Snowglobe of Doom posted:The latest Netflix Daredevil series actually tackled this head on with The Punisher taking a personal interest in Daredevil and trying to prove he was "Just one bad day away from being me" and Daredevil outright rejecting that. How "outright" was the rejection when later on in the season Daredevil says "ok fine let's do it your way"?

He also throws a guy off a building to kill him. I mean he doesn't actually die from the impact but the intent was clearly to murder that dude.

Burkion posted:This is totally divorced from the character, and since they're clearly aiming to appeal to the nostalgia of the public, good and bad, I don't think this is a good way to take the costume because it evokes nothing of it.   All this has happened before, and all this will happen again.

Dawn Of Justice is innovative because they made Batman the most broken possible person at the very start of this film, in order to get that 'is he gonna snap?' stuff out of the way. He already snapped offscreen, before the film even began.

Flash/ReverseFlash and Aquaman/OceanMaster could be the pretty standard 'intro film includes guy with the same powers' that superhero movies love. Dunno anything about Aqua though (and Flash either really, never seen the show), what does an Aquaman movie look like? Is it all underwater? Does he talk to humans on the surface? Does he stab Lex's sub camera because he's a feral ocean dweller who doesn't understand technology? ...ok, Wiki suggests he's just a regular dude for the most part. Huh, I always assumed he was a magical merman or something.

Elektra is clearly a bad, toxic influence on him. By the end of the season, he's driven away Karen and Foggy, allied himself with Frank, and tried to murder Nobu in cold blood. He's fallen from grace. Season 3 will probably be about him redeeming himself somehow.

Dark_Tzitzimine posted:Superman's rebirth is somehow connected to Darkseid, and includes Darkseid attempting to corrupt him in some sort of astral plane. Lois will be important to this subplot. Go full Dune and have Superman commune with the genetic memories of his people. While communing with the Kryptonian projenitors of the Codex it becomes clear that several of them followed Darkseid and are trying to get Kal-El to follow him to. Darkseid corrupted many of the ancient Kryptonian astronauts, and that's why their civilization withdrew to their home planet and turned inward.

Problem- that has way more to do with Logan than this Rita does with Rita. He's got the hair and facial hair and he's got the claws. And his unique color on his dumb jumpsuit is yellow. And Logan has a history of going without costumes in the comics. So, yeah, not an accurate comparison. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

The difference is I don't think they'll really dwell on Atlantis being isolated and more about the aftermath of coming together in Justice League (maybe have Black Manta as a dude trying to steal artifacts or whatever).

I actually meant that Krypton cut off the colonies and space was abandoned due to Darkseid tainting the colonies. Because if you've got Kryptonians loving around in the yellow sunlight and you're looking to rule everything, it's probably smart to go ahead and try and coopt them or isolate them away from you.

Either way you could say Darkseid's presence brings out the "best" in people.  That reminds me of (I have no memory of what issue/story I read this in but mid 90s or so) how 100% of the employees and guards in the mega-ruthless prison system in Darkseid's empire are people who escaped from his prisons and were then offered a job, thrilled to pass along everything they went through.

There's a lot of monarch drama and ocean fantasy.

He already snapped offscreen, before the film even began. Well not before the film, he snapped on screen while hugging that little girl and giving Superman the death eyes. It's cool because you see the birth of the Batman (when his parents die and he falls into the cave) followed immediately by his second birth as crazy rear end in a top hat Batman.

It was especially odd to see John C. Reilly do a grounded role for the first time in a decade or so. I'll keep my fingers crossed for Peter Serafinowicz and Ralph Ineson.

I believe that post is talking about "offscreen" as it relates to the film Justice League. Dawn of Justice gets the "what does Batman look like on his darkest, worst possible day" scenario out of the way so that when Darkseid comes a-calling, Batman can credibly resist him. That'd be in line with the comics, too; it's been a pretty common recurring theme among the Grant Morrison DC stuff even as far back as his JLA run that Batman's got the wiles and the mental fortitude to outmaneuver Darkseid and his servants over the long game -- and sometimes it's a very long game.

We definitely saw Superman snapping on screen in Man Of Steel.bring back old gbs posted:lmao its the american coronation street And now that the kids who watched the first series are adults, they are re-releasing the toys. The site disallow hotlinking, so I think this is the one you meant to post:  By extrapolating this chart, I predict we will get a completely nude Wolverine next year. Now you know why an R rating is necessary.
