Nice! Speaking of which, what was the inspiration for Barbeau's name, if any? William Barbeau (the baseball player from long ago who was, in a kind of messed-up way, named "*** Barbeau" because a reporter decided he looked Japanese [it was around WWII, I believe])'s the only one I know.

It's a French surename for a smith who makes fish hooks.

It was his father's name.
His mother was a sea demon that lived in a cage.
You can probably connect the dots.
Oh. Um. That's a pretty interesting backstory.

I did state that this was my opinion. In response to the guy that said I am looking in the wrong places, I am looking at a wide spectrum of stuff. I never said there wasn’t good output, but that overall, industries like Hollywood and Disney aren’t putting out a lot of great movies or films like they used to.
Thats not saying that nothing they put out is good, but that most of it is pretty mid, in my opinion.
To the fourteen-year-old, I actually agree with you and think you might have misunderstood me. I, too, love Star Wars as a setting and universe. But I also think the prequels suck. Doesn’t mean we can’t have good stories anymore, which is why I mentioned Andor, as it is pretty sweet!
CGI/GFX budgets have been kinda lame recently, in certain spots. Transformers 1 is used a lot in comparison with The Flash movie or whatever. I think it is fair though. HOWEVER, I think it has more to do with the movie direction than actual CGI. DUNE is wonderful. But the people in charge of DUNE were more willing to create a better CGI budget and it shows very blatantly.
Personally, I thought this place was just where you can gripe about things, but I seem to have touched a nerve or two. My apologies. I am also pretty sure I mentioned at the end of my first post that these were my opinions. But if I missed that, then again I apologize.
Or, I could have been more specific and said the mainstream media outputs like Hollywood and Disney or whatever aren’t as good a storytellers as they used to be.
I think most people don’t understand and underestimate the effects of mob mentality and basing serious decisions purely off of emotion rather than from a more logical and rational perspective.
Just to clarify for my brand new critics, temperance is always to be utilized. For example, it would be a sad world if we didn’t seek out partners because we liked them or not. But chasing after someone purely off of our more animalistic urges doesn’t always lead to positive places.
Taking into account things like compatibility is very rational. “I like you enough the think about how well we could do together,” is very mature and respectable in my opinion.

You're all good. We're a bunch of (GP)ed-up critics here.
Actually, a question/opinion of the day thread wouldn't be a bad idea, now that I'm thinking about it...

I… guess? I dunno. Personally I’m a duck who thinks everyone in the world should stop reproducing, but I see nothing wrong with that statement, as I assume it does not include aromantic people.
