Yeah, aren’t the bikes actually reasonable (if you buy them from other makers)? I don’t think the bike part of the unit does anything special beyond possibly sending performance data to them for your account/live things.
You know how you know something ain’t right but it’s funny and then Neil deGrasse Tyson jumps out of a closet and fucks up your whole day?
They also probably didn’t factor in ingenuity from people who would buy other, less expensive, spin class bikes and just use courses on YT for free. The only way their model probably works now is if they sold machines at or below cost and entice people to get service plans and content plans.
Change happens.
As a four year-old kid, I watched the “Sand people” hurt Luke and thought “evil.”
I played Knights of the Old Republic and the Tuskans were angry because the corporations trying to exploit their land were pushing further and further into their territory. Unless I played Dark Side, I always made peace…
I mean, I get that they want to stir drama and all, but it’s a superhero book in the Marvel Universe... honestly, let he who has not been cloned, time-traveled, alternate-dimensioned, wished, willed, or otherwise magiked back to life at least once cast the first stone here.
I’m not preoccupied with notions of success or failure about money or commercial success, because those things really corrupt your choices.
For those lacking in reading comprehension, he isn’t saying its the low point of his career with regards to his performance. He is talking about his own emotional state. It is the point where he as a person just felt out of it and not happy. Make all the snide comments you want about how “no X role was the worst” but…
Moore’s run was 19 issues (maybe 20 but one issue was a reprint so less than 20). Miracleman started as Marvelman and was a ripoff of Captain Marvel (the one that says Shazam not the Marvel one) when the UK couldn’t get Captain marvel material to publish.
All I can say is I am really, really glad that they remembered that Original Trilogy Boba was a jobber not the bad ass we see in the Mandalorian and they are being clear there were major steps in between. That was my one big hope for the series and I’m thankful not to be disappointed on that front.
It’s so unrealistic. It would be like if most of the international political positions of the two largest superpowers for the last four decades were entirely wrapped up in, to choose a completely random country, Afghanistan. That would never happen!
In both the original and this one the question thats never answered... So What happens if the matrix ends, so you free billions (what is the figure of humans it needs), how to you feed all these people. They have never functioned outside of the matrix, their muscles (like neo in the first one) would be atrophied.
Option…
The Analyst saying that when people feel they create more energy is the same exact approach that social media outlets like Facebook and Twitter like to operate with.
It started off quite interesting - all the meta stuff (even the namedrop about Warner Bros wanting a sequel, etc) but then just lost any potential by becoming almost a straight retread of the original concept. Very disappointing.
There’s lots of nitpicks to be had, things I disagree with in this roundtable...but a lot of it seems to stem from that people seemed to have missed one of the core themes and through lines in the film. Its core to just about every piece of story in the film.
What I liked about Resurrections was that, unlike a lot of belated sequels, it didn’t undo the victories of the older movies. There has been peace between humans and machines for decades, and some of the machines are part of the humans’ culture. The villain is a new kind of enemy, not the old one in disguise. Even…
I didn’t know those things had happened but that’s awesome.
“Extrapolating out for his much longer lifespan Logan probably racked up a larger overall body count”
When Captain America beats the shit out of you so hard he almost breaks his fist on your face, you’re probably not the hero. (Unless he’s Hydra Cap.) When Daredevil and Wolverine team up over drinks to hunt you down and put you in prison, you’re probably not the hero.
The Punisher was one of a slew of 1970s Marvel characters where the company was shamelessly ripping off whatever was popular in the movies of the day and making a comic book out of that, and seeing what stuck. That’s where the big wave of martial arts characters came from, for instance, and their blacksploitation…
