Comic book movies for babies. You shouldn't be allowed to watch them anymore after age 15.

Pretty telling that it's only dudebros who "hate" super heroes, and every other person on earth recognizes them as the same thing as Gods, book characters, cool myths and stuff, and also good for what they are.

It is getting rave reviews but most of the praise seems to be about how woke it is and how it is better than the average Marvel movie. I'm guessing it will be fine.

every single marvel movie that comes out has two weeks of Best Marvel Movie Ever and then after a few months people are unable to remember said movie

coincidentally, the last time there were good non-R comic movies was in 2008, so 15 years seeing them then are now the prime demographic target for the poo poo being shoveled out there

he's crazy good at martial arts and apparently stays in character during the entire production so maybe his reputation for being a complete lunatic wasn't helped by prison

but yeah it's a shame he hasn't been in another big budget action movie since


e: looks like he was in the expendables 3 so yaay

When I say " Joker is queer in Suicide Squad" I am not saying "Joker sucks dick". I am saying Joker has to be queer and not heteronormative because he is a reflection of Batman and Batman's super power is " heteronormativity" in this specific media.

Batman in those movies is basically if Peter Thiel was a Spartan from 300. The Joker is a white trap artist.

whenever a movie, tv show, etc. gets hype and good reviews from people prioritizing its politics over its entertainment value, i read this Orwell essay from 1941 and remind myself that this has always been the reaction of a sick, deranged society
