[little hull]

Doesnt atla have a couple of films setup to come in a few yrs

[scenic terrace]

Only s2 of korra is mid

[little hull]

Maybe atla will be mid soon too

[fickle ember]

Korra is everything what’s wrong with this new generation

Symbolized by hating tradition and custom and what not

[scenic terrace]

Korra book 4 ||Toph is in it, excluding it from being mid by default ||

[fickle ember]

Barbaric tbh

[little hull]

Korra ||No aang, must be mid||

[scenic terrace]

Wheel of time s2 ep 2 ending ||Man this faction is apart of the dark one’s forces, what a mid reveal. ||

[rich meadow]

Korra book 4 ||No way you thought Kuvira was a good villain, and the dumbass giant mech, and then the bs resolution to her character where she's like "YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IT WAS LIKE"||

[scenic terrace]

Does any of that counter what I said

[rich meadow]

Yes

however

Korra book 4 ||The Beifongs vs Kuvira was the best part of this season||

Folio never misses

[modern lichen]

[rich meadow]

wish I could afford them

[modern lichen]

one day i will earn enough to get them

[scenic terrace]

Wheel of time s2 ep 3 ||I can’t wait for Nynaeve to enter the third arch, choose not to go back, and return back somehow just because she’s that powerful. If that is what happens evan, I will continue to clown on this show for eternity ||

[rich meadow]

How about you read the books like a real man

[modern lichen]

adam doesnt have that dawg in him unfortunately (neither do i, i am not reading those books)

[rich meadow]

I don't blame people if they don't. It's a huge time commitment and they're far from perfect

[modern lichen]

honestly, i lost the zeal to read them due to the show

maybe i'll check them out once i finish my earthsea reread

the folio earthsea books look so fucking good, man

[rich meadow]

I have the big earthsea collection edition

This one

[fickle ember]

Can’t believe they turned the ghibli movie into a book series

[rich meadow]

[modern lichen]

i am reading the ebook version of this

on my kindle

[rich meadow]

I hate to admit it but ... I'm rereading ASOIAF

[modern lichen]

unfortunate

i cant get myself to do it, dude

[rich meadow]

I'll probably stop halfway through. Dunno why I'm even doing it given George doesn't give a fuck

[modern lichen]

like, i watch a video or something related to it or i see a reddit post

it ignites my interest

and then the reality just dawns on me

so i abandon any thought of revisiting it

[rich meadow]

that's basically what got me to start it again lol. Kept seeing a bunch of youtube vids and shorts about it

[modern lichen]

and with the show being tainted by the fucking ending its like hell

[rich meadow]

cursed franchise

[modern lichen]

so i am sticking to things that are complete or that i know will be completed

shit like rereading earthsea or checking out malazan and continuing stormlight

[rich meadow]

Stormlight for sure. Book 5 is coming out soon

[sage remnant]

And sleep for first two fr

[modern lichen]

yeah i'm just waiting for that to come out to continue

Heard French series Lupin is good

Learning new language is a must i think, because the list of English series is getting thinner

[little hull]

[scenic terrace]

Wheel of time s2 ep 3 ending ||HOLY CLOWN SHOW 🤡 🤡 🤡 ||
