>but I cannot understand why it will take Metro nearly 20 years to acquire an all-electric fleet.

Maybe it's because they're trying not to replace working buses prematurely? 🤔

Japan has hundreds of flavors of kit kats though. I wish we got more of them.

How much is the DC Council getting in return? 🤨

>As for non-binary actors, why not just nominate them in the category that’s best fitting for the character they’re portraying? There hasn’t even been a non-binary actor that I can think of that would ever even be up for an Oscar anyway, I don’t see why we should change nearly a hundred years of an awards category just for rare fringe circumstances.

That's essentially what they do. For a lot of awards non-binary actors can choose which category they want to be considered for.

E.g. Emma D'arcy from HotD was submitted for best actress awards in the Emmys, Golden Globes, etc.

I'll just leave this here: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001877/

>Danny getting shot in the end is portrayed as if it's Derek's fault for getting him involved in White Supremacy, which would make sense. However, in the beginning of the film, all Danny does is walk into the bathroom, confront the kids that were bullying the snitch, and tell the snitch that he needs to stand up for himself.

1. It's the same guy that was bullying the snitch that is the one who shoots Danny.

2. I think it makes sense that Derek blames himself a bit, that's plausible, even if how much of it is his fault is arguable.

The tragedy is that Danny moves past his hate and resolves to put it aside only to fall victim to a consequence of an earlier interaction.

I think Lucy was after Scarlett Johannsson was already fairly well-established as an actress.

But in general, I do think it's rare for someone to get a lead part with little history unless it's a young character with plans for multiple movies. (E.g. Harry Potter). Because starting w/ someone who's already a star is expensive.

>Edit 2: I cannot imagine suing classmates and the law school, being in the bottom half of the curve and losing an academic scholarship, and still going back to law school after this.

I can imagine some law school admissions committees treating this as real world experience along the lines of an internship.

I would imagine a lot of us have jobs and subscribe to streaming services. Or we have cable and watch movies when they're on a channel we get, or dvr them for later. Sometimes we go to the theater to see a new movie.

There's a ton of research in a variety of fields demonstrating that things we say we want aren't actually things we want.

The fact is that the percent of people that want worse teeth or hair for characters in movies is negligible

>In the 30-ish MCU movies/shows, the military has made 0 difference in any fight scene, ever (excluding Captain America: The First Avenger, where it's literally set in WW2).

Ummm...Col. James Rhodes (War Machine)...he does a decent amount. Played by Don Cheadle. Ring any bells?

>Shooting Thor does nothing.

Refresh my memory as to when they shot Thor?

>we all know how much the USA loves to jerk itself off with throwing the military in any action movie

Apparently you love to jerk yourself off with your posts...

Actually, the US military doesn't appear that much in most of the MCU movies.

>It's straight up lazy writing.

This sub would be so much better if automod were setup to autoremove posts containing the words "lazy writing". It's lazy criticism.

>Nowadays, most modern trailers no longer have voice-over which I can deal, but the problem is that every movie trailers always have pop songs and even cover version of pop songs in the background and slowly became repetitive, so in this thread we need to discuss is it better that movie trailers should abandon popular songs for original songs instead?

I'd prefer they leave the original songs for the actual movie, not the trailer...

In a world where you find different pop songs on trailers to be repetitive, you don't find Don LaFontaine's voiceovers repetitive as well? Just a bit?

The Prestige.

A lot of tech companies don't advertise their smaller offices. There's history of people hanging out near them and harassing/stalking employees on their way in or out. Not sure of any specific incident w/ the Microsoft office in question, but it's talked about in a lot of the big tech companies.

How long have we got?

You hacked a site that anyone can edit? Mazal tov?

Someone just trying to karma farm, most likely. They posted it to public freakout too...

It's great the way it was. Conspiracy theories are dumb.

That may be the primary result, but not the primary intent. The production company behind it has a slew of shitty movies that are just ripoffs of popular works or things in the public domain.

Winnie the pooh is allowed because the copyright on the initial story expired. It's that old. (95 years after publication or 70 years after author's death)

With Mario, you have several decades before you'll be able to get away with a horrendously awful movie just to make a little money off the Mario IP.

See you in 2080.

And you thought you'd compare a city (Washington D.C) to entire states? No adjustment to control for inflation?

>Lmao. The Prequels were never as hated as the Sequels are.

Lol, oh my sweet summer child...they were hated so much more.

Perhaps you're the contrarian, seeing as how you're the one who thinks, ZoMg StAr WaRs Is RuInEd FoReVeR BeCaUsE hUrR dUrR sEqUeLs BaD.

I remember people like you when the prequels came out. But it sounds like you're too young for that so for you it was the sequels.

>Is it possible to save Star Wars or is the franchise completely dead?

I bet $100 someone has said this every time something new comes out in Star Wars since the 90s.

Stop claiming your opinion as "universally agreed" fact.

I'm skeptical these qualify as tropes in the way the word 'trope' is typically used. It's like if we called starting the title of the movie with the word 'the' a trope.

>1. When someone says "Look," every fucking time they're about to sit down someone else to tell them how they feel. I recently saw this on The Boys, which is a nice show but this really bothered me, especially when I saw a kid do it. Have you ever talked to a kid?? Kids don't talk like that!!!

A lot of people start conversations with 'look, ...'. Just because you don't and your friends and family don't doesn't mean it's not authentic human dialogue.

>2. When the bathroom is ALWAYS down the hall and to the left. Are you fucking kidding me? Do you really even need to ask where the bathroom is? Most of the time we're in a tiny little house. Just open some doors and you'll find it. Do we really need to write that in the script??

A lot of people find it rude to go snooping and opening random doors in someone else's house.

Honestly, even if we were to consider these tropes, seems a little weird to be bothered enough about them to write a post.
