    • @davvolun
      @davvolun 3 года назад +395

      Um Actually, it's not that they didn't have the rights per se, it's that Warner Bros wanted to reserve Joker for the movies so they wouldn't "water down the brand." Why that doesn't apply to ANY OTHER VILLAIN they used in Gotham, I don't know, or more importantly why they chose to water down the brand anyway with the terrible version of Joker in Suicide Squad. Oh yeah, and the final look at "not Joker" in Gotham couldn't look any more like Joker anyway (minus the green hair they apparently weren't allowed to use).

My understanding though, is that those restrictions did come in the form of WB not giving Fox the rights to use the Joker character, and the show more or less got around that by avoiding certain specific trademarks ie the green hair.

      I mean no. He is the joker it’s just that they weren’t allowed to call him that. In the final episode he claims he wants a new name but can’t settle on one, only knowing it’s something beginning with “j”. In a similar manner they’re never allowed to call Bruce “batman” even in the final episode but that doesn’t mean he isn’t batman.

      I love the fact that it was the egg coating that is the life skill that Brennan has lol
      (I think it's called the cuticle btw).
      Also um actually, the eggs are also refrigerated in Australia xD
      Which is because we also take off the outer layer, the dust. The reason for that is because if you don't wash the eggs and your hands before you crack and open the eggs, it can lead to salmonella.
      Buuuut on the flip side, taking off the protection means if you take it out of the fridge and let it stay in the bench for too long, that's when the salmonella gets u into the egg.

    • @smalltime0
      @smalltime0 5 месяцев назад

      ​@@Kewlausgirl Umm, Actually we do it because we refrigerate it in transport. If you heat and cool the egg repeatedly it forms condensation which allows bacteria to permeate the shell. We don't remove the outer layer, and all countries remove the dust prior to packing. As per Health Victoria:
      "Do not: repeatedly move the same eggs to and from cool conditions. This causes condensation on the shell, which allows bacteria to enter the egg."
      "Do: store eggs in their outer boxes at below 20 °C, until displayed for sale."
      The eggs go to depots on refrigerated trucks that are set to 0-2C, when they are ready for dispatch they are taken out and sorted and often placed on a truck alongside frozen items to go to the supermarket. They're considered the least priority to put away (there is stuff like fish and meat that really need to go in first). As the rear of a store is often not air conditioned (and can easily be 30C+ in summer), they're stored in the fridge before going on the shelf (eggs should never be stored in an environment >20C).
      To avoid that repeated heating and cooling, they're on display in refrigerated units.

    Um actually I 100% agree with Kirk on The Simpsons question: the Be Sharps didn’t win the Grammy until Chief Wiggum had left and Barney joined the group and Homer saw Marge’s new bumper sticker. “Baby on Board” won the Grammy and it had nothing to do with Chief Wiggum’s initial involvement because he had left. Saying Chief Wiggum was a member of the “Grammy-winning” Be Sharps would be like saying that Ryan Ross and Jon Walker were part of the Tony-nominated band “Panic! at the Disco” when in reality the Tony the band was nominated for was in 2018, LONG after the band was reduced to it’s final member Brendon Urie. Referring to the band being specifically “Grammy-winning” negates Wiggum ever being there because the band was never Grammy-winning when he was involved back when the quartet would sing at Moe’s Tavern to their only audience member, Barney.

      I think it depends on how you look at it. My best comparison personally is for example the military unit citation.

Therefor the statement "award-winning group Be Sharps" is technically correct.

    Um, actually to answer Brennon's question regarding why Dorne was never conquered by the Targaryens is because the population of Dorne was not compromised of either The First Men or the Andals, the two most prevalent ethnicities of Westoros, but instead primarily decedents of refugees from Essos that fled the expansion of the Valyrian Freehold. Basically, they knew about dragons, knew how useless conventional warfare was against them, and understood the tactics required to defeat Aegon's army.

      And um actually; if you count the Riverlands and the iron islands as two separate kingdoms currently conquered by King Harren, there are *7* kingdoms: the north, the Westerlands, the eyrie, the reach, the iron islands, the stormlands, and the Riverlands. The Riverlands had their own kings in the past but had been conquered by the iron born at the time of conquest, and aegon appointed the Tully’s as riverlords. So there *were* 7 distinct cultures and political groups who add up till 7 kingdoms. With dorne; there are 8

      Um actually, there is nothing in any Zelda game that suggests that Koroks are somehow a lesser version of the Deku Tree. The Deku Tree is the protector of the forest and is likely related to the Koroks, which are spirits of the forest. But the Koroks, at least in Wind Waker, the game they first appeared in, are stated and shown (through the former Earth Sage) to be an evolution of the Kokiri which appeared in Ocarina of Time. In that game we also see the end of one Deku Tree and the birth of the next, and the process doesn't involve the kokiri in any way. While it's not clear which timeline Breath of the Wild falls into, the Deku Tree hasn't appeared outside of the Adult Timeline, which is also where the Koroks first appeared, making it plausible that the Deku Tree in BotW is the same Deku tree we witness being born in OoT. And not some sort of super Korok. They're related in that they're part of a spiritual ecosystem working together, and the Koroks revere the Deku Tree as their Guardian Deity - but the one doesn't come from or grow into the other. Hestu is just a freak of nature.

      He's called the Great Deku Tree in the sense of it being an honorific, not in the sense of needing to differentiate between him and a bunch of lesser deku trees. This is proven by his name in other languages - deku no ki-sama in Japanese, which roughly translates to "Lord Deku" and in French he's called "Vénérable Arbre Mojo" which roughly translates to "Venerable [Deku] Tree" (okay actually its Mojo Tree for whatever reason, but thats silly and an inconsistency with other ways to translate his name. Weird localization decision, honestly.)

      As a big Lost fan this 'it was always purgatory' shit is really infuriating. It's not correct, at all. The only parts that are in 'purgatory' is the flash sideways scenes in the last season, EVERYTHING that happened on the island was real and actually happened. It's a common misconception that stems from a few things. 1. The credits of the finale shows b-roll footage of empty sets/filming locations, which some dumb people took as it meaning none of it was real. 2. Due to Lost being a long show with a weekly format, a lot of people missed out on certain episodes and didn't follow the show very closely, so when they watched the finale, they were confused and misunderstood many things. These same people started the rumors of how nothing was real and it was always purgatory.
      I know for a fact it wasn't purgatory all the time because the show literally tells you it was all real like minutes before it ends. Christian Shepard says (paraphrasing here as i don't remember the exact quote) that the island was real, everything they experienced on the island was real, every death was real etc, etc. And the showrunners have several times stated that it was all real.
      Like i'm fine with people disliking the show and/or the finale, that's entirely fine, but i hate it when people bring up this factually incorrect take that has been debunked by many, many people, but most importantly by the show itself minutes before it ends and then these people spread around the same shit take.

    Um, Actually to answer Brennan's question: Yes by all technicalities the Valeska twins {Jerome and Jeremiah} are meant to represent the Joker. What happened was Warner Brother would not hand over the licensing rights to the character so Gotham was never allowed to expressly call either of them that. Gotham itself was kind of an anthology/amalgamation of a lot of different Batman comics so they used that to their advantage by mashing as many versions of the Joker into the twins as they could. Spoiler warning: The closest they got for Jerome was having him use a Joker from a Deck of Cards on the lunch table to get the Penguin's attention while in Arkham Asylum, plus the whole having his face removed then reattached being a huge refence to New 52; For Jeremiah Valeska, well.... he straight up goes into a vat of chemicals at the Ace Chemical Plant. To this day still baffles me why Warner Bros gave excuses like "wanting the name fore future projects" and "protecting the image" because they let whatever the fuck Jared Leto did be canon representation.
