  2. Well I’ve been waiting on the status update notification glitch to go away, but it unfortunately sounds like it is a feature, and not a bug after the upgrade.  So now the only way to be notified of updates is by selecting the option where I’ll also be notified of every post the people I follow make on threads which could get annoying fast.  :yeahno:

     

    Looks like I need to get in the habit of using the streams.

  8. Alright, here's the answer to the trivia question from Thursday/Friday.

    Sticking with meteorology. A couple months ago, we learned about radar holes (holes in the US' nationwide nexrad network). Why are these holes so bad to have?

    Answer: D. Radar holes create massive issues in seeing rotations inside of storms due to the height of the beam from the curvature of the earth, which causes the National Weather Service to rely heavier on ground truth in these regions.

    @TheRockARooster @Woohoo @Midnight Danny

  18. well, I just finished watching GMK the other day and...I still find the plot of the sacred beasts to be extremely confusing. they mentioned the warriors of japan killed these sacred beasts (Baragon, Mothra and King Ghidorah) and then, they created these shrines / statues to...worship / pray for them? yeah, that part was...really, really confusing. why would you worship a monster that tried to destroy japan? it doesnt make any sense.

     

    later on, it mentions that the stones work like ancient CD’s (similar to when you chop down a tree and you can see the layers inside. I'm gonna assume it has something to do with the minerals inside and because it's magnetic???) 
    ...and they mentioned spirits are made from electricity, and the old man transferred the spirits of the warriors that defended japan into the husks of the monsters they've "slain" / worshipped??? yeah, I still dont understand that part, at all. it's pretty complex. I'm gonna assume the spirits of the monsters were trapped inside these statues. (cuz they dont wake up til they've knocked down the statues)

    they used the phrase 'home-land' when they were reffering to the guardian monsters. I'm gonna assume japan was their homeland and they were merely defending their land before they were slain by the warriors of japan (who I assume, were also defending their land). because they were regarded as sacred beasts, the warriors worshipped them as deities. yeah, the sub-titles are pretty wonky IMO. I think this is probably the best way to summarise it. 

    (I think this is the 6th time I've seen this film...but this is the first time that I actually understand the plot.) :derp:

    if I were to just focus on the monsters, I felt really bad for baragon. he got the sh*t kicked out of him. mothra was kinda useless (Idk why there is so many people that like mothra, when she pretty much does nothing and she dies in almost every film she makes an appearance in) and as for King Ghidorah, well...he looks way too cute and cuddly. he's supposed to look menacing, but then again, they mentioned it was supposed to have 8 heads instead of three and they woke it up early so it could defend japan / fight godzilla, so I guess that is forgivable. I like how throughout the fight, King Ghidorah gets an upgrade so he could stand a chance against godzilla. that was really nice to see. I like how they made him the under-dog in this film. the only that was worth watching was the fight between King Ghidorah and Godzilla. 

     

    I like the way godzilla dies in this film. when he fires his atomic breath, it goes through the hole in his left shoulder and every-time he uses his atomic breath, it gets bigger and bigger and bigger, and eventually, all of that energy causes him to explode. I love how the only thing that can kill him...is himself. kinda reminds me of Godzilla VS Destroyah. Well, they dont call him the King Of The Monsters fer nothin. =P yeah, he was an absolute juggernaut in this film. 

     

    but yeah, overall...it's pretty good...but the plot is extremely confusing. it's not my favourite, but it was pretty entertaining. :mlp_laugh: ^^

    es28d5av8ft61.jpg

    the one thing I dont like is the origin of Godzilla in this film. he is supposed to be the symbol of the atomic bomb. in this, he is more of an entity. a ghostly figure created from the souls who died in WWII. ehh...it's not my favourite, but...I really like the design. :)

    hey @Samurai Equine and @TheRockARooster, have you seen this film? :ooh: if so, what are your thoughts?

  19. Alright, here's the answer to the trivia question from Friday/Saturday.

    Sticking with meteorology. As we all know, tornadoes can form from supercell thunderstorms. However, they can also form from non-supercell thunderstorms. What are these tornadoes known as?

    Answer: C. Landspouts are tornadoes that form from non-supercell thunderstorms, such as a popup summer thunderstorm. These tornadoes can be extremely photogenic, and are generally weak. But, they can still do damage.
