Yes, the problem with endless sequels is that it was too many IPs Endgame cost 350 million to make, why is it not good?

To be fair the “cinematic universe” concept takes this poo poo to another level. And Endgame makes approximately 0 sense if you haven’t seen like 15 other films whereas some Nightmare on Elm Street sequel pretty stands alone.

American comics are just flat out inferior to manga, by a huge margin. There's breadth and depth of manga is crazy, you could read nothing but manga about the preparation and enjoyment of food and never run out. Meanwhile American comics are 80% superheroes, 15% sci-fi and fantasy, and 5% terrible memoirs written by 28 year olds about how they almost had sex in high school and were sad in college.

The Killing Joke is a great comic, so great that every comic I have attempted to read since has bored me.

Gripweed posted:5% terrible memoirs written by 28 year olds about how they almost had sex in high school and were sad in college. what, as opposed to the currently most popular genre of manga, which is boring virgin nerds who play too much games getting violently murdered and waking up in a video game world where they have five different wives at the least? i think they call it "isekai" which probably translates to "incel" in japanese american comics are boring and marvel barely gives a poo poo about them any more, any superheroes before the 2000s already have all their best stories to pull from for the movies, meaning that whoever is currently writing any captain america comics can just make it about loving nothing because nobody's going to read the comics that won't be integrated into the MCU. any heroes after the 2000s like Kickass can get a good first movie loosely based on the then-developing comic, and then a sequel nobody will care about. spit on my clit has a new favorite as of 19:36 on May 21, 2019 |

I can’t call the Fullmetal Alchemist movie good, per se, but it’s a fun watch. Delightfully japanese. In a fun way not a 12-year-old girl/1000-year-old succubus way. It’s better than Endgame.

We should just adopt neo-40s fashion forever. Swing dresses and faux military chic for everyone. Plus you’ll know who to avoid whenever you see a dude at the bar in a grey and jackboots.

It lost loads of money in theaters, but got enough of a cult following that it did well in DVD/Blu Ray sales to mostly recoup I think. Not well enough to get a sequel despite everyone involved seeming to be interested.

It was an amazing movie, shocked me too that it did so poorly. I think Urban was talking at one point about it being turned into a TV series but AFAIK it may be a long way off, if it happens at all

I'd be down with a sequel if they put Rob Schneider in it to tie it together with the better one.

These giant rear end implants that celebrities get now look monstrous. It is beyond me how anyone could see Kim Kardashian, Nicki Minaj,or Iggy Azelia's giant fake rear end and not think it looks like some sort of deformity.

I'm an rear end connoisseur, and I agree. Not a fan of the "giant rear end" trend in general. Having defined glutes that you get by working out is great, but they should be proportional to your body. And definitely not fake rear end implants.

No I don’t need a trainer. Yes I exercise. Yes I know how a leg press works. No I don’t have any fitness goals. Yes I have been squatting for a decade and failed at injuring myself the whole time.
