I know my dad will like that
Weve been talking about king kong vs godzilla for years
regal root
So I just checked, the newest incarnation of Godzilla is about 350 ft tall, KK is only about 104 
sonic quail
regal root
So yeah that monkey better start juicing right now to be up to snuff
regal root
Dude bout to be shooting up a cocktail of HGH and nuclear radiation to bulk up
sonic quail
Lmao what if thats an actual plot point
He just fucking falls on a nuclear power plant
Gets big
Also i just thought of something
He probably did grow
Since that was back in the 50-60s
While@godzilla is present day or close to it
regal root
Yeah the newest Godzilla left off in 2014, from what I can tell the newest KK left off in 1974
So it's possible that KK grew bigger in 40+ years
But he is still going up against a nuclear powered lizard, so at the very least he's gonna need something to make his skin stronger/help him absorb radiation. Otherwise he's gonna get cooked

Phoenix isn’t a hack like Jared leto
sage sleet
It's gonna be rated r I think
errant canopy
It doesn’t matter what rating it is
Dark night was pg13 and was a good joker movie
regal root
I think calling Leto a hack is a bit harsh, he does well if you give him a decent script

Don't believe me? Go watch Requiem for a Dream or Dallas Buyer's Club

Well I guess
He was also pretty good in fight club
And if you haven’t seen that you have lost my respect

What's the first rule of fight club?

Never talk about fight club

And what's the second rule?
errant canopy
NEVER TALK ABOUT FIGHT CLUB

Just saw the Joker trailer, shit looks good

How good we talking here? Like second date guarantee good? Or wifing that good?

Hmm, tough call. My initial impressions would probably be going to your grandma's house, finding a cookie tin, and there actually being cookies inside of it instead of sewing equipment. @sonic quail

pale tapir
Guys question
For those of you who saw the endgame teaser yesterday, how much stuff did it show and would I be better off putting it off until going to see the movie itself?
I'm super tempted, but I'm also really not wanting to spoil myself anymore beyond the first 2 trailers we got
regal root
I'd suggest not seeing it
It's very lightly spoils something that I imagine would've been emotional seeing blind
pale tapir
Okay, good
I'm not going to see it. Thanks Buc
I know the trailer shows ||"thanos's return"||
So I'm already not wanting to watch it because of that.
mighty mist
How come, Strong-Right?
pale tapir
Wdym moon? I just don't want to be spoiled anymore
I didn't like being spoiled on ||Tony making it back to earth|| in the last trailer, so yeah

Aye pasto record that shit

@sage sleet Have fun! I hope you like it

@pale tapir Oh. That's understandable.

The reveal of the ||marvel family had me almost cry|| @sage sleet
Such a good payoff for comic book fans
sage sleet
||I actually did not expect them in the movie||
I'm on a friends pc rn so sorry if things are fucked
pale tapir
Me neither! It was such a comic book thing and so un-dc like
I'm so glad it wasn't shown in any promo material
sage sleet
||was the caterpillar supposed to be brainiac?||
oh for sure
would have ruined it all
sage sleet
||never heard of them||
pale tapir
Also also, I'm really glad they kept some things for future movies
It was so good!!!!!
sage sleet
||I was fr sitting there counting on my finger||
||7 deadly sins, 7 wizards, 6 kids||
pale tapir
It felt so original and fresh. ||The magic aspect of it and the cave gave me real Aladdin vibes from where. I was a kid||
sage sleet
||my dumbass forgot about black adam||
pale tapir
Yep yep yep
Also he did use ||the wisdom of Solomon to lure out envy||
So he technically did use all of his powers I think
pale tapir
I'm surprised ||he didn't even have a cameo ):||
sage sleet
final end credit was funny but sorta weak
pale tapir
It was a cheeky in joke yeah. The only thing that stopped me from giving it a 10 was like I said
It got borderline too goofy at times
pale tapir
That being said ||I was dying when the kids all said Billy||
Exactly, too goofy, but honestly the vibe works
And it is out and out a comic book movie. And it owns it
sage sleet
||They really left mary in the dust when they got the powers||
pale tapir
I'm not sure, but my hope is that the reason that happened is ||because she got all of the abilities||
||So she's like the girl Shazam now||

What you guys talking about?
sage sleet
||ok so I didn't catch on. do they all have the power or is it split up? I thought split until they all started flying||

Hi pastooooo
pale tapir
Exactly, but I think like. ||Each one of them specializes in a certain ability||
pale tapir
I'm off to bed too Pasto, I'm really glad you enjoyed it. Also I'd have to rewatch it, maybe ||they all have certain abilities they're better at or have a higher level of control over, but they possess all the powers. That's my headcanon||

Idris Elba is no longer going to be deadshot in the new suicide squad, to avoid confusion. Seems like It's likely they're gonna having him play Bronze Tiger instead, to try and copy Black Panther.
regal root
Could just switch him back to a white guy like he is in the comics, unless they're dead set on keeping him black which is whatever
neon coral
That wouldn't really do much. They seem to want to avoid having deadshot in the new movie entirely. It's still gonna be deadshot, no matter the race.
regal root
True, just don't know who would be a good fit since that would be the lead
Tyler James Williams wouldn't be half bad
Really liked him in The Walking Dead
neon coral
lol everybody hates chris
And deadshot isn't the lead anymore. that's the whole point
Lead is gonna be Idris Elba. As someone else.
regal root
Ah
K just saw they've removed Deadshot completely, that's dumb. He's one of the key members
neon coral
there's always been different members of the squad. So no Deadshot doesn't bother me too much. Just annoys me that this is happening so people don't confuse a good actor with a shit one like Will smith
grave robin
I just want a good Harley Quinn smh
regal root
Margot Robbie does a great job though as Harley
neon coral
They're comic book characters. Not like it takes much to pull them off. Margot does a good job as Harley but I think plenty of others would do too. Same goes for any superhero role so far
cold dock
But not Wolverine
mighty mist
Oh, yeah, Rebelled?
neon coral
Wolverine too. Hugh Jackman is a great actor but a short hairy dude in a suit would do just as well considering whats required of Wolverine
neon coral
Its comics. they could bring him back. "oh this is Wolverine from this other reality.. Why does he smell like that? Why is he so rude?" lol
cold dock
Constant reboots are killing the industry as it is
neon coral
Eh, It's what brings in money now apparently. People don't seem to want great stories and acting anymore. Just stuff they know they used to like, and glorified hallmark movies. Everything kinda blends in together now, like artists.
cold dock
Actually its causing publishers to lose more money
sure its good in short term
but long term
hooleeyyy
mighty mist
I still like great stories and acting, Rebelled. 😦
cold dock
Oh but movies is a different story
mighty mist
😦
cold dock
why so sad @mighty mist?
mighty mist
Because of what you said, Shepherd. 😦
cold dock
I'm saying the movies are doing better than the comics, so do not feel sad moonlitinuyasha1985.😟
neon coral
Yeah, when they attempted to make comics more of a household thing than they are, they did a lot of damage. I'm not really into them that much but I saw a lot of that controversy go down.
calm sun
There's a rumor they might shut down the marvel comics division
And just have the comics made contractually from others and not in house
neon coral
you either have dudes make comics, which will offend SJWs, or have SJWs make comics and nobody reads them.
In that regards, I'm glad Japan has always been immune to controversies that could ruin companies/industries in places like America.
calm sun
Japanese comics have Japanese nationalist controversies
But those seem to not have taken over

I watched shazaam @sage sleet @regal root some hella really good shiz
Oh u saw it too @pale tapir
pale tapir
It was so good!!
hoary hawk
Agreed
||I think that all the kids got one of the individual power that shazam possessed but mary maybe had intelligence? There was a reason she prob wasnt shown more||
I loved all the comedy scenes and everything though, laughed a lot
And thoroughly enjoyed it
Also booked my avengers tickets openkng night
regal root
I heard a lot of good things, gonna try to see it within the next week
grave robin
I heard Shazam was hilarious
mighty mist
I love hilarious films. 😃
neon coral
so DC finally pulled off a lighter-toned movie with good comedy? Does The Rock show up in it?
I forgot avengers was out this year. Hopefully gets added to netflix quick
calm sun
I doubt that'll happen
neon coral
Why? All the other marvel movies have gone up on netflix shortly after home release
calm sun
but are they still doing that
neon coral
I don't see why they wouldn't. Every marvel movies gone up on there. Would be weird for them to decide "hey this is the end of the thanos arc, so we aren't releasing this one on netflix"
calm sun
Has infinity war gone on it
neon coral
Yes. Ant man 2 as well
neon coral
They've been saying that for 2 years now and they're all still showing up on netflix. Also, I don't think disneys streaming service is available outside the US.
sonic quail
Fuck that
neon coral
New season of The Tick is up on Amazon. It's awesome.
hoary hawk
whats it about
neon coral
It's a superhero comic from the 90s. Amazon gave it a live adaptation. Second season just came out. It's kinda hard to explain. It's not the most serious thing, more of a comedy. There was a cartoon about it in the 90s and another live adaptation in early 2000 which became one of those Cult hits

Pet Sematary. All begins with a idiot father who unable to let it go and tell the truth
I will bury my dying wife in the cursed cemetry to revive her with dark magic

Yeah, he's an idiot. 😐
sonic quail
Everyone deals with grief differently. Its natural to want ur loved ones back and plenty people would do it if they had the opportunity.
Thats one of the reasons the book is so popular
Calling him stupid misses the whole point. Its fucked up yea but understandable and relatable
dim hedge
Why do you think letting go is the best option
Every novel that gives you the chance to bring someone back always ask for something called a price
Harry potter." Ressurection" stone The first guy who got it commit suicide
Anakin. His burning desire for order and unwillingness to let go made him turn to the dark side
Batman. The unwillingness to give himself happiness until it become something villains used on him. Have Catwoman break his heart into a million pieces
It not showing grief. it showing just how grief can be turned into something dark and self destructive

Stephen King: I will turn everything into horror.
knotty fox
I'm thinking of seeing either Captain Marvel or Shazam before Endgame. Which one should I go for?
regal root
I'd suggest Shazam cause I've routinely heard that CM is skippable
mighty mist
I'd rather see Shazam.
Plus, I heard that Brie Larson's portrayal of CM made her sound like a snob.
regal root
I mean she is a snob irl so
crimson lance
I mean Only CM has a affect on Endgame as shazam is dceu but Shazam is better apparently
mighty mist
Ah.
regal root
I have yet to hear 1 bad thing about Shazam, meanwhile I've heard a shit ton of people say CM was underwhelming
regal root
Not necessarily bad, just no where near as good as it sounds like it could've been
crimson lance
Everyone excepts flops from DCEU so shazam being decent is more of a achievement than CM being average
mighty mist
Makes sense.
sage sleet
Idk if my message will send because no data but Shazam is the superior movie and I'm not saying this as a dc fanboy. Cm is good not great nothing new. The acting is good in it the problem is yhe writing. Shazam was top tier it was new and had legit everything. A great time
And cm barely ties into endgame. Its basically shit we've already guessed
regal root
This is legit the tie into Endgame: ||She shows up at the Avengers HQ right after her pager stops ringing and says "Where's Fury?"|| That's it, that's literally the tie in
mint kiln
It didnt send
mighty mist
So we've all heard.
crimson lance
I think im going to see pet sematary on wenseday but i want to see shazam
regal root
I'm never particularly big on remakes, unless of course the original was trash in which case go ahead
crimson lance
I'm going because my dad is taking me and he doesnt want to see another superhero movie right away
especially since we have to see Endgame soon
neon coral
Yeah, too many hero movies can get annoying. Shazam looks to be different than the usual marvel and dc stuff, though. I'm just disappointed The Rock/Black Adam weren't a thing for it.
hoary hawk
u'll enjoy ur time
sonic quail
Buc remakes are ok if they take a different approach and this one has stephen kings blessing as well
The analogy he used was take a different route to the same location
From what ive heard this one isnt bad
crimson lance
It doesnt look different from marvel stuff honestly
I havent seen it but from the promos it seems like they finally reealzied marvel movies work and their movies dont
sonic quail
It is because it takes a different approach to tropes
neon coral
I mean, pumping out a bunch of high budget hallmark films isn't a good thing.
sonic quail
wdym
neon coral
Marvel movies.
sonic quail
I mean i get people getting fatigued by super hero movies
But thats why ya dont gotta see em
There were a few marvel movies i still havent seen because of it
crimson lance
I dont get fatigued by em and i dont even know if my dad does, he hasnt made any complaints but he doesnt seem too interested in most of them
neon coral
Ya. Glorified hallmark movies lol
hoary hawk
ignore the "clearly meant to rile you up with a stupid opinion" comment
which has been uttered twice to get some kind of reaction
neon coral
Simple story, simple acting, a lot of cuts and CGI to fill the rest. They can be fun sometimes but so are tv hallmark films for old people.
crimson lance
Marvel movies have a story and work put into them
neon coral
You mean more money
crimson lance
yeah alot of them are similar but so are alot of movies in the same genre
hoary hawk
most movies/makes in the industry have some kind of source behind it, the source behind the movies are the comics written many years ago (taken from different adaptations) and the acting is far superior to what most movies are propping out today, it has actual substance to it
neon coral
In the end, they are movies made to appeal to the masses. Get rid of the CGI and all the action cuts and what you've got left are a bunch of lucky actors who got high paying roles that don't require too much acting.
hoary hawk
many movie have started adapting to cuts because of marvel and how they've induced their comedy
and the CGI only started becoming introduced recently in the past few years
neon coral
And that's why movies have kinda gone to hell. It's all becoming the same shit because that's what "works".
hoary hawk
just because you consider yourself above these movies doesn't mean they're hallmark movies
neon coral
Just because you're a fanboy, doesn't mean my opinion is "stupid" and trying to "rile people up". Its just a discussion.
neon coral
Youd know all about those
neon coral
Now move on, I don't care to have this discussion with you.
hoary hawk
to garner some kind of reaction
yet you were the one who put down the statement to garner as the catalyst
regal root
Madea movies
sonic quail
Superhero movies are whats hot
neon coral
Quite a few. Some movies know who their audience is. Just like some game devs do. Not everything has to be made to appeal to everybody but Marvel movies are kinda that.
hoary hawk
when iron man 1 was released, it was such a huge risk for everyone involved in the process. he was a b class superhero first of all, the actor had actually no good backing to him (except drug problems) and the concept was rivaled by very subpar marvel hero movies in the past
and they lived off of that hype
you blame them for that?
if dc or any other studio could have done the same thing, they would have in an instant
neon coral
K.
sonic quail
Those types of movies and games are and few
Because theyre not successful monetarily for that reason
neon coral
Yeah, but there's quality and passion behind them.
sonic quail
Like what u like
hoary hawk
i don't mind you disliking marvel movies but you must have actual proof of why they are "hallmark movies" other than the norm criticism i can find on every rotten tomatoes review
quality and passion are both subjective
sonic quail
And what makes u think these super hero movies dont have passion?
Cuz lots of money?
U dont think these people are doing enst they love
hoary hawk
has anyone ever seen that video when Marvel gets almost every significant hero/character they've ever had in their movies set up in one room?
it's one of the most marvelous things ever
because the room was filled with at least hundred to 200 ppl
neon coral
You look at them and its just a bunch of back to back cuts of peoples faces and CGI. I just think the people making them love money more than they do acting because there's not much of that going on. That's what Disneys about. I'm sure some people are passionate about the projects but I doubt any of them are as passionate as the fans who will take every opportunity to defend Marvel movies.
hoary hawk
i'm assuming you don't know any comic fiends
or have any friends who are comic fiends
those same comic fiends who grew up in an era of "tough marvel movies" in the 90s and 00s absolutely adore this move and the content it brings
not because of the cuts or CGI but because of the actual content displayed
sonic quail
I mean peoples likes are not dependent upon the passion that went into the work tho
Not to mention most people arent movie buffs
Nor shoukd they be
If thats what ur passionate about then i get ur dissatisfaction
But theres no need to assume that others should have the same standards as values
I personally am tired of live action adaptations and remakes
But theyre popular for a reason
hoary hawk
oh man preach
hoary hawk
the current industry is either super hero movies or live action adaptations of movies that made it big as animations in the 90's
sonic quail
Film has always been at the end of the fay about money
hoary hawk
or not even animations, look at jumanji
there is an over-flux and i can understand the disappointment
neon coral
I do. I used to enjoy reading them too. These movies aren't as interesting to me. Some Superhero movies do good, but most are just generic. You look at something like Deadpool and that's good. But anyone with cinematography knowledge will see the issues with Disney/Marvel stuff. Movies have taken a huge hit in recent years and what sucks is that they're more profitable than ever.
sonic quail
Cuz thats what people want right now
hoary hawk
i love the new joker trailer, i'm pretty sure he's a villain
not because it's a fresh take
but because I love the character
and love how the trailer thus far has displayed him as that enigmatic clown
crimson lance
Speaking of joker i really like what seems to be a movie in which joker causes a bit of a Movement
I like the idea
crimson lance
Yeah idk him but he looked good in the trailor
Oh also i saw a fun theory but i hope its not true, Something like He isnt the joker but the guy who motivates the joker, as Bruce wayne is still a child during this movie, and Joker is in his 30/40s already, So this joker just motivates the next one
neon coral
Ya. I'm glad this happened over the Jared Leto joker movie. Looks really interesting.
Well, in the comics there's multiple Jokers, right? So that could be plausible
hoary hawk
yes, there are
and it's a plausible theory
but I still think this is "the" joker
time is quite relative in the DC world
if anyone's ever seen Gotham
crimson lance
nah i never touched it
hoary hawk
Cw shows are hot trash
neon coral
CW shows are too much to get into. It's confusing
hoary hawk
After 2 seasons
neon coral
At first when it was flash/arrow, whatever.
hoary hawk
Arrow and Flash s1 and s2 amazing
neon coral
Ya.
crimson lance
Yeah they are shit
i still liked em
I think its mostly due to my want to finish a story if i can like it a bit
If i like one episode of a show and the rest is shit ill still finish it most of the time
neon coral
that's about when I stopped. Arrow I got to s4 though. I lost interest It felt like I had to watch 5 shows at once to keep up
hoary hawk
After that, its a constant reiteration of the same ep diluted with diff villains and diff "probs" but it just shows the respective heroes struggling with something internally, losing, getting a inspiration speech and then somehow winning
crimson lance
I got to the first few episodes of all the latest seasons
ill catch up when arrow ends next season
neon coral
Constantine was fun when it was on NBC
hoary hawk
Their characters never develop whatsoever, they are like cardboards and make the same mistakes
And the characters never really die
Constantine s1 is one of the best shows ever to not continue
crimson lance
One of the big issues with Flash and Arrow is how they want the characters to become a family man
neon coral
It sucks they right away put it in the worst timeslot
they even introduced the spectre. That's quality DC Magic tv
hoary hawk
People who actually took their time to watch the show absolutely loved Constantine
I loved he voiced Constantine in the dark batman animated movie
neon coral
Matt Ryan was the perfect casting
knotty fox
Alright in that case I'll check out Shazam
crimson lance
i never touched constantine but he was alright in Legends
hoary hawk
AND showed up on Arrow
crimson lance
oh and on arrow
hoary hawk
Yes pls check out Shazam, it was actually good
crimson lance
Altough i didnt like his character type, I fucking hate the badass/too good for this character
neon coral
Arrow fell apart when they embraced their loud fanbase
hoary hawk
I mostly support Zachary Levi finally having a big role after I watched Chuck so long ago
crimson lance
They only embrace the part of it that wants shitty characters to have More time
hoary hawk
And he was a great goofy character in there
knotty fox
Idk if I want to get into the DC CW shows
crimson lance
Aka tumblr
hoary hawk
And hes amazing in the movie
Felicity has to be one of the most awful adapted charscters in the show
crimson lance
Yeah
neon coral
Yeah.
crimson lance
Iris west isnt too great either, she was good in the first two seasons
knotty fox
The only DC CW show that I really want to see is Arrow
crimson lance
Once the main character settles for a female character they go down
Well you cant just watch arrow
Watch arrow and flash at least
neon coral
Iris and Barry are a thing in comics though. It'd be like If they made Cisco the love interest instead of her
sage sleet
Iris was ass season 1
knotty fox
Flash seems intriguing but I heard it suck later on
crimson lance
The issue isnt if iris is the love interest its if they're well done
knotty fox
And Supergirl is just SJW propaganda from what I've heard
sage sleet
Yeah
neon coral
women are powerful dude, remember that.
sage sleet
We might be getting a super girl movie in the near future so it's g
Have you guys seen parks and rec
neon coral
has any actor trying to petition for a hero role ever pulled it off
crimson lance
Idk most likley not
neon coral
I remember the fast and furious dude trying to pitch himself as Green Lantern a while back and now he has no career
crimson lance
Unless its on tv it seems impossible to say hey i want a role
You have to go get the role
knotty fox
I was planning to see it in this order: https://flash-arrow-order.herokuapp.com/
crimson lance
That order includes Supergirl yuck
neon coral
imagine needing a website to be able to watch a show lol
crimson lance
also includes vixen and constatine
neon coral
wasnt vixen animated?
crimson lance
Constatine is good apparently but i didnt know vixen existed
neon coral
or did they go live action with that too
Constantine is short too. 13 episodes I think
knotty fox
Looking at this list, I'm not sure if I'm going to enjoy switching shows through episodes.
neon coral
I meant her own series that's tied to the CW universe
crimson lance
I personally went this way: Watch arrow until flash is introduced
neon coral
Yup and that's why CW shows are such a pain to get into, Shreeder.
crimson lance
Continue watching both at the same time in what ever order you want
Eventually pick up legends when it starts because its good
neon coral
I don't even have a place to watch them without pirating
knotty fox
Most of them are on Netflix iirc.
crimson lance
i use to have netflix but my parents didnt pay the bill this month
Yeah every one is on netflix just not the latest seasons
They come out eventually
knotty fox
Ah
neon coral
Not in Canada I think
knotty fox
Vixen isn't there apparently
neon coral
the US gets so many streaming services and shows
crimson lance
I mean we get alot of stuff rejected too
neon coral
you guys get Hulu, Disney and all the other services. No access to those here.
crimson lance
i mean
Besides hulu netflix and amazon
Stuff like disney or CB or HBO suck
Just pirate it
neon coral
Canada has Netflix, Amazon, Crave, a broken version of funimation & also crunchy, that's kinda it.
neon coral
Funimation is a really poor service overall. Bad UI, hard to watch stuff, doesn't work a lot of the time and there's 0 security. You can cancel anyones account by contacting customer support aslong as you know their email
Or even renew without being the account owner
knotty fox
Btw was Inhumans that bad?
neon coral
Wasn't great. But I think their marketing is what screwed it up. They launched that series in IMAX.
neon coral
SHIELD was a fun series
neon coral
It's a slow start but It gets good. they tie into movies here and there

F*** Captain Marvel - she is the most unlikable and pompous piece of s--- to grace comics
crimson lance
whys that
knotty fox
^
cold dock
She's a friggin dictator who values her opinions above others and believes she's always right
regal root
Think it would be best for you to read the comics to find out for yourself, suffice to say there is a very good reason why she has had 5 different comic cancellations in the past 2-3 years
knotty fox
5
regal root
Yup
knotty fox
huh
regal root
5 starring her which all sold poorly enough to warrant getting cancelled
cold dock
Heck, she arrested a child and killed Bruce Banner for crimes they never commited yet
neon coral
Her last comics just felt like SJW/PC shit.
knotty fox
killed Bruce

she arrested Miles Morales

Suffice to say it's pretty close to what Shepherd said, she is not a likable comic character whatsoever and yet Marvel keeps slamming the idea into us (the viewers) head that she is "the most popular hero in the Marvel universe"
knotty fox
Spidey's right there tho
regal root
Disney don't care
crimson lance
i dont remember marvel saying she was the most popular character
regal root
Almost every single comic I've read starring her has mentioned that
cold dock
oh bloody f***
regal root
Honestly I'd take ugly ass Squirrel Girl over current comic Captain Marvel
regal root
At the very least the character will be partly redeemed by that cute insurance commercial girl playing her in live action
knotty fox
I miss her old design
neon coral
its a marvel movie made to appeal to girls to get that audience into marvel films. even has the 80s theme for all the people who are into the new 80s show trend
I wish DC didn't change Shazams name. Would've been funny for him to be Captain Marvel too
knotty fox
crimson lance
shazam is a better name
regal root
What do you mean Shreeder, are you saying we shouldn't like this? https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1600/0*CdybjsAUToKNVGzZ.PNG
knotty fox
Why does she look so derpy
neon coral
Shazam is a better name but the reason that wasnt his name is pretty obvious
cold dock
But doesn't excuse the character
knotty fox
It's not just the panel it seems like the artist in general
neon coral
wow
cold dock
f***, squirrel girl should have been the lead
regal root
Again, Disney doesn't care
cold dock
MARVEL no care
regal root
Disney owns Marvel
And ultimately they are the ones in charge of who gets hired/fired and what product they produce
cold dock
Yeah but Disney is planning to shut down the comics division
knotty fox
huh
neon coral
comic artists have had so much drama lately
regal root
Good, at this point they're shitting over Stan Lee's legacy
neon coral
some shops have been banning comics made by guys because "its sexist to have only guys make comics"
knotty fox
neon coral
bunch of shit went on around that and other stuff and then marvel started firing artists because of gender/race, and hired women, lbgt+ and other "visible minorities" because they thought they could get that market. Instead they kinda shot themselves in the foot
knotty fox
Jeez
cold dock
Basically Marvel hired people who had never read a comic
knotty fox
How are the DC comics now in these days?
cold dock
or any experience with comics
neon coral
then anyone trying to say this is dumb, why are you firing people over this? would get harassed/attacked online and called nazis, trump supporters, homophobes, racists, etc.
knotty fox
What did those Zoe Quinn do wrong

the local shop where I live had to shut down because of that

DC is better, but some people cough Gail Simone cough write so lazily as if they were friggin bad fanfiction writers who can't come up with any clever jokes or plot threads

She fucked a bunch of gaming journalist big wigs to get herself promoted while in a relationship, in the process it spiraled out of control to where gaming journalists attacked the entire gaming community

2 dudes were living their dream of running a comic book/boardgame/MTG shop. Never did anything wrong. Lost it all because internet didn't like male run shops.

I think it'd be better if there was a writer to stick with a single storyline each. Multiple writers for a single story seems to butcher it up now in these days

On the plus side, D&C is suing Mark Waid for Tortuous Interference. Gotta say it looks like he has a slam dunk case.

I think that's where Mangas > american comics

I love Japanese literature so much for not giving 2 shits about what they write
cold dock
Same

It's refreshing to see nowadays
neon coral
Ya.

It's just fun and enjoyable. Most shit that's a huge focus in American comics, are a non-issue with Japan.

You recall all the faux-outrage when Goblin Slayer came out, and then got followed up by Shield Hero?

Because "REEE False rape accusations almost never happen"

And yeah the slavery to a degree
neon coral
there's so much fabricated outrage for the sake of it
cold dock
I know this is supposed to be in #games, but why tf did Bandai censor the Hot Springs Mission in world Seeker!?

I'm sure it's not genuine, it's just people looking to get mad/sympathy points

On a side note, It always makes me laugh when an anime or manga will show a womans nipple for no fucking reason, while not a single one of the male characters has any.

Is it that SJW's can't handle chicks healthier than them?

It was only teased. Not officially announced yet

This is the biggest clue we've gotten in a while. And I'm sure we'll get an announcement soon

Lmao one of my co-workers thinks captain marvel was better than Shazam
mint kiln
Wow, how dare your co-worker have different taste
pale tapir
Right?! Especially when it's the wrong taste
pale tapir
Now you're speaking my language Youss
Jk, in all seriousness, the only reason I'm clowning on him is because his reasons didn't make a lot of sense to me personally lol
sonic quail
I mean
Shazam was just charming as hell
Also funny and does different shit with some tropes
Cap marvel was meh.
cold dock
Cap Marvel ain't good
It was mediocre at best
Dogs*** at worst
It was basically the poor mans (or womans) Thor, who still falls astronomically lower than that
If you liked the movie, you must have liked Transformers ROTF because they are equally terrible movies
mighty mist
I never saw Captain Marvel. And I never will.
pale tapir
@cold dock I said this to him for the most part
He told me, that he thinks "Captain Marvel had a much more original story, along with better characters, plus Samuel Jackson automatically makes any movie he's in superior to most others"
I countered with shot composition, the passion of the acting, the story being much more unique from a typical superhero style fantasy, color grading, all that. He didn't budge lol
mighty mist
Wha~t?
neon coral
just tell him "this is why I only talk to you at work"
pale tapir
Lmao I should have. He isn't the sharpest guy I know if I'm being honest
He is very biased towards brie Larson. He has a crush on her, which is what he told me last week so he probably doesn't wanna betray his "bae"
mighty mist
But, Bae means poop.
pale tapir
mighty mist
Though, in all seriousness, bae really does mean poop and Brie Larson can suck it.
pale tapir
Bahaha, I like brie Larson, but she's kinda like Chris Hemsworth was as Thor originally. Too forced for me
Also he literally said "when she blew hair off her face, that won me over" so. Yeah. He's a special guy
neon coral
Yeah but Chris Hemsworth has a nice butt. She does not
mighty mist
Nope.
pale tapir
Exactly Pasto. Like the whole "she's the strongest character in the mcu" bs. I'm not buying that
They literally stated she was a Mary Sue and is the best. Deal with it
Also Chris Hemsworth got a good arc in Ragnarok-Infinity War. He's won me over now
sage sleet
I wanted to like her the whole movie
but it was either like her rn or leave the theater
I think if captain marvel had a movie before IW she'd do a lot better
and the box office results are not an accurate representation of how good the movie is
I hate how people are calling it revolutionary
pale tapir
Yeah, the problem is the whole movie was to set her up as a viable plot device for endgame and nothing more
Which is why Shazam> Captain Marvel. Any day of the week
pale tapir
Damn right
As someone who's read Carol's comics though don't get me wrong. I love captain marvel (girl)
That's why I'm so critical of the movie
She was very well done when she took up the mantle from mar-vell
regal root
Not gonna lie, haven't seen Shazam yet but I'm already looking forward to seeing Shazam vs Black Adam, Dwayne bout to get clapped
pale tapir
Buc you are in for a treat my friend 😁😁😁
sage sleet
I don't even know what to say about shazam
it's one of those movies where if you say it's bad you might have problems
yes it's a superhero movie but it felt like more
pale tapir
I totally agree with you though Pasto
Which is why I don't understand my coworker, but also. he isn't as critical/knowledgeable about the aspects of the movie I criticized, so I guess in that regard I respect his perspective
It's an ignorant perspective imo, if I'm being honest, but it's his perspective
sage sleet
my friend didn't like it but he's one of those if it's mainstream it's bad
and he's an incel lmao
I was watching anime with some friends of friends and the girls start talking about captain marvel
I'm about to say it was good not great when they start praising the movie
I asked why they liked it so much
"she's a bad bitch"
sage sleet
you can't just like a movie because of an actor, character, idea
I love DC but I won't sit here and tell you all of the movies were 10/10 because I love DC
pale tapir
Yeah, same. And I'm a huge marvel fanboy
The thing about Carol in the comics (the one they chose to loosely adapt) is she acts kinda cocky, but she's also funny and cool and you DO believe she can stand with thor and the rest
They've taken it too far now imo, but it seems like they're fixing it again with the new Avengers run Jason Aaron is writing
pale tapir
Yeah. But in the movie... Eh. She was badass, but what else? Shrugs
sage sleet
she was badass but it was like trying to impress badass
pale tapir
A try hard lmao
regal root
Sweaty
sage sleet
the fact that it's being called revolutionary is something else
I enjoyed my time but I wasn't being carried out in a stretcher at the end
@regal root when do you plan on seeing it
regal root
Sometime this week
sage sleet
good man
I saw it in a super trashy theater
lot of people are taking their kids and tuning out
pale tapir
I agree. I feel like people are just trying to lump it in with the other truly revolutionary things marvel has done because it's the first female led superhero film done by marvel
But the truly revolutionary things to me are the super well done things which celebrate what makes the source material great as well as send a message. I.E: Black Panther
Or in terms of just revolutionary: The Avengers
sage sleet
BP, iron man, IW
those all make sense
then CM?
it just doesn't make sense
we all know why it's making this much money and it's sad
sad it covers up other deserving movies
like I heard alita was so good but people would choose CM
and I even heard people would buy tickets to CM and see alita to support CM
pale tapir
Damn, that's so horrible tbh
That marvel money + pretending to be progressive by inserting a female protagonist! 💰 💰 💰
😓😒😒
sage sleet
what gets me
what really gets me
is that people keep calling it the first female led movie
you have no idea how much i've heard that
knotty fox
sage sleet
they forgot about the fat list of movies
pale tapir
Yeah, Wonder woman was just the first good super hero movie with a female lead
Not even the first female led superhero movie
neon coral
they always do that with movies "we were the first to" even though they weren't. just marketing

People forgot Alien

A friend was ranting about jim lee to me for a week
great comic creator
Batman Hush is sick from what I hear
excited for the animated movie
cold dock
Jim Lee is the best comic artist around
his work on X-Men and Batman are legendary
he also hosts a twitch channel dedicated to art streams
check it out, the way he works is Godly
sage sleet
he sucks ass at deadlines
that's why he went to DC from image
he's great at what he does but he can't complete things in time
DC basically begged him to join them
cold dock
wait what?
sage sleet
hm?
cold dock
He doesn't seem like the type to miss deadlines
sage sleet
he was abysmal with them lol
but he's insanely good DC can look past it
Image not so much because they were the underdog
cold dock
And he sold his studio to DC because Image was on edge at the time
and he couldn't risk his career
Image now was vastly different from Image back then
Image back then was almost dying
Until Rob Kirkman came in
sage sleet
Image was a bunch of a bunch of young knuckleheads from marvel that went on to make image
mad respect for what they did
I'd be terrified if I were them
sage sleet
they had no clue what they were doing with the business aspect
I should read comics
I'm so used to manga
I have the dc subscription so I have all the comics I could want
sage sleet
that's what I hear
sage sleet
I hear the new shazam comics by geoff johns is great
what the movie is based off of I think
cold dock
Movie is based off the character
sage sleet
ah that's what it was
pale tapir
@sage sleet the new shazam comics were a back up in the new 52 justice league runs, but now they're available in one big trade. Also it covers shazam's whole origin and has Black Adam in it. Probably a great source for the sequel as well. Just wanted to drop this little nugget off for you (:
(It covers the first big fight with Black Adam too)
cold dock
You like the new 52 Strong?
pale tapir
I read the whole run yeah
I stopped reading comics a bit before rebirth, but I've kept up with the main events and stuff
Same thing with the marvel universe being rebooted after secret wars
pale tapir
Batman in 52 was amazing early on. Court of Owls is still one of my top Batman stories
cold dock
Same here
pale tapir
Also have you read Brian Azarello's Wonder woman? I highly recommend it if you haven't
Same with Francis Manpaul's Flash
cold dock
I heard it's good
pale tapir
I know new 52 got some hate, but it isn't entirely warranted imo
pale tapir
There were still good stories, but they butchered Superman
cold dock
IKR
pale tapir
Thankfully big blue is back to himself now with rebirth
pale tapir
Also they made martian manhunter his old Oreo loving self 
cold dock
Lol
pale tapir
I didn't like them making him "neutral" 
cold dock
yeah, it was just off
pale tapir
I mean, he was a hero but he didn't get along with the JLA
Which as stupid but oh well. I liked some stuff a lot. Making lex the hero of forever evil was awesome
pale tapir
Plus, that was the best event since flashpoint and one of my favorite events along with blackest night/infinite crisis
cold dock
Flashpoint was the best story I read
pale tapir
Geoff Johns is basically DC Jesus though, so I always have faith in him hahaha
cold dock
Faith in Johns is always satisfying
pale tapir
DC Rebirth's oneshot is an example of how to write a master comic imho
cold dock
Have you read Sean Gordon Murphy's Batman White Knight
cold dock
I'm hyped for the sequel
pale tapir
I don't keep up with main continuity much anymore, but every once in a while a story will come up that I can't help but follow
Like Nick Spencer's Spider-Man right now
It's so fucking good
cold dock
Really, I am a bit 50/50 on it
pale tapir
Or Jason Aaron's Avengers. But he's becoming the Geoff Johns of marvel haha
I've followed him since he was writing wolverine, then Thor and now this
Also why do you say that?
I like it, he's acknowledging so many things Dan slott ignored
pale tapir
I think he's working his way up tbh
