Lawrence as Sue would be just ok but my ideal casting for Sue and Reed would be an older (40's) couple. I hate the idea of yet another young take on the F4 which would just be ultimate F4.

30 is plenty old for any of the fantastic 4. Probably too old for Johnny

these games have an unfortunate streak of having a woman get her rear end beat and then the man who did it either tells her its no big deal she tried to take him on because lol or that he'll do the thing she wanted and he got in her way for her

i do appreciate that x has significantly less boob than 2011 did tho

It gets better in the third game. It's been nice seeing them go from every woman having no clothes and porn star bodies in 9 to being pretty good about most of that kind of poo poo by 11.

little over an hour into x, currently shipping cassie x d'vorah

e dang i just got owned

e2 it's just very sad that although she seems to be a main protagonist, cassie cage has only won one fight in the entire 1hr30min i've watched so far. but she's lost at least 6 or 7

e3 i sometimes wish there were like captions with the names of all the people who show up in this because there are a lot of characters i don't recognize!

the unfortunate part of not playing it myself with this mk x is sometimes big moments disappear, like scorpion comes to get quan chi (chumping sonya because lol women, naturally) and then a big scorpion v johnny fight is about to happen through an extensive qte sequence but then it just cuts to afterwards like nothing happened in the youtube vid, unlike the mk 2011 recording :tired:

I'm not loyal to anything, General... except the dream.
The worst parts of the singleplayer mode in all those games, and both Injustice games, are the bits where people get into fights for really no reason just so they can make it a proper length chapter.

Though, admittedly, I did like the sort of pay off it gets in Mortal Kombat 11, which I'm now going to play again.

You should check a different video cause I've seen one that has only the fights cut out, and keeps the qte stuff.

I kinda wish (well, not kinda) they'd gotten Bridgett Wilson to redub all of Ronda Rousey's dialogue when they brought her in for the MK movie skin pack because I was replaying the story mode and Rousey is even worse than I'd remembered and they already had Tricia Helfer. Even if she's busy find, I don't know, Kari Wahlgren or Grey DeLisle or somebody. Actual actors.

Rousey was one of the hottest acts in the world when they signed the deal, so I get why they did it, and I would not be surprised they they legally were not able to do that. My guess is she probably had a pretty specific contract with them. But God, I'm right there with you. I only use that one skin just to improve the voice acting.

This is just escalation from when the Joker became Iran's ambassador to the UN to prevent Batman from being able to punch him. Can Batman bring himself to punch Jesus?

Batman feels like he's probably a militant atheist who's just insufferable to talk to about religion.

They actually had a big story on how Batman was a confirmed atheist (despite having once hung out with an angel and everything) like it was a story that matters, which itself is a walk back from something Mark Waid did in that oversized JLA special he did with Bryan Hitch.

A noxious contingent of followers, though, didn’t just advocate for the movie, but also used social media to attack people who were critical of Snyder or their cause. Maybe they hoped to silence dissenters, or maybe they were just trolls being trolls. In any case, film journalists with negative takes reported getting swarmed with insults and even threats. “Unfortunately, I think a lot of online fandom and fandom culture is headed in this very toxic direction,” says Kayleigh Donaldson, who writes for Pajiba.com. It is especially strong from Snyder cut acolytes, she adds, perhaps because they respond misguidedly to the director’s tales of loner heroes in a hostile world. “I don’t get this from the Birds of Prey fans or the Shazam fans,” says Donaldson. “I got a little bit from Joker fans but nowhere near the same level.”
