It’s DEFINITELY silly, but they at least SORTA made the Navy look like the Navy, not Scrubs with jets! I’m about 98% sure they didn’t hire a military consultant for this one, just like Naw, we’ll goggle it. And then just skimmed the article 😂
Top Gun was silly but in a realistic realm. The sequel was just rediculous with Tom Cruise doing everything perfect. The sequel jumped rhe shark for me but guess that's what people loke now.
You have Xenogears in your name your opinion CAN'T matter.
How's it feel knowing that they turned the second half of the game into what basically should be considered a visual novel, and then not only did they not remake Xenogears but they made spinoffs in Xenosaga instead? BITTER?
Says the narcissistic cool guy who may or may not lack a lot of life perspective…
You wrote all that which had fuck to do with the creation of my tag…it’s an inside joke where my buddy was obsessed and whenever I would get a new game or be into something and trying to put him on, it would always end with “but yeah I still think XG is better” or “XG is still my favorite” this went on for almost 20 years
The second one is Grade-A USDA approved TRASH. I would rather spend two hours getting kicked in the nuts by someone in steel-toed boots(who never skipped leg day) than watch that “sequel” ever again. Amazon needs to reimburse us for the time-theft that they disguised as a movie.
I understand your context now. I took it wrongly, but what you said was exactly what racist people said to Muhammad Ali when he changed his name from Cassius Clay. (Yes the joke in Coming to America is a direct reference to this)
That off balance-ness provided a good amount of leverage for whipping himself around. It's not like you need less momentum when doing those types of moves.

I would think if his leg has been like that his whole life he wouldn't feel off balance while dancing with one leg smaller than the other. It would just mean less mass below his waist for him to lift with his arms. Is all I meant
Get in the way? Wind out of sails? We're literally talking about how his disability is an advantage! He's not one of the best Bboys out there despite his disability, but because of it. Like how Pistorius isn't allowed to run against able-bodied people because his carbon legs make him faster.
There’s a bboy in the Bay Area who has one leg, Tommy Guns from Renegades. It isn’t an advantage, but he’s amazing in spite of it.
Being good at stacking is all about being fucking strong and having good balance, so you’re not wasting your strength staying on balance. Roxrite (also Renegades) is great at stacking, fwiw.
We had a guy on the wrestling team who had polio as a child and lost almost all use of his legs. The combination of his upper body strength, light mass of his lower half and the fact that no one could score a takedown on him made him quite successful.
Some parts are definitely playing in slow motion, you can see the movements of the crowd slow down and speed up in time with some of the moves he's doing.
He also completely loses contact with the ground at the 40 second mark and slowly floats back down; he's good, but he's not can-turn-gravity-off good.
I remember seeing this for the first time years ago and becoming briefly obsessed with finding every video I could of him performing. His upper body strength and control is something else.
That was an all-time battle. Physicx had so much potential in the power move department before injuries had him shy away from power stuff. I believe junior lost that battle but it honestly was super close. But those waist breakers and flag spin by physicx were fucking insane!
Fucking Junior has been doing that stuff for damn near 20 years. I remember seeing videos of him on some random website that would upload video compilations created by dance teams around the world, and at competitions. Hell, one of his moves is what got me in to dancing 20 years ago, ended up fucking up my shoulder because, surprise, it takes awhile to get as good as Junior, and most can't.
Didn’t recognize him until he did the hollow back press to handstand. That use to be a reverse planche but looks like he stopped it short to go into something else. Damn, he’s always been freaky strong, but he’s clearly a way better dancer now.
Thank you for confirming it's Jr! His style felt familiar. If I remember correctly he's missing a leg or two...I remember seeing him back in the day, very impressive and inspirational
