Yes. Also, “inflation has been flat so maybe we shouldn’t cut rates”

All I said was that it was the worst part of Reloaded

That’s an unneeded “purpose” in this movie, though. So, sure, it technically serves a “purpose” as all things technically do, but it serves no purpose to the plot/story/anything to do with this movie in a way that adds value. The scene could’ve been 30-60 seconds long with “hey look, they have parties”, but it just goes on with zero dialogue or much of anything happening besides lights flashing and terrible camera cuts for roughly 5 minutes.

It's more-so that the rave scene just completely "stops" the movie, breaks all pacing, and serves absolutely zero purpose.

2 minutes too long. And it's a bit over 5 minutes.

Reloaded was fine (minus the rave scene that went on for way too long)... until Revolution came out and decided to go the stupidest possible route for everything that was set-up in Reloaded. Example: Audience theory: HOLY FUCK, THERE'S TWO MATRIX? THE REAL WORLD ONE IS JUST TO EMULATE CHOICE AND ISN'T ACTUALLY REAL? JEBUS! What Revolution went with: Neo isn't just able to manipulate the Matrix code, he also has fucking magic powers in the real world. Also, this has happened 1000000 times before and is some dumbass cycle.

@Keyser_Sozewill be the judge of if that would be cool in Rebirth

Sounds stupid AF, but say the movements/buttons out loud for the crunch challenges. It helps for some reason.

You’re so woke I bet ambien doesn’t even make you fall asleep

Many on the list in your first link had 2-3 seasons, so I definitely would call that multiple years of seasons. The rest of your post is incredibly anecdotal and subjective. That list you gave are shows from over the course of 10+ years. Every network cancels a ton of shows every year, the avg for broadcast TV is apparently over 25% for the past year, and it seems that the normal avg is over a third. Other networks don’t cancel cult favorites? My guy, (off the top of my head) look at Firefly, Sarah Connor Chronicles, Don't Trust the Bitch In Apartment 23, Dollhouse, Lucifer (saved by Netflix btw), etc, etc, etc. I mean, how many times did Fox cancel Family Guy and Futurama? All under performing shows get canned, Netflix actually seems to be better about not canceling than most others TV networks going by the percentages on that chart, and that’s my entire point. I’m not saying that they don’t cancel shows that should’ve had a better chance or more seasons, I’m saying that they don’t seem to actually be worse than anyone else with it.

It’s tiny compared to, like, CBS, though. Many of those shows were quite bad to mediocre and not exactly high budget. ie: Dark Crystal wasn’t good, IMO, and its budget was about a third of some of Netflix's most expensive shows. Plus, as you noted, many of those had multiple years of seasons, and in regards to Glow (which I loved), it was filming the final season but then the pandemic hit, which is why it was canned without getting the finale (this happened to a lot of shows during the pandemic unfortunately). I mean, sure, there’s a bunch of good ones on that list, but I can name great shows that were cancelled on every network: that’s my point, this “Netflix cancels everything!” talking point is, well, just a talking point. They aren’t any worse than this than almost any other network.

What’s defining “big budget”, though? The biggest budget ones at Netflix typically seem to have multiple seasons and an actual “final season”, don’t they? I know some absolutely bombed and were canned, of course. The only big budget Netflix show that was canned “out of nowhere” that I can recently remember is “the get down” or whatever it was called, but that did terribly anyway iirc. Just kinda seems like a myth that got started by reddit trolls or something, I dunno. It just seems incredibly exaggerated. Anywho, looks like broadcast TV is way higher: https://www.chartr.co/stories/2023-09-20-2-streaming-platforms-cancelling-shows I’d argue that Max is skewed a bit due to all the cancellations from the merger, but Disney, Paramount, and Hulu are all a lot worse than Netflix with cancellations it seems.

The GV60 is incredible. Make sure to rub the orb (you'll know when you see it )

Tesla’s haven’t been the best EV for a few years now, so all you guys not wanting one are just making good decisions

Never really understood this. Isn’t Netflix’s cancellation rate like 10-12%? That’s a lot lower than the average for network TV, isn’t it?

Yea, you need to constantly switch who you’re controlling. The tactic I used was to fill an ATB bar, select an ability to use on the Mindflayer, and immediately switch (before the ability/spell was cast) to another character and do the same thing. I also tried to use abilities that took awhile to cast and wouldn’t typically hit more than a single enemy (ie: Cloud’s triple slash almost always strikes at least two enemies, so I’d use fireblade or whatever it’s called, or I’d get him to 2x bars and use infinity’s end). Still took 2 or 3 tries, such a pita.

I kept coming 1-2 seconds off from the top tier and just noped out after the 6-8th time

Yea, that’s a rough one, but the frog mini game is worse. It’s the only one I gave up on

I laughed harder at this than I probably should have
