It was always questionable, I suppose. If Marvel had attempted to bypass Peter Parker-Spider-Man with any derivative characters I'm certain Sony would probably taken them to court as being too similar to the IP they had the rights to. It's sort of like the Mutant X fiasco where Fox/Marvel got into it because even though they were all original characters, they shared the name of a Marvel title despite having NOTHING to do with that title.

One More Fat Nerd posted:I can't remember if it's a novelization or that the movie was based on a book, but the novel form of The Godfather has a long subplot about a woman with an abnormally large vagina, and her difficulties finding a man who uh, fits properly. The book for Jaws barely even deals with the shark, it's mostly about Chief Brody's wife having an affair with the oceanographer guy.

That's the deal yeah, Sony gets anything new created in Spider-Man. Fox's X-men deal was the same. Any new X-Men came under Fox's control too.

How does that work with comic book villians? For example: Sony own spiderman, but do they own Kraven the Hunter, who was if I remember correctly a primarily Spiderman villian. Can Marvel use Kraven given that he is a Marvel character who most likely appeared in other publications vs other heroes at some time or another, or do SOny go "Nup, he is a mainly Spiderman villain, so you can't use him to fight Iron Man or whoever?

Marvel’s relationship with Sony was never as combative as it was with Fox so they didn’t test things like that. Spider-Man is in a pretty rare position where his villains have pretty much stayed his villains too. But on the Fox side Marvel did argue that Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch, despite being mutants and Magneto’s children at the time, were more closely related with the Avengers. They sort of won the argument since they ended up being able to use them, although Fox was allowed too. On the other hand Kang, although primarily seen as an Avengers villain, is with the Fantastic Four right’s because he debuted there.

Phanatic posted:In Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time there's a really overly-long subplot where one of the characters realizes that the same gunpowder that makes fireworks work could be turned into a weapon and starts figuring out how to cast bronze cannon, despite the fact that the series also involves a whole shitload of wizards who even if they're not very strong could easily manage to conjure a spark that would ignite gunpowder. In the Wheel of Time, essentially no one knows how fireworks work at all, other than the extremely secretive guild that makes them. Mat only figures it out because he steals one and nearly blows himself up. Plus, most of the enemy forces aren't wizards, and cannons that appear in magic windows all over the battlefield will wreck poo poo.

Bypassing wizards being able to detonate gunpowder at will by opening portals to fire cannons through is freakin rad. Assuming the portal wizards have a way of signalling the gunners to know when to fire?

Kruller posted:In the Wheel of Time, essentially no one knows how fireworks work at all, other than the extremely secretive guild that makes them. Mat only figures it out because he steals one and nearly blows himself up. Uh, no. Mat "figures it out" because a former guild member who he rescued after the guild tried to kill for operating without a guild license first gives him a bunch of fireworks as a reward (which he then deliberately blows up) and then tells him "hey, maybe it'd be useful for this Last Battle you and your friends keep talking about if you found someone who knows how to cast big bronze church bells." She's working on building cannon (and grenades) well before Mat is. She knows how they work. She knows there are wizards who can set her fireworks off at a glance, because she travels and hangs out with them. And they don't even use the "open portal, fire cannon, close portal" trick until the last battle, they are used well before this during the battle in Caemlyn without the portal trick. The special vulnerability of these weapons in this universe, where they could be blown the hell up by even the weakest wizard within eyesight, is never remarked upon by anyone at any time.

Most people think the wizards are myth, theve been culled almost to extinction. Cannon would have a massive impact on the world, i cant believe you are stepping up on this bro . smdh

Saw the new Halloween today and I have some issues. They're all standard slasher flick things but here they are. So Laurie opted to become a paranoid shut in prepper and make a bunker to hold up in. Okay cool I can get behind that. Except her house had windows on the ground floor and I didn't see any bars. Clutter everywhere which would provide hiding spaces for Michael A mannequin room on the second floor Closet doors everywhere to hide in A safe room that could just be broken into by someone pushing a kitchen island really hard And when they went to hold up there she shut off every light in the house while turning on floodlights outisde. Which makes it easier to see if someone is standing outside and looking in but also makes it easier for them to hide in your clutter or mannequin room. Each room in the house had a security gate that she shut after searching it for the murderer. gently caress it batten down every hatch. You'll either secure him in a room where the only exit is making a loud noise and breaking something or trap him in a hallway where he can't move At the end he's trapped in the basement and can't get out. But instead of shooting him a few more times they just decide to set the house on fire and walk away? Shoot the bitch drat you

She's working on building cannon (and grenades) well before Mat is. Literally every weapon and person in these books could be "blown the hell up" by basically every wizard. Like that fear of magic is one of the key plot points in the books and why they carry out the magical equivalent of forced labotomies on any magic-using men before they go crazy and start blowing everyone up with or without the presence of gunpowder

In Watchmen, they had pirate comics instead of superhero comics. IIRC the first issues of Superman were published but they failed to gain a market because superheroes were real.

My grandmother had her first child aged 25 and her eldest grandchild was born when she was just past 43. What bugs me more about Halloween is that in the original Michael was six when he killed his sister, but 15 years later Tony Moran is credited as "Michael (aged 23)".
