    Cynical Cash Grabs

    It's not renewing, it's continuing. I'm not 100% sure how it works, I can only summarise a couple of articles I read, but from what I've read a copyright holder needs to actively produce something within a particular intellectual property every so often, or the property reverts to public domain...

    [Politics] Dumb People Protest and Look Dumb

    That is the edited after being questioned version.

    [Politics] Dumb People Protest and Look Dumb

    Did you not read what you wrote, or are you just ignoring it because it doesn't fit with the persona you're trying to project now?

    Cynical Cash Grabs

    Disney has to create something based around its properties every decade or so to keep the trademark/copyright. The complaints about the latest, with ariel being cast with a black woman, appear to be based in racism. I can't for the life of me believe that any of the people that're whinging would...

    Just another glorious day here in Off-Topic

    Dude, how are you surprised by this? The escapist forums have been the inbred child of tumblr and 4chan since at least 2010.

    [Politics] Dumb People Protest and Look Dumb

    You screeched at me about how awful I was, and how much my generation sucked and wasn't worth shit, when all I wanted to do was share something that I loved growing up with the younger generations who'd missed it. You're the kind of person that the people I've spent my adult life fighting...

    It's almost amusing that you're just as much of a totalitarian as the people you rage about, yet are not self-aware enough to recognise it. Almost.

    MCU and Mutants

    Hmmm, fair enough. Thanks for the correction. Were those changes made because Marvel didn't have the movie rights to mutants at the time?

    MCU and Mutants

    Other than Thor, Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch are the only ones I can think of. Captain Marvel probably counts, since her new canon is that she's always been half-Kree but didn't get access to her powers until her time as a Kree Warrior awoke them (or something like that?).

    MCU and Mutants

    Well.. depending on how much influence they take from the comics....

    [Politics] Nazis Attack LGBT Pride Parade

    You're right. My apologies, I did not quite understand the difference. I'd thought that ditching the Queen as our head of state was hand-in-hand with leaving the commonwealth. Indeed. We have enough of our own issues, so importing fake ones from overseas makes less than no sense. People...

    [POLITICS] Religious Discrimination

    Note that our current Prime Minister is a member of a fairly extreme christian sect, much like Israel Folau.

    [Politics] Nazis Attack LGBT Pride Parade

    There are far-right and alt-right people here in Australia who talk about democrats being evil commie socialists and republicans being the heroic leaders that will lead us all to glory. That neither are things that exist here does not seem to dawn on them (well, republicans do, to a degree, but...

    There has not been a single Tom Clancy game that has been good for awhile now.

    What're you on about? Most Splinter Cell games had daylight levels.

    [Politics] - How Likely is War with Iran?

    Do you find that as odd as I do? Lambie is a former Hansonite, and the Centre Alliance have espoused positions closer to that of Anning and Katter than the centre, yet they do in fact seem to be forming a group to block the advances of the totalitarian right (and hopefully the left equivalent).
