This has made me wonder, did any 90s film capture the source material well? I say this as someone who went from teen to young adult those years. Mean you can usually tell a movie’s decade, but this one sort of captured the 90s action movies as an aesthetic to me. Or maybe cause Stallone was in his groove for a bit which was an earlier/mid 90s thing too. Never read the comics but did enjoy the Dredd movie much more, and can’t go wrong with Karl Urban that I’ve seen.

I’m sure some lesser known comics did better but definitely not Batman, sure there were others I didn’t watch or realize were comic related.

Exactly then it’s all very cool and very legal thanks to the US supreme court. Honestly it’s my official duty to collect unnamed sums of cash for favours, how else can a poor President of the most powerful nation on Earth ever survive?

Let’s throw in a 3rd term allowance too since he was so persecuted in his first heh. I’d say allow him to rob the treasury too but he’ll do that anyways if he’s elected.

Also yes I know about project 2025, so there’s a chance he gets that in some form anyways. After all, a president can do whatever he wants if the heritage foundation says it’s official duties…sorry the Supreme Court.

That’s the thing, they don’t care if people have a solid understanding of science if it gives them power / more true believers. It’s a completely backwards thinking that’ll set back science for years, decades or more if it really takes hold.

If the strongest military power on Earth is being controlled by religious fundamentalists (aka heritage foundation) it is quite scary. Sure it’ll take some time to widdle down the will of the people in charge (replace them) but given a bit of time it could easily happen and they don’t just want to change their country they think their opinion is right for the world.

I also agree, I love science, I’m older but I still strive to learn new things, get excited by new discoveries it’d be a shame if that stopped cause people gave up on it, or if education failed people wanting to learn it.

They’ll just give vouchers for Christian private schools, who will charge as much as they like but it’ll be an ‘approved’ school and drain more taxpayer money. Also sounds crazy when you realize the attendance in a public school. Basically funding Christian oriented schools.

Didn’t downvote you and see what you mean, but your conclusion didn’t really come out to their endgame. It’ll be affordable to all, cause it’ll be Indoctrination for Christian Nationalists.

Hopefully it helps for the US elections, from a concerned neighbor of theirs.

Sometimes they actually get sentenced to jail but nothing we’d want our kids to look up to or helping society improve. Only the best people of course.

Like Hitchhiker’s guide…is it safe? Oh yes it’s safe but not us.

I think it depends on the marketing in the end. Even if it’s expensive, if it’s not known it probably won’t sell as much as you hope. If I’m proved wrong I’d like to know to give it a try of course heh. But I do think many of those brands survive on the rich knowing them to parade around, even if they’re not known by sight due to non displayed logos.

If you want to target the new rich, then it needs to be high profile and flashy I assume.

Yeah between the biker gang and ballad of gay Tony, they had some great dlc for 4. I bought GTA 5 a second time for the PC after awhile but can’t expect a good dlc these days from them unfortunately. Hopefully their main story holds up but I’m not holding my breath given their online cash cow.
