Kichichi-chan~ have you heard of Friday Night Dinner?

**Qalbert** · 2011-02-26 13:07

pasting brief summary:

Robert Popper isn’t a name many people will recognize, but he’s been involved with some of the better British comedies in recent years; most notably his co-writing of ’70s school education film spoof Look Around You with Peter Serafinowicz, which even led to him working on a few episodes of South Park. Popper returns with his first solo project, Friday Night Dinner, which is another example of a recent trend to have sitcoms take place in a restrictive location. It even shares some conceptual DNA with Simon Amstell’s Grandma’s House, as they both involve young people mixing with their middle-aged Jewish relatives.

Friday Night Dinner concerns the Friday night ritual of twentysomething brothers Adam (Simon Bird) and Jonny (Tom Rosenthal) visiting their Mum (Tamsin Greig) and Dad (Paul Ritter) for Shabbat. Needless to say, their parents are an eccentric couple: Mum’s obsessed with recording the final of Master Chef while she cooks; Dad parades around topless, eats out of the bin, and is determined to secretly hide some vintage New Scientist magazines his wife wants rid of; and they have a weird next-door neighbour called Jim (Mark Heap) who keeps finding excuses (usually a toilet visit) to intrude on their evening and stave off his loneliness.

I watched the first episode of Skins last night because someone at the place I was at was watching it and I have never seen or heard anything about the show other than it was like Degrassi with sex and drugs

That Tony guy is a twat

Skins is pretty good, although I am not quite sold on the current generation (every two seasons is new characters)

Also, since you'll be reading this thread... Aerith assist looks amazing, you fucktard.

Opens him up with that stun from NOWHERE NEAR HIM and look how long it lasts, easily letting Tifa fully charge an attack, etc

**Callisto** · 2011-02-26 13:31

isn't Robert Popper the guy from Blues Traveler

You can do the exact same thing with tons of assists. She still has to chain the stun from another attack otherwise they can easily dodge it. At a stretch you might not be able to fully charge that HP attack with every other assist (but definitely quite a few of them) but shit... it did absolutely pathetic damage anyway so who gives a fuck if it adds an extra 100 brave to your HP attack when using a different assist would do more than that extra.

**Charismatic** · 2011-02-27 09:01

Right... because those characters aren't obviously wearing shitty gear. You know with a proper gearset that's going to add far more than 100 brave, and seriously..? Did you not SEE her call out the assist from a mile away from seph and still stun... she didn't chain into it with ANYTHING and then aerith even did an HP attack on his ass. Rewatch the video you blind motherfucker.

**Charismatic** · 2011-02-27 09:02

and look at how fucking long it lasts, no other assist gets you that... holy fuck you are stupid.

**Charismatic** · 2011-02-27 09:07

I mean, shit... call an assist from anywhere and get a free pass to do whatever you want. How is that NOT good?

**Kiarax** · 2011-02-27 09:15

WOW you are fucking stupid. How you gonna call me blind when she quite clearly chains that shit from her brave attack? The only reason stun lands on him is because he's still getting up off the floor from her brave attack so he can't dodge it. Yeah, it lasts a while, but so does tons of other assist attacks that DO DAMAGE ASWELL. It's pretty fucking clear you haven't even played the demo to realize that though. You can chain Brave > Assist > HP attack with ANY assist and that's exactly what she does in the video. The only thing that could have made Aerith decent was the brave boost assist, which actually gives more than I thought it would but it still doesn't seem worthwhile over landing a free HP attack combo with an attack assist, especially since it would be easy to punish (if you hit Aerith whilst she does it it locks the assist gauge for a little while, which is a pretty big hindrance).

Do it from a distance without chaining that shit and I'll R+X, congrats you wasted an assist gauge.

**Kiarax** · 2011-02-27 09:16

FUCK YOU'RE RETARDED.

**Charismatic** · 2011-02-27 09:16

1:41 dumbass, chained from nothing, that's all I have to say.

***Blarg*** · 2011-02-27 15:54

argument is silly because there is no way tifa could beat xxsephirothxx like that basically 1on1

**Kiarax** · 2011-02-27 16:02

I forgot about this thread and I just want to point out that Jathaine is still blind as fuck and there isn't even a stun at 1:41, blind ass nigga.
