I don't even get why Labouf gets so much hate. I am not particularly a fan but it baffles me how some people can hate someone so much.

He was pretty good in Indy 4. And he wasn't bad in Fury. I don't get the hate either. He was in shitty movies like Indy 4 and Transformers yeah, but should he be blamed for those movies? Should he be blamed for taking extremely lucrative deals on bad movies? Like Mr. Plinkett said, he's a pretty natural actor. He just hasn't had many good parts and he's not really a top of the line actor like Daniel Day-Lewis or something.

He's not bad, but pretty mediocre. I'd say the hate comes from the fact that nearly every role he had was that of an annoying character. Not his fault, of course, but it comes with the job.

In this case, he was simply acting out what some students wrote for him to perform, leaving the green screen in the background so that people on the net could make good use of it. I don't know if you missed the point of that or thought he was serious. :grin:

I thought it was in some sense serious. I mean motivational speches in general, you know the hunt your dreams, never give up, you just need will power crap they love to throw around.

There are more than 6 billion people on this planet. Could you imagine everyone to succeed with his dreams? I mean sure, you can try. I am not going to tell you should not try it. Just dont expect it. It is like the lottery. Everyone can win. But not everyone will. In truth the chance to fail is MUCH bigger. So this you just need will power and just do it speches kinda feel stupid. But that's me.
 
6 billion, 7 billion or 10 billion. Does it really matter? I mean you get the point. There is now way that everyone on this planet will ever have the chance to really fullfill his dreams. That is neither realistic nor is it even physically possible.

See, the G7 states, you know Britain, Germany, USA, Japan etc. are all together around 800 million people. And so far they consumed 40% of the resouces on this planet.

And now we have also the Chinese and the people of India on the horizon. What would happen if they all try to be succesfull and trying to achieve their dreams?

But it sounds nice when someone tells you in a short video that you should go and hunt your dreams/goals etc. No matter how unrealistic they are.

Yeah, the video went completely over your head and hit the wall behind you. See if you can turn around and catch it.
 
I was talking about motivational stuff in general. I got it by now that Shayalbuffs video has a complettely different context ...don't worry. I am dense. But I get it now.

Haha. I know man. Just giving you shit. I agree about motivational speakers in general. Nothing gets me less motivated than a speech intended to motivate you.



Quotes about Fallout 4 from around the web:

"The only thing I found cool about the trailer was the reveal that the Fallout narrator was an actual person who lived during the Great War. Specifically the brief stutter when he realizes civilization is about to be fucked, breaking the nihilistic indifference and faint mirth with which he has always seemed to regard the Fallout universe."

"You just know there's going to be a quest that somehow relates to throwing tea off of a boat."

"I love how bethesda looked at Fallout and Fallout 2 and said, lets basically make this elder scrolls, but set in the future, with slow motion head shots, and nukes!"

"Lol people complaining are gonna looks so dumb when this game comes out. this shit is gonna be epic. there is absolutely NOTHING to complain about"

"Who cares, give me elder scrolls 6 already"

"If these games piss you off so much, why the fuck do you care then?"

"I hope three dog is back, can't wait for this game."

"Awesome, I just hope it's by the people behind 3 and not Obsidian, New Vegas was good but it felt uninspired and more like an expansion and it just didn't have the same magic of 3.'

"Meh."

"Thanks Obama"

"That's one big pile of shit"

"Nice to see the USS Constitution still intact after a few hundred years and a nuclear war."

"That dog could use some HairWorks. Honestly this is the worst looking open world game on current generation, I can see why people are disappointed. You have games like Dying Light for example, this is pretty underwhelming next to that even. Bethesda makes games on the cheap side, relatively, they never spent a fortune on any of their RPGs, it's a plus for them. They don't do performance capture, or having several voice actors or spend money making cutscenes, there has always been little artwork variety too with a lot of repetitive assets but the end results turned out better than what you would expect."

"The German Shepherd flicking the child's mobile cross-cut with the parents looking over the crib brought a tear to my eye. The sense of loss is so palpable."

I will filter out the Internonsense for a while. I have been able to numb myself to hearing the word "EPIC!!!!" used to describe everything so I think I can manage.

I can't sleep again, so here I am. Nights run into days. Darkness blankets me in the sweet solitude that I desire. Although I do miss the light of the sun, enjoying the times I do see it, I am content with this existence, living on the fringes of society.

Oh and Konami is pretty dead.

Summer's arrived here in sunny old Cornwall, and you can already hear the disgruntled moans of "Bloody tourists" emit from every aging Cornishman and Cornishwoman in the entire county.

I swear, Cornwall can sometimes feel like an odd little country of it's own. It's like the North Korea of Great Britain.
 
I shall have a son,
out of Cornwall shall he come,
that shall be a wild boar,
bristled with steel...
he shall be a man most brave and
noble in thought​
