Hemingway To Go! posted:What if they just didn't make any more dc comics movies and everyone stopped trying to make cinematic universes Me, personally, I love your suggestion Hemingway To Go!, but just to be safe let me run the idea past our studio executives and focus groups. Alright HTG!, I ran your idea by them, and they LOVED it, but they had a few suggestions... We're actually gonna make a ton more DC movies and try to make a huge cinematic universe.

Blind Sally posted:Superman is more like the Thor character, because he's basically a god come to Earth to be its protector and is bad at civilian disguises. Here's a fun article on how Thor is really the new Superman. http://news.nationalpost.com/arts/movies/cultural-lessons-of-2013-thor-is-the-new-superman

Randarkman posted:It always seemed to me that those priests knew perfectly well what an eclipse was in the movie, the commoners not knowing seems perfectly reasonable for a pre-modern society where the majority can't read or write and there is no organized system of universal schooling. Yeah, I got the distinct feeling that that was the point of it. The wives of the noblemen were practically yawning when the eclipse started.

My true intention was to shut down this retarded comics discussion. Comics are bad and so are movies based on them.

I mean for gently caress's sake. I don't think it's the webcam, I think it's that Max Landis is too dumb to provide proper lighting when trying to make rant videos at 4 in the morning.

Comfy Fleece Sweater posted:I hope women shut up in movies forever I too am mad that one of the coolest characters of the year (it is February) is a woman in a movie about a guy who's seeking revenge for his dead wife thus explaining why the world would be populated with fewer women in a thematic sense- because the woman he cared about is dead get it maaaan. Obviously there's no point to make that when you want a movie where virtually everyone has prison tattoos and murders people for money and revenge that you're automatically casting most of them as men. I am also very mad that the movie has a disabled as a major character, and many scenes demonstrating that this world is populated by a very diverse cast from all around the world including an entire act that happens overseas only I'm a giant racist so despite people being on a separate continent with their own culture I only judge them by the pigmentation of their skin, thus this movie is demonstrating a total lack of inclusion. To be fair I think Max meant it as more of a writer lesson, like if you're writing in Hollywood you HAVE to be thinking about these things. Grevling posted:Hangover universe meets Saw. I could watch Zach Galifianakis get tortured to death. Or a movie where people pretend to torture Zach Galifianakis.

Blue Star posted:How many more years of box office dominance do you think comic book movies have? Specifically the MCU? How many more years can this trend continue? Superheroes have dominated the medium of comic books for 3/4 of a century. Like, there used to be lots of soap opera comics and western comics and all that, but superheroes eventually overtook them all. This could very possibly end up happening to movies too.

Paladinus posted:He is not wrong. So? Who cares? Shall we start listing every movie that lacks racial diversity? How about non-binary genders? I'm not salty about it, but just because he pointed it out, doesn't mean I have to care. I really don't need movies needing to look like a University promo photo that shows their diversity. It's bad enough films are having to pander to Chinese audiences by including Chinese actors to offset the (apparent) lack of interest in female leads [see TFA vs. R1] I really don't need to see more film making by committee, just checking off boxes rather than doing anything interesting or entertaining.

I don't know what they fight but Jem doesn't so ergo they are not the same thing. Also Jem bombing isn't stopping Hasbro from attempting a cinematic universe! Using properties that have not tried to sell since the 1980's like MASK, Visionaries, Micronauts, it should be crap-tacular.
