Name?

This field is optional. You can choose any name you want, or you can post anonymously by leaving this field empty.

Tripcodes are a way to identify yourself between posts without having to register with the site. To use a tripcode, enter your name as ‹name›#‹key›.You can choose anything you want as the key—it is private and will never be shown to other posters or stored on the server. For example:

Rarity#bestpony → Rarity!.4PK7yxdII

If you want a tripcode containing specific words, you can download a program designed to search for tripcodes, such as Tripcode Explorer.

Email?

Entering an e-mail is optional.

There are also code words you can enter here which perform certain actions when you submit your post.

  • sage — lets you post without bumping a thread.
  • nonoko — uses the original post behavior to redirect to the board index.

These can be used at the same time as an e-mail address by typing ‹email›#‹action›.

You can also use Skype names in place of an e-mail. The notation is the same as a link to a username on skype itself, which is skype:‹username›

Toxic Nostalgia Shalissa (ID: 9e2f68)Country code: us, country type: geoip, valid:   956

Nostalgia can be great. There's nothing like the feeling of going back to something that you enjoyed from the past and revisiting it. I don't even mind cameos and nostalgia-baiting me into being charmed by a scene. (As cheap as it can be.)

However I've long been jaded to the idea, as most nostalgia is just hunting for what was the most popular shit from the 70's-Early 2000's and splattering it all over something with the expectations that we as the audience are going to clap our hands and begin shitting our pants with belly filled laughter, rivers of tears; and our hearts captured just because Darth Vader poofed in and began twerking for black history month.

I'm bringing this up because of the Dune movies. Let me get this straight: I love the 80's dune movie with Kyle MacLachlan. They got fucking Sting to perform as Feyd, which is hilarious, and he did a really good job. However, I pulled up my blizzard account shit to play some WC3 mods and got an advertisement for Black Ops with some dune promotions. Promotions can be cool, but, just slapping on Dune to a shooter franchise that practically defined the term "Generic" (I'm looking at you Doom Wads); it all just comes off as.. Lame.

I feel like the only people who get hyped for this are the same people that cried while watching the latest Star Wars trailers.

Also outside of the EU and original films (which had their own issues), star wars isn't even that good.

I wonder how many people decide which brand of chips to buy based on what franchise is being promoted on it.

It's a corporate marketing strategy, so more than we tend to think.
