I quit a job a month ago that was basically like that every day, my team and I referred to it as verbal swordplay. Now in a place that I don't have to be like that and its odd.

They even gave subtitle for "Hanry Cavill arm reload move" :D This was awesome

[@Dultus]

*Choking* :-)

[@Gristoufle2]

Subtitles are maybe 50% of my fun income from vldl xD

[@hatmanbuilder]

The fight scene is better then in 90% of modern action movies! No shaky cam, no epileptic editing - you can actually see the fight! Great! Awsome!

[@Tungus7]

The fight choreography is better than most Hollywood films. The camera does not shake, the frames do not change 3 times per second. Good special effects.

[@adamtennant4936]

*visual effects

[@ILikeYous]

Better than Disney's latest :)

[@thomassmith6232]

It reminded me of those old Kung Fu monies.

[@ImWillyDS]

Because the fight choreograph is done by people that is passionate on delivering great video and entertainment. Not some overly entitled artist that would sue the production company over a very minor inconvenience during work

[@Bxzjhggh]

​@@thomassmith6232 more like Matrix

Went back and watched with CC because of this comment. Totally worth it

[@arturoescobar4226]

Never thought I'd see the day when Alan finally quit the store, it makes me so proud he stood for himself at last 😢

[@DeadEyeJake]

I kept imagining Ben walk in with a new plan to annoy Alan, seeing the ongoing battle, and just walking right back out of the store all like, “I’m not getting caught up in that, I’ll come back some other day” 😂😂. Great episode guys. Love the content as always❤

[@musicisum0405]

And we all collectively say "FINALLY!"

[@ShadowebEB]

Indeed, but will they finally explain why Rowan was such an ass to him for so long?

[@jmfs1701]

​@@ShadowebEBBecause Allen was the original Mananger and he once had a white shirt. In the years when it was called Playtech and not techtown.

[@madddogg8044]

Man, that felt good. Took forever but was worth it!

[@Yusa25]

​@@ShadowebEB you need to watch the previous eps there is mostly explained everything, but the main reason is that rowan slowly turned into a bad manager firstly he was very nice and polite even had fun with alan but then the white shirt happened and since then the rivalry began

[@filb1324]

​@@Yusa25 Not just the white shirt...before it, there was the scission between them because Rowan admitted to like the Phantome Menace. Alan rejected him for that

[@tholgrimstonebeard5943]

"Is he going to jab that pen into his eye?" *knocks it over to trigger Rowan* "OOOOOH! THAT'S SO MUCH BETTER!"

The subtitles on this were AMAZING! It felt like watching the old school Batman show with the POW, BOOM, THWACK words on the screen.

[@SnowWolf75]

Thanks for calling that out. I rewatched with them on, and I agree they are bangers. I especially appreciate the timing of the punch/dodge subs. And the "arm reload" one.

[@mishka9279]

[@ИванБорисюк-п7э]

I watched the fight like 3 times. The choreography, the callbacks to every cliche in the movies' fight, also callbacks to bored universe, and as a cherry on top - subtitles!

How is this better fight choreography than the entire ahsoka series

[@moalex6617]

I never thought I needed the continuation to this more than I ever thought I would my entire life. I'm ready to see Techtown fall apart and Rowan is wondering why. Ellie, Britt, and Adam proceeds to tell Rowan all the things that Alan does to not only fix all of Rowan's mistakes, but keeps the store up and running behind the scenes.

[@jonathanwessner3456]

Rowan should have made sure Britt was there, she'd have jumped Alan from behind to "help"

[@neotagatg3238]

I Hope I'm wrong but sadly I think they will mess it up like they did having Rowen being manger again in one episode of not. I'm sorry to say but After that waste of potential I have no faith this series can actually grow and change. Some nonsense will pull alan back. Rowan will "change" all smiles, and we'll be back to abusive rowen manager in less than half a year.

[@VivaLaDirtLeague]

Off into a glorious future 😎

@@Corusame And? It's a series that has character movement , progression, and lore. The SImpsons today are not the same as the 1st season neither is any long lasting media project. I was disappointed when rowen went back to manager so fast I hope that this time we actual don't revert for a long time if ever. I regret 17 hours ago saying I have no faith the comment read too harsh. I've watched all of bored at least three time I enjoy it. I have some faith they can make it feel fresh and change things some I hope to see the comment I made above proven wrong.
