@aznable quite true, reminds me of that 'Family Guy' skit, with Michael Chiklis from 'The Shield': 'It doesn't matter how much I work out, I will. Never. Be. Muscular'
What I love about this is that everyone sees Avan Jogia as a Canadian first - which is great. However if a white person - who was born in Africa - essayed a role that was originally attributed to a black African they wouldn't say he was African first, they would say it was cultural misappropriation as he was white, the fact that he was African would be overridden - see the problem there? I applaud the efforts for diversity, I really do - but until there is some kind of balance, without the immediate, knee-jerk 'that's racist' to any counter-argument, we will never progress.
As soon as two or more people on Twitter don't like what you have said about something BAM! It's time to draft a statement where you retract your original comment and are apologetic. This world has lost its balls.
@jump overshadowed by Arnie? She holds her own in both films. The second especially is a revelation of her change. I think you are the one under-rating her.
These systems are amazing - play Res 3, Biohazard, Res 2, emulate Wii U, PS3 etc. That's why they are so popular, and they look same cool too. The only possible niggle - aside from the price - is the heating, but by all accounts this thing is ice cold. This or the Win 3...? Choices choices...

Re: Sarah Conner And The Terminator T-800 Are Fortnite's Newest Arrivals
@jump overshadowed by Arnie? She holds her own in both films. The second especially is a revelation of her change. I think you are the one under-rating her.
