Is Lion a pink Pearl? They do share some similarities…
Lion could be a Pink Pearl that tried to help in the rebellion by shape shifting to a lion (possibly because she felt wrong fusing but wanted to become stronger), but waited too long and got stuck in that form? Amethyst does warn Steven not to shape shift for too long.. SU wouldn’t have brought it up if it wasn’t a major element. The gem could also be hidden under Lion’s mane somewhere.
or lion could be a corrupted pearl who still has an innate instinct to serve rose quarts, or rather steven quartz universe.
I can’t even tell you how excited I was that they turned this book into a movie and it was good
I literally have absolutely no complaints with the movie at all. Once, my friend and I did comparisons from the book and the movie, and we found the only major difference was the fact that Stanley wasn’t heavy set when he arrived at the camp in the movie. The majority of the script is raw quotations from the book. This is my favorite book to movie adaptation and it did everything Percy Jackson, Inkheart, and The Golden Compass didn’t.
And the only reason Stanely wasn’t heavy set was because in the book he loses tons of weight and eventually ends up being almost thin. The director said he didn’t want to force an adolescent boy to lose weight on such a quick filming schedule, and L’bouf’s audition was so spot on, that they decided to go with a thinner Stanely from the beginning
And I’ll support directors actually giving a crap about their actor’s health.
Trivia: The guy who made Donnie Darko and Southland Tales wrote the first draft script for the Holes movie. It involved Stanley being in jail for murder, and the boys where digging holes into different dimensions.
This script upset Disney executives so much they fired him practically instantly and opted to just call up Louis Sachar and ask if he would be willing to adapt the book into a movie script.
Now I kinda wanna see what the original movie was gonna be like
Fucking Dark souls players think they are so good at video games
try playing ghost and goblins you fucking pussys
Then, as their spirit begins to drain while still in the first area, tell them they have to beat it TWICE, IN ONE RUN, just to get the real ending.
“How dare you enjoy a challenging but rewarding and well designed game. Back in my day we had shoddily designed bullshit that was intentionally filled with poor design decisions and artificial difficulty because otherwise players would finish the game in ten minutes and we LIKED it.”
Older games were bound by their graphical and technical capabilities. This does not make them “shoddily designed”. They could only fit just so much content on a cartridge, which limited the scope and features of the games. At that time, game development was also prolific, and many titles needed to distinguish themselves from other franchises in regards to the obstacles set before the player. We’re not talking about some LJN bullshit here–we’re talking about a well-respected game. “Mega Man” was a difficult game. “Castlevania” was a difficult game. “Ninja Gaiden” was a difficult game. OF COURSE difficulty is added to a game to increase its lifespan, because this was not a time of open-world MMOs. Nowadays, they try to drag out a game’s lifespan via new game+ features, achievements, and DLCs.
Older games are still “video games”. Especially with retro-styled games such as “Shovel Knight”, there’s no reason to exclude them. Not having HP bars, save points, or methods of healing is no longer done these days because they don’t NEED to be. We’re ABLE to include these features, and many more. To actually go back to stricter limitations is a legitimate challenge that should not be undermined simply because it came from a simpler time. Newer games are difficult for different reasons, and its frankly disrespectful to disregard what came before them. Without Nintendo, no one can say if we would even HAVE video games today.
Ghost and Goblins, Ha, No, have them try 10 minutes of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde., then watch them really rage about difficult gameplay and challenging odds.
Um, excuse me, but this discussion is about video games of at least average quality, not methods of torture.
ET on the Atari.
Have you ever played pacman? that game gets so fucking tough I don’t even think it’s possible to get to the end
