Rayvin

We have covered this in extensive detail earlier in the thread Not sure it needs to be unpicked. What I will say is that the strong female lead in Rogue One was far better done than Rey. Which is one of the reasons I took great joy in finding that I really liked Rogue One.

There's some really good theories on this:

I think they can improve themselves from TFA here, but they can't just play it safe.

New trailer out. I'm hoping against hope here that what the end of the trailer implies is actually the route they go down, because it would resurrect the whole thing for me. They won't though, they're not dark enough for that shit. The film director has cautioned against watching this trailer because of spoilers, so watch at your own risk:

Nice.

Benevolent dictatorship ftw.

Yep. Democracy is not just a sham these days, it's also a total waste of everyone's time

Wait, she does? I thought that was her surname Shows how much attention I was paying. I thought she was pretty good though. I noticed they made a comment about "the problem being culture, not race" which sounds like something the Alt Right would say Dog whistle iyam.

I never really watched any of the others and have only seen the movies, so for me, it really doesn't matter where in the timeline it is

That's not totally true though, is it? You didn't post your north east top dog thing on there

Yeah probably true. To Shearer's credit he did actually try to pretty open with them, but for instance the Gary Speed bit could have been handled with far more tact than it was. Still though, they're not seasoned interviewers, they're just two guys with youtube channels who can't believe they're sitting interviewing Alan Shearer. The comments under the video were all very supportive in the sense that most people were just delighted that TG had the chance to do it. Tells us that his audience isn't really interested in the in depth stuff, they're invested in TG as a person. That's the way it seems to go on youtube.

I suppose we did cover that.

The glitch definitely saves time, no question about it. Takes about 1 minute to pull off and saves about 5-10 in killing ads throughout the rest of the fight. Basically ensures your flimsier teammates don't die. Our clan leader has the raid shotgun and my god He demonstrated it on one of the cabal standing outside the raid palace as you're running in at the start. It disintegrated him and the guy immediately behind him

Feel like this should be a focal point for you in the psychology thread...

Not a great fan of the other lad either tbh, he's one of the most wet human beings I think I've ever laid eyes on. TG clearly isn't a towering intellect but he is at least, basically, a normal guy. Which is why his questions suck and he relates everything back to himself too much I enjoyed the interview although ultimately agree that a better interviewing team would have made it more interesting.

Anyone wonder what manner of evils are happening in the background while we're all obsessing over this? It's such a waste of public resources. The simple truth to the whole thing, IMO is: We allowed you a vote on the EU because we have consistently scapegoated it, and because we don't think you'll actually vote to leave it in big enough numbers. If we remain, it'll allow us to heal schism in the Tory party, and will also mean we can turn around and say that we gave you the chance to 'solve the problem' in your lives, and you chose not to. Unfortunately, you voted to leave. Your vote was likely driven by a need to lash out at the government over austerity and falling living standards, but we can't come out and say that openly because it calls into question the last 7 years of Conservative rule, and would almost certainly see us obliterated in a GE. We need the status quo to continue because it works for us, and we're prepared to accept overall diminished wealth if we're still rich relative to all of you lot. Also, we're actually pretty scared of taking responsibility for this in full, because who wants to be holding the can for such a monumental fuck up? Added to this, we now have Corbyn in the background threatening to actually solve the things that are really making you miserable - this will make us less well off relative to all of you, and is completely unacceptable.

You can do the last bit without posting tbh. I have a fairly good sense of where they're at from just reading about it. Curious though, why don't you post on NO? They're a far more active community than TT and are aligned with your team.

If she's going for 'no deal' then I'm becoming more convinced that this won't happen. If by design or incompetence she manages to take us to the point where things get so bad that we have to stay, I'll be prepared to say she was a necessary and (accidentally) useful PM.

Only watched the first episode so far. I thought it was fairly well done, although some of the acting is a bit off. Or maybe it's the writing, I'm never quite able to determine between the two considerations, which one makes dialogue look forced and unnatural.

Yeah we just used that glitch to win it. I didn't have much of a say in it tbh, but all it really does is speed things up. I don't think it really makes anything easier in a more general sense since I wasn't dying to ads anyway. But, the raid is done. I got a raid pulse rifle which must be some kind of cruel joke since I hate pulse rifles. Got an exotic engram which is a grenade launcher at 305 on the same slot as the pulse rifle. So, ultimately, pointless. Not too arsed about the prestige raid but I guess this gives me another week to run at the normal one. Our leaders were pretty good this time out but had to take charge myself sometimes in periods of uncertainty. Not natural leaders, I think. Good lads though, in the end.

That'll be it

You think? I wouldn't have thought he could afford the sort of things Shearer would likely charge for something like this. I mean he's doing alright with his channel but even so. I figured it would just be the exposure that Shearer would be interested in really. TG does have 500k subs after all.

I caught that too But aye, I don't think TG is actually very insightful about anything. Impressed he's managed to get to the point where he can justify two hours of Shearer's time though.

Yeah sounds probable. I haven't really been dying anyway tbh, so not too worried on that front. What does no power boost mean? Like no supers or associated abilities? I'll miss the pulse grenades if they go... We one phased the dogs last night so yeah, I agree that taking it to a second phase isn't going to represent a big problem. Mine had two pulse grenades in its eye sockets within 3 seconds of the alarm going off, so determined I was to not be the one who let the team down I think it died in about 6 seconds.

This is true, and I'm in agreement with you - not really worried about La Penne. Having said that though, a raft of socially left wing policies but also a hardline stance on immigration is something that arguably, would tick every working class box there is. I think Macron was the safest bet to win last time out - Melenchon would have been run far closer by La Penne - but France needs to tackle this in the same way we do. Seems to me that, at the moment, the whole Western world is waiting for someone to 'go first' to solve this.
