Something I learned from listening to podcasts about comedy and stand up is to never tell the audience they are getting a bad show. If you think you are bombing and start trying to lampshade it you admit to the audience you don’t have control over the situation and they start to have a bad time.
P.s. I was thinking of narcissists who will never be satisfied or seem to enjoy ruining events, not necessarily just being disappointed with something. Im sorry you feel that way sometimes
It actually happened because Paul verhoeven wrote a script that only got attached to the novel when someone else noticed the similarities. Paul never actually read it lol
In the novel they very much are small teams of individual warfighters in high-tech mech suits that can leap 100 yards at a time and fire tactical nukes. They also actually have strategy and stuff. The human wave warfare in the movies doesn’t fit in with the message of the novel at all. I’d actually recommend reading the novel, its pretty interesting even tho its politics are bad.
Difficult to be hard on Cain for taking rejection badly - imagine there only is and only has ever been 5 sapient creatures in existance, one of them is GOD, and he goes out of his way to point out how much he loves your brother and hates you. There’s no “we’ll get 'em next time” and certainly no “plenty of fish in the sea.”
The real ass GOD and every people who have EVER lived think you suck. Hard to underreact to that
Yeah I’m really excited for it cuz I’m basically non functional now. A couple months ago a friend of my partner died from it (fell asleep sitting up playing video games on the couch and just couldn’t get breathing again) so I’m pretty motivated to get it lol.
Its really rough right now, I have a psychiatrist appointment to finally get my ADHD diagnosis (after a year of waiting) and get my cpap next week (after like 9 months of waiting) so I’ve been counting down days for months now lol
Thanks for caring lol <3
I’m getting a machine next week, im in my 30s and never used one before, my test said ahi was 55 which is a lot, I’m really hoping my life will become more liveable due to the machine but I have to wait like 9 days to get it
I found it a lot easier to watch because they really make no attempt at pathos or the kind of “character arcs” that are always in these kids cash in movies. They give the briefest possible introduction to the characters who are basically chosen at random. I enjoyed watching jack black deliver with conviction lines of dialogue that never bothered trying to make sense in the first place.
They really just distilled it down to “you like wacky characters and you like watching them interact so that is what the movie consists of” with a barely considered Minecraft layer of paint dumped on it. If they’re supposed to learn something, they literally spend the least amount of time possible having that actually happen. Danielle Brooks’ character is literally just “uh I dunno her landlord who drives her somewhere?” and she’s not really less developed than any of the other characters lol
Thinking of the Minecraft story mode on Netflix maybe? It had choose your own adventure elements and i think Patton oswalt voiced the main character
Thanks, didn’t show up on mobile! ≤3
