oh yeah it works great as background noise lmao
Tdk is really good, but I would like to see another kind of batman
btw harsh i was thinking of watching some of the batman animated movies too
do i need to watch the whole show for them?
I mean, if you make 10 movies about the same character, at least differentiate it a bit
nice
mask of the phantasm right?
i didnt feel like watching it anyways even though it was great
yeah its long
yeah mask of the phantasm mainly
so if you're considering watching the animated series, you gotta go episode by episode
because episodes are one off stories with the occasional two parters
i will get to that one day, just wanna go through the movies rn
is there any other worth watching?
yeah go for it
uh... if you're watching the animated movies, watch the dark knight returns, year one and under the red hood adaptations, consider long halloween as well
long halloween as well is an adaptation and a two parter
dark knight returns as well is a two parter
the adaptations i mentioned above is also in the comics list i made thats in the pins
oh thats neat
i have a whole batman list i made thats in the pins
I haven't really read anything
Nono, I mean like monographic issues
is tom kings batman run any good harsh?
initially
it goes downhill pretty fast
hmmm
just read toms mister miracle and it was incredible so I was wondering
mister miracle is great
tom king's human target thats running now is pretty cool too
i'll get back with a list later, hildi
mister miracle is related to DC
thats not one off
you would need a bit of a context there
yeah that was completely unrelated lol
Oh, I've also read Nameless
I really enjoyed it
Especially for the ||dark grim cosmos mystery thriller setting||
||cosmic horror, is the term i was trying tell lol || nameless
Finished Black Widow
Was ok tbh, not as bad as I expected from what I heard but yeah it's still below average ig
Shang-chi time
Szn 1?
Yep
early GOT was so so good
might be the case
but i think it's mostly just him having a change in priorities
i think he always liked shorter stories more so he's doing dunk and egg
plus making shows is probably more exciting to him aswell
he is interested in everything but the main story
they're trying to make a whole cinematic universe with westeros/essos
it's such a shame
house of the dragon actually looks fuckin dope tho
the good thing about prequels is that the ending is already set in stone
the general synopsis is there just needs to be fleshed out
yeah i think they mightve taken a lot of input from george himself
so its just a matter of putting in the details
hope they do more than one season tho the story they're covering is huge
it seems to me like D&D were kinda actively dismissing him during the production of GOT
as their egos got bigger and bigger
so yeah george is making sure to be more involved now which is good for the show
for the better
I've decided. I'm gonna read this for now
Mkay
Oh god Hildi
What?
That's one of the more egregious Ennis ones too
It's good?
I just don't know if you'll like that one
I picked randomly
I don't mind explicit
Well
The synopsis gave me the idea it'd be gore
dont
its so bad
its just insanely bad
its laughably bad
please dont read that
ennis peaked with preacher
everything else has been downhill
That's about it
the boys is bad as well
billy?
yeah, billy especially in the show is made cooler
Karl Urban 
but the show as well i dont really enjoy much anymore
hopefully season 3 is better
read wicked + divine hildi
And it was just... gross tbh
Let me look it up
It's not just gore
just too gross vic
This?
There's always The Walking Dead or Invincible
yeah that
thats a good comic thats already done too
but its 75 issues, kinda long
There are 45 issues on this site
The great hunt (WoT book 2) ch 34 || not Dena nooooo

Avatar 2 trailer || https://youtu.be/NZrX_ES93JA ||
AVATAR 2: THE WAY OF WATER Trailer (2022) Sam Worthington, Sigourney Weaver, James Cameron, Sci-Fi Movie
© 2022 - Disney / 20th Century Studios
MoM watchers probably already seen it
I don't really care about it but it looks cool i guess
Settings new limits in tech and visuals for cinema
I don’t know who that is or what that means
Director of terminator, aliens and titanic

If you show me a face i may recognize him
Idk
I don’t memorize people’s names that I don’t care about
Im hyped, sure itll be a top ten movie of the year
Shitty content
Ok
I love this new harsh
Yeah I get it, and I can relate too
But yeah, Cameron is a director who did Terminator, Titanic and Avatar
Titanic and Avatar were consequently the two highest grossing films ever made
And he is weirdly obsessed with water
They did gangbusters at the box office and broke records
Endgame surpassed it at some point but Avatar reclaimed that spot again
Terminator, Terminator 2, Aliens, the man's resume is just incredible
Avatar sucked tho
I didn't like that movie
I thought it was great
I forgot about that movie like a day after i watched it
And i watched it in imax 😭
Lol how 
Dude... I don't know LMAO
I rewatched it later down the line and holy shit was I bored
First viewing in 3d was def the best, but I still enjoyed it for what it was on tv just a few months ago
Yeah, the 3D experience was cool but it felt very gimmicky, the plot wasn't strung well together and it just fell flat for me with the characters
Hoping the writing and story will be stronger in the sequels but im not too confident
I love the admission that it's just for the technical aspects lmfao
This year of movies is so much better than last year, I hope at least
Even with mcu
This year has been incredible with movies ye
Genuinly looking forward to thor 4 and black panther 2 tbh
Im just waiting for Everything Everywhere All At Once at this point
Fuckers didn't release it here
😡
Then theres everything else, top gun maverick is supposedly amazing, and so is everythin everywhere
Had RRR instead tho, that shit was dope
Then we got Scorseses new movie with Leo and Bob, Avatar 2, Parks new movie, and def a few more I cant remember right now
I have pretty much lost interest in Marvel but I'm glad I got to see a Raimi movie again
You saw it? Dr strange MoM?
That’s crazy
Im not going out of way to see it, but if someone invites me ill go
Technically it was brilliant but plotting wise it was eh
Yeah I want to watch Everything Everywhere asap
Same
So much better than MoM
Oh that makes me so happy to hear Nami swan
Discussing an Indian film with foreigners
I can’t even find it online
Oh cool can’t wait to see it
Yeah, on Netflix
Oh perfect lol
Runway 34 and Parde Mein Rehno Do are the foreign films playing at my theater now
The wicked + the divine #1 || just read the first chapter, made me lol how luci was framed at court ||
TGH Ch 34 ||Such a sad scene. Thom really getting it rough||
Basically James Cameron was a very famous director in the 1990s, he made a lot of movies including the titanic if you've seen that
It's also a joke in the industry that James Cameron has a thing for water
So this movie is even more of a meme because of that
He's not someone I care for much
I really like Titanic but it makes me cry
When u finally get to watch let me know your thoughts
think im gonna see it wednesday
I wanna see it again
This years movies have been making me wanna see them twice in theatres which is great
is that a bad thing?
james cameron was ok early in his career
action movie are not really my thing tho
It's not a bad thing heh
It’s the saddest movie I’ve ever seen
Indeed!

Wonder Woman 1984 is the worst superhero movie ever made. In this video essay, I explain why...

My Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/H...
i'm not sure what's the saddest movie i've seen
ty bubs
grave of the fireflies was pretty sad
oh wow, 1 hr 20, seems like fun
From recent memory id say a star is born
it has some different narratives of writing to explore, so that is why
Was depressed for a few days after that
charlie chaplin has some emotional movies
like what?
ya that movie was pretty depressing
I haven't sad cried to a movie in so long.. I happy cried to Coda and end of King Richard
he is one of 3 men to go to the bottom of the mariana trench
he really loves water
I actually had no idea this was a thing but it is not surprising lol. Also who were the other two?
first two people went together as an actual science thing, then james cameron went for fun
he went all by himself and spent 3 hours down there fucking around
very cool stuff to do when you're mostly known as the guy who made terminator 2
In case you missed STV news earlier .. #NcutiGatwa #DoctorWho

This is so wholesome 😭
I think its just the first two that's getting removed
wait actually idk
you gotta wonder what life exists down there
Must be so cool
Oh nvm, found an infographic:

god imagine if he somehow filmed down there for a movie
if someone ever does that it will be him
even though i think it would be nearly impossible since theres no light
did u watch the trailer?
ive felt like this for a while but im usually heavily unimpressed with the whole avatar series/hype
like i respect james cameron, dudes awesome
but avatar is a bore and even the trailer before dr strange did nothing to hype me
Nah Will, I'm sure James Cameron will find a way before he dies
Respect to his film making abilities and technical finnesse
As a person... Meh
dude rlly loves the water
the trailer didnt show jack shit why would it interest anyone honestly
it was just nice looking cg
im assuming since you're specifically premiering it before one of the most hyped movies of the year, its meant to gather some hype
I really have 0 interest in avatar, i havent seen it since it came out and i was like 8 ,but im excited for the sequel only because theres this group of people i saw on "How to with John wilson" who all loved avatar and it helped them in their personal life so i hope they get the sequel they always wanted
thats cool, im all for mediums that help people with like that
as a movie that came out when i was a kid
and as an adult now
i have struggled to find its allure
titanic made sense
That's me with jurrasic park
avatar was just one of the first good looking CG movies
isnt there someone you're forgetting to bless
was always interested in the sea. Lot of weird creatures there. anglerfish, goblin shark, viperfish, and gulper eel. vampire squid too
wonder what Cameron does with it.
just finished Moon Knight
had a question though
Moon Knight
|| Does Marc have 2 other personalities with one being Steven and the other being Jake or no?||
Yes
yea
Ye
Moon Knight
||ok so you are telling me that there are 3 personalities||
Yes
yea
damn
does that mean 3 different suit transformations then?
Moon Knight
|| ig it explains why Marc and Steven blackout then... it must mean that Jake takes over and kills all the people.||
Yeah basically
yea
oh hey other people who just finished Moon Knight
||oh holy shit I didn't even think about that it actually happened as well... wut...||
I did just sit staring for a minute after I finished b/c of that...
yea willem dafoe
his name is jesus christ how did you forget he';s the mainc haracter
who
criminal minds s1e1 ||the boredom is truly getting to me||
i can finally have an opinion on The northman
i can finally have an opinion on the bad guys
I cant
why are filmmakers named paul always better than everyone else
criminal minds s1e1 ||yoda quote, amazing||
guy who likes pta and paul schrader too much
and that third guy with a V in his last name
altough idk if you like robocop
You should watch Almost famous btw
saw it a fwe days ago and its great
YMS is a hack
im the guy
Almost Famous, yeah. Cameron Crowe
i think i will watch raging bull next

Holy shit
Girlboss 🤩
no way ur starting this series
Mostly been keeping this in DMs with Balkan but s1 and s2 of the wire have been great so far. S3 gonna have to wait a bit, unfortunately.
Check it out people 
constellation is such a banger
Already watched all the seasons. It’s great.
Finished Shang-chi
Thought it was really good
I think What If is next but what I'm assuming is that it's optional but imma watch it anyways
nice! hope you like What If
it is optional but it def adds color to what comes after
I see
Shang-chi and the ten rings ||I'm curious about what that "beacon" talk was about but I'm gonna assume it's touched on in later installments||
Shang Chi || yeah all theoretical by end of Shang Chi... nothing concrete ||
Dope, should be ready in 30m
Guess I'll watch an ep or 2 of SJ s5 while I'm at it
Scratch that, it randomly keeps bumping it up to days
SJ s5 intro always gives me chills
Nvm it keeps freezing cause my laptop is a potato 🧍
I'll wait for What If ig
There's plenty
The great hunt (wot book 2) ch 40 ||saw liandrin's stuff coming a mile away obviously, since we already knew she was a Darkfriend from the stuff that happened at the start of the book. Honestly kinda pissed at how easily Nynaeve of all people got duped, and Egwene as well. Really crappy. Egwene is enslaved damn. Honestly kinda wish it was Nynaeve and not her, that bitch needs to learn a thing or two about humility. Find the fact that Nynaeve's power depends on her anger, because it's unique among the other power wielders who all seem to need to use some version of Rand's void trick to channel. Heard Galldrian died too, i hope it was Thom who did it and that he made the bastard suffer. I wonder who did the barthans or whatever that other guy's name was, i think it might be Thom?||
Book 2 a lot better than book 1 for sure.
Apparently the first 3 books are straight standard adventure
After that it becomes a socio-political thriller set in a fantasy world
Show makes it that fom the start 
What if time
What If ep1 / The Iron Giant ||in this art style, Bucky reminds me of the scrap yard guy from The Iron Giant||
Done with ep 1
anyone know the best and cheapest site to buy the mistborn trilogy from?
The boxset on amazon
What if ep2 ||didn't even realize chadwick died-
||
Pulp Fiction||My god this scene cant stop making me laugh so hard
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6YBKdmOlM8&t=125s||
I wonder what would happen if Brett said he DID look like a bitch. I decided to edit together the famous apartment scene in Pulp Fiction into 1 whole sequence to see how it would play out without a whole movie between it. It took very little time but I thought it would be interesting, one day I would like to edit the film together in order for m...
Episode 4 what if ||it hit really hard, I loved the monster visuals||
What If ep 4 ||would have loved to see a full film of it tbh||
just watched reservoir dogs.
it's good on the rating but somehow it feels a bit boring for me, perhaps because of slow-paced story ||or the less setting that shown, mostly garage scene||
Book 2 WoT done @copper phoenix @rich meadow
What If ep5 ||interesting to see a zombie verse, and if I recall correctly there supposed to be a full series of "Marvel Zombies" sometime in the future||
The Great Hunt (WoK Book 2) ||A lot better read than book 1. Story was fairly predictable, i think ingtar being Darkfriend was the only thing i didn't see coming a mile off (i thought he was being seduced by the horn kinda like the effect the one ring had in LoTR). And Dena too

I don't like the Aes Sedai after this book. They just seem basic all around arseholes that justify everything because wheel weave will muh muh and the only reason they are any good for me is that the other side is even worse.
Still don't like most of the characters, they just feel a little too one dimensional to me? Like Nynaeve is basically just a bunch of anger and hatred towards aes Sedai, Rand is just i don't wanna do this but i have to because I am not an asshole, mat is whatever he is, Perrin didn't get much spotlight so idk. I hope they start improving soon.
World, lore, magic is as top notch as always and still carrying the series. The prose is much better and flows really smooth so that's another thing I liked with book 2. ||
Book 3 will be started in a few hours
I love the art in What If tbh
The animation can be kinda goofy but the background visuals are really great
absolutely am
What If e7 ||what the- what kinda ending is that
Vision in like an Ultron Suit with all the infinity stones??||
lol
hawke- 
Hawkeye is pretty meh
Spider-Man NWH, MK and Dr. Strange 2
Have you watched Shang-Chi?
eterna- 
Yeah blob
glad you like shang chi, star
Great honestly
Only good Phase 4 movie along with NWH
Very disappointing film
I've decided doctor strange 2 is my favourite phase 4 film
the soundtrack again was mediocre
Loki end ||I feel when you throw a multiverse into a story that's already been set in 1 universe for so long and you start telling stuff about multiple different universes the story gets kinda convoluted||
mcu has already been going downhill since before phase 4
Doctor Strange 2
if i said "phase 3 was peak" i'd know it because i did not say it
phase 3 is peak of the mcu
phase 3 > phase 2 = 4 > phase 1
was it the second one
you know the context there right star?



why i said that was that before endgame we had captain marvel
and after endgame there was far from home
both snoozefests
infinity war >

far from home snoozefest?
What I said still stands
also I changed my mind phase 4 > phase 2
damn cunk
Phase 2 was a mixed bag tbh
I'm struggling to not fall asleep right now thinking about some of these movies
yeah and thats all it had
yeah
Anywho, brb
see ya
phase 4 had 2
damn i remember sending meme pic about marvel here and got deleted right after
3 
so phase 4 has been snoozeworthy too 
no idea how it was deleted
actually ur right maybe I'm overhyping shang chi
true
Phase 4 had antman2, infinity war, cpt marvel and?
Lmao
those were all phase 3
Ah damn
this is what phase 4 has rn
Shang chi and Dr strange are goos
man what a snooze
The others are meh
goos
Good
yea kinda a downhill for movies but series gets better
series were ass too
I literally fall asleep looking at the movies from phase 1 and 2
havent seen 3 of them
Spiderman had a lot of nostalgia but I hated the plot premise
well, i rather watch moon knight over inhumans
actually contrary to my expectations, no way home actually was from a structure and plot standpoint at least competent
Nwh ||"make everyone forget about mysterio", no movie at all||
i went in to see nwh in order to experience the nostalgia for the most part
i think i really liked the nostalgia part for majority of why i appealed to me
Yes, nostalgia played a huge part for me
nwh ||yeah but that makes sense with how stupid peter is and he really does pay the consequences for that||
Nwh ||yes, but it was a genius neuro surgeon that cast the spell
||
nwh ||strange tried hard, peter is at fault there||
Nwh ||that's true, but still, I can't but dislike this premise
||
nwh ||it was not a trivial spell||
nwh ||that is what makes it a good premise tho, peter consistently makes bad decisions and pays for it throughout||
Nwh ||Yea, I mean Dr strange could've just said that making everyone forget about mysterio would've been the best choice||
nwh ||remember this, strange was on the ropes as well, he was not in control and it is only on request of peter that he could do the spell, if peter decided otherwise that wouldve been a problem||
Sorry would have or would have not?
Yea, I really enjoyed it as well
all characters making consistently bad decisions and paying for it >
that is one of the types of stories i like
yes
yes
MCU unpopular opinion || are people loving phase 4 just because there are many heroes in one movie so that even if plot fails everyone enjoys it??||
||Except shang chi of course||
My flatmate always says that eternals is better than shang chi
I'm always like wtf
And that's why I don't trust his reccomendations
lmao
thats why its unpopular because it makes no sense
That’s like 2 of the Phase 4 movies

Phase 4 is failing because no one cares about these characters
I like phase 4 because the movies I have seen from it are good, I have not seen eternals or black widow
And the movies are boring
I like nwh, doctor strange 2 and shang chi more than anything from phase 1
but you're cunk
which is why my opinions are better
Phase 4 has too many shows imo
I play it ironically I SWEAR
A lot of them are boring too
I still haven't seen black widow, inhumans (?) and one other show iirc
Inhumans isn’t in Phase 4
Or maybe I'm thinking Bout star wars
It isn’t in any Phase
It's not marvel?
Yea, I mean out of anything marvel related
I don’t think the Ms Marvel show is going to be good
It doesn’t seem interesting at all
What If ep8 ||
||
Finished it?
1 more
Falcon and the Winter Soldier has neat world building but not much else outside the cast
Haven't seen Hawkeye so I can't say
Give me xmen house of x please marvel
Yeah
Harsh if they do it correctly they can tie everything together
Big if
But
Imagine
Of they do something dumb like

apparently so
I love Wolverine
Oh I finished What If btw
Logan ||that's an alternate universe, from what I've read||
did u watch Dr strange yet star
Nah just finished What If
I see
Now it's eternal- 
They could always put in x-23 in as wolverine
Despise that movie
As she takes up the mantle alot in the comics
Storm movie when
House of x could tie in with black panther
didn’t jean get a movie
Cause you know they were married
True true true
Phoenix saga?
There'd be a lot of explaining to do
Yes
That is that last thing I want
aka sansa stark
They have done Phoenix twice already
Star read house of x through swords of x
And it would explain where everyone would be
And how they could tie it in
I plan to read a lot when I catch up to MCU
Well since xmen aren't in mcu
This is the story I want that would explain everything to where they were
Can superman keep up with wally west or sees him in slow mo?
Yeah ik I'm just putting my priorities in something to have a conversation
Gotcha
I would assume no, Speed Force is something that even Superman can't normally witness from my memory
Both are fast but wally is slower than Barry so it is arguable that they could go the same speed and if they are then it would seem like they wouldn't be moving
He can't witness it but he would still see them moving
If they move the same speed it would just look like they are still
I can't even remember how many there are
Since some of em fuck with time travel and interdimensional travel

I would assume like 6-7 as a main Flash cast but an infinite amount
I know the old dude, Barry, Wally, Bart
flashes? jay garrick, barry allen, wally west, bart allen
There is a girl
these 4 are enough
True those are the 4 I know harsh
It's generally accepted that there have been four Flashes in the DC Universe, but throughout the characters history, there have been 12 people who have held the title of "The Flash" in some form or another.
That is from a story

Black flash is different from zombie flash
Zombie flash is probably darkest night flash
Carries em to the speed force
Gets complicated
reverse flash the greatest hater in literature
Reverse Flash is cool, he fucks with time which gets complicated
wally
Barry
wally is the fastest
Gary
Harsh would know
wally
The one I just made up
I just guessed

gary is a flash?
It has been confirmed multiple times that Wally West is the fastest Flash.
in the comic The Flash (2016) #49 ||Wally himself outruns both Superman and Barry Allen.||
Don’t trip bro
confirmed by wikipedia
Yea wally different
wally did some insane shit, my GOAT
That dude is wack
one of the best characters in comics
Give us a better Barry
its not our earth barry or ?
No I mean Ezra miller
He’s just in most mediums
And likable
But I assume people who read a lot of comics have their reason for wally
wally did shit barry can only dream of
facts💀

1985’s Crisis on Infinite Earths #8
Y’all big sonic fans?
No not really
But sonic is funny
stay down
Crisis on Infinite Earths #8 ||
||
Aight but teleportation is faster and my boy manifold can do that
Coie ||shoulda stayed dead
||

I will continue to shill manifold as the best xmen forever
He can talk to speed
godspeed?
Manifold
sigh, havent read any flash comic, u got recs in mind?
@modern lichen
star, so they are in order or new 52 can goes first?
house of x, power of x etc etc x-men thing going on right now but its such an investment
The run ended last fall like the overarching story
you can just read house of x/power of x
Naw I wanna read all the funny little tie-ins and stuff
Read swords at least
idk i probably will when i get tired of manga
hickman era xmen reading thread || https://twitter.com/retro_1999/status/1523768916837027841 ||
follow this
Goated saga
i had a good reading order to follow
cause i was gonna read it awhile ago
and just never did
i cannot find it though, so ill use this reading order; thank you🙏

Watched Dr strange MoM yesterday btw || it was definitely a well directed movie and I enjoyed how experimental it was. I don't really have any complaints besides the fact that they wouldn't even let mr fantastic fight for five seconds. Overall a fine movie and the mcu needs to stop teasing alternate universe stuff and only half-assing it. ||
Was it good
|| the mcu is finally adding diverse styles to their movies again though so I would rather this movie pretty high compared to a lot of earlier films ||
I enjoyed it but I think it's something you have to see for yourself probably
Yeah that’s what I imagine
I’m not big on marvel at all
Still haven’t watched the new spiderman
The main complaints can be taken out of the movie entirely and be enjoyed, I'll just say that
Yeah I'm the same but I still watch them because I need an excuse to talk with my friends about something lol
there are a multiple problems inherent to the movie as well imo
but
the movie is so fun to watch
My friend was nit picking the hell out of the movie when we got back
Definitely not a movie you think about lol
i think the wider problems come with the writing and how janky it all comes together
but its so deftly presented
like, raimi does an excellent job at making the movie visually arresting
if the mcu's weight wasnt much of thing, this movie would've worked extremely well
If there's gonna be more mcu into infinity I'm at least glad the average movie is more creative now
Couldn't stand the regular mcu movie style before
Yeah nothing is set in stone
The first big thing they did was hiring james gunn and it still didn't fix the bigger problems imo so
We shall see

such a good piece of art
Potential GOTG3 spoiler || https://www.mandatory.com/wrestlezone/news/1294900-dave-bautista-says-goodbye-to-drax-guardians-of-the-galaxy ||

||No I don't want invisible man to goooo|| gotg 3

Doctor Strange 2||I got to say, that was one of the worst mcu movies of all time. Can't think of a single good thing about the movie. Absurd amount of plot holes and contrivances particularly when it came to how the multiverse worked, which does not bode well for the future of the mcu; sound design was really bad which is unlike the mcu, one part legit made my ears hurt and there were like 4 lines I just didn't hear because of poor sound design; visuals/effects were alright, but not great, except for the first scene, which was not convincing, didn't look like other strange or america were in that environment at all, which really pulled me out of the movie; cinemtography was also weird at times, like the one scene where they are looking at the door that closed behind wanda, and we just get 30 seconds of zooming in and out of our characters faces, like we got all three close ups, then the door, then back to strange, just entirely unnecessary; also, why does strange take so long to grab the damn mcguffin book, which ended up being unneeded anyway; dialogue was pretty bad at times too, like dude the wedding dialogue at the beginning had me cringing so hard; the score was forgettable and often times didn't complement what was happening well.||
||Really disappointing movie tbh. And no, I'm not a hater, I've watched like every mcu movie, this one just sucked.||
is this for dr strang 2?
Dr strange 2 || Havent seen it but them not being on the same location is totally possible, marvel has been doing that for a while to prevent leaks and because its easier than scheduling people to get together ||
huh?
GOTG3 || hopefully he actually does something in this film. Probably one of the most useless characters in the mcu. His whole character was “kill Ronan and kill thanos” and after failing miserably at both he’s sort of just comic relief. 😔 ||
Lmao people really disliked it that much?
Jeez
Pretty fair assessment tbh
Was not as good of a movie as they hyped it up to be
Doctor Strange 2 ||I did like the sound design during Black Bolt’s attack where it actually made your ears hurt. While it is kind of an ass move to play, it does show how powerful he is||
Doctor Strange 2 ||All the camera zooms were also really weird||
MCU phase 4 ||it seems like the multiverse is doing less favors for the mcu and is burdening more tbh||
Well Sam raimis the director
MCU Phase 4 ||I’m excited about it but the execution so far has not been ideal||
I could care less who the director was. I don’t really get the whole “But Sam Raimi directed it” idea
dr strange 2 ||the zoom ins were fuckin great||
The idea is its a pretty Sam raimis movie, if you like Sam raimi you will probably like this movie
What were some of your biggest issues blob?
It was just boring
Yeah the zooms were good it's nice to see a marvel movie that does more with the camera than static shot after static shot
Not exciting at all
Disagree heavily
And the camera zooms annoyed me a lot
MCU phase 4 || quantumania, Loki s2 an secret wars is its best bet to nail multiverse ||
I can’t really understand how one would find it boring but it’s all preference I guess
Doctor strange 2 ||there were some slow parts around the middle between strange entering the 2nd dimension and before wanda invades tho||
raimi zooms are fuckin amazing
i mentioned this like 5 times here already, technically this movie might be the best
in the MCU
Yeah adds alot more personality and energy into scenes
raimi just infuses incredible fun through the visuals
Doctor Strange 2 ||They hyped it up so much how it would be an insane crossover between WandaVison, Loki, and all that, but it turned out to just be a boring 2h film of Wanda going around killing people and Strange trying to stop her
||
and the editing, tho the editing in this movie couldve been better
Who’s they
LMAO
Bruh
(Raises hand)
Doctor strange 2 ||I don't care that this movie doesn't tie into 4838 other marvel movies||
MoM ||It doesn’t have to connect to be good, it was just not fun to watch||
doctor strange 2 ||the problem came with the connection with wandavision and loki and the whole multiverse shit, i dont give a shit about those connections, just give me an entertaining film that is fun to watch||
Ds2 || I avoided anything regarding this movie so maybe I missed some promotion or stuff that was misleading. That mainly seems like a difference in expectations to me, I can understand that they didn’t really lean as hard into the multiverse as a lot of people expected and wanted, I kind of agree they’re still sort of dipping their toes in.||
MoM || bot enjoyment is just another word for MCU formula now lol ||
doctor strange 2 ||it is the burden of all the connections that destroyed it||
||Yeah, He's spoken about this before but he doesn't want to have this kind of role going further because of his age. Don't know how Gunn will handle it though, because at this point the death flag is nearly too high || GOTG3
it has led to a point now with the MCU where these connections are fun rather than the shit thats going on in the movie itself, so much so that a movie being visually arresting and interesting as a story in itself, the excitement comes from the connections
i hate that
the connections are not fun, please stop with that shit
doctor strange 2/wandavision ||one of the biggest problems with the movie is the clunky transition to wanda's motivations in this movie||
MCU / Doctor Strange 2 ||The multiverse and the magic in the universe are a whole other thing. What determines what stays the same between universes and what changes? Why does strange know that the other strange also had a younger sister that died the same way when they were young? We've seen how a bunch of different things change from universe to universe. There are like multiple lines in the movie about how basically anything is true in the infinite multiverse, but somehow this thing about his sister must be the same....
Also America's power teleporting her right to strange at the beginning is the biggest contrivance. Strange even says it at the end. He's like "even when you didn't know where to go at the beginning, you brought yourself to where you needed to, to end up here." Like come on dude, so she just got lucky and teleported herself right by the wedding Strange was going to?????
Also Strange will be either nerfed or buffed to hell from scene to scene. Like he uses some super OP spell and then just forgets. Or he uses some really terrible spell for a given situation, despite being super smart. Why doesn't he ever use the clone technique from infinity war? That was super strong. Or the ice attack from the first scene, that was super useful, why don't you use it again? Never explained.
Also this dark hold or whatever is like infinitely more powerful than all 6 infinity stones, and the sacntum knew about it. Why weren't they doing a better job to prevent anyone from getting their hands on it?
Considering the multiverse is at the center of stage 4, and they confused themselves with it so many times in this movie alone, I don't have very high hopes for the mcu going forward.||
Doctor strange 2 wandavision ||I didn't see wandavision so I'm immune to this
||

MCU / Docter Strange 2 ||Yes. Also, among other problems with her motivations, and how Strange was totally not going to do anything about wanda enslaving and torturing a whole town, isn't the easy solution just to teleport her to a universe where other wanda died and her kids are motherless? Like isn't that a pretty easy solution for her?||
MoM ||You could probably never watch WandaVision and still enjoy the film||
@hard laurel you still need to put the name outside of the tag
wait a sec, let me formulate a proper response to that
I wouldn’t recommend it though
MoM || I mean I was always filtering wanda in the movie through the lens of her being taken over by the darkhold but I do think it was more jarring than it could've been ||
MoM ||She was being taken over, but they never elaborated on that so it just seems jarring when you look at the transition from WandaVision to MoM||
DS2 || that’s not what wanda wanted though. She wanted to control Chavez’s power for herself so she could move between multiverses in case anything happened. It was explained in the movie, she wanted to remove any and all chance of losing her family again, ie if her kids get sick, she’d go to a new one, a tragic accident occurs, she’d find a new one. She wasn’t willing to compromise like that ||
MoM || the dark hold was the transition for Wanda. But this being a Dr strange movie and having two plot devices like the Wanda and the dark hold and America Chavez driving the movie. It’s a bit of a disappointment of what you’d expect from Dr strange 2 back in like phase 3 ||
mcu phase 4 (dr strange 2/wandavision) ||the connections and interconnected nature of the shows tying to this movie is the biggest problem with the movie, the average moviegoer is confused by wanda's evil turn and now have to go back and watch the fuckin show but then its a double edged sword of shittiness, the show is clunkily incorporated with wanda's character arc or the audience has to have to watch the show before watching the movie to properly know what the motivations are for wanda in the movie. The problem with the movie came with these connections and how they didnt let the movie breath because they made it difficult for the movie to properly incorporate||
Hmm
Pretty much
MoM || I honestly don’t even like that Wv was incorporated at all… atleast to the degree it was ||
The shows don’t do a good job with their rushed nature and limited episodes then expect the movies to elaborate more when there’s barely anything to work with
MoM/wandavision || honestly I think they did a good job building up wandas love for her kids, I obviously can't say for sure because I saw wandavision but I don't think I'd miss much of the idea there if I hadn't ||
DS2 ||Sure at the beginning, but at the end, she repents despite being controlled by the dark hold? and then gives up because her kids were scared of her breaking in their all scary like. But she still could've been teleported to another dimension without a wanda, so why is that when she gives up? Is it because she does have a heart, it certainly didn't seem like she had any semblance of emotion during the other parts of the movie... That just leads into how poorly explained the darkhold is. How much of these actions are wanda, and how much of them are wanda being controlled.||
MoM\wandavision ||I have not seen wandavision and I understood wandas motives enough||
doctor strange 2 ||in conclusion, raimi did all he could while buckling under the weight of the MCU to make a movie that is uniquely his own while trying to tie this all in, technically multiverse of madness is more engaging and fun on a moment by moment basis through the straight strength of the filmmaking, the problems lay with the writing and the over-reliance on exposition||
MoM || without wandavision though how could you even understand where the idea of these kids come from. You’d have to rely on her dreams in mom and that doesn’t establish the relationship she actually had with them ||
|| that's just every magical thing that takes hold of somebody in any story lol ||
MoM || > it certainly didn’t seem like she had any semblance of emotion during the other parts of the movie
This couldn’t be further from the truth||
Ds2 ||this is all just common tropes tho||
MOM || what do you mean? she slaughters like a thousand people without a second thought. She seems entirely corrupted||
|| well let's be fair, wanda in her right mind isn't the best person either with trauma lol ||
DS2 || Sure it's a common thing, but it doesn't make it any less bad that it's also present in this movie||
Mom / Wv || again this has to tie into Wanda vision. Cause the nature of the dark hold only really gets explained there ||
Ds2 ||person who is corrupted by evil object breaks through corruption after seeing the monster they've become!?!?||
It's almost like a movie or skemtnk g
skemtnk g
|| I'd understand if this was like black widow or somebody but wanda is a very ambiguously-aligned character||
Sorry my fingers are broken
Funk you need to put the name outside of tags
We've been talking about the same thing for 5 minutes
I just thought people would pick up
You still need to put it outside of tags
MoM || every thing she did is extremely emotionally driven, shes totally twisted by the darkhold to the point where her desire to have her kids overrides any other moral obstructions, and it’s those same kids that are able to get through to her at the end of the film||
My b
Wandavision/DS2 /MCU || my main gripes with this film are the transition from Wandavision, she kind of got closure at the end of that and ended up coming to terms with her grief, then the dark hold happened and she went totally off the rails offscreen, the way America Chavez was written. She was runningggg and then she used her power to run some more, and then she controlled it and blam. Her character just wasn’t allowed to do much ||
Mom ||wow america you did it you made wanda see reason and stop being evil and all it took was traumatising a small family for life||

MoM || I can understand every perspective here, but the only thing I truly dislike is the half-assing on alternate universe stuff. I can understand literally everything except that ||
MoM || also where tf is vision? The kids are at the core of her motivation but vision isn’t even mentioned except in passing? Not Is he present in any alternate universe? ||
MoM ||Yeah the execution so far has not been good at all||
Mom ||didn't really mind that we only went to like 2 other universes the film wasn't really focused on that stuff||
Yeah
MoM ||It’s probably because she has accepted Vision’s death and doesn’t see it necessary to find him again||
Mom || I hate that it wasn’t ||
I don't
MoM || mutiverse of madness should be…. Idk a multiverse of madness ||
MoM || the problem is if you get into different universes it stops becoming dr strange and instead turns into spiderverse or what if ||
Mom ||I haven't seen wanda so I have no reference for how will her turn to the dark side was handled or whatever but I love how she was in this movie||
MoM ||The term “Multiverse of Madness” should have been reserved for a bigger crossover film like Endgame was||
MoM || that's why this whole multiverse thing is destined to fail inherently anyway imo ||
MoM ||she was like a monster from a horror movie||
MoM || she got the same closure with the kids in wandavision though ||
MoM || you’ll appreciate it more after watching wandavision cause it’ll tie in so many gaps… especially if you liked this story ||
MoM ||True but the Darkhold is tempting her with the possibility of getting her kids back. That’s why she turns into a villian||
MoM/ wandavision|| If the path goes Dr strange wandavision Dr strange 2 I think that's a pretty solid watch tbf ||
MoM || another part of it has to do with her dreams and seeing there was a universe where she was with them and happy. She probably doesn’t get those with Vision ||
MoM || yea but the question is why she loves him just as much as her kids. It’s not like the desire to be with her family is fabricated by the dark hole. And vision has got to be present in the family in some of those universes ||
Ds2 ||there was a multiverse and wanda was mad the title fits perfectly
||

I feel like I probably like this movie as much as the first one though, if that's not controversial
I like it more
MoM ||Well, sure, that's kind of how they described it. But then Dr. Stange must have his little sister die in the same way when they are young? As I said at length in this post, the multiverse in the movie is nonsensical and contradictory...
MoM || it wasn’t fabricated by the dark hold but it was surely amplified. I mean there is a possibility a universe was out that where she could “have it all”.. but it seems she was very focused on 838. But yeah idk why exclude vision in this hunt to have her family ||
MoM ||Wanda is forcing Viz to find the milk and locking the door behind him||
MoM || ultimately a nonsensical movie but that never stopped dc fans with aquaman so yk I can deal with it lmao ||
Time to fire up that new BCS
MoM / Loki || his sister dying could’ve been a nexus event. But sure it’s not necessarily guaranteed to be the same, but both those people were Stephen Strange / Doctor Strange. Their paths diverged but the changes we know about came after he became sorcerer supreme, when he became involved with the darkhold and stuff. It stands to reason that most of the major events in his life would be similar at least, or else he wouldn’t be the same person at all. But those two WERE very similar ||
im still 2 weeks behind 😭
Yeah it was amazing
Episode 5
sj?
You watch samurai Jack?
very cultured
I love S5 especially
please don't watch Eternals
It is worth skipping
I can just make a note saying not to watch it ever again if I heavily dislike it
right i was tryna think what sj was since you been on a marvel grind
is s5 the newest one or
S5 has been out for a while
Its darker than the other seasons though
The first being like any other eps
||i thought eternals would be good i didn't hate it but a lot of parts fell flat and it all fell apart when they revealed they weren't even actual things|| eternals
new compared to like 20 years ago is what i meant
sounds forever ago
Looks fucking amazing
