Checkov's Law and Murphy's Gun seem to mean the same thing.

The first Blade movie actually had the antagonist go out in the sun by using copious amounts of sun screen.

She probably was legitimately attractive by Roman cultural norms and almost certainly leveraged that when dealing with Rome. The smear campaign was more playing that aspect up while downplaying the fact she was a genuine once-in-a-generation genius than making up things about how sexy she was.

I think the Great Plateau is roughly the size of OOT's entire world, so if she only played classic titles that may feel reasonable.

Don't forget that the Wii U had one of the most incompetent console marketing campaigns of all time. Just two years ago I met someone who still didn't know it was a console and not an accessory.

i once went on a two week tour to schools teaching the kids how to swear

I feel like this needs elaboration.

They're probably not ricocheting the rounds off the ground like they're supposed to. Again.

At least the Dunmer are upfront about it. The Stormcloaks hide behind their opposition to the White-Gold Concordat and the Thalmor while being while being wildly racist. In Morrowind, the locals just tell you to your face that they hate you for being an outlander.

Nintendo has been the Apple of the video game world since the N64.

As the largest country on earth it should have an astonishing variety of nature, similar to the US.

Russia is at a much higher latitude, which limits things. It's mostly taiga and tundra, with the Great Steppe in the south. No deserts like the American Midwest or rain forests like the Pacific Northwest.

Thing just made up a scene whole cloth.

It was either in one of the books or an easily missed line in Halo 1, but the Halos actually don't spin fast enough for the amount of surface gravity they have, implying artificial gravity is involved.

The Dark Knight, but keep Bale as Batman.

I'm imagining him eating fluffy cotton stuffing in the most intimidating manner possible.

"Humans Muppets are a disease."

That's Meridia. Her statue looks like this.

I've had people tailgate me in the right lane for miles before deciding to pass, even with a completely open left lane. And it's usually a pickup.

I've got it! It's Shatner's alt account!

To be fair, the odds of removing a dagger from a pedestal doing that are extremely low, even in the survivor trilogy.
