User Banned (1 Month): Racist Rhetoric; History of Inappropriate Commentary

So now people are defending Nintendo with 'inscrutable Oriental code of honor' bullshit? Fuck me, there is literally nothing they could do that some people on this forum won't defend.

User Banned (1 Week): Inflammatory Generalization

So at the end of the day the Palestinian votes went to Trump and then he's putting in a dude like this? Seems like an own goal.

Meanwhile, BDubs:

Let's put it this way, which would you be more willing to do: cheat on your taxes or distribute pirated Nintendo games? We know which one you're more likely to get away with lol

I don't mean this as a "well I always hated him" thing, but I'm reminded of when I finally watched Rocky the first time, a movie ostensibly made to show a triumph of the American dream, and I was just struck my how it was asking me to root for the white guy who had opportunity for the championship dropped at his feet arbitrarily over the Black career boxer who had actually gone through the whole process and worked his way up to be the champion the hard way.

That is a pretty cynical way to see that film, specially forgetting the whole point that he was dirty poor and being a loan shark, while Apollo (at the time of the movie) was also playing the American Dream act to the public. Saying that Rocky didn’t work his way to the top the “hard way” is silly as hell.

I suppose you can tell Rocky resonated with a lot of people precisely because this rather than just racial animosity, because then Apollo will have not explored be as a character of his own later on.

Stick with the mecha anime, Thammy… but I know they also ask you to see the other side and just not repeat leftie talking points from a decade ago because Sly has brain damage.

There's a much more simple reason than racism why Apollo was black in Rocky.

From about 1960 onwards to when Rocky was made in the 70s (and after) the heavyweight champion of the world was pretty much exclusively black.

Having a white heavyweight champion would have been laughable by the standards of the time.

Also, it's pretty fucking disingenuous to call Rocky white™. Italians were very much an underclass in the 60s and 70s.

As usual, Resetera are just racist cunts.

[D3RANG3D]

Am much as I loved Arnie's movies back in the day and they are still watchable even now, but politically he is totally bitchmade.

Yes I really don't give two shits if Stallone is a Trump supporter or whatever like who cares...now if he turns into a piece of shit like Arnie saying shit like fuck your freedoms or whatever then fuck him too!

Maybe they need to consider that tax-funded transition surgeries are politically toxic? You want go from he/him to she/her or vice versa? Fine, but do it on your own dime.

You were warned.

Creed was based around Ali. They had a skit at the Oscars where Ali pretends to fight Stallone over it.

Those Oscars were sort of famous for Rocky winning over All the President’s Men, Network, and Taxi Driver. You see people talk about vibe shifts nowadays. Post Vietnam, audiences wanted clear morality, feel good, universal underdog stories. Rocky, Star Wars, Superman hitting year after year.

tl;dr Top Gun Maverick should’ve won the Oscar for best picture

Rocky is a genuinely good film. The sequels were very popcorn, especially 3 and 4, but there's no denying the quality of 1 and 2.

Melds living rent free in y'alls minds.

Melody making 250+ dollars a week off the backs of paypigs without lifting a finger, eats all the tendies they want, watch anime all day and play with their gundams.

Enjoy your 9 to 5 wagies.

Wear earplugs when you go to concerts, folks  

As well as protecting your ears it filters out all the crap frequencies and makes the music sound better.

Agree on the first part, but disagree somewhat on the second. 

I mostly watch metal gigs and I have decent earplugs. They tend to filter out the mids so, depending on the band, I often hear a lot of bass and not much guitar.

Still, protect your ears boreitos

Whats the deal with Horizon?


https://www.resetera.com/threads/okay-what-is-the-deal-with-horizon.1036611/#post-131668962

I firmly believe much of the dismissal of the series is due to the fact that many people dismiss it due to it having a female lead, and it seems to be a popular target for the alt right chuds.

Horizon's original thing: Metal dinosaurs! Open world 

Horizon now: Something about space 

[MMaRsu]

Dismissal of the series?

Game sold 24 million copies on PS4.. 

What dismissal? 

(Aloy is an unlikable and boring protagonist, sorry to say)

Even as a proud dutch man I couldnt be bothered with the sequel.

[Jansen]

I didn't care for the story in horizon at all and as you said a game selling 20+ million copies is certainly not being "dismissed"

[Jansen]

Those fucking CHUDS though. Horizon could have been the next GTA5
