I'm in those threads too and also how the gently caress are they not using this acoustic version for anything? It's even better than the one already in the show which is good. Sorry to poo poo up this thread tho.

You can't really write his single minded pursuit of building a rocket capable of putting a man on the moon off though. He did in fact achieve it. The way he went about it is absolutely morally reprehensible though.

I don't think you can really discount his contributions to the civil rights movement either, he's a very strange figure in American history.

The way he went about it is absolutely morally reprehensible though. I mean, you can also argue his main achievement was further refining the much more revolutionary work done by people like Goddard who have the historical advantage of not building their rockets with the deaths of Jews and Romani and such. Also a lot of people would argue that had Korolev not been hamstrung by his leadership the whole moon race thing would be yet another part of the 'space race' we gloss over because the Soviets won it, he wanted to find a way to deliver subjects and payloads to the moon since the early days shooting R-7s into orbit, and it was under him the Luna probes got some of the first images such as of the dark side and all. It feels a little lame to act like 'dedicated to going to the moon' was some special trait of Von Braun.

Relevant Tangent posted:Star Wars is at best PG 13 at all times, which means it'll never be particularly moving because it'll never allow the hero to shoot his incredibly racist dad right in the face mid-tirade. There's no meaningful stakes possible in anything on Disney+ and there never will be. You've obviously only ever watched the movies. The Clone Wars was amazing in fleshing the PT out and giving depth to a ton of characters. 99 here is a defective clone but still wants to help out and initially the clones treat him like poo poo but he sacrifices himself to help and his final words are amazing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIbHzsEWI4k The jedi here treats clones like cannon fodder and sends them to their deaths throughout the episode but eventually they get sick of taking his poo poo and rise up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZdTJ_t3bug This is only a couple of things in a huge, amazing series. Not to mention all the stuff in Rebels and even in Bad Batch. The CG shows are works of art. The shift to live action TV is still finding it's footing, i'll give you that, but I am sure like the CG shows it'll find em.

On rewatch, I really enjoyed when Vigilante included Economos in his proposed collage. Once upon a time it would have been just him and Peacemaker banging a bunch of chicks while dolphins watch and do beer bongs in a Corvette.

Quite a few cops got taken. I'll bet at least one of them had a pet that they take to that clinic. Do you think, vets or not, that those people would be able to shoot that guy that they know? Maybe shoot his children if they were taken? Peacemaker was right. If those people went along, they'd just die - probably by getting butterflied.

I seent that Suicide Squad movie last night, was really surprised how the show basically covered every moment of Peacemaker in it, if only because there wasn't much. It wasn't terrible, got a few laughs and I kind of liked how everyone hamfistedly explains their origin story, often right before they die. Some of the Harley stuff felt like maybe they should just give her a movie, it eventually got reconnected to the rest but for the most part felt like a separate unrelated adventure or perhaps conclusion to things started in the other movies I didn't see... and looking them up probably won't. I liked polka dot man and was impressed how well they pulled off his special effect powers. Seeing how well the goofier spectrum of comic book stuff can work really makes me wish they'd let The Ventrue Bros boys have a go at a DC movie or something, if not I wouldn't hate seeing some VB characters come to life. Did Peacemaker have a special helmet in the movie, he never seemed to indicate he had a specific power from it, they kind of just joked that his only superpower was being good at violence, which was redundant with Idris Elba having the same "powers."

I quite enjoyed The Emancipation of Harley Quinn, though I only watched it the once so maybe it doesn't hold up? The fact the big climactic battle of the film is effectively an Adam West Batman TV series henchmen fight just with very high production values was great.

I get the feeling his dad didn't want to talk to him while he was still in prison, and he'd especially refuse to make new helmets if he found out THE DEEP STATE was offering him work in exchange for a shorter sentence.

Huntress is the best. One of my favorite moments is right before the final Adam West-esque fight when Huntress flips out and yells that she doesn't have rage issues, and Black Canary reacts with the most amazing "Get a load of this poo poo" expression on her face.

The only thing that bothers me a little is Cassandra Cain in the movie because it's just grabbing a name that could be anybody else's. Everything else is pretty dope. Liked Harley attacking the police station. And Huntress.

I didn't really like it that much. I think if the movie was Harley + Cassandra OR The BOP, it would have been fine. Combining both stories together didn't really work for me. I also thought the fight scenes weren't that great which is odd since they apparently had people from John Wick work on those. The non-action stuff was way better than the action scenes. Ewan MacGregor was also wasted, which is a shame.
