Sounds dumb, I can’t wait!
- Comment on Linda Hamilton says she wouldn't star in a 'Terminator' reboot: 'It's been done to death' 9 months ago:
You’re right. There’s a big difference between choices she makes now, and choices she made before Dark Fate existed. And many of them are probably irrelevant to the final product that the audience experiences.
I’ll also add that personally I think her character has been exceptionally curated (barring early cancelation of TSSC) over the years and nearly any movie could have been a good sendoff for the character - and importantly Linda Hamilton has been an exceptional talent in bringing the character to life. So no matter what, my criticism as a fan comes from a place of enjoyment, and more important: her opinion on the matter is infinitely more valuable than mine.

What’s the point of a reboot in a time travel series, especially if it includes the some of the same cast (presumably playing their same characters)? Just pick different characters that fit into the established events/lore. Genisys is probably the closest thing we have to a reboot, with new actors playing established roles.
Hell, Dark Fate practically was this reboot already, replacing Skynet with Legion and all that. And yet Hamilton did sign on for that one.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m glad she did and sometimes it feels like I’m part of a very small club who enjoyed that movie. But the delineation of what she would (did) sign on for, vs wouldn’t is very unclear to me, and describing that difference as a “reboot” I find overall nonsensical given the franchise’s premise and history.

Equating “Hollywood elites” with “nasty commies” is fucking hilarious. Every time I read about this woman I have to remind myself it’s not satire.

I can see both points of view and am not sure which side I find more compelling.
On one hand, it makes sense to have a weekly post about new movies, and a dedicated post for each movie when it comes out. IMO those were healthy features of the subreddit.
On the other hand, you’re right that the size of the community doesn’t warrant much in the way of structure and demanding it of our lone moderator is not fair to them (you).
I’m glad the conversation is happening though.

I don’t have a full ranking personally, and I there’s some I haven’t seen, but the first thing that popped into my head when reading the question was quantum of solace

- Comment on Good gaming experiences with no HUD? 1 year ago:
I know you can disable all HUD elements in Doom eternal, but you need to be pretty good at it already to be effective. So not a good candidate for a beginner, but it sure does look good if you can pull it off.
