Every film-maker who had their material criticised because “No one is that stupid” or “People would work together” deserves a gods damn apology.

Yeah, I hate the term so much. It’s true that commission and having an eye for what’ll sell takes a sliver out of the creative joy but there are side projects to rekindle it.
I want the next zombie apocalypse movie to have people saying it’s a government hoax to take away our freedoms to shop at the zombie infested mall.

I don’t think it’s as simple as calling people stupid and leaving it there. Most of it comes from an incredibly irresponsible government response from the beginning of the pandemic, and the rest comes from thinking too small scale and not understanding the rule of large numbers - you saw that a lot with people saying ‘well there’s a 98% survival rate so I’ll most likely be fine’.
They’re not stupid. They miss their friends and are willing to do something that is irresponsible and carries a small but present risk to everyone who attends and everyone around them in order to see them, and they trust a government that people should be able to rely on in a functioning society

Consider also the almighty market forces slowing down the rate of vaccination and guaranteeing new and aggressive mutations by refusing to distribute the vaccines properly and clinging white knuckled to patents in a crisis.

I’m 100% sure the response to any such movie would be the conservative backlash because they recognise the patterns reflecting their own behaviour in the movie, thinking it’s cheaply made to dunk on the pandemic-is-a-hoax people…
…while as evidence shows, the movie would be literally the most realistic depiction now.

2012 (the film) was a window into reality, I am not accepting questions at this time.
(Same with Elysium.)
kids have been hanging in the clothes lines so one has no tension to it at all.
I wish people would actually raise their spawn to not be little dumb people

Taurox, and his campaign by extension, are obscenely fun.
It’s not even turn 40. I genuinely didn’t notice, I’ve been too busy tearing around with the movement boost ability, punting armies, cities, lords, anything and everything. Between his traits and research Taurox now has about -9 turns to Siege duration, nevermind the fact that the vast majority of his army is now Minotaurs, Gorebulls and some Ghorgons (still working on a maxed out mino-horde), so is by definition a walking siege weapon.
I think any Khorne mechanics for TW3 are in very safe hands. Blood for the Blood God!

Just completed a Malagor campaign and I feel this too. He zooms around the battlefield, dropping crows like a B-52
(he can also remove immune to psychology which is insane)

had this happen too, but the neighbour below me gave them a proper shouting - the kids disappeared ever since

Minotaur units are pretty tough as nails as is, Hero and Lord versions doubly so and Taurox is in something of a league of his own.
But even then, it’s just the Momentum mechanic, and the movement replen that comes with it, that is staggering; I’ve culled Tretch, Morathi, Malakith and the Sisters factions already and, like I said, I didn’t even realise it was pre turn 50!
“Brass Bull literally too Angry to stop!”
Already sworn if I catch them in the process they will be physically carried to their parents and their parents will be told to raise their kids.
Though I have my doubts much will come from it.
Aldru will hoard all the kids.
False, I will slam dunk the kids into the trash bin where they belong
the demonspawn from the neighbours here do daily banshee screaming for several hours
yes, they have been told to shut up and no, their parents don’t care.
something something that’s how children grow up to be troublesome later on in school or whatever
Honestly the biggest offenders is my turkish neighbors* who refuse to speak danish and their kids 2m from their mom screaming at the top of their longs “ANNE!!!” (Mom)
Please just go over to her instead of yelling, it’ll save us all trouble in the long run.
Though the worst single noise complaint was some little kid with a megaphone just yelling random words at max volume, like little man shut upppppp I don’t want to hear about buns or monkeys or race cars.
*These are the problem neighbors we have left, all the others are legit the nicest people on earth and they also dislike the yelling.
