Yeah, sorry man. I just disagree. I only read the first dune book and half of messiah so far. But I really think the movie did a great job with it. Agree to disagree

Also the two movies look gorgeous on 4k HDR Blu-ray, but I digress.

Just pretend you're an actor. You know the lines. You've practiced it. Now act dammit!

Yea for sure. Also having a demon baby cgi monster would have been weird on screen.

I didn't say I didn't mean it. Dang you're really on some laser focused griefing today aren't you

That's my thinking.

Yea she was pretty pro-Paul in the books I think.

Can you elaborate on how the 2nd movie didn't follow the book well? Because in my opinion it was pretty damn close to the book......i did think that the ending in the movie was a bit rushed and not as clearly explained as in the book, and they clearly pushed off Paul's demon sister baby to the 3rd movie, but other than that, it was pretty damn close? As far as book adaptations go, I felt this was easily top tier. It's impossible to capture every single thing from the book. There's just way too much shit that happened. Compared to adaptations that just straight up say "fuck you" to the books (witcher/3 body problem/silo) this felt very faithful to me.

If you read my original comment, I said it was a gross simplification. I know how nuanced this is.

Oh true. But just having an adblocker could make you more finberprintable right? I mean literally any tweak to the browser will add to a fingerprint. But you're right. It's all a tradeoff between privacy and fingerprinting.

I'm not sure what your argument is. I'm not saying all dumb people are poor. Absolutely not the case. There are plenty of absolute morons who are rich that support Trump. I literally never made any correlation claims about wealth?

Also I'm not talking about myself at all so idk why you took this as me saying i am very smart? Weird take...

Half the population is below average IQ and will listen to whoever screams the loudest. That's a gross simplification but basically what's going on. People with low IQ do not have logical reasoning.

My thinking is this:

  • 1/3 of people are actually stupid
  • 1/3 of people are good
  • 1/3 of people are evil

Trump taps into dumb and evil.

I like this Instance (eviltoast.org)

I just wanted to say that I like this instance. It feels calm, cool, and collected. There is no BS happening here. From what I can see, no one has defederated from us and we have not defederated from anyone else. The rules for the Instance look reasonable. Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for keeping it nice here :-).

 

I watched 'Welcome to the N.H.K' about 7 years ago and I just unfortunately have not been able to find any slice of life anime shows that live up to it. Do you guys know of any?
