[young compass]

I’ve read it, some of his thoughts are kind of silly but the critique that LOTR is reactionary is not novel and the story basically tells you itself

[foggy mirage]

How much desperate can we get

Lmao

[young compass]

so obviously I disagree with the story politically as I do most fantasy and frankly most of the western canon

[modern lichen]

Have you read Earthsea

[young compass]

and I don’t need him to tell me that really

[modern lichen]

Interesting deviation from western fantasy norms

[young compass]

Yes I have harsh but that story is anarchist

[foggy mirage]

@frank rivet this is the type of leadership the mcu has

Absolute desperation

[modern lichen]

Yeah that’s what I think makes it so interesting as a counterpart to LOTR

[young compass]

I like it more

[modern lichen]

I really love the pastoralist environmental themes of LOTR

[frank rivet]

@foggy mirage at this point, Feige just pleading for fans to come and see this movie 😭 they spent too much

[modern lichen]

Also a pretty good discussion on the paranoia of different people coexisting in a difficult time

Yeah imma just catch a shitty I phone recording

[sage remnant]

harsh, lmk your thoughts on Psalm for the Wild Built if you ever read it

I think it does smth kinda interesting with its world in relation to that lotr statement

[foggy mirage]

Legit deluded

[sage remnant]

it's just a novella so shouldn't take you long whenever you get to it

[foggy mirage]

John cinema was right calling the mcu roller coaster shit ngl @frank rivet

[frank rivet]

we didn't want to believe but they literally got nothing left 😭

[foggy mirage]

No nothing you have no juice to tell new stories ?

[modern lichen]

I’m focusing on Robin Hobb’s work for first time reads and ASOIAF for my rereads this year on the fantasy front

[foggy mirage]

Nothing ?

You have a world rich with characters

[sage remnant]

yea if you need a palate cleanser or w/e

[foggy mirage]

And they trying to pull an infinity war 2.0

[modern lichen]

Do I read Sword of Kaigen first or Poppy War

[sage remnant]

I disliked Poppy War b1 on reread
I still like Sword of Kaigen

so yeah SoK

[foggy mirage]

Only fantasy on my menu rn is the tainted cup

[sage remnant]

remind me did you ever read BoBH?

[foggy mirage]

My ass is determined to get that much done

[modern lichen]

BoBH?

[sage remnant]

blood over bright haven

[frank rivet]

@foggy mirage i feel like after James left, they built everything aroung the GOTG aesthetic and feel they don't know how to make any other movie. If Spiderman wasn't who he was, they would be cooked. They can't take risks in any genre because their movies cost too much fucking money.

[modern lichen]

Yeah

I did

[sage remnant]

were you a fan or was the lack of subtlety an issue

[modern lichen]

I did not like it

[foggy mirage]

Spiderman has practically been isolated from the main stuff outside a couple of plot points.

[sage remnant]

ah yeah SoK is much different than that

[foggy mirage]

Everything in phase 4 and 5 screams random bullshit go

Hoping everything would land and they could do anything

[sage remnant]

so you would prolly enjoy it

[frank rivet]

@foggy mirage if they were smart they will let Daniel build their franchise. He did a great job with a smaller budget Wonderman.

[sage remnant]

I would say it's like a vagabond-boti-Naruto mashup

character driven, military and family drama

[foggy mirage]

Wonder man was genuinely refreshing in a sea of slop

Focusing on a personal story was the right move

[sage remnant]

did DC not sue them for using wonder man

when DC has Wonder woman

[foggy mirage]

Nah I dont think so ?

[frank rivet]

not that i am aware of

[sage remnant]

they have superman and supergirl

so like

wonderman and wonder woman could have been their plan or w/e

[foggy mirage]

Tbh dc has captain marvel

Lmao

They just call him Shazam nowadays

Also Hawkeye did so bad they fall back to daredevil carrying their shows @frank rivet

"Damn we fumbled our tv shows."

"Just revive the netflix side of stuff."

[sage remnant]

hawkeye was so forgettable

[foggy mirage]

Ass

It was ass

[sage remnant]

honestly while I hate Wandavision due to that dialogue in the final ruining it

[foggy mirage]

They managed to take a genuinely great comic run

And sap it of everything I loved

[sage remnant]

atleast ep 1-4 were incredibly unique stuff

while I couldn't even finish falcon and winter soldier, it was trying to do a down to earth drama, even if they fumbled

[foggy mirage]

This is easily a comic I reccomend to everyone

[sage remnant]

Hawkeye isn't even interesting, doesn't try anything else, and isn't even pulpy or fun

[foggy mirage]

And they managed to fumble it

[sage remnant]

it's 0/anything a good show could have had

[foggy mirage]

The only thing that kept me watching the falcon show was ||walker||

That was it

Literally

The only character having any motion

[frank rivet]

It had such generic writing with such a great actor

[foggy mirage]

If they followed the actual comic closer they could have done a better show

But it was just way too much set up for other stuff

Make a good show first

Then try adding stuff

[frank rivet]

Even early Arrowverse was better 😭

[foggy mirage]

Ngl that fell off at s3 for me

😭

Around the same time as the flash

[frank rivet]

I can't remember when I stopped watching it

Flash I watched a little longer

But they both suffered from the same problem that all cw shows suffer from

[sage remnant]

going unnecessarily long

af

[frank rivet]

nah worse

They give into shippers 😭

[sage remnant]

wasn't that big of an issue on Flash...

[foggy mirage]

Issue with that was ||dragging a show out with one of the fastest heroes ever, and how inconsistent that is. With a new faster guy always showing up.|| the flash

Also just poorly written

[foggy mirage]

Yeah shipping and making characters stupid

[sage remnant]

yeah like I said here lisa

that was the issue of it

with it*

I don't think so yet, my mom wanted to know if I wanted to go watch it this weekend in theaters. She's only really good on movies that are either faith based or have good marketing

[white smelt]

Damn so she whipped out her phone just to type that mid movie

[crimson bane]

I mean, considering the length that some of these faith based shows go there's definitely time for multiple intermissions, as well as time to show targeted adds

[limber urchin]

Fun Fact: I'm clicking on all these mario galaxy spoilers.

I mean the Mario movie

(PART 1) One Piece Theory (ft.): Pirates of the Caribbean films 2 - 3 ||(PART 1)
Eustass Kid and Davy Jones (Pirates of the Caribbean) Similarities||

||(PART 1)

• Ships

The ships of Kid and Davy Jones look very similar, as if Kid’s is just the One Piece version of it.

They both carry dinosaur-shaped skulls afront.

They both feature further rib bones along the sides.

Even the box-y shape of their rear areas look similar too.||

||Davy Jones’ ship was even hilarious called the “Crocodile Machine” by Jack Sparrow, during bloopers.

Which is actually quite true.. the ship is practically machine-like in design.

Very fitting match for a Kid that adores assembly and disassembly, to modify his ship in such a way.||

||Interestingly, Kid’s Victoria Punk used to feature an.. oddly horned bat-like figure instead. This is strange as bats have ears, not horns.

Ultimately, what this figurehead actually ends up resembling is real-life illustrations of Davy Jones.||

||During the time-skip, it was modified to the dinosaur we now know, as a specific request from Oda for Stampede.

Whether it be real-life depictions of Davy Jones or the one from Pirates of the Caribbean, it’s intriguing how Kid always seems to match up one way or another.||

||- Heritage

Back to similarities, both Eustass Kid and cinema Davy Jones have been created with the image of being Scottish.||

Reminder: ALL of this is Pirates of the Caribbean films 2 - 3 spoilers

||- Weapon Collecting

Both Kid and Jones seem to share the same hobby of weapon collecting.

Although this wasn’t outright stated by Jones, after killing a character during an emotional scene in-context of the film, he collects his sword while fancying it.||

||- Unrequited Love

Despite being ruthless on the outside, Jones and Kid are both soft on the inside. Both have endured unrequited love.

Davy Jones with Calypso the sea goddess.. and Kid with Victoria, who he turned into his own makeshift sea spirit, naming his ship after her.||

||Until recently, I would have thought this connection would be out of nowhere to make too.

But I hope I’ve successfully managed to convince how Oda has actually taken inspiration from Davy Jones from Pirates of the Caribbean, and applied him into Eustass Kid in a variety of ways.||

^^Pirates of the Caribbean films 2-3

Oh wow, what fitting timing lol. Yeah, hope you enjoy it! The first 3 are really good, I watched them for the first time myself recently, which is what sparked the newly-writing of the theory

Pirates of the Caribbean film 2 ||I wasn't even going into it with the original intention of finding relations to Kid, but all of a sudden the crocodile machine appeared and I was like wtf, it's literally the Victoria Punk ||

[median nova]

indeed lol

@frank rivet

I'm gonna need that trailer

[worthy crypt]

row 20 || i have a feeling this will be an uncommon opinion but i dont like the choice to lean more into the shallan multiple personality thing. It dominates every line of dialogue, every interaction, every scene. I recognize that this is probably true to life but it doesnt make for a good story imo. Shallan literally gets a tummyache and the first thought is oh veil can use this as a false display of weakness to cause people to underestimate her. She cant stub her toe without thinking oh radiant wouldnt react to this as much as I did ||

[frank rivet]

please James 😭

[foggy mirage]

Nobody would complain if he dropped it on Wednesday

[tawny parcel]

row 20|| I like half agree but in a more broad sense that it feels like half of the time, both kaladin AND shallan will be removed to just their disorders. Like it strips them of anything else. But also, i'm one of those people who have admittedly gotten a little tired of these characters facing the exact same struggles throughout these books lol||

Row20 ||Kaladin is a slave? He's depressed. Kaladin is a high soldier? Well he's a little less depressed now, but he still is struggling with his indenity. Oathbringer? this dude is still depressed and he cant save everyone, so on and so forth||

Im being a little mean

I admit

but

[worthy crypt]

row 20 || id agree it similarly dominates the arcs as a whole and the average interaction but it doesnt affect every single interaction like it does for shallan dissociation. A few chapters ago he was able to find some joy in bringing his family to the tower and giving his father a nice surgery room||

[sage remnant]

RoW 20 || That's how mental health works ||

[tawny parcel]

row20 ||I def agree on that front its stronger with shallan ||

[tawny parcel]

RoW 20 ||I'm not saying its unrealistic, but I would be lying if I said from a writing perspective it doesn't get a little tedious at points||

[worthy crypt]

row 20 || the first example i gave that prompted me to post wasnt an exaggeration she literally reacts to getting a stomachache by considering how veil could twist it towards her subterfuge ends ||

[sage remnant]

RoW 20 || Its stronger in impact because its realistic tho ||

[sage remnant]

RoW 20 || Shallan post OB has been in a state where she stops abusing her Personalities but is outright hiding using them ||

[peak pilot]

Row ||I disagree on kaladin. Book 1 is about finding a reason to live and continue on. Book 2 challenges his perception of the world and his sense of honor. Book 3 kaladin has massive trouble overcoming his failure because that’s just how he has always been and has never truly tried to forgive himself. On top of it being his former #2. Elhokar was changing as well.||

[sage remnant]

mukbang having good takes in big 2026

crazy

[peak pilot]

Row ||Shallan I have to think a bit more on since her problem is more complex but I wasn’t bothered by any “repetitiveness” of her struggle in the first three books||

[worthy crypt]

row || it was fine in ob, i didnt love it but overall it was fine and there was a nice moment in the end where all 3 shards work together in the final battle. But in ROW its literally every single line ||

[sage remnant]

Row || Shallan in her first book deals with her place in this grand scheme of things and is more driven by the goal than anything else. Her mental health isn't even explored here as she has hidden it for years.

Shallan in book 2 deals with self worth, loss of a friend mentor and navigating herself in a place where anyone could kill her for political gain.

Shallan in book 3 is now for the first time deals with her DID. The end in OB is her understanding that the two aren't for her to abuse due to that kid Veil helped dying.

Shallan in book 4 is finally spiralled into her issue and is hiding behind her personalities.

If you are nitpicking, Shallan has less repetition than Kal lol ||

RoW || Her journey in OB was more so realizing that she shouldn't abuse her personality and embrace them as not as tools but as some parts of her that just exists.

She hasn't really completely accepted those voices, more so just make peace with them and set boundaries ||

[tawny parcel]

RoW|| me reading all this: I like Adolin because he is cool||

[sage remnant]

Wombat can't read proven fr

[peak pilot]

Row ||just a guy I a world of superheros and demons||

[sage remnant]

I am not even doing with any 'depth' stuff here. It's all fully blatant surface level stuff

[sage remnant]

RoW || People have weird obsession with these sort of characters ||

[tawny parcel]

RoW ||ATIA for trying to get a fire fit from my tailor when my whole kingdom is on the verge of collapse?||

[sage remnant]

|| like say Rock Lee ||

[tawny parcel]

me im him

[sage remnant]

Never ever been a guy who puts them that high

That character wasn't even top 10 until latest book..

[peak pilot]

Row ||I imagine because it’s more relatable or easier to self insert||

[tawny parcel]

theyre probably my favorite in the series

RoW|| although I wish brandon wouldnt sideline him so hard sometimes||

[sage remnant]

|| Kal's more relatable to me honestly ||

[tawny parcel]

RoW|| we get the fun nice and hype moments from him but there is drama there that lays in these books and just goes basically untouched like dalinar and adolin ||

[sage remnant]

RoW || His depression spiral are way more relateable than a normal person who is still super jacked, rich and a prince ||

[tawny parcel]

guess not everyone can relate to that life huh

[sage remnant]

RoW all || The only one that has been untouched between them has been regarding SshSshSsh ||

|| which has been progressed but in a different way since Adolin is sent in a expedition by the said guy avoiding to deal with it ||

[peak pilot]

Wind and truth is a big book. Once I’m done that’s it for Stormlight for another 5 years. That’s crazy

One piece won’t even be done then

[sage remnant]

Yeah cuz one piece is a bigher story duh

[tawny parcel]

RoW END ||Sadeas? didnt that happen in OB?||

[sage remnant]

Stormlight takes longer to read than OP and ain't even half as big in scope fr

[sage remnant]

RoW end || No Evi ||

|| Sadeas is still kinda unresolved at this point. Doesn't mean it won't be coveted ||

[tawny parcel]

Ob ||the whole fact that they barely acknowedge the fact adolin murders fucking sadeas still annoys me||

OB ||damn near no repercussions ||

OB ||something like that should have rifted a wedge between Dalinar and Adolin way harder, its a complete different path in their characters and nothing comes from it||

[sage remnant]

OB || It has rifted a wedge but you would be lying if you say that diidnt help Dalinar lol ||

[tawny parcel]

OB|| its a super small wedge ig, it should have fundamentally shifted their dynamic ||

[sage remnant]

OB || No it shouldn't have.
Despite what Adolin does being shameful for the current him and being against what he stands for, some part of him agrees with Adolin when he says about Sadeas making things more difficult and they not having capacity to deal with him.
And a good chunk of adolin in OB is driven by effect of Sadeas's death ||

RoW || The true wedge is Dalinar killing Evi and that had fundamentally changed Adolin and Dalinar's relation as its evident in RoW ||

[tawny parcel]

OB ||I just look at TWoK when Dalinar probably could have just killed Sadeas and instead gave his blade and everything just for Kaladin and his crew and how civilized he is. How rational he is now with choice and trying to for the most part always not choose the extreme/lash out and than adolin goes and does it. his OWN son. and its barely acknowledged. ||

Ngl that is unironically the best looking movie

[foggy mirage]

Stumbled a bit ?

Season 5 and up is ass

I get he's talking finales

But that shows problems started from season 5

[modern lichen]

Season 6 is good fan service

Well the last 2 episodes at least

[foggy mirage]

Yeah everything around it though

https://tenor.com/view/ahem-shit-loser-seriously-gif-5731140

Its like watching someone start using scrappy building materials on the 5th floor of a skyscraper

And around the end they just used glass

I think it was cooked since the 5th floor was tofu dreg dog

What's the worst that can happen

At this point

[sage remnant]

For most people, anecdotally based on my interactions with my then friends, last season is the only one most people have issues with

[tawny parcel]

I didnt even catch that lmfao

[foggy mirage]

Most folk are easy to please i feel

I hated how they mishandled so many things

[sage remnant]

Like just take this

7.6, 7.9, 7.5 isn't really bad

[foggy mirage]

Like I said if you are already into whatever the show was doing

No issues

Even when 7 objectively just sucks

[sage remnant]

so Kripke is right on the last 3 eps fumble

that changed it from

[white smelt]

Anyone watched nirvana the band the show

[sage remnant]

A TV sensation

[foggy mirage]

But the last 3 were so legendary

[sage remnant]

To mid

[foggy mirage]

In how they fumbled

Like at this point I just take 1-4 as good seasons

The rest not worth the time for me

[foggy mirage]

@frank rivet bunch of tv shows cover list. Not all yhe shows I've seen just random list.

[worthy crypt]

I mostly agree I probably just woulda applied a normal curve more

I guess it should be biased towards the top cause you just don't watch anything that's really bad

[lusty wren]

you should, its a geat show, i can send you link to comics too if you want

[toxic pebble]

Invincible s4 finale ||I thought it was a very interesting change that they edged out the reveal till the very end. I liked the sense of dread they gave Mark. But yeah Eve not being thicc enough is a sin. Cowards.||

[frank rivet]

Iv seen it by force 😭

[lusty wren]

invincible s4 finale ||but that changes the entire plot of nolan going to telescria telling allen the news, does nolan even fkn know now?||

[lusty wren]

all the more reason to catch up on it, then you can spoil others

[frank rivet]

I'm caught up lol

[lusty wren]

oh lol I understand now, you meant you read the comics but enver watched the show?

[frank rivet]

No I mean I have been force fed invincible off short form videos that I've basically seen all of it

[lusty wren]

oh

you havent, I bet you

But have not ever sat down and watched an episode

lemme dm you the link right quick

its a fkn archive dot org link anyway

hm cant dm you wtf

ah whatever, if you want it, dm me

[arctic flax]

Fr, everything ive heard bout invincible are against my will. The fans are insufferable with spoilers and the algorithm as well.

Kind of shit puts me off a series out of annoyance

[lusty wren]

as an invincible comic reader myself, I couldnt agree more, worst fanbase in history

[arctic flax]

well season is over, maybe ill stop seeing it on my feed now

[lusty wren]

you wish

you wont

[copper phoenix]

invincible is the jjk of western animation

[arctic flax]

I dont like being forced to catch up to something just due to spoilers, even if i like the series

I mean i only do that if its a manga amd im not much behind like op

But this is like 3 seasons im behind lol

[arctic flax]

Except it gets clowned on for its animation sll the time lol

so is the jjk comparison just the fandom?

[lusty wren]

the animation can be fucking attrocious at times, garou slide kinda level

[arctic flax]

The production/showrunners priorities seem to be on useless celeb VAs than animation

[lusty wren]

oh you dont know the half of it

word is theyre constantly trying to get brain cranston but he keeps saying no

[arctic flax]

Yeah im aware. Of that stuff. stupid af.

[lusty wren]

and instead of just getting real VAs they get the bottom of the celeb barrel

[arctic flax]

Like main cast is one thing and id say they’re great

but u dont need celeb VAs for every char

[lusty wren]

worst example is the dude from the very first scene, that security guard, I cant remember but he was some super famous celeb, had like 5 lines that was it

fucking useless

[arctic flax]

This seems an issue that more budget wont fix as theyll just hire more celebs

Production needa change

[lusty wren]

I dont think they will tho

[arctic flax]

Apparently they get a million budget per ep

[lusty wren]

we got 3, maybe 4 seasons left

[arctic flax]

Insane the quality compared to any good produced anime

[lusty wren]

yupp

[arctic flax]

Like its the inverse KNY

Carried by story

[lusty wren]

I mean it still delivers tho when it matters most

[sage remnant]

Doesn't make sense cuz afaik the animation of Invincible is bad?

[lusty wren]

the animation I mean

[arctic flax]

Even Stuff like early ben 10 probably has better fights

[lusty wren]

they are very self aware of that btw, they literally make fun of themself in a scene

[arctic flax]

Western animation fell off hard

[lusty wren]

its the same with the comics btw

[sage remnant]

They were never on

Other than maybe Samurai Jack

At least had more visual flair than current anime fr

[lusty wren]

reusing the exact same panel 4 times in a row without anychanges is not an uncommon thing in the comics

[arctic flax]

nah 2010a and before had great stuff

I think any DCAU series is better than invincible in animation

[modern lichen]

No one would compare any DCAU show to Invincible, that’s a crime

[arctic flax]

Damn

[lusty wren]

speaking of, invincible makes a lot of sidesweeps at other comics, kirkman really fucking hated the classic superhero comic tropes

[arctic flax]

Kirkman apparently doesn’t respect animation medium

Kirkman doesn’t have much to do with the animation

[sage remnant]

"They were never on" would imply shows of the past. More evidently clear with Samurai Jack about which era I akm describing...

[sage remnant]

Have you watched Tatami Galaxy or that creator's any other works

[main lion]

disney movies were more imaginative pre 2000~

[modern lichen]

pocahontas or hercules are not what i call imaginative tbh

[main lion]

well, different disney movies have different directors. What about Peter Pan?

[modern lichen]

i do miss disney making movies with 2D

peter pan was made in the 60s

[sage remnant]

I guess I missed pre CGI Disney

When I said that

[main lion]

which is pre 2000

[modern lichen]

ok man

i do love peter pan though even if its pretty damn racist

[main lion]

lion king was 1994. Would you say that isnt imaginative at all

[modern lichen]

no no my point is that there are as many stinkers in the disney canon as there are classics

even pre 2000

[main lion]

100%. But goro was just saying they were never on and then used samurai jack as the sole exception

[modern lichen]

i think a lot of early disney renaissance work is pretty great

[main lion]

so it didnt seem to be like a "theyre ALWAYS on vs NEVER on" thing

[modern lichen]

yeah that i disagree with

[main lion]

The Iron Giant aint disney but thats another animated movie from the 90s that is peak

[modern lichen]

very excited for the new brad bird animated feature

[sage remnant]

Ye it was hyperbolic and ignoring a good number of works

[main lion]

spiderverse/arcane have done wonders for CGI animation. Now not every animated movie is pixar art style

this is still pixar-ish but theres more style infused

that makes it look more unique

[modern lichen]

i am so fucking excited for beyond the spiderverse bro

[main lion]

both that and batman next year

peak

[sage remnant]

that movie's never coming

[near echo]

The 00s and second post-Frog CG period had a lot of their most experimental work after like, the 50s tbh

[modern lichen]

new images and stills from the movie have been released

its coming out

phil lord and chris miller took to cinemacon

[sage remnant]

I started and finished college in the time between batman 1 and 2 and across and Beyond

[near echo]

Not that they were better for it

[main lion]

00s is when most of their stuff started feeling like a straight to DVD movie

but theres obv like

treasure planet

brother bear

etc

which I liked

[modern lichen]

but those werent huge successes

[main lion]

idr if monsters inc was disney or pixar at the time

ik its disney now

lilo and stitch was good

[modern lichen]

monsters inc and monsters university are both pixar releases

[near echo]

Disney is a pendulum of doing formulaic and successful Disney movies, starting to lower their budget and dev times as people get bored of em, moving into new demographics unsuccessfully partially due to the cheap feeling of their current animation, and inevitably going back to basics with a hit Princess movie that recaptures everyone's nostalgia once they're ready for one again

This has happened 4 times

[main lion]

new princess movie soon?

[near echo]

Isn't hexed one

I don't follow the Disney news

[modern lichen]

crazy

[near echo]

That's just typical now

Every popular new animated movie is the best selling ever

Cuz theaters are expensive now so family movies sell the best and the international market is larger than ever

But idk I think I'd rather drink bleach

[foggy mirage]

Clayface also trailer should be dropping today

@frank rivet

This is just the marketing before it

[main lion]

I feel like they made this movie specifically to do the really cool intro scene

and then they were like "uh, now what"

for the rest of the movie

[near echo]

I remember the hand puppets from McDonald's more than the actual story

[toxic pebble]

My main issue with Invincible is that the animation is fine, but it needs more colorful colors and better shading in some scenes

Dull muted colors do not work

[peak pilot]

It’s not just the animation. The voice acting is bad for most characters

[sage remnant]

Don't they invest everything for VA

[peak pilot]

They invest a lot it seems. Plenty of celebrities

But I eve the ones who aren’t voiced by celebrities I find grating

There are only a handful of voices I actually like

They animate a season per year so I don’t expect anything good. Don’t know why they’d do that. Sacrificing the quality s1 had to pump out a season every year

[main lion]

ye most still suck

might be a voice direction issue

[peak pilot]

That’s what I’m thinking it is. Mostly

[toxic pebble]

Invincible s4 ||I think Thragg’s voice fits him tbh. Never got the hate||

But some of the celebs I disliked. In Invinicble s3 ||I didn’t like Aaron Paul as Powerplex tbh||

[peak pilot]

Invincible s4 ||I find Thragg to be bad. Theres never any change in infliction in his voice and he sounds bad whenever he’s angry. It’s overall extremely dull||

[vale mica]

they have like crazy well known voice actors for little cameos that have 5 lines

I do quite like JK Simmons tho

Invincible season 4 end ||that was bad but even worse was Nolan’s dialogue with Debbie. It was forced and manipulative to the point where I thought Debbie was having ptsd as well lol. They need to stop having Nolan say he’s changing. That’s not how this kinda thing works. Other than that, mark and eve storyline was really good, especially the voice acting. And Thragg seems like a dope villain so far||

[limber harbor]

Invincible show latest || they have a habit of doing that, with Rex in season 2 he would say how much he changed like every other sentence practically, and everyone kinda loved him by the end so it worked out perfectly and I’m assuming they’re doing the same thing now||

|| Honestly part of me wished that no one would forgive Nolan and no matter what he did it wouldn’t be enough, mostly because I feel like during redemption arcs it’s a constant that the perpetrator gets forgiven all too easily, and they’ve done a pretty good job of showing no one forgiving Nolan but have messed up every part else||

That's still on my watch list but I've seen enough of Jodorowsky in various documentaries that I know what to expect from him

Also Jesus Christ Superstar was more on the "I'm having the time of my life" side of that spectrum than the "woah I need to think about this" one lmao

Poster is out

[arctic flax]

Clayface trailer was cool

More excited for it than supergirl

I hope its as good or better than the swamp thing series

[foggy mirage]

Excited for both on this tbh

Knowing the source material for supergirl

[arctic flax]

supergirl will prolly be good but the trailer didnt hype me as much as this one, besides lobo

not familiar with source as i dont read comics

This and next year will be crazy for cbm

Batman 2, spiderverse(tho i doubt these considering the delays), secret wars, supes

[foggy mirage]

Spider verse is definitely next year

Only one that has questionable anything is doomsday

[arctic flax]

Imagine if they do another delay lmao

I kinda lost excitement for that movie, no longer anticipating it, tho ill def watch it when it comes

It was supposed to drop like 3-4 years ago

[frank rivet]

this is going to be gas i can feel it in my bones

@pine obsidian interstellar ||it’s exactly like Interstellar. That movies plot is exactly a bootstrap paradox. Coop going back in time because he went to space allows him to do the things that motivates him to go to space||

[crimson lichen]

I miss Smiling Friends

[worthy crypt]

Its probably for the best

[pine obsidian]

Interstellar One Piece||Hey so I saw this video about interstellar paradox in the past and thats why i remember this in the first place but Cooper going back in time wasnt cause of Cooper himself, it was cause of the bad situation on the Earth. But Luffy going back in time is probably I guess cause of the poneglyphs and the OP? but these events are cause by Luffy himself as compared to Coopers where he isnt deciding to go back cause of his own events that he will do in the past?

its like Luffy went back because future history exists
but it only exists because Luffy went back

where as Cooper goes back because Earth was in a bad condition iirc
but the bad conditions were there by themselves , as in independent of cooper doing anything or any person time travelling causing them.

Im also not sure if Interstellar is a bootstrap paradox or not but its kind of similar in someways. Are you sure it is bootstrap? But anyways man, this is really fun to discuss tho lol

But in the grand scheme of things with OP as a story do you really think this is better than it being not cause of a time loop? ie Joyboy being a separate person and the Void Century stuff being independent of Luffy and timetravel etc. I find it more mysterious and interesting this way.||

[outer tulip]

I’m so confused

Does this mean it’s good or bad?

[shrewd sigil]

depends on who you trust

critics don't like it but the general audience does

[outer tulip]

that means its good then

[modern lichen]

Lmfao

General audiences reviews mostly consist of stupid bullshit in them so it’s par for the course

[tawny parcel]

Sounds like its really sanitized afaik

[copper phoenix]

its a biopic ran by his estate

if you're a fan and you know what to expect you'll probably enjoy

[upper parcel]

Likely bad. All the critics are criticizing it for pretty much sanitizing Micheal’s image and not really presenting him as a realistic person alongside the struggles he faced. If you want an accurate depiction of Micheal it seems bad, but I guess if you just want an album accompanied by high moments in his life it’s good.

[worthy matrix]

idk if I personally agree with that.
Yeah, The Boys has a lot, and I mean plenty, of writing issues,
but it's still a decent watch imo and I wouldn't really call it "dogshit".
Although I haven't seen Gen V or the two latest seasons of the show yet.
I have heard a lot of criticism towards Season 4, so I am a bit worried.

[arctic flax]

I figured thisd be criric proof lol.

Audience like it for different reason. as long as they get to hear his songs in a theatre, thats good enough

[spiral quest]

I am glad it isnt critic proof. A fictional account of Michael's life does nothing but print money for fans and hides the really bad stuff and sanitizes his image

[modern lichen]

dont think that's even a problem i want a good movie to be made that's interesting instead of a bohemian rhapsody style shambles of stringing along music performances being recreated

like yeah, michael jackson is one of the greatest entertainers of all time and he had a VARIETY of demons and controversies but like... fuqua and the jackson estate is fundamentally averse to (like many other artists who have had their own biopics made like bohemian rhapsody) actually showing importance to the humanity of michael's life and what led to him being what he is

[spiral quest]

I agree with most of your sentiment, but I do think it's a problem to only show a fictional account with none of the controversies and issues he dealt with

Hell from the trailer it doesnt even look like they are going to acknowledge his abusive father

It's a movie attempt at cleaning Michael's rep

[modern lichen]

They do acknowledge his abusive father

[spiral quest]

If they do then that's at least something. Again, Ive only seen the trailer

And of course hearing how the movie is very inaccurate

[modern lichen]

yeah its just not effective or done well

it is brought up and depicted though

again, the problem with shitty music biopics as lampooned so well by walk hard is the shallowness of depicting the human part of these larger than life celebrities
