@Dynamo Frokane I stand by my earlier comments. There have been three good Spider-Man movies and one that is just okay but a victim of its own era.

Just because something isn't blatantly political doesn't mean it isn't. Spiderverse might not be as aggressive as Black Panther but it's still making a statement with its existence and presentation anyway.
the only statement it made to me is i no longer want disney to buy sony pictures
"Annbury is alright. It’s home, I guess? There’s stuff to do, the people who live here are alright… I can’t really complain, but it smells like IPAs and bad weed… that’s just kinda California, I’ve realized."
The city of Annbury is a college town, first and foremost.
It’s populated mostly by the youth for the most part, with only a few older residents. The town is fairly modern and progressive, a product of the people who live there and vote in the elections. There are some smaller apartments off campuses existing mainly for student housing, but for the most part, the houses belong to students at the college who come from wealthy families.
Like a lot of Southern California hotspots, there are a lot of tech startups headquartered in Annbury. These often employ students from CCU as unpaid interns who are looking to pad their resume. Occasionally, this turns into a longer term employment setup, but not often.
Though there’s only one main tourist attraction (a combination zoo and amusement park, with a few roller coasters…), there are still a few things to do around town. Most of it is geared toward college students, with things like a fun center with an arcade, go-kart track, and mini-golf course, a high rate movie theater, and a skate park among other things...
"Okay, so CCU wasn’t my first choice. Or my second. Or my third, but dammit it was my seventh and they let me in pretty easy. Now, I play mini-golf so drunk I can barely stand every weekend. And that? That my friends… is living."
The student body of Cape Córdoba University is vast and varied. With a reach that goes across the world, CCU is open to student applications from all kinds of aspiring students. CCU has a lot of factors that make it an appealing university choice for both American and international students. Boasting a strong NCAA Division 1 program, CCU is a nationally accredited university, offering both law and med school. Students also typically attend the school for its popular and well regarded engineering, computer science, arts and robotics programs.
This is going to be a heavily slice of life roleplay, focusing on the students and staff of Cape Córdoba University. Taking place in the year 2019, its setting will be the aforementioned university, and the town of Annbury, in Marin County, California. Please forward any questions regarding the RP or its content to the GM team: @Hey Im Jordan, @McHaggis, and @Fabricant451.
Regular site rules: No godmodding, no perfect characters, no cybering, etc, etc.
Post your C.S. in the OOC and await approval before posting it. Please refer to the character creation rules for additional information!
We expect everyone to behave and act like mature people. It’s not hard to be excellent toward each other, and that’s really all we care about.
That being said, if there is a problem, PM us about it. We’re nice people and we’re happy to help with any issues that arise.
About activity: try to post once every ten days. We feel this is a fair requirement, and can be helpful in keeping the RP moving. In addition, if you’re going to go on a hiatus, let us know. We’ll work with you to make sure the transition back is clean and easy.
Quality over quantity. We don’t need an essay from you; this is a High Casual (because we’re cowards and won’t say we’re Advanced) roleplay. Just write enough that you’re constantly pushing your character(s)’s story forward.
We will allow collabs, and understand that these can sometimes hang writers up. Let us know if you’re working on something and have reached a hangup.
If you’re planning something that can affect the mood of the roleplay, please let the GMs know. For example, a drunk driving car crash, a death in the family… that sort of thing.
If your characters are going to have sex, you should know when to fade to black — keep it like… TV-14, at a max.
We’re not going to have a set posting order, just try to be active and around.
Real faceclaims mandatory, and should be appropriate for a modern setting.
We’re accepting staff members (professors, IT staff, janitors, etc.) as well as students.
Try to make your characters as realistic/fitting for the setting as possible.
Students can be TAs or RAs, at the GM team’s discretion.
International students are allowed, CCU was designed to have a varied cast.
Well it *was* positive coverage, but the way it was praised and what was focused on made it sound very unappealing. (basically equivalent to think pieces, and just as badly written and half-assed as that implies.) It was several outlets too, likely all copying off each other.
But I'm glad that it seems to be getting generally good coverage, because the trailer didn't exactly hype me up and I like Miles Morales as a character. (And we need more actually well-made animated movies.) But my next challenge is finding someone to *see* it with, maybe I can convince my roommate to go.
That trailerdidn't hype you up? I'm convinced now. You are actively trying to hate things. There's no other explanation for why you act the way you do.
hey y'all! @Hey Im Jordan and I are trying to organize a night for fighting games! Our plan is to play games like Soul Calibur 6 or Tekken 7 every Friday night and just have a good time beating each other up.
If you're interested, let one of us know and we'll get you set up! :)
Yeah this! You can get me on Discord at Jordan#0570. We're hoping to play around 5PM PST (8PM EST).
Is the roleplay going to start this week? :) Since you said 'the first week of December' ;)
As it stands, I'm not completely sure! We've ran into some sickness on the GM team, and if I'm honest? The holidays were at busier than I anticipated! We're gonna try, but I'm purposely not making any promises right this second because I'm not exactly sure. We are working on it though.
I need help guys. I had to buy a new ps4 (my old one died. It was tragic, tears were shed). So I picked up the current bundle which was Spider-Man. Now, I don't care for Spider-Man and I haven't done any looking into the game. Is it worth it to play or to just sell it unused to someone?
play it unless you actively hate spider-man. it's very very good and will probably make you a spider-man fan.
