Alkydere posted:Um...no. I've literally avoided anything about the book due to apathy besides it looked like generic "HAY GUYS LET'S WRITE BOOK ABOUT GAMES, IT BE POPULAR RITE? YUK YUK." stuff. It's young adult literature. Everyone complaining about it has overthought the genre. Jesus, this stuff should be compared to Percy Jackson, Harry Potter, and Twilight. If you want to reach for another generation, compare it to The Hobbit and The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe. It's all flawed and silly. Read adult books if you aren't a child.

Timecube is worth a 30 second glance because in about 5 seconds it's obviously completely insane and the other 25 is just looking around and laughing. If you attempt to go from that to actually understanding it then you need to seek medical attention.

I feel it's more 5 seconds to recognize the insanity, 25-30 seconds of staring in disbelief then up to about 5-10 minutes of "My head hurts but I can't stop giggling" as you try to read the site. Is that site still up? I mean, it was early, early internet.

Timecube is like poetry mixed with theoretical physics tossed into a blender with some explosive LSD.

Phone posted:It's from a satirical jewish magazine from a decade ago quote:Roseanne: It’s like a Jewish woman. And She’s dressed up like Hitler. And he’s in drag. Hitler. And he’s baking cookies. And he’s really proud of them. But he’s also looking off into the horizon because he has a dream. It was for Heeb magazine. It was their Germany issue. And who better a symbol of Germany than Hitler? "Chill guys, it was just a joke, har har. I'm so edgy" I wonder what the joke will be for some satirical media for black people? Coasting through the most black populated part of Chicago dressed as the Blues Brothers shouting the n-word over an over sized loudspeaker? Oh so edgy SocketWrench fucked around with this message at 06:29 on Apr 1, 2018 |

Evil Fluffy posted:Honestly, anyone who thinks Stark is in any way excusable for his actions after watching Civil War is a lost cause. His reaction to meeting a mother whose son died as collateral damage when the Avengers literally saved the world from Stark's own horrible creation was "hey the Avengers need to be under the authority of others" and turned to the people who thought nuking New York City in response to an alien invasion was an acceptable course of action. I never understood why giving the Avengers public accountability was such a bad thing. For all that people complain about rising authoritarianism they sure like the idea of unaccountable supermen running around. Before anyone asks, no I would not put them under the authority of the CURRENT U.S government but once a sane one appeared.

Gyges posted:The problem is that Tony Stark is actually problematic is the go to, eternal plot of every Marvel movie he's in. He's the hero, then it turns out he's hosed up, and he learns something to be better, and then they forget all about it until the next movie resets the cycle. They really should have had Cap tear Stark apart verbally in Civil War over how almost everything wrong in their world is his fault.

The problem is that all these unaccountable superman tend to make way better decisions than any government. These people would be used for wars over bullshit pretty much instantly. Plus it's difficult for me to divorce the MCU with the MU, so coming from the standpoint where every mutant who ever visits the future ends up seeing their race in Auschwitz, I wouldn't recommend anyone putting their name on any list.

The vast difference in power scales between characters kind of make the conflict in Civil War dumb anyway. Creating a sense of accountability for people like Hulk, Thor, Stark, Vision is a lot more important than for like, more mundane people like Cap or Hawkeye.
