Q: What effect did this plot point ultimately have?

WossnameVague question title, unfortunately, to avoid spoilers - the real question is: What effect did the coming of winter ultimately have? 'Winter is coming' was a common refrain during the early seasons of the show, but once it came it seemed to be barely mentioned again. It didn't seem to have mu...

Q: How is Dr. Strange's Engame justified?

Sazid AhmadIn Infinity wars, Dr. Strange explains all the events that took place were the only 1 out of 14,000,605 ways to win against Thanos and after having watched Endgame I am not quite convinced. Here are the following objections I have against his endgame and I would like to know how his final plan is...

Q: What is the significance of feminism in Mad Max: Fury Road?

Corrie van Smith Feminist critics have praised the dominant role taken by Furiosa and the range of atypical female roles including the wives and the gun-toting Vuvalini, and disability studies scholars have commended the film for its positive, non-stigmatizing portrayals of physical and psychological d...

If anyone's got a better (and/or more diplomatic) wording than mine, go ahead... Not sure I'll convince the guy with that
@Vishwa (Stack Exchange wise, not life-wise) because off-topic questions should be closed and not answered, as it sends a message of "oh, they're off-topic but you'll get an answer anyway". This motivates people to ask more of them, and that's a problem, yes... Not to mention that as it got accepted, this won't get auto-deleted by a script and will need a mod to remove it. Once again, don't answer off-topic questions (or POB, or dupes, etc), and especially when you've casted a close vote yourself. That's just... Wrong. — Jenayah 50 secs ago
 
@Jenayah agree, upvoted
Anyways deleted too now
 
So, both Question & Answer account was created today. And the Answer has 3 upvotes. So in total, 5 sock-puppet accounts involved — KharoBangdo 18 mins ago
@MovieReel what i am thinking myself
@Jenayah yeh that last bit i have problems with (not your comment, the practice) with the only exception is maybe a duplicate but it's so-so with that
in most cases if you vote to close the question should be answered. if you answered it before or after you voted you know full well your answer shouldn't be there
duplicates can be forgiven but it depends on the answer posted. there can be legit times where someone posted an answer and then voted to close a dupe but generally these are because they didn't know there was a dupe

@Memor-X :D
 
@Memor-X four can be a case too

@AnkitSharma good
@Memor-X oof
@Memor-X yeah, agreed the dupe thing is not that clear. My bad :)

Q: How come the new King does not wear any crown?

Shadow WizardIn the last episode of Game of Thrones, While there is no longer Iron Throne, I'd expect the new king to at least wear a crown. But alas, I don't remember seeing it happening. The new Queen of the North does appear to get an elegant crown, but not the King. How so? Is there some explanation...

 
6:59 AM
@MovieReel Overlook of the plot? I don't think if there should have been a crown it was gonna be overlooked.
Do they take the writers to be orangutans or something.
Wait, orangutans are actually pretty smart.
 
@MovieReel because who wants to wear the new Knifey Hat

There are also references to her ponytail being the source of her powers indicating that she is a witch of sorts. So is S...

@NogShine someone asked "why didn't i cry because of this Endgame Spoiler" and the answer was "because your heartless, this character is awesome, team this character". answer was accepted and upvoted 3 times

Daenerys/Elsa combo sounds like a White Walkers wrote some weird fanfic
 
yesterday, by Ankit Sharma
> “We named our petition ‘Just try and write a massive fantasy epic as well as us, you ungrateful little shits,” exclaimed Benioff, smoking a joint made from a rolled-up thousand dollar bill. “I’d love to see them do it. I’d love to see them condense 1500 individual plotlines into one season in a way that makes everyone happy, without any source material whatsoever. I’m sure they’ll do just great.”
some white walker took up on that bet

Q: Why did the Dothraki not follow Jon?

BudynIn Game of Thrones season 8 episode 6 Jon kills Daenerys. As we know from previous seasons, if you kill a Khal you become a Khal and Dothraki will treat you as their leader. There was no mention of them after Daenerys dies, so what could happen?

Q: Is Dominic Toretto's Personal Code a factor in the Vin Diesel Babylon A.D.?

DukeZhouI'm not suggesting that Toorop is Dominic, although there is an idea that "movie stars" tend to "play themselves" in every role (Jared Harris contrasted this with "chameleon" actors who make every role distinct, Gary Oldman & Tom Hardy as examples.) Here's what I mean: In Babylon A.D. (2008) T...

Why Hotstar censor indian films and fine with game of thrones O.o
 
Like, uncut GOT?
Or do they edit it anyway?
 
NO tehy show GoT uncut with all sex and gore
But for a indian film they cut slur, gay kissing and soem scenes too
wtf
I was too late to relaise same film was on netflix
I hope this is the Terminator 3 we deserve
 
@AnkitSharma uh... Not coherent.
@AnkitSharma oooh when is this coming out
 
@Jenayah I am happy I didn't paid for it, stupid people. GoT jad more xplicit langauge and gay scene then this indian film
@Jenayah NOvember 1st
 
Nice, will be waiting
 
6:25 PM
I can count on Tim Miller
 
Maybe they're just jaded towards GoT.
 
Maybe he can fix Terminator franchise
 
@AnkitSharma I guess they want to make sure to cash in on GOT...
 
@NapoleonWilson GoT was the major asset for Hotstar.
 
@AnkitSharma That's not too difficult, it only requires two letter swaps.
 
6:26 PM
But have a consistentcy
 
@NapoleonWilson done
 
Should be doable for Millers' Timmy, too.
 
Genysis was enjoyable. Don't get me wrong, there was nothing really new, I didn't get why the whole Genysis thing was such a big deal in-universe, the villain was meh. Buy it took the scenes from T1 and T2 that worked, threw in a couple "Arnie is old" jokes, and that worked perfectly for me.
 
Once a india directir say don't watch my film on hotstar and go for torrent as hotstar ruined his film with there weird edit
 
6:28 PM
@Jenayah Sure, it was okay.
 
@Jenayah Genysis was not bad bad but not a good film either. I was sad salvation didn't worked as it was way better then t3 and Genysis
 
I dunno, I never really saw Salvation as a Terminator film. No Schwarzenegger, no Terminator :-)
 
t2>>t1>>>>>salvation>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Genysis>>>>>>>>>>>>>t3
 
Terminator 3 was totally fine, too.
 
My ranking
Not sure about TV show
 
6:30 PM
And T3... T3 is just stupid.
 
@NapoleonWilson T3 was forced T2 again but with less fun
 
Haven't seen enough of TSCC to give an actual comment...
 
I have seen one epsiode of TSCC without knowing what it was, though it's some mockbuster :D as I was confused
 
Maybe they should have made Linda Hamilton queen of Westeros in the finale, to close the circle.
 
lol
I will watch it for Linda Hamilton
she is badass
Sigourney Weaver and Linda Hamilton are my fav badass from there generation
@Jenayah but he was in salvation for some time
 
6:37 PM
Yeah, like Peter Cushing was in Rogue One. ;-)
 
who is Peter Cushing now O.o
 
Do we ever know who people really are?
Ponder over this while I go home!
 
Not a SW guy
 
@AnkitSharma doesn't count ;)

Nemon27With The Big Bang Theory having ended recently, I wondered about other enduring TV shows that have featured a live audience.

Q: Looking for the title of an old Cartoon Network show

Peter SzaboI'm looking for the title of an old show, that I saw on Cartoon Network. This happened sometime between 1994 and 1997. The plot - as I recall it, sorry I was 4-7 years old at the time - focuses on a bear, who goes to a cave to hibernate. When the bear awakens, it realizes that a giant structure h...

Q: Changing to the script

asmgxWhen you watch blooper of many shows (e.g. Friends) you realize that actors sometimes change the script a little bit (the meaning stills the same). How flexible are directors for actors changing the script? Is it just a privilege for big actors?
