What are your favorite "calvary coming to the rescue" scenes in movies/games/shows?

Mine has to be in Avengers End Game when the portals started opening. The audience went nuts.

Cavalry. The cavalry come to the rescue. Calvary is the hill where Christ died.

I don't understand how the entire human race can mercilessly slaughter millions of living organisms every time they wash their hands and that's encouraged. But when Dany "murders" a bunch of civilians by "burning them to death" suddenly that makes her "a bad person.

Also, worse death was probably the "Shame! Shame" nun. I don't know what happened to her but it was probably terrible.

Worst we see on screen might be Oberyn or Talisa.

They did what now? I am not going to see this movie and it would have remained inconsequential to my life had I not read this secret. What's the deets?

SPOILERS Black Widow and Hawkeye blew up a building to kill a BBEG, and the BBEG's daughter was collateral damage. but SPOILERS she didn't actually die, she became a super deadly assassin, and SPOILERS at the end of the movie Black Widow atones by saving her life.

Weekend Plans

What is everyone doing?

I am going to try and watch a scary movie this weekend. Not sure what yet.🤔 I also need to find a stupid cicada shell on Animal Crossing. Other than that, listening to NoSleep as usual and cleaning the house.

When Gandalf and the Rohirrim turn up in Two Towers.

(Literally the cavalry heh.)

Oh, ok. Thank you. Now I see this secret is complete nonsense

(Anonymous) 2021-07-23 10:30 pm (UTC)(link)
They always are.

Meant for secret #1, I'm guessing :)

Right, like the old one didn't advertise every property WB owned at the time. Maybe it wasn't good, but it wasn't a commercial.

Listening Grand Theft Auto: Vice City's radio stations on Youtube, and maybe hoping that my cubital tunnel lets up so I can relax and get some writing done.

I think it would refer, in context, to the pace of a a personal relationship developing? But I think that's also mostly in context of their general relationship.

I think that's just...applying hardcopy ownership mentality to a digital steaming service? You're not paying for each individual series, you're paying for an entertainment service.

It's more like if back in the day of video stores, you could rent unlimited amounts of films for 10 bucks a month. Which, even then, would have been a decent deal.But even there old films would get discarded, and new ones would be added to the catalogue.

If you prefer owning something, it's probably still better to buy a DVD or blu-ray box. But I find for me, I really don't need o own most stuff I just want to watch once.

yup. oops.

I've been, uh, on a bit of an Alan Cumming binge (I may or may not have submitted a few secrets about those movies/shows this past week...) and just found out that Reefer Madness: The Musical is free with ads on Prime. Hell yeah, haven't seen that since college, it'll be interesting to see how it's aged.

I mean, narratively speaking? Because Dany did not get a redemption arc and it was not that kind of show.

On a motivation/personal arc level...Natasha accepted one person as collateral to take out a very bad man AND defect from an organization that used her as a killing machine.

Dany decided to burn down and entire city of innocents, while it was entirely possible to go after Cersei, and Cersei alone specifically.

When dealing with fictional characters, knowing their motives do matter. Knowing which choices they haven do matter.

I take your point but I think that moving to a model where increasing amounts of content is available exclusively on an entertainment service basis, where you're paying for subscription access, with no option to purchase a hard copy instead - that's an incredibly bad change from a consumer's point of view. Increasingly, things simply aren't available on DVD or Blu-Ray. You can't buy them in physical form even if you want to. That's really awful for consumers for a host of reasons and it's not a change that consumers have been given any choice in.

Not really relevant to OP’s point, but is the Disney+ catalog a rotating one? I know HBOMax is, and of course the other streaming services, but I haven’t heard anything about Disney taking anything off their service once it was added. Have I just missed it?

The Knights of the Vale arriving in Battle of the Bastard was great.

The little sisters showing up at the end of Bioshock was also a fantastic moment.

But what if staying on your island is their dream?
