Doctor Spaceman posted:SodaStream. Oh, yeah that makes a lot more sense. Nessus posted:Oh yeah? Can you elaborate? My money's on the Blackfoot guy. I don't know what you're trying to imply or if that was just a painfully unfunny attempt at humor, but the movie was one big self-congratulatory pat on the back for a distinctly American intersectionality concealing a poorly acted, overly simplistic, pro-war cashgrab. The only problem with Steve's Not-Howling Commandos were that they were just another distraction from the movie's interventionist message.

Nessus posted:See I was figuring this was going to be about the Skeleton Warriors, this is at least somewhat more interesting. So do you think people are desperate to have interventionist fantasies validated or what Pretty much. It's okay to bring war as long as we're trying to prevent the use of Weapons of Mass Destruction, and as for world peace, we just need men and women of all colors and creeds to come together under neoliberal Western hegemony

Jesus it's kind of reassuring that no matter how cynical and pessimistic I thought I was there's a guy who saw Wonder Woman and came away with that message

Maybe I'm the only one here, but can we take the WW discussion to the movie thread? I'd rather keep this thread for arguments about Batman/Elmer Fudd and other comics and let everyone argue about the movie over there.

purple death ray posted:You know DC made a good movie when it takes goons a whole month to decide why they hate it It's a movie that's as pretty as it is bland and has nothing interesting to say about anything and whose only goal is to introduce the starring character to a broader audience. You know, a marvel movie. It's not bad by any means, in fact it's great at what it sets out to do. It's just not an interesting movie.

Because they are discussing it in the movie threads here and in the movie forum. You're trying way too hard to make this as "you just want to SILENCE my CRITICISM" as opposed to the fact that this is the thread about the comics and there is a dedicated movie thread. (This same happens with cartoons and video games as well for the record.) The vast majority of the same people post in both threads, it isn't a large subforum.

In other news I spent last night reading the first two thirds of Morrison's Batman run through Final Crisis and the coming back to life / announcing Batman Inc. Holy gently caress. I had bounced off of it a couple times but this time it just clicked with me. It's so good. It was a bit jarring to jump to Final Crisis right in the middle but I enjoyed that too. If I hadn't read the fourth world stuff recently though... I'm looking forward to finishing and then re-reading it so that I'm able to really get into the details rather than just keep up with the story.

fadam posted:Yeah guys, please only post about the Wonder Woman movie if you liked it. Dude shut the gently caress up. You know that's not what I said. I don't give a flying gently caress if you liked it or not. I liked it. If you didn't that's fine. I just don't want to see this thread turn into a loving goon argument free-for-all when this is a thread for DC COMIC BOOKS and not a DC MOVIE.

It took me a couple of reads for it all to really sink in, especially RIP. I really enjoyed it though!

If you are feeling like your hot takes are being silenced, even in the movie thread, feel free to create a thread about it. But yea, there is a movie thread specifically designed for this kind of takes

I don't think anything as wide-spanning as Batman to Final Crisis to ROBW will ever be topped for me by a major comic book company. I still reread it annually.
