It's incredible to me how the classic Bond directors largely seemed to live such incredible long lives. RIP Mr. Gilbert and thank you for your art.

A great scientist, and an excellent example of somebody who didn't let their disability stop them from achieving their personal goals in life. Rest in peace.

My most wanted fight ever is Discord vs Bobobo-bo bo-bobo.
Godzilla has a regen like Wolverine, a skin like Luke Cage, a hero aura like Captain America, a strength like Hulk, an unstoppability like Juggernaut, an immortality like Deadpool.
There's a 'God' in Godzilla for a reason...
