I'd explain why I prefer Civil War but this is not the thread for it. Just know that I'm not a comic book reader and I'm not particularly loyal to either franchise so I just take their films on their own merits.
Alright. Fair point on marketing. I'm just saying that I don't think it's underrated since it earned a lot and people are still talking about it until today.
Lastly, I don't exactly see how my thoughts on Civil War would affect my thoughts on BvS?
You say that but I don't recall BvS being underrated either. The marketing was massive. Trailers were playing all over convenience stores here. Giant banners and billboards on the highway. Every brand whether it's a Telcom company or a phone brand was releasing BvS themed merch. This continued...
I also do not mind real-life settings actually. I also wish there are more stories that involve like, working, careers or even college, as opposed to the multitude of high school stuff. However, one problem I see in real-life RPs is that it tends to devolve into silos. Where people like, do...
Deadlines tend to be a good motivator for me. XD I work as a corporate writer so we do get deadlines and quotas. It's also hard to produce constant pieces of content every day so I still get burnt out.
When I get stuck in a rut, I usually just push myself to finish an article or something even...
Fellow introvert here. It's almost three weeks since our quarantine and as someone who's currently working from home...IT SUCKS.
For the things I appreciate, I like not having to fake being busy for 8 hours if I finish all my quota early. No need to keep glancing over my shoulder and I can...
Lockdown in the Philippines as well. At least, here in Manila where a lot of cases are recorded.
Capital suspended all classes so students have to take online school in order to keep up. Work seems to depend on the company's discretion and what ordinance the city establishes. Ours is under...
I'm a content/corporate writer for this outsourcing company. I basically write blogs, news updates, social media posts, poster copy and stuff. Sometimes, our clients ask the company for content on their web pages so that task falls on me as well.
It pays...well-ish? Not enough for me to move...
If you're worried about a specific person committing harm against you, then why not try filing a restraining order? Or report them to the police if you can provide sufficient evidence and cause for alarm. I mean, there are legal avenues you can pursue to defend yourself. It doesn't always have...
I'm not a kendo expert but, I think this shouldn't happen too much unless you're using a bad form. In any case, kendo is a sport. It's not meant to train you how to fight or kill. It's about mental discipline, spirit and footwork from what I heard. Hence, the use of something that isn't too...
Well, if it's just for practice, then synthetic or plastic sword like objects is probably the best way to go. It's probably cheaper and requires less maintenance and somewhat non-lethal. Comes in all shapes and sizes too. Just ask for items that can be used for sparring or stuff. Wood does...
Swords in this day and age...are not good, and this is coming from a self-styled sword nut like me. As mentioned by Crow above, you cannot carry a sword out in public in most places. Really, the only place you can use it bar dedicated dojos and maybe rennaissance fairs, would be inside your own...
80s-90s Super Robots. Really over-the-top, totally unrealistic without trying to hide it robots. Whether it's Mazinkaiser taking on entire armies or Shin Getter slicing multiple planets with an oversized tomahawk. XD Funny since I've never really been one for too much nostalgia.
I had one.
For two years in college, I had this whole phase where I decided to only hang out with people I thought to be "positive influences". I mean, it's an advice older people here say all the time. Stay away from people who would only hinder your academic success. They really meant people...
Whenever I make a mecha RP, I would always, ALWAYS get at least one guy wanting to use a battle suit. Like, dude. I like Iron Man as much as the next guy but the world-building and aesthetic says "piloted robots". I'd have to rework an entire section of lore just to accommodate one guy. I used...
Kind of? I don't announce that I roleplay. Especially to family. My dad can be very judgemental of my hobbies at times.
If anyone asks, I just say I do "collaborative writing" as well. Or just simply writing.
Not completely dress code related but my high school kind of forbids students from posting swimsuit and swimwear photos on their social media accounts. One girl I used to go to school with got reprimanded because her father posted their beach photos and she was wearing a two piece swimsuit...
