I remember reading an interview with Rothfuss back when the first book was published, and he was saying that the great thing about his books is that unlike so many other writers he wouldn’t make fans wait for them because all three were already done before he even had a book deal, and they were planning to publish…

It looks like a clown from the early 1900s rather than a more modern style. It’s also more or less exactly as the creature was described in the book, if I remember correctly.

If you watch the gif at the top of the story, it looks like a middle-aged white man is spawned into existence by their collision.

I think maybe it’s just you, because when I look at him all I see is a piece of shit killer.

Now there’s a great idea.

I always assumed he was named Kirby because of the vacuum cleaner brand. I thought it was so obvious I never even wondered whether I was wrong.

It depends on the rules of the state the fight is in, I believe.

I’m pretty sure that the only ones that really matter are the WBO, WBA, WBC, and IBF titles. Any others are smaller and lesser-respected belts.

I’m aware this comment is almost three years old, but dammit, you deserved that star. I knew there was a Stinkor episode because my cousin got Stinkor for Christmas and I remember telling him how Stinkor talked in the cartoon so he’d do the voice right. Thank you for validating my vague recollection.

I’m 100% certain Pence has seen this movie hundreds of times. It’s probably one of the only films his religion allows him to watch. Also, it’s a great movie; just because a shithead zealot likes it, doesn’t make it bad.

This is one of the dumbest things I’ve ever seen. Budgies are not equipped to survive in the wild. Even if the dog hadn’t eaten it, it would have been dead within 48 hours. Fucking moron.

You might be right, it might have been enough on its own without any extra dialogue. I really think this is a less-is-more situation. Another thing I thought was weak was foreshadowing the water transformation; as soon as they mentioned him killing someone by turning them into water, I knew someone would wind up…

Oh, I agree completely. There shouldn’t have been any voiceover. It’s almost always a bad idea, and seems like hack writing 90% of the time. It screams “I have no better ideas on how to communicate the basics of what I want to say to the audience without literally saying it to them directly.” Lazy writing.

I re-read your comment, and I think you misunderstood me because I wasn’t clear. What I meant was that there COULD have been a story there, but it never actually appeared.

I thought the same thing when I saw the Silverdome, but I imagine that would only bother locals like us.

I agree, the voice-over was a total waste. It didn’t tell us anything that they couldn’t have had the characters tell us far more naturally in the first 30 seconds of the film.

I think there’s a story there, the filmmaker just blew it. It could have been a lot better. I had no issue with the technical aspects; the director was competent, just not a great storyteller, at least judging by this film.

Waste of ten minutes. If a nine-minute and change short film has like three minutes of expository voice-over, the filmmaker failed.

I’m pretty sure Avon isn’t like the other companies listed here. I don’t know much about it, but my stepmother has been selling Avon for at least 25 years, and there’s no recruiting or anything, and she doesn’t have to buy a bunch of products up front. She sells small amounts to friends and only orders what she…

You may want to reconsider. Reading the books makes it very easy to remember which character is which on the show.
