If the Last of Us gets a new installment what would you want the next game to be?

I personally think that both Ellie and Abby's respective stories are better off being finishing with TLOU2

I personally think that a spin-off would be the next direction, specially because it would give us the chance to see more of the world. TLOU is a very character driven story but I would like to see more of the world. Like, how is the infection and it's results in say Australia

Examples of Rule of Cool in-universe?

One I can think of is Iron Man. Tony Start has a very large ego and cares a lot about theatrics and looking cool while being a hero, so anything that doesn't have a practical reason can be chalked up to "Tony thinks it's cool"

I honestly like this recolor a lot more than any of the black suits in the game

All the other blacksuits have major issues for me. The black suit and symbiote I really dislike the texture. IK Venom is an alien goo but you don't need to make Peter's suit look like a freakin Xenomorph, as for the classic black suit, they managed to butcher the logo.

Being quite honest I really wouldn't mind if this is how the black suit looked in the game

[Not really a trope] IRL things that are so crazy that if they were in a fictional work they'd be called bad writing

Alexander the Great - Dude was a real life Mary Sue and had real life plot armor

the dancing plague of 1518 - People just started dancing and couldn't stop themselves so they danced until they died

It's wild to me that Alonso is one of the most popular drivers when he was involved in the 2 biggest scandals in F1 history

Flavio Briatore is one of the most hated people in the paddock(and rightfully so), and that's partly due to Crashgate yet Alonso, who was the one who benefitted from it has one of the largest fanbases in F1, I mean, make it make sense.

Also, there's no way that he didn't know what was going on, his strategy made absolutely no sense and some people knew immediately that it was shady. But you know, there's no proof of it, it's just super obvious to anyone with a brain

What there is evidence for is his knowledge and involvement in Spygate, where he and De La Rosa were exchanging emails about the Ferrari's design

How clear was Crashgate back in the day?

Nelson Piquet Jr. crashing back in the day was the equivalent of Stroll or Mazepin crashing, you didn't need malice for it to happen, just stupidity. That being said, Alonso's strategy for that race was not risky, it was absolutely nonsensical unless you plan for a safety car like Briatore did.

I remember Felipe Massa mentioning in a podcast that while he initially believed it was just another crash from Piquet Jr., Jean Todt immediately clocked that it was intentional, so to those of you who saw the whole thing unfold, how clear was it that the crash was intentional?

Different timelines vs different universes

From what I understand, a different timeline is one where something was altered and it resulted to a butterfly effect, such as flashpoint. Whereas a different universe is one where multiple things simply are different without any direct correlation. Is this the case or am I talking out of my ass

Tony programmed Jarvis to question him?

In the MCU there are several scenes where Jarvis says that whatever Tony is doing is ill advised such as when he flies for the first time or when he decides to fly as high as possible with the limited arc reactor.

The thing is, Jarvis is an AI that was programmed by Tony, which means that for Jarvis to question his orders, it means that Tony programmed him to do so

Character says something, immediately is contradicted

Iron Man(2008) -

Rhodey: "What am I supposed to tell the press?"
Tony: "Just say it was a training exercise, isn't this the typical bullshit?"
Rhodey: "It's not that simple"

Cuts to Rhodey saying it was a training exercise

The Lego Movie - In one moment Batman says: "I don't mean to spoil the party, but does anyone else notice we're stuck in the middle of the ocean on this couch? I mean, it's not like a big gigantic ship is just gonna come out of nowhere and save us. My gosh." and then immediately after he says that Metalbeard's ship shows up to rescue

Is there an explanation on why Vader didn't go after Jabba?

Jabba and the Hutts were indirectly, but very much responsible for his suffering as a slave in Tatooine as a child and in The Clone Wars movie it's made very clear how much contempt Anakin holds towards the Hutts, particularly Jabba. So with the rise of the empire, I feel like it'd make sense for Darth Vader to want Jabba dead, as he'd get to eliminate someone with influence in the galaxy, which is useful to the empire, and eliminate someone he loathed. Killing him would be a combination of the useful and the pleasant for Vader?

Character(s) gets a hyped up moment, proceeds to do nothing

Justice League Unlimited - Superman makes his famous world of cardboard speech, hits Darkseid a couple of times then gets owned and saved by Lex Luthor

The Suicide Squad - Bloodsport assembling his nanotech gun gets a scene dedicated to it and the music playing it up as a hype moment, but it does nothing against Starro

Ben 10 Generator Rex: Heroes United - This one annoys me. Ben using Upgrade to basically fuse with Rex, this is coupled with the music and the characters logos appearing together, yet this is doesn't do anything against Alpha, I mean, it honestly should've been how they defeat it

Cute/wholesome versions of character that are meant to be scary

Goofy Gods Comics - In Greek Mythology Cerberus is the guardian hound of Hades and had a gaze so threatening that many were paralized by it. In the Goofy Gods Comics he's just a three headed puppy

SCP Foundation - SCP 2662 is a version of Cthulhu, who is usually depicted as a cosmic entity so terrifying it drives those who gaze upon him insane. This version though just wants to be left alone so he can read the newspaper and play video games as well as wanting nothing to do with the cults that worship him

Skips being the one to sacrifice himself would've been a more fitting end

Skips is my favorite character in the cast and the guy who is sort of in his nature to be helpful to people and fix things. Plus it would be a more fitting end for his character in finally being allowed to let go of the burden of being immortal and reunite with his loved one. Instead, all of his best friends are going to move on with their lives and eventually pass away while he will live on by himself

IK this is gonna get downvoted but I really don't like 2003 Clone Wars

To me it had several moments that were to shonen anime-esque for the Star Wars universe like Mace Windu easily dismantling the battle droids with the force and crushing Grievous' chest(where was that in the battle of Geonosis) and Grievous easily destroying a bunch of jedi by himself
