      I know right. If it predated the civil war, then you can expect some real really fucked up lyrics. What's the tune to 'I'm building a Home' from RDR2, then (Insert Clip form Smii7y and friends in that one civil war sim game.) Then folks made it less offensive by making mumble music before it was actually used for rap.

      When I was little, maybe like 7, my dad brought me a cd with the words "777 games" on it. It had hundreds, if not exactly 777 games in it. Snes, Nes, Gameboy emulators with many roms and many pc games too. I had so much fun randomly clicking around discovering games all day. A few years later, the cd broke in half. I got teary eyed when my mom showed me the broken cd.
      Thanks for reading a childhood story of mine like I am a mumbling grandpa.

    Regarding the “punch when you say kick” thing, that was actually a go-to move for Goku in early Dragonball. He started out by saying Jan-ken-pon and then either poking the eyes (scissors), chopping (paper), or punching (rock). As the series continued, he’d start mismatching the movements to surprise enemies.

    For anyone interested, it's "wuxia". It's off-putting to Western audiences a lot to see martial artists flying and spinning so much in the air but it translates into "martial heroes". It's super akin to the more commonplace fantasy where folks can cast fireballs and use other types of magic but instead think extraordinary martial art and physical abilities with wuxia. I'm terrible at explaining so I'm sorry!

      I did mention wuxia later ("if it was filmed like any old random wuxia film...").
      It is a world renowned film, and it made a big impact, but that doesn't inherently make it a good movie. It certainly was the right kind of movie at the right time in many ways.
      And yes, if you were to say all that, you'd be correct. But the movie had so-so action sequences vs. many other wuxia and other types of action movies, a mediocre at best plot ("forgettable" means a different thing than "I forgot it because of ADD"...), the only really above average things about it were the visuals, the cinematography and admittedly the set work was very good.
      It's not a bad movie by any means, just not a very good one overall, but the immensely pretty visuals carry it quite far.

Playing an old PS2 game with no in-game control options and refusing to look in ANY SORT OF MANUAL for the controls when the game said "Press Action button" and he didn't know what Action was. Literally GLANCE at the manual. Instead he ran away from the door, attacked the torches, went to two other blocked doors, ran around the back of a building, all CLEARLY not "press the Action button".
