[burnt shale]

It’s sooooooo good

[inland jetty]

||I do at least appreciate the fact they were straightforward about the fact people are dying, soldiers and civilians, its not just being mean||

b1e10 ||Also always a fan of Sokka getting to be cool as a non-Bender||

||I like to think Katara thinks Sokka's dead here||

||They even used the D word!||

Whelp, halfway through season 1. I understand the next episode is one I'm supposed to watch, like, a million times, for the true atla experience?

[frank quail]

googles the episode list

[stoic falcon]

Is it the great divide?

[frank quail]

yes

[dusk hound]

Great Divide is one of the best of book 1

[keen flax]

Classic Great Divide

[dusk hound]

But nothing holds a candle to Blue Spirit IMO

[oak ivy]

You will get jumped in some cities for saying this

[dusk hound]

Fortune Teller is my least favorite of book 1 tbh

We’re just setting her up for failure

[buoyant scroll]

It's the first episode I ever saw xD

[inland jetty]

I don't remember that one at all but I'm excited to form an opinion

[dusk hound]

“But… But… adjust for inflation!!!”

[burnt shale]

best book one episode is 12 imo

[keen flax]

I really like 13 🥰

And the finale

[minor ledge]

god theres a joke i really wanna make here

[minor ledge]

Im calling it right now, RDJ doom is gonna be one of the worst adaptations of a comic book villain that were gonna get

[oak ivy]

Itll be good just nothing like doom

Which i dont even know any good doom stories

He is really just an aura farmer

[minor ledge]

i doubt itll even be good

itll be an incredibly directioneless and slop doom

[wet quest]

I'm going with the fan theory that it's some kind of misdirection having him show up as Doom

Otherwise, I have faith in the MCU's ability to make a good story, they've had way more hits than misses

[topaz oyster]

That's less true than it used to be and boy when someone from Marvel comes out and talks about why their flops flopped they sound insane sometimes

[buoyant scroll]

My personal operating assumption is it'll be a like, Doom stole his world's Tony's body thing based on some teases.

[wet quest]

I do have a bit of selection bias because if I'm not sold on a movie I wait until word of mouth and go see it based on that. Thunderbolts* and Fantastic Four I guess were the first ones in a while I knew I wanted to see from the trailers alone

[topaz oyster]

I'll give Doom this: he's a oneliner specialist

[topaz oyster]

Doom also strays into an archetype I specifically dislike which is the intelligence-so-intense-it-basically-becomes-clairvoyance

[lone canyon]

Fr I’ve grown to hate Sherlock type characters

(Not elementary Sherlock though, he’s nice)

I just hate it when I feel like the author is jacking off the character, it makes me actively annoyed

[wet quest]

Did someone mention the God Emperor of Dune?

[topaz oyster]

The most egregious example I can think of is Death Note where people are apparently so intelligent they begin arguing with each other from across time and space

[molten jetty]

And it’s peak

[keen flax]

Like that episode in regular show ||when mordecai and rigby became so smart they couldnt understand "stupid" people anymore 😭||

[dusk hound]

Still one of the best Death Note videos I’ve seen https://youtu.be/9hEHOaZYEeE?si=J91G9weVnLmZ6JDL

[minor ledge]

God you just reminded me of BBC sherlock

Ending so bad it convicned the fans there was asecret ending

[forest wigeon]

tbf Death Note is adapted from a manga, so the internal monologues probably aren't supposed to be as long in-universe

[molten jetty]

The internal monologues are so good

It’s so hysterical and perfect for the story

[heavy anchor]

Hm, I can't help but think of Gargoyles

S tier super intelligent villain

[tawdry snow]

TMA 160: ||This had been bugging me for this relisten. How was Jon marked by the Hunt? The others all have a clear incident, but the Hunt? When did Jon develop a deep fear of the Hunt?||

[distant birch]

TMA 160 ||i think it was when daisy attacked/tried to kill him in... episode 91 iirc?||

[stark crag]

TMA ||it's when Daisy gets him right after Mike, yeah||

||and probably any early interaction with Daisy didn't help||

[wet quest]

I love the episode where his ||secret sister is so smart that the only way she knows how to get anyone to give her attention is to kill a bunch of people. Truly a relatable struggle.

In honor of the IWTV s3 preview

[dawn kayak]

Triumph and Torment

that's like the one good doom story

[oak ivy]

That is one more than expected

I feel like to be that level of character you have to do something

I cant think of any of Doom’s plots

Compare with the Joker or Green Goblin

[dawn kayak]

doom has some stuff but eh it's kinda all boring

triumph and torment is good tho

[sacred slate]

Starting a run through No Reservations again and I miss this man being in the world.

[lone canyon]

They really saved on the animation budget

[burnt shale]

I mean the internal monologue is more a structure than a sign of intelligence like a spotlight in a play. The actual logic and deduction in death note is actually pretty down to earth

[inland jetty]

atla b1e11 ||I am not even five minutes into this episode and I already just wanna skip it. I don't remember this episode coming up constantly like I hear it did... but I definitely remember it the most clearly of anything else I've seen||

[burnt shale]

It’s a fully contained episode so they replayed it alot

[azure fern]

It's a very divise episode

[hushed moss]

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=BjkIOU5PhyQ

[inland jetty]

I did, in fact, skip it

Episode 12 was pretty good though. And I know episode 13 by name 👀

[forest wigeon]

now featuring an even more misguided allegory for social issues

[wet quest]

That one's one of my favorites because of the way it ended.
||Aang just straight up lying to two groups of people as a means to end their conflict and showing no remorse for it. It tripped something in my kid brain when I first watched it and he admitted that he fully made up his little story about the origin of the feud.||

[inland jetty]

||I remembered it too well and too specifically, beginning to end||

[forest wigeon]

I'm pretty sure that's why a lot of people don't like it

[inland jetty]

atla b1e11 ||I know I don't like it because its just a very simple episode with a very simple moral that gets signposted in the first five minutes; "learn to get along and meet in the middle or you'll make things worse for everyone". I wanna say I liked it as a kid, but I don't think it'll hold up for me as an adult||

[inland jetty]

atla b1e14 ||I was on board for this episode but I'll admit I'm maybe not terribly excited for an Aang/Katara/Random new girl love triangle where Sokka suggests Aang be meaner and may implicitly be unaware he's referring to Katara when he's talking about who he's interested in and not the new girl||

[azure fern]

b1e14 || This episode I think is in the running along with 11 for least enjoyable B1 episode (or all books episodes) in general. For me it has more individual funny/cool individual scenes than 11 and has a bit more in terms of world building that it edges out ahead of 11 in many ways ||

Great the era of AI slop comes to TV

These companies think we’re dumb

Genuinely insulting

[small quarry]

Grok is this real

[cold sequoia]

chatgpt, I want you to generate an episode of the Mistborn show but give Vin huge honkers

[ivory night]

I am a big fan of gen AI! <insert racism here>

[ivory night]

Vin woke up under the stair of her uncle’s house. She had big honkers

[cold sequoia]

also the show needs to have a happy ending and all the antagonists need to have a big red circle identifying them at all times thanks

[naive mica]

Grok, give me an episode of Mistborn that features Kelsier doing lines of coke off of Sazed’s big naturals.

[lucid haven]

[sacred slate]

Withers is ready to hand off this gauntlet

[ivory night]

[civic trellis]

in less AI-generated news, my dad is buying a ticket for Fantastic Four and just discovered that there are 4D showings in the local cinema

with shaky chairs, water and light effects

i am fascinated by the idea that a normal movie comes with a 4D version

(he's going to see it, of course, so he'll report to me how it worked out)

[cold sequoia]

Some would say that all movies have light effects

[civic trellis]

some would say that, yes

[dusk hound]

Film revisionism is crazy

Because what do you mean people think that TASM 2 is the best Spider-Man movie

[cold sequoia]

Its funny seeing younger zoomers watch the prequelsification of movie they remember being bad

[dusk hound]

I hate revisionism

Like TASM 2 and the prequels are objectively bad movies

[frank quail]

or are they just not as bad as it seemed at the time?

[cosmic dock]

Who shot first?

[frank quail]

-# I've never seen either of these movies

[dusk hound]

I mean I’ve rewatched the prequels and TASM 2

[topaz oyster]

I did think it was overhated

It isn't good but it wasn't unwatchable

[dusk hound]

MINUS Revenge of the Sith the prequels just suck honestly

[topaz oyster]

They've had twenty years of memes to buff down the hard edges

[dusk hound]

And even ROTS has its problems

[dusk hound]

Memes ≠ this movie is suddenly good

IMO

[topaz oyster]

Right but nearly everything that makes them bad (and there's a lot!) has an associated meme making it bad (endearing) instead of bad (offputting) for many people

[molten jetty]

I think in a lot of ways the cringe of the prequels has become charming in a humorous way and the cringe isn’t seen as a bad thing anymore

[dusk hound]

I think it’s a bad thing tbh

George Lucas cannot write dialogue for the life of him

[main dew]

That's the way I see it, the movies haven't got better, they've gotten more enjoyable through cultural context

[dusk hound]

Maybe I’m just a negative Nelly but idk

[topaz oyster]

I still think they're near-unwatchable cringefests

They have some hype moments

[verbal lintel]

Agreed, like story is rough in the prequels, but the Sound Effects and Fight Choreography blows out of the water everything in the sequel trilogy for example

[buoyant scroll]

Different audiences going in with different expectations, different preconceived notions.
In many ways with a clearer perspective.

[topaz oyster]

I've actually soured on the prequel fight choreography over the years

The CGI has aged poorly and the fight choreography strays from the very fast paced into the ridiculous more often than I was prepared to see as a kid

And being pretty directly contemporary to Lord of the Rings doesn't help its case either

LotR has broadly aged very well

[molten jetty]

Yeah. I think of them in a similar way to the more cringey aspects of the OT, part of the charm that makes it unique.

[forest wigeon]

There's a reason some people recommend watching them with the Japanese dub so you don't know what the characters are saying

[burnt shale]

I turn off sound excellent silent movies

[thin ridge]

I read this sentence like three times and it made less sense every time

[forest wigeon]

no, don't turn the sound off entirely

you still need the sound effect and soundtrack

also #1364954784737792102 is right there

[dusk hound]

Superman has Punkrocker and Batman has Something In The Way, what should Wonder Woman’s song be

I think it’s an obligation for them to each have a song

[burnt shale]

thats what the sound system and playlist

is for

[dusk hound]

And when I say this is a good Spider-Man movie?

[oak ivy]

You can be wrong

[dusk hound]

No

ITS A GOOD MOVIE OK

[keen flax]

I can't agree or disagree on account of me not caring about Spiderman at all, spiderverse beinh a massive exception of course

[forest wigeon]

A good MCU movie, sure. A good movie overall even. But idk about good Spider-Man movie

[topaz oyster]

I think the MCU Spider-man movies do a decent-to-good job balancing being Spider-man movies and being MCU movies

The compromise always breaks for the MCU of course, but I don't think they're bad Spider-man movies either

[dusk hound]

I think it’s a good Spider-Man movie

Feels like Lee and Ditko come to life

[lilac hull]

WHAT ARE THEY IMPLYING WITH THAT F4 AFTERCREDITS SCENE

[molten jetty]

F4 ||that the cartoon was very popular and Thing says “IT’S CLOBBERING TIME” a lot ||

[tight dove]

||their good friend victor came to visit :) /j||

[lilac hull]

Who’s that 😭

[tight dove]

F4 ||Victor Vonn Doom aka Doctor Doom||

||and by good friend i mean primary antagonist||

[lilac hull]

Ok thanks for clarifying, I know next to nothing about Marvel comics lmao.

[tight dove]

F4 || hes also the major antagonist of the upcoming Avengers Doomsday||

[lilac hull]

Figures.

Anyways, the movie was really good. Highly enjoyed it

||they fought the equivalent of a god and won. Actually, good lady Susan did most of the work there, died, and was resurrected by her child. Jesus complex much?/j||

[sage finch]

My theory for F4 was so much better than what we got

F4 ||I really thought they’d lose their earth and galactus would send them hurtling through the multiverse into Earth 616.

I imagined a shot of the four of them at Times Square on earth 616 looking around and we close in on Pedro’s face and he says “Oh no…” and it cuts to black.

I thought galactus would be the next big bad with RDJ’s Von Doom our uneasy ally in bringing him down. Cuz so long as galactus wins, Von Doom can’t.||

https://www.thewrap.com/kpop-demon-hunters-sequels-franchise-plans-netflix/

Among the projects being bandied about at Netflix are a stage musical, live-action remake, series and, of course, a pair of sequels to round out a full-on “KPop Demon Hunters” film trilogy, a third person familiar with the situation told TheWrap.
Additionally, much like “Frozen,” there is a short film being discussed to serve as “bridge content” between the mainline features, according to a fourth person familiar with the company’s plans.
...
If there is one snag to the streamer’s plans for aggressive “KPop Demon Hunters” expansion, it’s the fact that original directors Maggie Kang and Chris Appelhans have yet to sign onto additional projects.

[keen flax]

That last line is... mildly troubling to say the least 😅

Also live action remake?? Seriously 😒

[stoic falcon]

Yeah, this movie doesnt need a live action remake. The animation style is part of the charm for me.

And if the ordinal directors don't sign on, I doubt they'll be that good 😔. Might become a no movie in ba sing se situation

[keen flax]

Something something the higher ups think the same movie remade with real people will appeal to the masses

Which makes no sense because this movie ALREADY appeals to the masses!

The worst part is that HTTYD and lilo both prove this point with their box office, both of them made TONS of money (lilo and stitch in particular makes me wildly upset)

[wet quest]

I think they should do a live action kpop demon hunters and keep all of the uncanny facial expressions and stuff like abs and popcorn, but leave the rest of the effects out to dry

[stoic falcon]

I was personally fine with live actin httyd.

[wet quest]

Make Gwi-ma just like a campfire, not even with the people coloring. Remove the look of the demons, just make their eyes shimmer or something.

Blow the whole budget on making this live action

[frail mulch]

ok but if it were really netflix's frozen WHERE IS THE MERCH for me for my child

Update from my dad about the Fantastic Four showing in 4D: the 4D was not worth the price of admission

The water effects were barely there, the light effects were nonexistent, and chairs shook so much, it was difficult to focus on the movie itself

Or as he put it, "I had to grip the armrests or I'd fall out of the chair"

[sage finch]

How much was it

[quartz marlin]

https://youtu.be/lmQDWv7zJtQ?si=nb5pi2igN1Qhv2MT

[inland jetty]

Alright, back to atla

its 15 and 16 on the docket for today, and I think I know what's gonna happen in the latter, based on the ttile 👀

atla b1e15 ||Aang thoroughly failing to really get into any of the catch-yp Sokka and Katara are doing is neat||

||Also, thoroughly convinced that guy the shirshu rider was arm wrestling is Ryu from Street Fighter||

||Very quick turnaround here from "Aang doesn't want his friends to leave so he hides the map" to "Aang's guilty conscious leads him to come clean, and Katara and Sokka to part ways from him" to "Sokka and Katara realize they were too harsh and decide to get back with Aang"||

||Also, goddamn, even Appa gets a badass fight scene? does everyone in this series get to have one?||

atla b1e16 ||Oh hey, the Blue Spirit had a wanted poster!||

[inland jetty]

b1e16 ||eyy, that's a fun little bit of (fairly straightforward) foreshadowing! Fun to do that sometimes||

[azure fern]

Atla b1e15 || This ep suffers a lot from the quick pace of the episodic nature of the show. Gotta resolve the episode's plot within the episode for most episodes and this is one of the most glaring. Maybe the only one that is so glaring it does kind of take me out of immersion ||

[inland jetty]

||Also very fun, imo, to have Zhao so easily manipulated here, after also losing to Zuko. I've seen it mentioned that one the series' big themes is the difference between power and control, and how the latter always bests the former in the end, and its fun to see it come up so early in a sort of heirarchical way like that (foubly so since Zuko's Agni Kai with Zhao was clearly a moment of development for him; he didn't just win because because he was more in control of himself, being bacled into a corner like that made him learn to control himself better. See also: the Blue Spirit being so effective alongside Aang, because its Zuko enacting some self control to enact a counter-intuitiveplan like helping the Avatar escape Fire Nation custody, forcing him to reckon with his actual goals and beliefs)||

Anyways, might just go ahead and wrap up the rest of the season tonight. Only four episodes left, and I did a fair bit of moving chores, considering I also had to work...

[inland jetty]

atla b1e17 ||Oh this is another one I remember really liking||

||Yeah this is great so far||

||oh hey, yeah, the war machines||

INSIDE MY MINNNNNNNNNNNND!!!!

[inland jetty]

||Furthermore: Iroh singing was a lot of fun, short as it was||

||Furtherermore: Sokka flirting with Yui is immediately a lot of fun, which is extremely refreshing after the previous romance-based story beats (Actually, Sokka and the Kyoshi warrior were cute... Maybe I'm just not into Kataang)||

atla b1e18 ||Oh, its the pirates, I forgot they came back 👀||

[inland jetty]

atla b1e19 ||Zuko infiltrating the Northern Water Tribe is one of the most intense moments in the show so far, absolutely love it... I've also forgotten what his plan here was! Like, presumably he wants to capture the Avatar and exfiltrate on his own, or else repeat his Blue Spirit stunt and ensure he at least escapes safely, but... idk for sure!||

[frank quail]

||1. Capture the avatar
2. ???
3. Regain My Honour||

Wow discord, that is some bad formatting

[inland jetty]

||Oh I know his end goals, I'm wondering how he thinks infiltrating the Northern Water Tribe will further them, and whether he's defaulting to "exfiltrate with the Avatar" or "Ensure he escapes Zhao" as his plan A||

Finale time!

but first, popcorn

[inland jetty]

atla b1e20 ||Quality rope||

[inland jetty]

atla good

[azure fern]

it sure is

[inland jetty]

Anyways, onto season 2

atla season 1 all ||Really really interested in the Fire Lord already knowing that Iroh betrayed him||

[inland jetty]

atla all ||Wait... Secret Tunnel isn't from season 1? I wonder what other things I remember are gonna be from later than I realized||

[inland jetty]

Funny enough I just finished that episode

[midnight compass]

Whichever AtLA s2 episode that is

[velvet oriole]

I decided to go to the movies to watch Superman.

I snuck in a Coke Zero

[burnt shale]

Coward not even a full 3 course dinner

[cold sequoia]

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1_iZBmkQ0fg

[velvet oriole]

We gotta talk about how long they play commercials for. Why isn't the movie playing when it says that it should.

[azure fern]

So... this plan aged like fine milk, huh?

Unless instead of 2 episodes every week or so, you meant 20 episodes every week or so

[inland jetty]

Look, moving chores are going faster than expected

[hushed moss]

That is what I like about my local theater. There is only maybe 10 minutes of trailers. Which is the perfect amount in my opinion. I went to an AMC and the trailers took 30 minutes.

[azure fern]

Im not complaining, been 🍿 ing your reaction all along xD

Just thought it was funny that you are already 2 eps into S2

and I stopped to think...has it really already been several weeks since heat started Atla? Feels like it was just last week. Lo and behold, it was xD

[dusk hound]

I saw a vid of some guy who snuck in Wingstop to the theater

[turbid laurel]

The whole process of ||faking a pacemaker in order to get a doctor’s note in order to get by the metal detector in the stadium|| is the type of insanity that makes me love NFY

[dawn kayak]

oh wow the wizard of oz thing is even worse than I thought

somehow

[velvet oriole]

Yeah, I checked the time and it was 28 minutes.

Til there is a job title "Best boy electronic".

[steep bramble]

Cinema Therapy is covering KDH!

[dusk hound]

Ok finally

Now watching:

See you all on the other side

[velvet oriole]

Superman was alright. Not great but not horrible, though I do think it was a little too preachy.

4/10 Owls.

[dusk hound]

Interesting

Care to elaborate?

[velvet oriole]

It felt... How can I say this... Kind of boring? It felt like... It was made by a whole boardroom, kind of making it not as fun. Cgi wasn't the best either.

[dusk hound]

I very much disagree

It didn’t feel boring at all

The action was on point

[velvet oriole]

It was but... I don't think it was good either.

[gritty sierra]

for me, it felt like the film had too specific an opinion, too much of a real opinion to feel like it was a movie by committee

that's my criticism of the MCU now heh :P

[velvet oriole]

Yeah, I feel like it was trying to have a political opinion but was too scared to actually go through with it, and it seemed to turn into a joke, making it not take itself seriously.

[dusk hound]

I mean they go pretty far with it

It’s very much a commentary of what’s going on in our real world

But again

That’s neither here nor there

Btw Fantastic Four Twas good, 8/10 for me

[velvet oriole]

The thing is, if you are going to do it. DO IT. Take it seriously. And use real countries. It makes it seem like they don't take it seriously and play it off for laughs.

[dusk hound]

The film would be dead in the water by the WB execs if they used any real countries

Plus, films use allegories ALL THE TIME

[midnight compass]

That's also just a thing in comics, DC especially

And I do feel like Superman took political issues seriously

[velvet oriole]

And that is why the message dies. It wasn't taken seriously.

[dusk hound]

I think it’s taken pretty seriously tbh

Plus, comics have always been an allegory for the real world

And comics never take themselves serious

[keen flax]

I feel like comics and superheroes use allegories/fictional set pieces to further narratives all the time. Theres a reason why I prefer xmen over most of them

As much as I think superman is a good superhero movie, I think it did its job sending a message well~

[buoyant scroll]

Being safe, haven't seen the movie, this is about comic history+movie preview stuff ||Boravia has been a thing since 1939, where the plotline is not too far off from the basic set up in the movie, just adapted to modern context||

[keen flax]

But thats the beauty of comics and superheroes; there's one for everyone!

Watching superman made me realize that... he wasnt for me, but for the people he was for, it works really well!

[velvet oriole]

I do feel like X-men generally is better at it though.

I did like Smallville.

[dusk hound]

I love how this movie has really made so many people realize “Hey maybe Superman isn’t boring”

I know it’s been said a thousand times, but Zack Snyder did so much damage to his character

[keen flax]

Hes not! Though... I felt really bad after seeing the memes about him and im just like "he was alright!" He didnt give me the brain worms I was expecting

[gritty sierra]

yeah I went into this not really caring about Superman and I LOVED this movie. it's a 9/10 at minimum

I loved corenswet's performance, I thought it was fascinating. he made Superman interesting

[velvet oriole]

Despite me saying that it was a little boring?

[gritty sierra]

well there's been a few things in this channel (me included) where I said something like that

me and my sibs were RAVING about this movie the moment we walked out

also the DC universe has lots of fake cities and countries, I personally am scratching my head on how it's lesser bc it's a metaphor. we all knew what it meant, right

[velvet oriole]

I generally try to have a high standard for things. It felt like an average movie for me. 5 is what I consider an average movie. It wasn't horrible but it wasn't bad..

[dusk hound]

General consensus has been great, but if the movie wasn’t for you, then I completely understand

[keen flax]

Yeah thats valid!

[buoyant scroll]

I cannot comprehend thinking the use of allegory means a story isn't being serious

[gritty sierra]

mmhm, we don't all have to like the same things

[dusk hound]

The great thing about opinions

[keen flax]

My personal gripe doesnt really come from him but moreso longing for more superheros that emit that feeling and look like me 😂

[gritty sierra]

I do disagree with a lot of the reasoning? but that's okay too

[dusk hound]

If we didn’t have them, then the world would be boring

[gritty sierra]

I was in love from (Superman) ||"golly". and not for nothing, I was very taken aback (pleasantly) by how deep his voice was. like... oh 😳 ||

[dusk hound]

Superman ||That “Miss Lane” did things to me tbh||

[gritty sierra]

I hadn't seen any trailers or promo or anything, so I hadn't heard anything

[velvet oriole]

Superman ||They make fun of the country villain, making him ugly, weak, etc, as the guy is the representative of the country, making fun of him makes fun of the country, treating it as a joke instead of a serious problem. To me it is like when in marvel films they are all serious, in action but bam random joke is thrown in and it throws you out. But here, doing that means more because if you are trying to do serious political commentary, you need to treat it seriously and not as a joke.||

[keen flax]

OMG SAME?? ||The moment someone told me that fine af man was 6'4, I needed no other information I was already in the wedding dress 🥰||

[velvet oriole]

Superman ||Did the turtle survive? ||

[gritty sierra]

I don't think I agree with this but I also don't want to argue. I feel differently

[forest wigeon]

Fantastic 4 ||My favorite part was when Clobber said "It's clobberin' time" and clobbered all over the bad guys||

[molten jetty]

Watching the new F4 made me realize the F4 are probably the comics for me

[molten jetty]

F4 FS ||SAY IT. SAY THE LINE. SAY IT. ||

[keen flax]

See?? Everyone's got one 😂💖

That was me with Moon Girl tbh

-# wow the black girl in stem likes the black girl superhero in stem, unprecedented behavior

[molten jetty]

F4 is just so
Stretchy man is silly and does cool science stuff while being a wife man.

[dusk hound]

Fantastic 4 ||Still not lost on me that Johnny gets Ben to say his catchphrase but Johnny doesn’t say “Flame On!” Once in this movie ||

[dusk hound]

May I introduce you to Ironheart

[molten jetty]

I did watch the 2005 F4 movies after I saw the new F4 and 😭

They are rough lol

[keen flax]

Oh I am already waaaaaaaaaaaay ahead of you on that front my friend~ i just dont have D+ right now

Like that show is so perfect because not only is it about a black superhero girl in stem but also my husband Anthony Ramos is in it??? Say less 🤭

[velvet oriole]

I am still waiting for spiderverse 3. O.o

[dusk hound]

I’m waiting for it to get delayed again

[buoyant scroll]

So is Sony

[dusk hound]

It’s fine

[velvet oriole]

It's coming out in... 2027?

[dusk hound]

Atleast we get Brand New Day next summer

[keen flax]

Im not gonna be normal when beyond the spiderverse drops, warning yall now

[dusk hound]

And hopefully, fingers crossed a Wonder Woman movie in 2027

[keen flax]

Id like that~

WW is my favorite of DCs big three

-# I am full of predictable opinions

[buoyant scroll]

So curious to see what they do with her

She needs her minotaur buddy

[dusk hound]

I think they might go the origin story route

[keen flax]

In a perfect world we get absolute ww

[ivory night]

Hopefully more than a surface level attempt at girl power

[velvet oriole]

The trailer for Project Hail Mary looked good. 👀

[buoyant scroll]

Absolute is way too new, and I think way too tonally off xD

[dusk hound]

I’m going to assume WW isn’t a hero yet, I feel like they would have mentioned her in Superman

[dusk hound]

All they need to do is just adapt George Perez run on WW

[muted solar]

Please be good

[dusk hound]

And it’s also going to be nice to have again fingers crossed an actual actress play Wonder Woman this time

[keen flax]

That would be nice

As long as its not as boo boo ugly as ww84 I will literally give it a standing ovation

[ivory night]

Honestly I blame it a lot more on the writing than Gadot

[buoyant scroll]

slams fist Give me Ferdinand!

[ivory night]

I think she was fine in WW 1

[dusk hound]

JUST GIVE US THE NEW 52 WONDER WOMAN SUIT IN LIVE ACTION

IM PRAYING JAMES

[keen flax]

The direction also wasnt terrible in ww1

Like its a fine superhero movie the animated one is still better

[ivory night]

Well they had a good director

[velvet oriole]

Superman ||Supergirl looked cute ||

[dusk hound]

I feel like Gal Gadot’s bad acting works a LOT better in WW1 because she’s SUPPOSED to be awkward and unaccustomed to the human world

[keen flax]

Is it not the same for both?? I have no clue, ww84 just fills me with blind rage

[dusk hound]

Which one???

The 2009 one?

That one was good

[keen flax]

Yes, I really like that one!

Haven't seen blood ties(?) Yet... no max is killing me 😞

[ivory night]

It is but one of the great breaking bad directors and producers was the original director for WW

[dusk hound]

Give her a magical girl anime transformation like Lynda Carter and I will be happy

[keen flax]

ohhhhhhh that'll do it

sigh the worst part is ww84 could have been so great

[ivory night]

I mean they clearly had no idea what made it good

[distant birch]

Ww84 was such a weird movie (/neg)

[keen flax]

yeah I love my 80s inspired movie to be full of greys and neutral colors

[buoyant scroll]

-# I prefer the skirt

[keen flax]

The skirt is cute!

I really like her fit in the animated movie War... the silver adds such a sleek touch

https://tenor.com/view/justiceleague-war-ice-cream-wonder-woman-gif-4938401

Like give me more of my queen

[dusk hound]

If they’re gonna do a skirt I would like them to do the silver age skirt

[ivory night]

Like what is interesting about WW character wise that makes her unique beyond WOMAN ? (Not a criticism, literally asking so we can do more character understanding than DC movie execs did)

[buoyant scroll]

You're such a traditionalist :p

[distant birch]

I hope we get a Superman 2025 but for wonder woman

[dusk hound]

The battle skirt has been growing on me but I’m still not the biggest fan of it tbh

[buoyant scroll]

I like the battle skirt or pants most

Armor makes most of her designs instantly better also

[dusk hound]

Wonder Woman has been in desperate need of a revitalization, this movie better solidify her as THE role model for an entire generation of girls

I HOPE they don’t go the origin story route yet again with this movie, especially since we already HAVE a great origin story movie in WW 1, but I have a feeling that’s the route they’re going to take

[keen flax]

For me (and tbis is coming from someone whos seen 1 animated ww movie + JL/JLU years ago) shes very headstrong and unapologetic? Like someone said she'd be chaotic good on an alignment chart, since yeah shes gonna fight for good in her own way and screw anyone else (sometimes this can be her own team)

Like shes bold but flawed and im drawn to that moreso than batman and even superman tbh

Which means she has a lot of room to grow and change and no one ever uses it

[ivory night]

I think this approach is backwards. We don’t need another unobtainable levels perfection woman role model

[keen flax]

The 09 movie does a really good job at it imo

[distant birch]

I don't think role models need to be perfect tbf

[keen flax]

Right! Like I adore diana because shes not perfect and shes arguably the most flawed of the big 3

[distant birch]

One could even argue having flaws makes a better role model

[keen flax]

Like Bruce and clark gotta be the ones to hold her back because she will body check you 😭

[buoyant scroll]

Then it is obvious what must be done...
Wonder Woman: G-Pop Demon Hunter

[dusk hound]

She’s the most metal of the three

[keen flax]

Theres a JL/JLU (cant remember which) episode ||Where clark "dies" and diana immediately rushes the villian to try and kill him, shes so based||

[ivory night]

Role model is down stream of building a deep character and a great movie. The goal of establishing her as role model is the exact thing that WW84 tried and failed miserably at

[keen flax]

100000% agree

[buoyant scroll]

-# the moral disintegrity of the actress didnt help

[dusk hound]

You joke but a K-Pop demon hunters type animated movie with Wonder Woman would go hard

[buoyant scroll]

Wonder Woman doing Greek rap while fighting the hordes of Hades

[ivory night]

When 84 came out the big knock on her was the cringey celebrity singing video she was apart of

But also we’re branching into rules stuff

[ivory night]

Better ending than WW 1

[forest wigeon]

DC movies general ||They skipped past origin story with Superman (and Batman for that matter)||

[buoyant scroll]

I could see them doing an "origin" story that doesn't get too bogged down in the minutia of her past

[ivory night]

We also just had an origin story 8 years ago

I know it won’t stop them but sheesh

[forest wigeon]

You know, Wonder Woman as a modern day Hercules would be an interesting angle

[dusk hound]

DC Movies ||Creature Commandos says that Themyscira is “perhaps mythical, perhaps real” so unless she’s just operating from the shadows, idk if she’s a hero yet||

[buoyant scroll]

Their like, current line-up of planned movies is so bizarre it's hard to guess what the meta plot might be

[dusk hound]

It’ll be interesting for sure

I need a release date for Lanterns NOWWW

We still don’t have one

[forest wigeon]

You know, if they don't have a plan for a meta plot, it's still better than rushing into crossovers before even having a Batman movie like the DCEU

[dusk hound]

Gunn has said that there’s currently a 10 year plan

Once they get the Trinity solo movies out of the way, I think we might have a better understanding of the meta plot

[forest wigeon]

soviet DC

[buoyant scroll]

Yeah I assume there's a meta plot, but Gunn is such a like super dork he's pulling out all sorts of deep cut niche stuff

[dusk hound]

That’s my only problem

We want these movies to make money and be successful right??

But who the hell is going to go see a Clayface movie

[distant birch]

-# me

[forest wigeon]

tbf you could say that about GotG

Also Clayface definitely has potential to be interesting

[dusk hound]

Like I think Clayface will be good, I love Mike Flanagan, but general audiences won’t be interested in it

[buoyant scroll]

https://tenor.com/view/predator-arnold-schwarzenegger-hand-shake-arms-gif-3468629

[dusk hound]

The thing about the MCU was that it drew in general audiences

[buoyant scroll]

Is Clayface part of Gunn's universe or is it Elseworld?

[dusk hound]

But trying to replicate the MCU is a death sentence (see, Exhibit A: The Snyderverse)

[dusk hound]

Part of his universe

Might also be where we get our first look at Batman

[forest wigeon]

That would be weird

And uncomfortably reminiscent of the SSU

[dusk hound]

I’m definitely certain that we’re building up to a Superman and Supergirl team up movie (which is the sequel, but not really sequel, that Gunn has been teasing that he’s writing)

Almost forgot Peacemaker releases this month too

[oak ivy]

Honestly it is barely a metaphor

It just does the thing it is talking about

[gritty sierra]

yep

[dusk hound]

ITS BEAUTIFUL https://fxtwitter.com/discussingfilm/status/1951642335562883297?s=46

[topaz oyster]

Is it? Even by Marvel standards this is a nothingburger teaser

[dusk hound]

The suit looks good?

I just wish they showed the mask

Hardly a nothingburger teaser tbh, he has a new suit

[cold sequoia]

can't wait for it to be replaced by a cgi suit in 90% of the shots in the movie

[cosmic dock]

How can it be a Holland Spider-Man movie if the title doesn't include "Home"?

[turbid laurel]

I guess that just means he’s homeless now

[forest wigeon]

It's part of a new trilogy

Presumably the next two will also have "Day"

[turbid laurel]

Maybe it will be “Brand”

Spider-Man: Brand Deals Galore

Spider-Man: Branded Vigilante

[dusk hound]

The MCU desperately needs a HARD reboot after Secret Wars

[topaz oyster]

I dunno about that

"Ignoring plot lines that didn't land" is a strategy they can meaningfully deploy only sparingly but it has more or less been working for them so far

Helps that Secret Wars went fairly unwatched as far as I can tell

[tight dove]

secret invasion was the show
secret wars is the next next avengers movie

[topaz oyster]

Oh yeah

Well, Avengers movie after next, anyway

Next is Doomsday

[oak ivy]

Make street level spiderman a twitch streamer

[molten jetty]

Flash is right there

[topaz oyster]

That is a sidequest in the first of the two recent Spider-man games

[cosmic dock]

Only Spidey game I played was Web of Shadows lol

[topaz oyster]

They're good!

[heavy anchor]

Me: YES

[forest wigeon]

I mean, *gestures at DC and Marvel movies in the 20th century*

[dusk hound]

I mean in the MCU era

DC has always played second fiddle to Marvel in terms of box office in the MCU era

[topaz oyster]

The Dark Knight and Iron Man both came out in 2008

[forest wigeon]

Huh

[keen flax]

stacked year my goodness

[forest wigeon]

Was expecting Iron Man to at least be in the top three

[ivory night]

Hancock out selling iron man lol

[forest wigeon]

I can't believe cinematic masterpiece Star Wars: The Clone Wars (movie) isn't on here

[ivory night]

People used to really like will smith

[oak ivy]

This was seventeen years ago

[topaz oyster]

Hancock was the beginning of the end for him

That or After Earth, whichever came first

[forest wigeon]

Well, it was the start of the MCU, and the MCU has been declining, so it seems fairly comparable

[oak ivy]

DC had the better brand at the time

[inland jetty]

Hancock coming out the same year as Crystal Skull feels weird to me, for some reason I remember a very distinct line (moving from michigan to florida as a kid) separating them

[ivory night]

if you told the top 10 to me for the life of me i would never predict this order

[keen flax]

Madagascar 2 being as high as it is is killing me 😂

I contributed to that

Thank you 6 year old Cosmic

[burnt shale]

Oh that one doesn’t suprise me at all

[ionic lily]

Omggggg

[burnt shale]

The big one for me is mamma Mia being that low that feels odd to me

[hushed moss]

I am so hyped for that set. WALL-E has been my favorite for forever

[crimson kelp]

personally I can't believe more people went to see that awful indiana jones movie than kung fu panda

[dusk hound]

Always has been and always will be

[forest wigeon]

I know it's just their logos, but something about how WW is represented by boobs feels weird

[buoyant scroll]

id suspect that was the joke

[topaz oyster]

I don't even think Wonder Woman is normally in the fourth place spot

[dusk hound]

She should be

[topaz oyster]

Any time I've seen numbers on it in recent years it has been Spider-man as the most popular hero in the US by a wide margin, followed by Batman and then Superman, but then fourth place seems to be determined by [recent popular movie]

[dusk hound]

I can’t think of anyone else

[lone canyon]

She’s in the fourth spot even in dc

[topaz oyster]

Cap and Hulk are both commonly up there

[lone canyon]

Iron man was probably big during the mcu heyday

[cold sequoia]

4th would probably be Harley Quinn tbh

[dusk hound]

I honestly wouldn’t put them up there

[topaz oyster]

If you quantify her as a hero, since sometimes these kind of polls separate out heroes and villains as well

[topaz oyster]

I'm not telling you what I think, I'm telling you what polling I've seen over the years says

[cold sequoia]

Captain American has an argument after Endgame something but Hulk was never at this level

[dusk hound]

Wonder Woman is one of the most popular female superheroes and was one of the first, her popularity is even mainstream, she’s an honorary UN Ambassador

[dusk hound]

Oh I know, I didn’t mean to sound like I was rude to you

Apologies

[burnt shale]

Her popularity feels kinda hollow imo she’s a cultural icon but I think her die hard fanbase is smaller

[cold sequoia]

the diehard Superman fanbase is also smaller

[burnt shale]

I think the answer is Wolverine btw

[small quarry]

Harley

[cold sequoia]

Spider-man and Batman are on a level of their own and everyone else is at minimum a tier below

[dusk hound]

I could see that tbh

[topaz oyster]

Wonder Woman also suffers from like arguably one and a half good adaptations ever

[burnt shale]

I think it’s Superman, Batman Spider-Man Wolverine

[dusk hound]

But I feel the reason that Wonder Woman hasn’t been popular in recent years is because she really hasn’t been written well in adaptations

Not to mention her current comic run isn’t the most popular either

[cold sequoia]

Wolverine isn't even Marvel's most popular hero with a healing factor (that is Deadpool)

once the new xmen movies come out that might change

[burnt shale]

I mean Superman is still a comics seller and the hostoric roll and legacy is greater there

[burnt shale]

Yeah but vs Wonder Woman

[cold sequoia]

my point is choosing a top 4 does not really make sense

there is a clear Top 2, and then Superman, and then a mix of characters based on the most recent successful movies/shows/games

like at the height of the MCU it would have been Iron Man, after that it would have been Harley Quinn

[burnt shale]

Superman certainly gets a legacy spot becuase of history and being basically the originator. Even if Batman and Spider-Man sell more similar levels of iconic

[cold sequoia]

if legacy counts then the 4th is Wonder Woman

[burnt shale]

I mean it certainly has an argumentalong those lines but wonder woman I think in many ways has aged worse and has a less defined legacy

Like easy among the candidates for the 4th but not as clear an inclusion

I’d argue a lot of wonder woman’s iconic nature stems from an inclusion in the zeitgeist’s as the female friendly superhero costume whereas things like Wolverine and the other options have had a more defined cultural moment and depending on the character more consistent runs

Like iron man being they mcu character

Or Wolverine as the face of X-men

[cold sequoia]

the zeitgeist being one that started in the 1960s?

[vernal stirrup]

def Wolverine

at least in comic book circles

or Deadpool

[sage finch]

WW movie was tragic, struggling with normal ppl like she can’t hold her own against supes easily

[minor ledge]

the 2000s f4 was better smh

[west escarp]

Huh critical role has recruited Brennan Lee Mulligan for the campaign 4 dm, but they refuse to stay what system they’ll use

[cold sequoia]

there is no way it is, but if it were the cosmere rpg this server would probably condense into a black hole

-# also there was some discussion of the critical role news in #tabletop-games-archive

[molten jetty]

Huh

[dusk hound]

I really don’t think so

Those movies were… not good

[minor ledge]

i havent actually watched first steps but i think the 2000s one was decent

[hushed moss]

I just got my younger brother to watch KPDH.

[keen flax]

And his thoughts 👀👀

[hushed moss]

He like it. Particularly the bird and cat.

Rewatching KPDH with my mom and I’m now really curious about Rumi’s backstory.

[solemn tangle]

I know I'm late to the party but I'm finally joining the freaking out over kpop demon hunters crowd

[ivory night]

Party is still going!

[solemn tangle]

@timber marsh was the final push I needed to watch it. and now I am emotionally destroyed

If your friend is struggling, the signs might not be obvious. A cry for help can take many different forms. Try checking in on them if you hear them express any of the following sentiments:

• I miss Supernatural
• I should rewatch Supernatural
• Supernatural was such a good show
• I hope they make more Supernatural

Guys is the hannibal show good

[west escarp]

YES

ITS SO GOOD

[distant birch]

Hmm maybe I'll give it a try then

I have no idea but I do know it is a major reason Lore Olympus exists 🤣

Explain.

That's such a random connection

[keen flax]

Hades's appearance is based off of Mads Mickelson, specifically him from Hannibal 😂

Theres old doodles of the creator (Rachel) drawing herself being held by him

Let’s goooo

KPDH is so peak

Almost like it’s not superhero fatigue, it’s MCU fatigue https://x.com/discussingfilm/status/1952001565222457551?s=46

‘SUPERMAN’ will likely be the highest grossing comic book movie of 2025

The first time for DC since 2008 when the MCU started.

[turbid narwhal]

Bad movies fatigue

[dusk hound]

That too

Love and Thunder and Quantumania really killed the MCU beyond repair

[crimson kelp]

I think it's a combo

like... I think if those movies released when people weren't super tired of "part 158 of the ever growing saga, hope you watched every other movie and tv show and caught all the easter eggs" those movies would have grossed much higher

"this thing isn't even really a thing that can stand on its own it's just a series of tie-ins and things to build up to the other things we want you to see"

which is also how I've gotten kinda burned out on Cosmere tbh

[forest wigeon]

F4 was the first MCU movie I've seen in years and I was surprised how good it was. ||It was also detached enough from the rest of the MCU that I actually wondered if it was an elseworld until the mid credit scene||

||Actually, I suppose it still could be||

[molten jetty]

F4 ||it’s in the multiverse but a world where the F4 are the only heroes||

[timber marsh]

Your most welcome

Or I’m sorry

Both

[solemn tangle]

yeah both 😭👍

[oak ivy]

I need more out of you! Favorite characters, songs, jokes moments? Hottest demon? ||Did you like the bird and cat?||

[molten jetty]

“Ha ha silly K-pop movie” -> “wait this is peak”

[solemn tangle]

||favorite character is obviously Rumi lmao. her scene with Celine fully broke me. favorite song is Golden right now but it might be What It Sounds Like given time bc that scene was very moving to me||

||the animation style was honestly a little too comedic/exaggerated for me at times but that's personal taste. it was really fun and effective. I can't pick a favorite joke moment there are so many, but I love the cat always trying to get the pots upright. number one sign that isn't a real cat||

[oak ivy]

||that scene took half this server, tied a bag over their head, then beat them with large sticks in a wendy’s parking lot||

[solemn tangle]

||none of the ensemble demons were really characters at all so that feels unfair. but Jinu and Rumi actually had so much chemistry 😩 ||

[oak ivy]

KDH ||jinu is the only demon who remotely matters. They nailed him and rumi beat for beat||

||romance sequel????||

[solemn tangle]

we can dream

[oak ivy]

Apparently we may get like 17 sequels

And maybe a live action version? Everything is being considered

[molten jetty]

Okay but Duck have you considered

[oak ivy]

Those arent characters

You hallucinated them

[small quarry]

They are not characters lmao

[oak ivy]

🤝

[buoyant scroll]

||Baby having maybe the most personality out of the unimportant ensemble remains pretty funny to me.||

[small quarry]

2nd one is kinda cute in design but like they just aren't in the film lmao

[molten jetty]

Jinu is definitely the hottest though

[thin ridge]

See all that means is that I can project whatever I want onto them 🥰

[solemn tangle]

Rumi hoarded all the character juice

wait I do know my favorite comedic moment ||it's the scene with the doctor. he cracked me up||

[oak ivy]

Turn your main character syndrome into a main character disease!

[thin ridge]

Ok but every time I think about him [KDH] ||I see him flying through the air in Free and he just looks exactly like a mannequin. He looks more like a mannequin than a person at that point. I can't get past that.||

[keen flax]

Me, who dreams of Mystery being my husband every night: mhm mhm exactly right my friend 🥰

[solemn tangle]

||all I remember is Abby is the one with abs||

[buoyant scroll]

||Daniel Dae Kim killing it||

[thin ridge]

I'm all for Abby personally

[solemn tangle]

||but I assume they all have abs so that's kind of useless||

Duck last night I had a dream about the expanse 😩 I can't escape James Holden even in my sleep now I hate this

[timber marsh]

Yesssss I’m so glad I infected you

[oak ivy]

Consciousness was a mistake

[molten jetty]

My favorite comedic moment was ||abs||

[oak ivy]

I laughed kdh ||at the over the top montage of them doing makeup to get reads to fight the saja boys||

[timber marsh]

||The leather… has betrayed ys||

[buoyant scroll]

||The glitter war paint just for her to apparently wash it off cause she wasn't wearing it in the full outfit is great||

[oak ivy]

||feather voice and jinu cut through that leather armor! With his demon claws!||

[solemn tangle]

||"they can make hearts out of thin air??" also peak||

[molten jetty]

Someone tagged me that they were inspired by manhwa expressions and yeah. This movie was genetically engineered for me.

[buoyant scroll]

KDH ||-# Feather just telling everyone about her dreams unprovoked||

[buoyant scroll]

||Zoey just being super into Sodapop always gets a smile out of me||

[solemn tangle]

it's a banger! cant blame her

[oak ivy]

||i like the manager he was fun. Also he has no idea what is going on lmao||

[keen flax]

Kdh ||Bobby was iconic||

[solemn tangle]

|| "I don't know about the whole demon thing, they seem like nice boys, but I love the energy"||

[pliant bane]

Wasn't this the whole selling point of Cosmere and MCU? This is like saying one's tired of LoTR since it has a lot description of the world which are beautifully written

Granted for MCU's, none of the movies were really that good

so it's more of quality of content issue than the universe issue

[cold sequoia]

the selling point of the Cosmere, the MCU, etc should be "the books/movies/etc are good"

[crimson kelp]

Not really. Like if you pick up Way of Kings in a store and read the blurb you're not necessarily buying in to a part 9 of a 60+ book series, but book 1 of 5 or 10

but also even if you like something there's such a thing as fatigue

[cold sequoia]

if the books/movies/etc are not enjoyable then the fact that they tie into other books/movies/etc doesn't help

[crimson kelp]

I like chocolate but if I eat it for every meal I throw up

[pliant bane]

I dunno. I always see the charm of a vast universe of interconnected arcs and etc. It's building a universe of books. As long as books are good, which have been in Cosmere, I can't see fatigue being a criticism. It's the Unique Selling Point of it

[cold sequoia]

For both the MCU and the Cosmere, I think that recent entries have on average not been as good and as Poobah said, fatigue is not related to the quality of a given thing anyway

[molten jetty]

I think the key is looking at comic books. Is there comic book fatigue of people not having read all 1000 Spiderman comics to understand his crossover into the Avengers comics? No. Because every comic is treated such that you can jump in and not feel FOMO. So, instead of needing to watch every entry or read every entry, it should prioritize being able to jump in, as well as have the crossover.

[pliant bane]

I have read cosmere in a very different order, and not felt left out

[cobalt onyx]

Counterpoint, there isn't fatigue about that in comics because that's something that's scaring people away in the first place

[pliant bane]

I read Mistborn era 1 and era 2 at the end after finishing everything

well everything until Jan 2025

[cold sequoia]

I generally do not read comics month to month and when I do it's for a specific run

[crimson kelp]

Also for me with both Cosmere and MCU there's a sense of... I enjoyed the interconnectedness when that interconnectedness was represented as a few minor easter eggs, a post credits scene, maybe some small crossover/nods to other things but the main movie/book was a reasonable stand alone adventure/worked totally fine with just having seen/read the immediate prequels within its own series. But with both I feel like the crossovers and easter eggs and things setting up other things have become increasingly the main thing and the "required reading/viewing" list has grown to an excessive level

[pliant bane]

The latter's like the selling point for me at this point in Cosmere

so I dunno

[keen flax]

The Expanse s1 ep 1 ||I love the colors of this... but uhhh I did not expect that to be my first impression of Holden 😅||

[crimson kelp]

yeah I mean thats fine, taste/enjoyment is not something where consensus is needed

[pliant bane]

fosho

It just seems crazy to me that the thing that's Cosmere had always seemed to be going towards is something people are disliking. But to each their own

[oak ivy]

I think people search for reasons to explain why they dont like it as much as they are used to when in reality it is always a combination of two things

1. books arent as good as they used to be
2. liking anything that much is unsustainable

The exact breakdown differs by person

[paper hull]

It seems similar to the franchise fatigue that plagues longrunning live-service games, like how even the disturbingly saccharine FF14 community turned on the last expansion.

[ivory night]

Omg wait expanse 1-1 all || I can’t wait to talk about the most random cameo in television ||

[keen flax]

Expanse 1.1 ||Jimmy is alright, hes visually kinda pookie but im not a fan of his... vibe??||

[oak ivy]

You would like the actor more smh

[ivory night]

Not safe for cosmic || it’s because he’s a sad angry boy rn. He’ll grow on her||

[keen flax]

He is an attractive man, I cant help myself 😌✨️

[ivory night]

Good

[topaz oyster]

Steven Strait is a total dork irl

[oak ivy]

Kon-Tiki hit em with the classics

[topaz oyster]

Strait will

He liked arguing philosophy with Ty Franck on set apparently

[ivory night]

But he isn’t a ||sexual harasser|| unlike some people. CW bad workplace

Expanse show all || anyways glad they killed him and shunned the actor ||

[paper hull]

It was a remarkably smooth handling of the situation, I don't think someone unaware of the context would feel like it's out of place.

[topaz oyster]

Expanse general ||It is a shame because Alex deserved better||

[topaz oyster]

Expanse ||Fred already does die there so it was a neat setup and handled well with minor reshoots||

[ivory night]

The expanse has the most insane recurring/guest cast

[topaz oyster]

||I think it is weird that they kill off a major character more-or-less offscreen but there was so much else happening that its almost blink and you'll miss it||

[keen flax]

Wow, a lot of you have seen this

[paper hull]

https://tenor.com/view/yes-amos-burton-the-expanse-yeah-correct-gif-20026837

[topaz oyster]

A lot of us have also read the books

[ivory night]

It was the maybe the best sci fi show of the 2010s

[topaz oyster]

So when someone new is experiencing it there tends to be a lot of Expanse chatter and in multiple channels

[frank quail]

we're expanse shilling and no one called me?

[ivory night]

Like its battlestar galactica but for people born after 1990

[topaz oyster]

I saw you in the reacts somewhere

[paper hull]

Galactica was the best sci fi show of the 2000s.

[ivory night]

Yup

We get like one great one a decade

Although… feel like we’ve been getting more lately

[topaz oyster]

This decade we get two seasons of Andor

[frank quail]

Does Severance count as scifi?

[full wolf]

hold up i was cooking lunch did i miss the part where we're (kdh) ||talking about Jinu's claws being sharp enough to slice through leather armor in one swipe 😳 ||

[ivory night]

-# is it weird I don’t think of andor as sci fi

[topaz oyster]

Yes, question mark?

[ivory night]

Severance probably is

Even foundation is solid

[topaz oyster]

Hilariously I think we don't know enough about Severance to make a good judgment call there

[ivory night]

The first two seasons of for all man kind cook

[paper hull]

Severance doesn't feel scifi

[ivory night]

Oh man

[topaz oyster]

And Silo. I like Silo a hell of a lot better than Foundation

[ivory night]

I should watch those seasons of for all mankind again

Just

[keen flax]

I watched the first episode! Omg...

[ivory night]

Wait you finished it!

[paper hull]

They made some fine drama out of turning the ship around.

[full wolf]

Severance is both 15 minutes into the future sci-fi and retrofuturism sci-fi so it doesn't feel futuristic because it's picked two of the least sci-fi feeling sci-fi genres to combine

[topaz oyster]

Actually, now that the Severance withdrawals have worn off I think it is a generally better time for people to give Silo a shot

[full wolf]

It mostly feels normal modern and where it doesn't feel modern, it feels retro

[paper hull]

It feels like a cyberpunk outside of a city environment, kind of.

[keen flax]

You know its a good show when im locked in for an hour AND its live action... man oh man I think I have brain worms

[topaz oyster]

Silo was never going to do well in a direct head to head comparison against Severance but it isn't really trying to be Severance and is very good

[ivory night]

Cosmic have you seen breaking bad?

[keen flax]

No :((

Trust me, if you ask me if ive seen a live action show the answer 9/10 is no 🤣

[ivory night]

Because there’s a very beloved and prominent actor from that show in episode 1 and it is the most random casting I have ever seen

[full wolf]

hey kon...

[topaz oyster]

The amount of just raw vibes

You've never actually said a word to me about it!

[full wolf]

i don't have to say it! you know what i mean

also i said i wouldn't say it, so this is me not saying it :3

uwu

[ivory night]

Slow horses comes back September 24🤩

Apple for real is my fav streamer rn lol

Which is kinda crazy considering how rough their start was

[keen flax]

My mom canceled apple tv :((

I was gonna watch severance! The age of me watching actors is now!!

[ivory night]

“The age of me watching actors is now!” - Cosmic

[topaz oyster]

I watched the first episode of that Jason Momoa show and it was so bad

[full wolf]

oh no... i saw some of the promo for that, i wanted it to be good

[ivory night]

lol I love how they’re sending me push notifications for it as of like yesterday despite never watching it

[gritty sierra]

what was the Jason Momoa show

[topaz oyster]

It was called See

Everyone in the world is blind in a post apocalypse except Jason Momoa's son

[ivory night]

Wait it’s new?

[full wolf]

Ohhhh ok wait maybe this is a different one. I was thinking of the Hawaiian historical drama one

Chief of War

[ivory night]

Is this the second mamoa show???

[topaz oyster]

No, it was one of Apple's first shows

[ivory night]

Okay

That’s what I thought

But there’s another one that came out this month

I’m assuming because it’s has 3 episodes

[topaz oyster]

Oh I've never heard of this

Might be one to watch with my parents (my dad lived in Hawaii for several years due to his father's military service and will watch nearly anything Hawaii-adjacent as a result)

[ivory night]

Minecraft movie and a second Apple show

Wild

[keen flax]

What was the cameo btw?? So many people looked and sounded familiar but I drew blanks every time 😔💔

[topaz oyster]

Expanse 101 ||The prior XO who killed himself||

||He's from Breaking Bad||

Him being in the original trailer is part of what got me on the books in the leadup to the show

[keen flax]

Ohhhhhhhh!

[ivory night]

Like when I say it is the most random cameo

[topaz oyster]

That and Shoreh Aghdashloo of course

[topaz oyster]

I thought you'd been talking about the ||Adam Savage|| cameo at the... end of s2?

[ivory night]

Canonically hot Shoreh Aghdashloo

[full wolf]

It just came out on Friday! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=owdGcwufWK8

[ivory night]

-# that explains why I’m getting push notifications lol

[keen flax]

Yeah prime is gaslighting me to watch this now

[topaz oyster]

The Expanse is one of their best shows

Even now

[full wolf]

Momoa did a promo video with the Jolly guys, eating Hawaiian food with them and a) it was a hilarious video, he's got great energy, but also b) you could tell this was such a passion project for him, like he's been wanting to make this show for many many years and is very proud of it

[ivory night]

The expanse is amazing

[full wolf]

He's one of the showrunners too

[keen flax]

I really liked the first ep, it scratches my red rising brain worms

[molten jetty]

Expanse is a great show

[full wolf]

this was very cute and very unhinged: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pfe_cH7hfUY

[molten jetty]

I need to read the books at some point

[topaz oyster]

Glad Apple gave him a second bite at the, uh, apple

[ivory night]

Omg omg omg you’re going to love it

[cold sequoia]

the Mamoa/Bautista vs Rock/Cena dichotomy is really interesting

Mamoa and Bautista but have done schlock and blockbusters but the both seem genuinly interested in making stuff that matters to them, unlike the Rock and Cena

[full wolf]

I don't have Apple TV right now yet either, but it does seem kinda Shogun-esque and that interests me, so I'd probably come back to it

[topaz oyster]

Momoa and Bautista both also have at least a like baseline of acting ability

[ivory night]

Shogun my beloved

[full wolf]

Apple looking for their own Shogun and choosing Hawai'i feels like a great vibe

[ivory night]

Television is great

[topaz oyster]

Neither the Rock nor John Cena can act

[cold sequoia]

I think that Johnson and Cena can also act, but just seem uninterested in doing so

Pain & Gain is an example of Johnson actually acting

and Cena is a very good comedic actor when he puts his mind to it

[topaz oyster]

Pain & Gain is an example of Johnson trying to act

[ivory night]

I think they’re like Kevin hart or Chris Pratt rn where they get cast to be the rock or John cena

They have their schtick

[full wolf]

Jason Momoa in his cute hair scrunchie making this face and going "good job, you silly little englishmen" is one of those perfect moments, you know?

[topaz oyster]

I haven't seen John Cena in anything where he's funny and the joke is not also to some extent "look at John Cena do this thing"

[novel bear]

i think Cena has absolutely proven he's not in the same category as Johnson, with Peacemaker

[ivory night]

The only thing I’ve really seen him in lately is when he was a mermaid

[novel bear]

Peacemaker is a role that is very well suited for him, so I wouldn't say it proves he has range, but he absolutely plays it really well in a way I've never really seen from Johnson

[ivory night]

Clearly y’all have never seen the greatness that is the scorpion king

[keen flax]

Also jonh Cena did a great job as Fred's Dad so that gives him bonus points

[novel bear]

I feel like I only have ever seen the Rock play a big badass cool guy, while Cena actually showed he could do emotional nuances pretty well

[topaz oyster]

Dwayne The Rock Johnson also tends to build up Tom Cruise levels of caveats in his contracts to prevent him from needing to act that he is not big enough or established in Hollywood enough to actually pull off

[cold sequoia]

yeah I guess it's fair to put Cena in a different category than Johnson now

[ivory night]

The Rock is acting anytime he’s in public

He’s always selling

-# it’s really annoying

[novel bear]

It makes me wonder if people like that even have a baseline personality anymore, or if all that's left is the persona

[cold sequoia]

Netflix was truly prescient to put the Rock, Ryan Reynolds, and Gal Gadot in the same movie

[topaz oyster]

I mean that's absolutely true but also a different skill than like acting acting

[ivory night]

I know I just wanted to talk about how he kinda idk got subsumed by the persona in public

[topaz oyster]

He can work a crowd and he is a shill but that's not really the same as taking up an actual character

[cold sequoia]

if you are talking about what JM28 said about the Rock, that wasn't an endorsement of his acting ability

[ivory night]

It’s a criticism

He can’t or doesn’t drop it ever

[topaz oyster]

He strikes me as the kind of man who is tantrum-prone in private

[ivory night]

You mean he is prone to rage

[topaz oyster]

I think the biggest difference between the two is mass

[ivory night]

Maybe due to idk some sort of drug he takes to maintain his body

[cold sequoia]

me seeing the most steroided man in Hollywood
"yeah something tells me he's prone to rages"

[ivory night]

He must smell so bad

[topaz oyster]

I mean you're not wrong but it isn't part of The Persona

(I do not know why he continues to insist that he comes by that mass naturally)

[ivory night]

Because he’s a “role model” to children

[gritty sierra]

I'm fond of John Cena in a way Dwayne can't touch

[topaz oyster]

Which children lmao

[ivory night]

Children Kon

Vague amorphous children

[gritty sierra]

every time I see John Cena I'm like "he seems nice :)"

[topaz oyster]

Anyway yes I have already convinced my parents to watch Chief of War

Extremely easy sell for them

[full wolf]

there you go, the other jason momoa apple tv show gets a win

[topaz oyster]

This is excellent

[full wolf]

It's really very hilarious

i ended up watching it again

instantly has cemented momoa as a fave celebrity for me, actually

he just has great vibes, it turns out

[novel bear]

jason momoa is likeable in a way that makes me feel bad about how unwatchable aquaman 2 was

[keen flax]

My mother really likes him... maybe I can convince her to get apple tv back 👀👀👀

[full wolf]

i believe in u

bonne chance

[topaz oyster]

Places like this are fairly common in SLC fortunately

[keen flax]

If he or Idris Elba is in anything, she will find a way to see it 😭

[gritty sierra]

so, cyberpunk 2077 let's play on YouTube next?

[cold sequoia]

Jason Mamoa : Dune :: Dave Bautista : Bladerunner
Jason Mamoa : Aquaman :: Dave Bautista : GotG
Jason Mamoa : ???? :: Dave Bautista : Knives Out 2
Jason Mamoa : See :: Dave Bautista : ????

[topaz oyster]

Not quite as local but SLC has a nontrivial Polynesian population so we get some of the good food

[ivory night]

Do I have news for you about an Apple TV show featuring idris Elba

[keen flax]

👀👀👀

[molten jetty]

There's a reason BYU has a Hawai'i campus

[topaz oyster]

Two of my cousins went there

One of them never left

[ivory night]

Apparently they filmed season 2 of it last year but uh there’s def a show from him on there

[gritty sierra]

I feel like my reaction ended up surprising me with how big it was, can she beat me

[runic pollen]

https://youtu.be/oGqnobMZk04?si=JjxpZUYgci4NCdAb

I think this video goes into good detail about both of them and their trajectory

[topaz oyster]

I suspect the answer is yes

[keen flax]

The answer will certianly surprise you 🥴

[molten jetty]

What the guy who gets you to simp in CP2077 says about you:

[gritty sierra]

it's not my fault my range caps off lower!

it's proportionally VERY VERY HIGH

[molten jetty]

For me it was ||Takemura ||

because ohhhhhh

[topaz oyster]

Can you imagine a like 130lb Englishman having to look Jason Momoa in the eye and eat a spam musubi

[ivory night]

Oh crap well now I want to watch it

[full wolf]

look Jason Momoa in the eye and *lady and the tramp a spam musubi

lets be clear

[keen flax]

[topaz oyster]

Figgy pudding spam????

[full wolf]

i believe i used the word "unhinged"

i was not kidding

[topaz oyster]

That's still underselling it!

She's been a schoolteacher in Hawaii for about ten years is what it means

[full wolf]

okay this is an acid trip of a Jolly video that feels like it fell out of an alternate dimension and also jason momoa is hilarious

[topaz oyster]

Jason Momoa absolutely took this show over yeah

[buoyant scroll]

-# Well that's boring

[topaz oyster]

He was super hyped to be in Hawaii and brought a ton of energy

[full wolf]

now you see why i was sad when you said "the jason momoa apple tv show was not good"!

bc i was like "noooo i wanted it to be good , he was so nice and happy about it in that video..."

[topaz oyster]

Oh yeah. See was garbage though

And even then it got like three seasons so suck it Netflix
