Just gotta keep walking down that road.

The Japanese name for "Bowsette" (クッパ姫) is at the top of twitter's global trending list with over a million tweets right now, completely crushing every other topic. The sheer volume of fanart (and porn) created in the last couple days must be immeasurable, I'm not sure I've ever seen anything like it.

I hope something positive comes out of it.

So Bane is meant to be like, a joke villain right? I’ve never seen the third one but I can’t imagine that voice is meant to be used in any serious capacity

Bane is one of Batman's most dangerous and competent villains. Tom Hardy just does a voice because of the mask.

Well, that aligns with the vibes I was getting. Which was, like, "normal" kinda vibes.
Me, playing DQ11: Man, why is it so hard to find crafting materials? People kept saying that you never need to visit the shops but I don't have enough of anything to make anything!

Me, 20 hours later: The map shows harvest points? With labels to tell me what will be gathered, and points I haven't visited are clearly marked??

He's like a mirror of Batman, who does a silly voice that makes him sound like an oaf in those films.

Christopher Nolan’s Batman movies were pretty good but imho they probably would have worked better just as straight crime dramas without the goofy costumes and voices. The Batman aspects added nothing for me personally. Wouldn’t have made the mega millions though.

I don’t hate Batman, I just think it’s played da gently caress out like every other comic book movie. The Burton films were truly great and I think embraced the perfect balance of moodiness and camp apropos to the series. Nolan’s take is all right but I get the feeling he just wanted to make a Michael Mann film and felt weighed down by the comic book elements rather than truly embracing them.

Don't forget that the final Bane voice was a last-minute change from the original voice, which lots of people found so muffled as to be incomprehensible in the trailers.

I learned about this Bowsette thing today and while I started off confused, it made sense to me as I have always called Princess Peach Princess Toadstool. Just like I have always called Dr Eggman Dr Robotnik.
