The Devil invented Heaven so they could send all the annoying Christians there

Nihilism is the brain child of philosophy

But so is existentialism, absurdism, cynicism, and whatever Nietzsche was on about, which all refute nihilism.

This is soulism

Barry has standing in that destruction of natural habitats in the area surrounding his hive has impacted his colony's ability to thrive. His colony is a victim of colonialism. If he can prove that his colony is descended from an earlier colony which cultivated plant life in the New York area that was deforested by humans, then he may be able to argue that his colony is owed a certain amount of land. Charging rent from the human businesses on that land so he can buy honey, Barry would be able to supply his colony with enough honey to get us to the end of the movie's plot.

It's a little more complicated than what we actually saw, but the logic is sound.

Well I'm ace, I hate 99% of those songs, and I hate birdsong.

8 didn't do any retcons. A retcon would be "actually Snoke isn't the main villain, he's just a clone created by Palpatine." 8 was perfectly happy to play nice with all the facts established in 7, and then have Ben kill Snoke as the first dramatic climax of the movie. 8 gets to have two dramatic climaxes because Rian Johnson is a brilliant filmmaker.

When I first got into D&D I didn't know what edition I was playing. I knew there were multiple editions, but I couldn't find the edition number. The box just said Dungeons and Dragons.

It was 4E, and I played multiple other systems before I finally got into 5E.

Well it didn't "undo" anything in 8, it just undercut and betrayed its core themes. That doesn't erase 8, it just spits in 8's face.

It's impossible for 8 to have undercut 7's core themes, because 7 doesn't have any.

Snoke wasn't set up to serve as villain for three films. He was set up to serve for two films, same as the emperor. You're just salty that your fantheory didn't come true.

So, you also maintain that 6 undid 5 by killing off the Emperor, right?

[–] exocrinous@startrek.website 1 points 6 months ago (9 children)

Name one thing 8 undid from 7.

That's the long term plan they won't admit. And that's why it's important to fight these kinds of changes. They want to take enough inches that they'll have a mile.
