That one we do have an explanation, though. It's when defeating Graham with the required souls that end up acting as a signal that he is the reincarnation of Mathias. The flow of energy from the Chaotic Realm suddenly beelines into him, with the intention of restoring Dracula as he once was. Do remember Mathias himself wasn't bitten either. He became a vampire by creating the Crimson Stone and imprisoning Walter's own soul in it. I've seen the theory that the ball of energy in Chaos is the Crimson Stone, since it seems to shatter as an orb would upon being defeated.

Any positive or even just reasonably negative reviewer is paid off or too terrified to share their "actual" thoughts. Friggin' Harrison Ford is apparently a paid shill. Y'know, the guy who is so well known for his tendency to pretend to like stuff he's not a fan of. Just ask Han. ...and even with all this, people are still not going back to say Skull was good actually lol. That's perhaps the most fascinating part. Even with all their desperation to blame Kathleen Kennedy for the murder of Christ, people still cannot bring themselves to redeem the fridge for the sake of putting the new movie down. 3 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: The ending part specifically, though...

Interdimensional Observer Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 20 minutes ago, Newtype06 said: ...Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi later broke up. Tsukuyomi killed a fertility goddess whose spit turned into food, he found it absolutely disgusting. Amaterasu never wanted to see her violent brother again, thus the Sun and Moon are never seen in the sky at the same time, creating day and night except the Moon can sometimes be seen during the day. Although this story is only in the Nihon Shoki. The Kojiki (Shinto's other important text) has a different fertility goddess who produces food from spit, Ukemochi, she was slain by Amaterasu's other brother Susano-o. In both stories, food grew from the corpses of the goddesses, such as soybeans from Ukemochi's 🍑 and wheat from her 🦋. Those are the origins of the crops we humans consume. 2 hours ago, Acacia Sgt said: Sara Trantoul was bitten. As was Vincent from Portrait of Ruin.

I'd add Stella and Loretta IIRC were bitten at the end of Sisters Mode, assuming that very brief ending to this very simple plotless mode was supposed to reflect how they became vampires before the start of Jonathan's & Charlotte's story.

Interdimensional Observer Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 Is it the case that because F-Zero isn’t a Miyamoto-led project, it gets less love from Nintendo? Miyamoto-san is always thinking about Nintendo as a whole, so I think he didn’t have much time to think about F-Zero. That must be frustrating. The game ideas for F-Zero and Star Fox were created by Miyamoto-san. I just helped to create that world. So why do you think F-Zero gets less attention from the company than Star Fox does? There hasn’t been a new F-Zero game for almost 20 years now. I think it’s because Mario Kart is Nintendo’s most popular racing game, and a new F-Zero would cost a fortune. My impression is that Miyamoto-san is very affectionate about Star Fox. https://www.videogameschronicle.com/features/interviews/takaya-imamura/ C'mon! This isn't the Wii U era, Nintendo has the financial room to sink funds into a game that only barely gets into the black sales-wise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He died of colon cancer in 2020 iirc. They ended up retiring the character and having Shuri, T'Challa's sister, take up the mantle. As a result, the sequel is a movie about loss, as well as how culture shapes people's lives. But there was still a chance for creepy deepfake Chadwick Boseman to show up as a ghost (he didn't thankfully). 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: Also that 16 there worries me a little bit ngl It's weird, they are reincarnated twins. The brother was in his 30s when he died while the sister was only 12. But they've aged 16 years in this new life so I suppose just add 16 to their previous years. So now the guy is mentally 46 while the girl is 28, which at that point age gaps stop being a thing. But then if they get together it's a sweet home Kaga moment. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: wish I could add something, but since Elon's latest fuck-ups I cannot read any twits, and embedding cuts parts of it so...

Although in this case he does have a separate tweet praising Voller's actor so he by default likes it more than the other "saw ___" movies. 11 minutes ago, Interdimensional Observer said: think it’s because Mario Kart is Nintendo’s most popular racing game, and a new F-Zero would cost a fortune.

Ah, so basically, they're lying to make it look like this one guy did not like the movie. And of course, being Kojima, being able to say he did not like the movie gives you extra argument points. Though I will give them that Mikkelsen has proven over time that he basically can't be bad so praising him specifically doesn't necessarily entail he enjoyed the movie as a whole. Still, pretty dishonest to only show half the story. 18 minutes ago, Shrimpy -Limited Edition- said: And in their past lives she was head over heels for him 🍳 Yeah that's okay if he did not reciprocate at the stage when he was 30.
