    Hi! I read your comments in my recent amcheck. I always thought that "like X" referred to other things similar to X without necessarily including X, whereas "such as X" necessarily includes X, but implies there are other things similar to it. (Basically, such as emphasizes X, while like emphasizes the similarity) Was I totally wrong about that?

    So like, what does it mean when they say an actor never breaks character, even when the cameras stop rolling? Isn't that kind of weird? What if the director needs to correct them or they need a glass of water or something. Think like Heath Ledger and Jared Leto as The Joker, are they gonna be all insane and stuff doing their IRL business? that seems weird man.

    Don't you hate when you are wearing a bag and the bag is like not filled so it feels very uncomfortable to carry because it's just like kinda bouncing everywhere? obviously when it's overstuffed that's uncomfortable too. I guess every bag has an equilibrium weight value to feel just comfortable enough

    as a bag gets heavier the straps get tighter until it reaches max equilibrium (this is real, the tension force increases with weight but reaches a stopping point); after that it just digs into your arm instead of being distribvuted

    Yeah Amazing 2 is pretty obviously bad but Amazing 1 is not quite as obvious. It's kind of "disguised" as a good movie, if that makes sense.

    Gwen Stacy is usually considered to be the best part of the movie, but she just does not work at all, tbh. Yeah, she has really good chemistry with Andrew Garfield and they are cute together. But I think their chemistry is so good that it covers up the fact that there is actually no substance. She really has no personality beyond being cute.

    I really hate that they tried to make her an action hero too, like in the first movie and the second she keeps trying to help Spider-Man fight villains. It is so stupid. People keep thinking that "strong female character" means that they have to fight and be brave and all that. But that's not true! You can be a strong female character and still get captured and not be a fighter. Physical action is not the only type of strength. But no, they wanted to make her an action hero who runs over Electro in a jacked police car and torches Lizard. The great irony is that by making her an action hero they actually made her a weaker character by making her like a sidekick to Peter and taking away all of her personal goals and motivation. At least she had goals in Amazing 2? But that movie was a mess anyway, and part of it was her subplot overshadowing Peter's. What a mess loool

    Honestly I think the worst part of it was the conspiracy with his father, like what??? are they even trying to do.

    Wheras original 1 had a nice origin story faithful to the comics, amazing 1 was a pretty nice "teenager" spider man. More ultimate than amazing fantasy. And I liked that it worked, cause garfield was a jokey guy, skateboards around and takes pictures as a hobby rather than an obsession.

    But then they tried to...make it something BEYOND what could have been just a fine set of characters in a fine chain of events and making it about a big overarching subplot with stacy's dad and oscorp conspiracies and like what? just come on

    Honestly, Tobey was a billion times better than Andrew as Spider-Man. I like Andrew Garfield as an actor and I appreciate that he really likes Spider-Man and wanted to play him, but I didn't like him that much. People say he was jokey but yeah he was jokey in like one scene? With the carsnatcher. Besides, it's so incredibly jarringly out of place when the movie is SO dark. The Raimi movies' tone was so much better, it could be fun but still be serious. Amazing Spider-Man movies were just way too dark. And it's not a shocking or adventurous kind of dark like The Dark Knight. They are just literally depressing to watch because they are so sad and melodramatic.

    careful, I hear if you take too much Jaden Smith you lose track of who you really are

    do you ever watch or read any of those videos/articles that tweak the prequels? some of them are really bad but others have some nice ideas I wish were used

    Also like the idea that the clones were the bad guys. This honestly wouldn't change much since the bad guys were all droids who are all the same anyway. This would make sense because like I said before I never got why the war was called the Clone Wars and it was named after the army of one side? Rather than being called the civil war or something. If the clones were the inciting group, that would make more sense. Also we could still roll with the Republic not having an army and the clones threat forcing the Republic to make an army which would become the stormtroopers. From then on it would be mostly the same but just make a bit more sense. We would need a new excuse to kill the Jedi though since these are normal guys and don't have Order 66 programmed into them. Normal guys wouldn't kill the Jedi, and Revenge of the Sith never really gave a good reason why people wouldn't like the Jedi anymore. It didn't matter since all the Jedi were already dead, but in this case it'd be normal guys doing it so they need a good reason.

    the character John Blake suffers from the inherited genetic condition Primary Cranial Hyperhidrosis. Many people assume this line of dialogue is a reprimand for Blake's rash suggestion, but in truth it is simply a literal reference to the temperature of his cranium. The rising smoke indicates the sewer is already quite warm, so it's admirable that Foley is concerned for Blake's safety.
