I'd say wait for the new one to come out, then buy the old even cheaper

Even sitting in the plane (or more often the train), I keep wondering if it's the right one.

That was a good read, thanks!

I really like this one, but it feels like it should be sprayed on a wall somewhere and not on a magic card tbh

Damn, my bad! Confused the composers. It's Jeremy Soule, the composer of the Elder Scrolls soundtracks, that has sexual misconduct allegations 😬

The Witcher series also has a great fantasy soundtrack in that vein , if you don't mind the artists allegations... (got confused, it's actually The Elder Scrolls soundtracks composer, Jeremy Soule, with the sexual misconduct allegations)

Other than that the Baldurs Gate 2 Soundtrack was also pretty good iirc.

I have to admit that it's been quite a while since I read the manga last. That probably saved me from too close comparisons and I could enjoy the movie more on its own terms.

Happy to hear! I loved Alita. Has always been one of my favorite Mangas, liked the Anime adaptions and just thought they did a really good job translating it to the cinema. Best live action Anime in my opinion!

I don't get it either. Is this some American thing?

That is a very pessimist assumption. Why wouldn't they want to help you personally as well? But even if that would be the case, their job isn't to care. It's to help you. They don't need to necessarily care about your story to help you deal with it.

An hour max. I like sleeping during the night. (I'm sorry, I think I just became a dad)

Yes, sure. An open source mobile phone is the only thing that can save humanity from... too much time on mobile phones? "Silicon valley algorithms"? Here a a couple of random facts, now go check out my sponsor.

Is it still though? Also, weren't early super heroes mostly adult like Superman and Batman? I feel like back in the day when the audience were mostly children they used adult superheroes the kids could aspire to, then they started aging them down with Spider-Man to make them more relatable. Nowerdays the audience is mostly adult, maybe yearning for simpler times, certainly with a lot of nostalgia for what they used to see.

But to be honest I don't think the premise is actually true. There are certainly some eternally young superheroes, but there are still and always have been lots of older superheroes.

How are the 20s middle ground? I wanna see 50 year old spider-man! Give me a proper geriatric spider-man in his 70s or 80s! Okay maybe that's going a little too far. Especially with spider-man I find it hard to imagine him older than 40.

I don't think you can effectively boycott whole countries if you aren't doing so on a country level.

Consumer level boycotts against companies on the other hand seem to work very well.

It's breaking my immersion! /s

Not quite sure how well they fit, but the movies that come to my mind are: Grave of the Fireflies, Requiem for a Dream and Enter the Void.

They are overtly about different themes, but suffering and loss play big roles in each. Great movies that you'll probably only going to want to watch once.

I guess the classic, cleaning your apartment angrily, isn't very stimulating mentally.

Someone suggested running with an audiobook. In that vein there is a mobile "fitness game" called "Zombies, Run!" that could help you with your mind.

Gardening and stuff like cutting fire wood would also probably work. Woodworking or just carving could work, but might be dangerous, depending on how angry you are.

Kids these days don't even know what memes are. For them webcomics and social media screenshots, even plain political ones without a shred of humor, are just memes. Everything is a meme now...
