Im very happy that mid ps3 era they stopped doing that
Yeah they dont do movie tie ins
As much these days
I can't really remember the last one
I am glad they made some. How else would I have Green Lantern and the Rise of the Manhunters??
They happen on mobile and in live service games
Why invest in a whole new console game when they're so expensive to produce now
Ngl this was me with the thor and cap game
π
And the 2 iron man games they made
I need to make a list of top movie tie in games
LotR return of the king is probs #1
But will need to see
Yeah that is uncontested
Riddick shout-out
my brothers played this game a lot
Butcher bay is gas
I played tf out of that on ps2
There is some great movie tie ins that had ZERO business being as good as they were
π
You know one that is shockingly above average?
Xmen origins wolverine
nahhhh you're too old for that lisa that game was HOT ass π
The Van Helsing game
Hardly a "best" but I like that Batman Returns game on SNES
Man don't judge my ass
Extremely good vibes in that
I played the batman forever game with my best friend as a kid
That was a bad game but
snes era worked really well for licensed games because they didnt have to shoehorn story elements and hire actors that tried to sound like the live action movie versions etc
We had fun
I didnt jam with the Matrix as much. I think I watched the first one as a kid and it just didnt gel
Yeah they just had to replicate the feel
It was really interesting
I replayed it a couple of years ago
You are not alone on that one
It's still pretty solid
Flushed away was kinda decent
I didnt get to play that one. The movie was fun
y'all don't know true peak
Wasnt that pc only
I had it on ps1
there were 9 stuart littles?
Found it
lowkey looks like that zomboid game
I had the promo wallpaper for this as my Xbox 360 theme for years
I don't even like that movie
I enjoyed the movie alot ngl
I think it's the vibe and the isometric feel
I enjoy dark kids movies
Same
land before time count?
It was on some coraline type of timing
That counts I feel
Which one?
1
The first one yeah
Yeh
I was about to say
I count it
the fish one was not dark
Yeah we can agree on that
Nightmare has been rather diluted, Coraline unfortunately is heading down that path too
Brave Little Toaster on top
Also, Rango goes hard
I still need to see puss in boots 2
Speaking of random ass movie tie in games that are good. Fucking Rango
Had a solid movie tie in
My favorite dark and bloody kids movie is the new Demon Slayer!!! π
Real quick, is that movie actually any good
No
I think it's the worst demon slayer anime thing
I do but not like
Overly sp
So
Anime and I are on a break rn
Besides the two shows my gf and I watch rn
dress up darling on top
Feeling mature for a kid but not overtly
My Dress Up Darling and The Summer Hikaru Died are what we are watching actually red
I felt smart watching that in a way I didn't watching Nightmare
Lfg
Is Watership Down a kids movie
Bluth entertainment babyyy
My fifth grade teacher made us watch it
Crazy how Bluth nearly singlehandedly kept up with Disney for a second creative vision wise
Bluth is probably livid that Disney owns his shit now
He deserved better than that
Have they not tossed Anastasia into the Russian section of Epcot
Mars Needs Moms was indeed stinky
(is there a Russia section in Epcot)
That movie stole my lifespan
I don't think so
They never would because Anastasia goes harder than a lot of their stuff did in that era
It's on Disney+
It is ?
I think?
Weirdly the only thing I kinda disagree with is Corpse Bride
Id rate it lower
I might need to rewatch ngl
Imagine how much better that film would have done if it was rated 17+ and called Mars Needs Mommies
Wait let Bon cook
Because those movies rock?
Secret of Nimh goes crazy
Treasure Planet is fucking great
Treasure Planet has some problems but I'm soft on it and it's way better than Disney pretends it is
Are you a sinbad enjoyer too
I ACTUALLY need to watch Sinbad
That and Prince of Egypt rn are my blindspots
Sinbad is a must
I feel like you have a really hard time disliking/being harsh on stuff lisa π
What would you rate lower, out of curiosity red
My threshold for enjoyment is different than yours red
π
ik but shark tale π
as high as C
Its a guilty pleasure
I mean I put it in C
π
that movie an F
No
Idk about F
I think Shark Tale next to cars 2 and Shrek the Third is about right in my mind
I can agree with that
shark tale F, Madagascar C, maybe D. Lorax C, Happy Feet C, Shrek 3rd D, Cars movies ranging C - D,
etc
Madagascar C???
maybe D
Cars is kinda c tier tho so not that crazy
Cars 2 is just watchable in the background for me
a lot of the lol ecksdee random animated movies of the early 2000s dropped heavily for me when I grew older
This gif pull was so bad
Where do you view Kung Fu Panda 1?
Its s tier for me
Was hoping just for eric andre. Oh well
I havent rewatched Kung Fu Panda anytime recently but maybe high B
This is valid
Yeh I think that we may just disagree on some movies red but hey
I've never seen kung fu panda
Johnny Depp's best role right there
To get the best performance
Well. If you dont include Pirates 1
the disney/pixar/whatever animated movies I hold more dearly are like, fox and the hound, lilo and stitch, monsters inc, shrek 1, incredibles, brother bear, toy story, treasure planet
This was just brilliant to get their best performance
Mostly the big classics which I respect
Your taste is validated with Treasure Planet
π·

Two of the most deeply annoying people I've known have glazed kung fu panda so much it's turned into a battle of spite
I'm not sure I can
my irl friend glazes kung fu panda and how to train your dragon
Valid
its a bit much
I can understand it
I actually really liked Rick and Morty season 1, then the glaze happened and then season 2 took an immediate down turn
So
I get it
my irl friends are the types to scream "IM PICKLE RICK" and find it funny
Brother bear is secret lore type shit
Thanks I cringed inside
don't let gang learn about Spirit
Tbh it feels like Rick and Morty leaned HARD into this portion of their audience
And that. Sucked.
I've heard everything from "it's the most mature animated film ever made" to "they took all those shitty Asian films and did it better than all of them" from them
I think it was always that way tbh but maybe moreso later
And I roll my eyes so hard it gives me a migraine
second comment is crazy
Yeah. They may have always wanted that audience
And accidentally made good shit for a second
true and true
Both awesome

God so peak
Its insane
These type of 2d films
Were so cracked
On my way by Phill Colin on Brother Bear OST.
A couple days ago, watched the movie again and it remain me this song. So done it, and here we are.

If you want to download, here the link: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?jwtthyddtzn, first read the description.
The closest feeling Ive had in recent animated movies to those was the Wild Robot
name a better duo than early 2000s animated movie and "walking song"
That movie was fantastic
Shout out to Shrek and Im On My Way AND Hallelujah
you notice how animated movies ever since the move to CG often times dont have like, scenic "beautiful" shots
Insane this happened so much and hit
the shift to cgi was also the shift to lol ecksdee humor
It's like entirely Shrek's fault
Film was so massively successful everyone copied it for a decade
you're right even though I love shrek 1
I think shrek 2 doubled down on the memes too
Donkey (Eddie Murphey) delivers this iconic rendition of Now I'm a Believer from Shrek (2001), originally by The Monkees.
Shrek is a 2001 American computer-animated comedy film loosely based on the 1990 children's picture book of the same name by William Steig. The film stars Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy, Cameron Diaz, and John Lithgow. In the film...
Christ almighty and this movie was supposed to be a punishment
π
Raised tbe bar so high everyone rushed to do 3d shit
This and pixar
Is why 3d ended up taking over
Jeffrey Katzenberg probably felt blessed he found a movie formula that let him throw in as many celebrity cameos as humanly possible
Toy story was so insane it changed film history
The man who wanted Steve Martin cast as Goofy
π
Bro is can't how were creators so cracked back then
Like seriously hindsight being 20/20
Toy Story is just Brave Little Toaster with all the rough edges sanded off
dont disrespect brave little toaster π
Lassetter made both!
nah early cgi ugly as hell
I mean why do you think they hid the humans
π
It only really worked for the toys
Till 2 where they could handle a bit
||https://youtu.be/kukfkR-VBOs?feature=shared|| toy story 1
God i love this scene
Ngl I need to rewatch atlantis
And monsters vs aliens
||https://youtu.be/tLXNDzc-2fA?feature=shared|| monsters vs aliens, I thank everywhere day I went to see this in theaters.

Escape from planet 51, monsters vs aliens, 9
Like what ???
Wtf 2009 was up
And coraline
π
Yeah im gonna have to make a rewatch list for animated movies
They were cooking with this number
idk why i can't remember the plot to this movie anymore
Shark Tale ||will smith wants to impress girl and so he pretends like he can beat up a shark and the shark is in on it||
I remember parts of it but its like a pretty standard zero to hero
Type of plot ngl
Just with will smith
Like its not really notable for the plot

people saying the source sucks
@DiscussingFilm people getting injured for the making of this film??? weβre about to receive cinema ladies and gentlemen
Ngl fuck this guy
π
jesus lol
Ive seen Atlantis a ton it's my gf's favorite movie of all time
it's a tabloid
like daily mail but british
yeah but he was apparently at a charity event the next day. The "cracked head" part seems to maybe be fake?
Britain's New York Post basically
but british
lmao, forgot it was already
Apparently Batman and deadpool did a crossover comic
Him and someone else
LMAOO
excited for SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY regardless of this fake or real news about the injury
I was watching homecoming earlier and mid way through no way home rn.

Iβm caught up with absolute batman
Absolute batman latest ||really cool stuff. I canβt even imagine how brutal and grotesque the bane fight will be. itβs a shame the joker is the big bad, he might be my most hated fictional character of all time.||
shoot, I didnβt know a Superman sequel was announced
Shark Tale - ||wasn't there a whale in this movie ||
Thats unfortunate
Absolute batman ||you will never get rid of the joker, him and batman are ying and yang. And them switching places in this reality is an absolute SSS tier idea. The one with money, tech, influence and the league of shadow training is joker. The batman is the one having to face the system and those that run it. The joker is effectively everything wrong with society. Its a brilliant switch up.||
||they worked at like a whale cleaning car wash place ||
Absolute batman ||you are not ready.||
ahh i remember now
Also absolute batman ||for how much you like bane, you forget he got bitched by joker and he's listening to him like good little henchmen. He knows that joker would absolute dismantle Santa Prisca and kill him. In the end he bent the knee and became his slave.||
While I do think the Joker is extremely over used, the good news is that the Joker we have been getting is the really edgy SOCIETY IS BAD Joker ever since Ledger. I think there is room to change it up and refresh him
Yeah absolute joker is anything but cliche
For sure
I think we need to distance from Hamil Joker
As much as people would want to get mad at that
I'd say rn that he's doing a fantastic job
I just really want the next issue for every one of the books
Cliff hangers pissed me off a little
Gotta keep bringing ya back
Nah specially for superman and martian
Shit had me in a chokehold
anyone got recommendations for anything mystery show thats good right now
not something old
Ummmm
Dog you're not gonna like what I have to say
But there isn't a lot on rn
π
Mind hunter maybe ?
already watched that a while back
Had to use some brain power on that one
I do not think I have
hmm i wonder if thats good or just some cowboy politics. Not really into wild west stuff π
I enjoy wild west stuff
But by 1923
It really wouldnt be the west
That died in like the early 1910s
iv never been good at social studies π
I enjoy history
But what you call the wild west
Was like 1865-1905
If im being nice
You can argue it was on its way out in like 1897
Ngl some of that west shit is peak
Imma need to check it out i know YouTube shorts was trying to sneak this into my feed
2 weeks ago it was dexter
Westerns can be dope af
true they can be
Lee vann Cleef bud
Dude just looked iconic
He was so cool
Its like his eyes were a whole nother actor
The eyes muchacho they never lie
This scene is so peak even Quentin Tarantino
honestly the last show i watched was probably like westworld S1 but that doesn't count
Used it in inglorious bastards
favorite movie ever made
#tarantino #sergioleone #filmanalysis
The opening scene in Inglorious Bastards is widely considered one of cinema's all time greats, but it's not the first time we've seen it. Just over 40 years ago, a nearly identical scene appeared in Sergio Leone's masterpiece The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. A film that just so happens to be Quentin Taranti...
@spiral quest incase you're interested too
Not taking away from Quentin both scenes are fantastic
When a movie is fantastic it just sticks
Even decades later
I am def interested
Will watch soon
Another reason why I recommended
Enough for you to enjoy
Ngl my favorite Tarantino movie is watching kill bill back to back
absolute batman getting mogged by adventues of super diaper baby π

Absolute Batman is a β¦@nytimesβ© bestseller! Thanks so much to all you guys for the support!
Mandalorian and Grogu first trailer || https://fixvx.com/starwars/status/1970110961286861243?s=46 ||
Watch the brand new trailer for The Mandalorian and Grogu and experience it only in theaters May 22, 2026.
Thereβs nothing Star Wars can do to me impress me anymore after Andor Iβm crying
Absolute Batman Issue 8 || Not really fan of this cryosleeped dude as antagonist.
Crime Alley Survivors part of this chapter was REALLY good tho ||
Absolute Batman issue 8 || thatβs Mr Freeze ||
Absolute Batman issue 8 || and heβs a more eldritch iteration from the main continuity ||
Absolute batman issue 8 || Yeah but this is way different than iterations of him in that old live action movie and animated movies lol ||
Yea
One thing I really like is || His whole childhood friend circle knowing he's batman || Absolute Batman
|| I wonder what will go with Harvey. I guess Harvey's always Two Face in comics? ||
Absolute batman ||isnt that the point of the absolute run||
Yes
Trueeeee ig
Idk like Absolute Batman issue 9 || Bane still feels like Bane to me.
Batman still like Batman.
But like Mr Freeze is wayyy too different lol. Would have thought it was a different similar villain ||
Ig after I catch up to Batman
I would probably go
- Martian Manhunter
- Wonder Woman
- Superman
- Flash
- Green Lantern
Absolute batman got super popular on social media all of a sudden its crazy
Superman 2025 really revived dc lol
Nice nice the ww and mm are probably the best ones
Firefly
This is the correct order from best to worst (Manhunter and Wonder Woman I actually enjoy even more than Abs Batman, theyβre both tied for the best)
Absolute dogshit
No shit thats the point
π
Insane slander
You're taste in absolute run is insane
Below all that is simply mental
Thought that was ranking
Its harsh smoking the bush
Cause that is not an accurate quality list
It's ranking I saw in another server that I used as basis for my list
For me its martian, batman, superman
Then wonder woman
Followed by flash and gl
And thats only because of the slower pacing
The changes are very clear with batman and superman
And now would probably use this list
Don't listen to Twitter on absolute superman
I am super non-informed of DC/Marvel comics lol
Some people are clowns about it
You don't really need to read anything for absolute
Outside of like absolute evil next month whenever it drops
But for that I suspect you'd need to be caught up on the runs
I do warn people, superman, flash and gl have more like traditional Manga pacing.
Even better
What
I donβt like Absolute Green Lantern as much as the others but I really like all of them to a certain degree
I just tend to disagree aggressively
With superman over wonder woman on this one
Batman would be top 1 if it wasnt for martian
Suit yourself lol
Wonder Woman has been the best book in the line consistently for me
4th for me tbh
Hayden Shermanβs art is so good
Iβm not as invested in Abs Superman
The art is not grabbing me as much as the rest either
Not very wowed by the story
Itβs playing pretty hit and miss at points for me, not a lot of consistency
Itβs not bad but itβs not the best either
Same thoughs I have on wonder woman
Pretty art but lacking plot
Absolute Batman Issue \TDKR || Really love this bane. Reading his dialogues in Tom Hardy voice suits this more than TDKR even ||
Absolute batman ||tom hardy's bane voice is ass ngl. I just picture the arkham origins va.||
Wonder Woman has been cooking hard every issue, Absolute Wonder Woman/Absolute Superman latest || Kelly Thompson keeping it rooted to Dianaβs Greek heritage, the monsters and the twists on characters are so well done and executed, Diana herself is incredibly characterised and portrayed, I just love the vibe of it all too, Superman just doesnβt have the vibe landed nor the story is that well told, the struggle that Clark feels at this point now doesnβt feel personal, it just feels superficial, I donβt care much about Raβs and his conflict and the twist in the latest issue didnβt land AT ALL, I like Brainiac the most in the series tho, heβs on point ||
Anyway
Iβm starting absolute Wonder Woman next
Absolute wonder woman. Batman/superman ||its a cool run but I dont really care for Diana, or her playing hades 2 for 4 issues. At this point I'm not enjoying it as much. Martian is genre defining so its basically bodying wonder woman in every department for me. And so is batman that goes without saying. I just find Clark knowing what he lost, seeing the struggles of earth early as a more rounded person makes for a compelling parallel. And braniac has been cooking as a more manic version of himself. I just need more to make up an opinion on the demon's head.||
Absolute batman/arkham origins ||https://youtu.be/SJjhF83x4XE?si=eylyfrXQxbDyhH3y for Bane|| that's the voice for him I usually picture

I wanna play the arkham games again..
Worth it tbh
Did that recently
Still hold up
The only really janky one is asylum tho ngl
π
God its annoying walking everywhere
I understand they were inveting a new kind of batman game but damn
Completing those riddler trophies in asylum was rage inducing
Ye I know this.
I just like TDKR one voice more
Ngl that voice is just too goofy for me
Doesn't sound like someone who grew up in prison
It sounds like a British gentleman with a top hat
Like somehow he made a version of Bronson that wasn't scary to listen to
Absolute Batman || Man the full page panels and double page spreads are so good here ||
This is true
They really know how to use their paneling to the fullest
A lot of great shots and sense of scale and motion
Also imma glaze the colorist
But they are doing a triple S tier job
Like that brother coloring every issue they are on like the rent is due tomorrow
π
Absolute Batman 11 || so Joker is at center of everything ||
Not surprised
Absolute Batman 12 || All his friends dead or turned... It's sad but the pacing of this happenning is too quick so I dunno don't like it much ||
|| I guess they really needed Two Face, Riddler and everyone ||
This series is gonna run for 50 plus issues
We arent even remotely close to done
Absolute batman 12 ||its well done that we got this done all in 1 chapter. It was already set up as happening last issue.||

Holy fuck
Omg omg omg omg
Man of tomorrow ||i can't believe I lived long enough to see brainiac.||
Goddamit this man james is a machine
π
Like let peacemaker finish airing before you write the script
fr, i wonder when they will drop a trailer for lanterns
My guess is December
Unless its a super girl trailer
oh so draft over
script over
holy based
My guess is they starting filming like June next year ?
Super girl trailer needs to be soon
you will see 2 cops on earth solving a murder of a human instead and like it
Its crazy they got guy Gardner talking about shit in deep space and all that but the main lanterns show is suppose to be a down to earth murder mystery
The hell are they doing
Guy Gardner is going to be more foul mouthed in this one
And far more serious since heβs dealing with a more serious organization
LFG
Woah
ww is slated for 2027 too right
We gonna have batman, superman and ww movies in one year
Wonder if supergirl will move to may. Heard there was an untitled DC project for May and that could only be supergirl
Esp since they finished it so long ago
Untitled?
Was a rumor but people think itβs supergirl
I think itβs a good idea esp since og date p close to Spider-Man
I started this yesterday the art is nice
Supergirl finished filming in may
Its not that
We have to wait on what it is
Yeah itβs pretty dope

did you guys see this new deleted scene
New 'Superman' deleted scene showcases a chaotic team-up between Mr. Terrific and Krypto
Yeah, Iβm actually glad this got deleted because itβs a bit too long and hinders the pacing by a mile
Superman 2025 ||I see why the cut it but still lmao.||
It makes sense to delete but I do love it lmao
i think they will release more and some directory commentary tomorrow
Blu ray drops tomorrow

@south hatch
Random ping but I checked and that script gun posted
Is the 2nd draft

Man of. Tomorrow ||Clearly it's going to be Livewire||
Man of Tomorrow ||there's no way this isn't a Brainiac movie||
Anyone here watch Wednesday?
iv seen season 1
i know i am asking too much but...
Man of Tomorrow - ||Please don't make the plot revolve around braniac launching nuclear weapons π ||
Literally makes zero sense for it to be anyone else after that
Soon I was waiting for s2 to finish
To binge
Man of tomorrow ||it's don't think we have to worry about that π this ain't age of ultron.||
Watch yourself
Ultra Humanshite
superman 2025 || kinda wholesome mr terrific was interacting with Krypto lmaoo ||
Far From Vietnam (1967) was an awesome gritting experience to watch... but Godard's section really was π
Piranesi by Susana Clark is good. I recommend it but don't wanna say much bc it's better to not know probably
Itβs pretty good yeah
It's in my list for this year

Hes gunnin it
Its gonna be a classic for sure
XMen first Class/Superman 2025 || Mr Terrific actor was that wasted character from First Class?!?! ||
Yes lol
Crazy glow up
One thing i really like about grrm so far is that he toes the line between sanderson and erickson pretty well. Theres no handholding but its still easy to follow if u pay some attention .
Favorite character so far?
I mean, Sanderson and Erikson are two extremes.
It's not toeing the lines here. It's just writing normally π
|| tyrion or bran. Tho robb is cold too || asoaf
maybe its just the authors i have read recently like james islington, john gwynn , fonda lee etc which fall alot more on the sanderson side of exposition
So this feels different
Fonda Lee is in like GRRM in that regard
Asoiaf ||branβ¦β¦..||
Haven't read gwynne. Islington is definitely in Sanderson's side of that scale
But with how complex magic Islington's works are, you need that
Asoiaf ||Bran bored me to tears like basically all of book one after like the firsr 3 chapters of hisβ¦||
Lol
ASOIAF/GoT S8 || Who had a better story than Bran the broken... ||
asoiaf || i like the set up for him so far. Tyrion is just cool as fuck. The chapter where robb and the wolves massacre the bandits was also cold. Jon is the one i thought i would like alot but is kinda boring for me. ||
|| maybe because the night watch plotline is uninteresting so far meanwhile we literally have a war brewing in other povs||
Asoiaf ||Jon is kinda your typical heroβs story in book one but idk i like it itβs charming considering the rest of the book, not my favorite book one but ||
Asoiaf ||what do you think of sansa||
Asoiaf || oh brother dont get me started ||
Asoaif || i am a bit forgiving so far because i feel like grrm has some plotline cooking for her where she gets a bit mature and less naive ||
@shrewd sigil you were right about HoA btw
I dropped it for now. Might probably continue it when my gf catches up.
This book had some good things, but just isn't working for me as the final book of a trilogy
U liked WOA ?
It was a 10/10 book but one of the decisions in the sanderlanche ruined it for me
It's a great political fantasy nonetheless
But a single thing ruined it for me...
Woa || the zane shit didnt bother u ? ||
Woa || felt like i was reading a plotline from a bad sitcom ||
WoA || I disliked Straff not dying to Amarantha heavily ||
one of the worst plot decisions I have ever encountered period
Woa || i am ngl i totally forgot who amarantha is ||
WoA ||Straff's Mistress ||
WoA || Really interesting character and had really great impact on Vin's character arc and how it affected her identity crisis.
And especially how it ended. Just brilliant ||
My favorite chunk of this book is || Zane and Vin going all hell on Cett's soldiers to Vin killing Zane. ||WoA
Brilliant
HoA had been disappointing since the first few chapters for me, but it still had some super strong parts
HoA || Spook's name origin chapter || is probably my favorite in all of Mistborn
maybe it only hits on a reread
was it the epigraphs that made you drop
|| But there's no sense of finality, the epigraphs make the experience the worst reading experience I have had, and the conflict of Shards feels so detached from the actual conflicts of the series ||
One of the biggest reason yes
but there were others too
what chapter did you get to
Woa || i mean moreso how his edginess was portrayed in a way which made me think that yea a white mormon is writing this. Also i just dislike love triangles in general||
like I fucking lost it when || We discuss how Koloss is created and come to a conclusion in a chapter and fucking before that chapter even fucking begins, the epigraphs fucking tells us how its actually done, essentially making whar we read fucking redundant cuz we already know that they are wrong and then we have to read like 3 pages of them discussing it || HoA
I dunno. That's very reductive of it 
The good stuff of HoA is very good
But there's way more bad stuff than WoA and TFE combined
In just half the book
U always have the most interesting takes goro i cant even hate
It's just idk man. I genuinely hated my reading experience
I can't like even skip epigraphs cuz idk I just can't do it
I even freaking read Acknowledgements and Ars Arcanum completely lol
How far along are u into hoa tho
Start of Part 4. I'll probably continue when my gf catches up
But rn, I don't want to read it at all
HoA ||I think the last part is very much so on purpose, era 1 is meant to be an introduction to the cosmere so ruin and preservation and details on what exactly they're doing is kinda hidden since Brandon wanted to build them up slowly||
HoA || But its like its supposed to be important to the actual conflict cuz we are fighting Ruin but we don't really know anything about them at all ||
So I dunno how the ending can be satisfactory at all
hoa || complete it for sazed if anything ong ||
Like in RoW || we know how Rayse is by extension of Wit and by epigraphs. And with what he showed on screen. We know him way more than we know Ati.
Similarly, we know what Taravangian is and we know what Todium would turn out to be. We have known these characters for long ||
So even without WaT, there's like steps or smth that we as an audience can know on how those could be tackled
HoA || We are fighting Ruin, and storywise, contrivances are needed for it to be possible ||
Already have found a couple of small ones that already is making it bad for me ig
Anyway ttyl. Gotta go to gym
byebye
you might become the first person to not like the HoA ending
got my dad the stormlight archive game for his b day today :D
admittedly, can't play it yet cause from what I read it has spoilers till OB but still
Has spoilers for even up to date people
Probably
Probably not
I hope I like it
Having opinion different from the consensus would just make it tiring in online convo
The game was released in 2020
How tf
Like I said ill have to wait till I finish oathbringer most likely but 
...
Can't I wish for your good time for 3 years later
Cuz that's when you will finish OB
??????
I havent been slow to read these books
Muk is still halfway through words of radiance
If even
And I read a whole other book in between
Its merely a comparison is all
Catching strays for no reason
Will of the Many sequel Strength of the Few dropping in October 
@valid thunder have you read this one?
It's by Islington
Thats November
Lmao
π
Nah i read the licanius trilogy. Gonna check out hierarchy after its finished
I have heard its a big improvement
I disliked will of the many but just the epilogue alone made me super interested in the sequel
I found WoTM to be incredibly disappointing
Oh lol
It focused on the cool aspects of the story like 4% of the length
and rest were super boring
Yea
One of the worst one to ever be done
π

It's like I was super interested at first
because conceptually it has a lot of amazing story stuff
This was true for me in licanius as well, had really good ideas but the prose and execution was lacking. But the last book was really nice
Idr care about prose if it doesn't detract from my experience of reading it
WoTM just chose the worst possible setting to tell its story
Hmm
I've been watching Grimm lately and I think I reached a point where I don't want to continue
Isn't that the bad Supernaturals
If you want a good medical drama, try The Pitt
π
Noah Wyle's in the lead role
Is awesome
no clue, torrented
I can send you the download if you want
what torrent tracker u use? 1337?
most of the good ones are invite locked
ptp
i went through the song and dance
and got an invite
havent rly got into torrenting. just been using 1337 and nyaa for the rare stuff i torrent
it's a giant headache for most normal people to do enough to get on those obscure trackers
but most normal people dont need the shit they have
yeah the invite gatekeep sucks
the tier 1s are incredibly comprehensive
there is one tier 1 you can enter without an invite
you have to do like a two hour interview
im waiting for BF sale to go splurging on hdd and set up a NAS
then gon start torrenting media
but through that you can enter the others. i do recommend doing it once you get serious
read about that one lol
I tried this back when I was a /mu/tant but chickened out at the last minute
No thank you
lol
@foggy mirage @south hatch
DCU Batman - ||might need to read this, saw an interview yesterday with Gunn that said this is his most influential/favorite batman. He really wants to bring that supernatural element into the DCU batman ||
I used to pray for times like this
They might pull a fucking demon slayer 
Not complaining tho , any way mindhunters comes back is good
Damn ressurection
I'm gonna have to reread
But this is only a great thing btw
Its he was massive in reinventing the character
Next to frank miller
If anyone is wondering btas is mostly based on his run on the character
Not miller
Ngl this is literally like the best news possible
Thank the gods James gunn actually reads dc comics
π
Dcu batman ||nah seriously tho big ups Denis O'Neil bro cooked so hard and left a mark in so many people's lives with his work. Its always a treat to see someone who genuinely loved what they did.||
Did people think BTAS was based off Miller??
You'd be suprised
Or they think they made all of it up
They read Frank Miller's work right
Not to detract from Paul dini
Lmao
Nah you can have comics to pull from and be a great writer of Batman
And Timm and Dini def knew what they were doing, Harley Quinn's creation and the revamp of Freeze prove that
Imma be completely honest this is just news that peak fiction will be achieved | Dennis O'Neil batman
I think everyone is essential to what made him so beloved
Everyone contributes
Give. Me. A. Good. RΔs
It stays there because Nolan kept Batman in the grounded and gritty
Unless its arkham series || this mf was iffy as hell too. He was alright lmao.||
That was so stupid dog π
Batman begins ||what the hell was the point of using the league if it's grounded.||
Arkham Series ||Loved his role in City until the end that was. Idk I felt maybe a bit unnecessary. It makes sense but at the same time Strange was fine on his own||
Batman Begins ||No Lazarus Pit is fucking weird.||
Arkham series ||I was good with it till the end, id rather it was strange doing his entire plan there.||
I am sorry but I am always going to want supernatural in my ideal batman
Batman begins ||just some guy that wants to destroy corruption, and nothing else.||
I need the fantastical bits
Like im sorry
But batman can investigate ghosts and demons
And crazy stuff
It doesnt need to be like always a serial killer
Crazy take i know
π
I just watched BTAS|| The Demon Within again and goddaman I know so many mfers on yt who hate that episode before they dont like magic in Batman||
Thats some clown shit of them ngl
Btas ||batman trained himself to deal with everything he can in the world. He would never limit his knowledge to science.||
I loved The Demon Within myself. I like fantastical shit in my Batman. Fucking Zatanna is one of my favorite characters in BTAS as like a concept, she gets thrown right out in Nolan Land
Exactly
I do hope they toss in zatanna's dad in his origin
The fact he learned to escape, magic tricks and bits of magic from an actual wizard
Just makes sense
I think Zatanna and her father are such a cool concet for Bruce's younger years
BTAS did so much right
Dog just borrow from bronze batman, and btas
Take a little fron Miller the stuff that works
And some grant stuff
And we good
I do not want to see another 100% frank Miller batman
I love batman returns
But Zack going all in on that
Was insane
Idk why people are obsessed with him
Batman returns is fantastic to me
But I know thats not like defining batman
And daredevil
Going βall inβ and itβs the most butchered piece of dogshit imaginable
His daredevil run got me in a chockhold
Dark Knight Returns is great, his Year One was great, and yeah Man Without Fear for Daredevil is great
I am just tired of the rest. I didnt vibe with Sin City at all
I don't think he digested batman returns properly
Like it feels like he barely understands it
π
Batman returns is a shitty movie
He doesn't digest any comic properly
You mean dark knight returns
Batman Returns was. Weird.
Sin city is like....
Burton got Gotham correct but I dont really enjoy those movies overly
I donβt really like any of those old movies. People have some reverence for them but to me their forgettable
If you were in that time period, dope
I think nowadays it doesn't cut it for me
Honestly I like em more than the Nolan movies
I cant sit down and hear bale grumble
That shit kills my mood
π
