Hercules and Xena are peak 90's network TV. there's nothing 80's about them. it's like looking at the color green and going MAN! THAT SURE IS YELLO! NEVER SEEN SOMETHING AS YELLOW AS THAT BEFORE IN MY ENTIRE LIFE! YEP, TIP TO TOE, THAT'S YELLOW! and it's fricking green.
i mean i'm not making a list, otherwhise, yeah, Buffy, Star trek Deep Space nine and TNG, Global Guts, GOD i could go on all day. Remember when TV had competent writers? I don't, so i have to download everything because i was like, 7 when most of it was airing and i was watching batman TAS. which also goes on the list.
>it never felt preachy
It felt preachy as frick. It was all about gurrll power and Gabriel being a lesbian was the most woke shit on TV at the time. Just because it had skimpy clothes, doesn't mean it wasn't the cringest wokeshit ever. It was even the start of the bullshit genderswap trash remakes we have in movies today, Xena is literally just Hercules but with a hole.

You weren't even alive when it was on. It was a genderswapped parody of Hercules. Literally one of the first examples of 'here's a thing you like but we made it into a girl!' and the original Mary Sue. The only difference between Xena and Rey is the skimpy clothes.

I was born in 91, and Xena and Hercules were completely different characters. The only significant similarities was that they were both heroes in an ancient Greek setting.
I am currently rewatching Buffy. Stopped in the middle to watch all of Angel. They are somewhat dated obviously but those shows are so damn good. I miss actually meaningful television.
>They are somewhat dated obviously but those shows are so damn good.
It's strange, but I never really get that impression from Buffy. Hercules and Xena feel definitely dated, but I feel like if Buffy came out today in full HD, it wouldn't be weird.

Oh, it holds up very well overall. It's more little things here and there. Angel is worse in that regard. Especially s1 has a very early 00s style to it.

Buffy is extremely dated but it also set a paradigm that persisted in network tv for 20 years after it first aired. You notice some things here and there but the whedon writing crept in everywhere.

Yeah, the HD remastered stuff is fricking horrendous. And that's what they are streaming on Disney+. Downloading the DVD versions is the way to go I think (I'm not 100%).
This will give you an idea but it's REALLY bad.

1) SD resolution. The blurrier picture makes everything blend together more naturally. Even top of the line Avatar-level CG in 4K+ resolution looks dissonant.
2) CG used sparingly. Most of the stuff in that clip is practical effects. Nowadays, CG is usually cheaper and faster than building models/sets/animatronics/etc., so everything is just a green screen.
its one of the 4 pilot tv movies to hercules, there's a torrent on 1337 with all episodes and they are included, there you go, the only place on the internet i found them
>the only place on the internet i found them
This is why I keep some old shows permanently on an hdd. I have all of hercules, xena, lexx and a very hard to find and really shit quality set of all the martial law episodes.
I miss old tv man, it's sad so much of it is just gone if it wasn't insanely popular and could still be used to make money endlessly
You gotta train them. My wife was a virgin when we met in high school. She would just starfish at first but now she fricks like a rocket ship.
Inb4 she's cheating on you. Wouldn't even care it would just give me an easy divorce and an opportunity to get a younger wife without looking like a dirt bag.
>Inb4 she's cheating on you. Wouldn't even care it would just give me an easy divorce and an opportunity to get a younger wife without looking like a dirt bag.
lmfao that's the spirit anon, based
It's almost all communication. Rub her pussy and make her tell you what she likes. Do the same for her when she gives you a handjob/blowjob. Everyone is different and people who are good at sex are just good at communicating. Once you break that awkward barrier it becomes easier. Once the ball gets rolling you'll start being able to tell by her body language what she likes.
Do mojoupgrade and both of you have to be honest. Also be confident and dominant. I've never been with a woman who doesn't love that when it's done right.
I got tested 2 times so far but I read you gotta wait 3 months to be sure of the results >wear rubbers
I did but not when she sucked me off. Anyway I already said enough, don't frick hookers bros.
HIV from penis-in-vegana sex is INCREDIBLY unlikely.
HIV from a condomless blowjob even LESS unlikely, unless it was a shitty crackprostitute with her mouth filled with cuts AND your penis also had cuts.
>it never felt preachy

It was even the start of the bullshit genderswap trash remakes we have in movies today, Xena is literally just Hercules but with a hole.
It absolutely was preachy as frick and Gabrielle was the worst character. My dad is still mad about her character existing and ruining the show with her dykeshit. He has not watched the show in 20 years but if you bring up Hercules in any context he will talk about how great the tv movies were, how much he liked that Armand Assante Odyssey miniseries, and then go off on how Gabrielle began the end of TV for 10 minutes.
Xena had a few very preachy moments. It was just like 6 seasons long - and this was the days when a a season was like 24 eps not this modern era where its fricking 8-12 lazy sacks of shit - so by sheer quantity the preachy stuff got covered by a lot of fights and stuff
How come 90s tv shows were so fun and light hearted compared to modern shows? Seems like everyone was just having a laugh in the 90s and not taking anything too serious.
Cultural Marxism in institutions, people got indoctrinated in college and then they started shaping the culture once they got out and started having power on the job.
Also media redirection after Occupy towards woke shit.
xenas opening was more kino because it didn't have as much voice over talking over it, that's the only deciding factor, and it had slightly better music
Bruce campbell had a fun character in xena and hercules, I made a compilation of him a while back for a friend since he liked him but there was basically nothing on youtube.

I worked with a German girl who looked exactly like young Lucy Lawless. She had unusual opinions though. She was religious and didn't believe in sex before marriage and used to go to mass every weekend and she made strange casually racist comments about black people.

I really want a pulpy fantasy/sci-fi game set in a thinly veiled Barsoom ripoff. Half the authors in that time period were doing that anyway so it'd just make it even more authentic.
Realms of Arkania trilogy, at least cover art and some ingame aesthetic
Pic not related, since those shows were made in the 90's.
They still had that Sword & Sorcery aesthetic from the 80's
Never particularly liked it myself, too American
that's cool, you should have a nice day.

CHOCOLATE RAIN

Zoomer genocide when?
golden axe
If this wasn't cancelled it probably would have had games
we need more BARBARIAN games with 80s/90s MUSCLE MEN aesthetic
fricking love this movie
its like watching tom paris and monica geller on some batshit adventure fever dream
why does this look better than modern . Objectively it looks worse but it still looks better
1) SD resolution. The blurrier picture makes everything blend together more naturally. Even top of the line Avatar-level CG in 4K+ resolution looks dissonant.
2) CG used sparingly. Most of the stuff in that clip is practical effects. Nowadays, CG is usually cheaper and faster than building models/sets/animatronics/etc., so everything is just a green screen.
Also shot on kino film format
I just read that the hobbit trilogy costed more than the lord of the rings trilogy because they did all CG and didn't use any miniatures.
everything was cg in the hobbit which is why it looks like shit.
There's lots of reasons for it costing more. It was also STILL a logistical nightmare with the CGI because they wanted to make it 3D too.
Remember 3D films?
what movie?
its one of the 4 pilot tv movies to hercules, there's a torrent on 1337 with all episodes and they are included, there you go, the only place on the internet i found them
thanks, anon

On a sidenote, it's kinda silly how there's actual lighting within that monster.
it ate a few torches before. nothing silly about that
Legitimately better than Rings of Power.
amazing what you can do with some cheap props, fun characters and good directing
kino
lmfao
amazing
damn
look at xena go
90s and 2000s chads

Hello Ben

How are you married to a woman you secretly want to divorce?
A decade of marriage does that to a man.
you know all those "MUH WIFE" boomer comics exist for a reason. human experiences are a flat circle. we're not so different...you and I.
How do I train mine? We're both pretty shit tbqh

But Xena was from the '90s.
There was a Xena game?
At least for PSX and N64. Not sure if other later consoles or PC had games too.
there's one on the ps2, developed by blast entertainment.
Fair warning, it's absolutely horrendous.
All I remember about the PS1 one was that it had creepy giant spider enemies and the chakram could be guided around the level in first person.
Also, is there a remaster of Xena out there? I never actually made a point of watching it when it was on.
Why did Kevin Sorbo go full moron? Typical culture war brain worms?
Source you dumb Black person.
she would have been a perfect wonder woman
I loved these 2 series. I always wanted to see Hercules frick Xena
Hudson Leick - Something About Sex
Noice!
Man I really wish I could have sex.
Just pay and use protection or hang out in dark alleys and wait for the right opportunity.
I lost my virginity to an escort and have spent the last 2 months worried about HIV so no more hookers for me.
Get tested and wear rubbers, anon.
I got tested 2 times so far but I read you gotta wait 3 months to be sure of the results
>wear rubbers

Can't tell you you're fine but it won't be the worst, don't worry too much.
HIV from penis-in-vegana sex is INCREDIBLY unlikely.
HIV from a condomless blowjob even LESS unlikely, unless it was a shitty crackprostitute with her mouth filled with cuts AND your penis also had cuts.
Okay, but how does one actually get an escort for someone living in a U.S east coast city?
Just be yourself
Hercules was the better show and I'm tired of pretending its not.
what about good games
THis was a pretty good game for adventure of the week as you roam around Greece with a BOAT/Crew ( I wish they did more with that tbh)
Dark Souls 1 had heavy 80s touch. More than Demons Souls.
Xena had strong women and lesbians and it never felt preachy
Why can't modern entertainment be like that?
It was made by men for men, and that's not allowed anymore.
Because it was made to look cool for men. Badass chicks were sexy and not obnoxious, lesbians were hot and still wanted a man etc.
>it never felt preachy
It felt preachy as frick. It was all about gurrll power and Gabriel being a lesbian was the most woke shit on TV at the time. Just because it had skimpy clothes, doesn't mean it wasn't the cringest wokeshit ever. It was even the start of the bullshit genderswap trash remakes we have in movies today, Xena is literally just Hercules but with a hole.

How come 90s tv shows were so fun and light hearted compared to modern shows? Seems like everyone was just having a laugh in the 90s and not taking anything too serious.
Blame Game of Thrones. Everything after that started trying to be super edgy, with washed out color filters and super serious plot.
Most shows being episodic also helped. Now everyone hates that style of storytelling.
And morons thing that liking muscle women is gay, when we all grew up watching this.
Xena isn't a musclewoman. She's quite slim.
How is Lucy so goofy and yet so sexy and imposing at the same time?
because she's my waifu
Xena was one of a kind. Noone has recaptured what she did.
WELL worth the punch.
economy was still doing good and 9/11 didn't happen yet
Cultural Marxism in institutions, people got indoctrinated in college and then they started shaping the culture once they got out and started having power on the job.
Also media redirection after Occupy towards woke shit.
Which one was more kino?
xenas opening was more kino because it didn't have as much voice over talking over it, that's the only deciding factor, and it had slightly better music

I worked with a German girl who looked exactly like young Lucy Lawless. She had unusual opinions though. She was religious and didn't believe in sex before marriage and used to go to mass every weekend and she made strange casually racist comments about black people.
Bait
Absolutely not bait. I only worked with her for about 6 or 7 months. She went back to Germany.
sounds like a keeper
Yea, Black folk do be looking funny sometimes
You didn't propose to her? What a homosexual.
Why would you want to marry a religious (low IQ) person?
Good question. Marry a bawd who's had 50 wieners down her throat and even more in her ass instead. What was I thinking?
That is also an example of a low IQ person. You need to get higher standards, dude.
Lucy Lawless goes full nude in that Spartacus show. She's so insanely hot
