While the Scorsese Joke movie won't be part of the DCEU or star Jared Leto, there are probably 3 planned movies that will be. Suicide Squad 2, Joker & Harley, and Gotham City Sirens.Mr. Flunchy posted:Clickbait writers have to This is how it feels after the whole Devin Faraci and Harry Knowles thing.

Inescapable Duck posted:Point there, though Star Trek did try to improve on that in later shows, Sisko's heritage comes up quite a lot in DS9. (One episode very specifically addresses the idea of black people in sci-fi with similar phrasing as you just used) DS9 is an outlier for Star Trek, and Star Trek as a whole an outlier for sci-fi, but its still pretty conventional.

FWIW I think Leo would perfectly fine as Joker. Pesci would have made a good Penguin back in the day too. I'm having fun picturing Scorcese's usual band of actors populating the Batman universe. A younger DeNiro as Dent. Frank Vincent as Falcone.

That first part is astoundingly stupid as past addiction doesn't preclude someone from fitness and a huge amount of former users actually run toward the gym. The second part is also very moronic as 40s is not old, especially in light of 40s being as far removed from a man's physical prime as he is in his late teens and early 20s and to speak nothing of many men being capable of getting and staying in shape well into older age.

It's not at all a secret that some folks work hard to get the shirtless movie body, and some folks juice, but most all of them do things that are not the perfect picture of health to get the shape for the shoot. The bodies themselves are as much a fiction as the movie they're in. Hell, I feel like this discussion was already had 10 pages ago.

In your late teens, your body is flooded with testosterone and you start bulking up when you get a gym membership. This does not happen in your 40s. It doesn't even happen in your 30s. Which is why even in shape 30 year olds don't look as good as they did when they were younger Those older men are on steroids too.

The bodies themselves are as much a fiction as the movie they're in. It's a false dichotomy. The people on steroids also work hard. That's the benefit of doing steroids, that you can. That a 40-50 year old man can hit the gym as often as RDJ (or Stallone, for a more extreme case) does. I'm 30 now, and working out and recovering is a lot harder than it was when I was in my 20s. I can't wait to be well off enough to start doing steroids. sassassin posted:Tony Stark uses steroids. Absolutely no doubt, yes he does. So does Evans, who was probably on synthol to boot.

It's stupid as poo poo and deserves to be pointed out as so. It really isn't, because gaining a bunch of lean muscle has a very small window in which you can do it naturally. It's from when you're in your late teens through to your late twenties or early 30s if you've got good genes. After that, you can maintain, but it's too late to start, because the body just isn't what it was, in a very tangible, literal sense.

You can still get in good shape if you're starting at over 30 but alcoholism permanently fucks with your hormones so that's a double whammy. Tony Stark is a rich playboy whose father worked on the Captain America steroid super-man project or something so he'll have all the best hookups. No blowing a guy behind the tree in the gym car park for a baggy of unlabelled vials for Iron Man.

Nice double-dip lmao which ignores completely your allegation that alcoholism will blow out your knees and break your back, or some poo poo, nevermind a person's exercise routine, diet, and literally everything else about their life during that time, before, and after. I mean, if what you say is true about testosterone levels, the alcoholism would have nothing to do with his body. Also cool anecdote about your recovery time kicking your rear end as though that proves something. A man in his 50s on testosterone replacement taking him to normal levels who also adheres to x y and z can get RDJ's bod, forget steroids. cvnvcnv fucked around with this message at 02:44 on Oct 1, 2017 |
