Killing thousands of brown people in Latin America is what the United States has been doing for ages so it makes sense it'd be in Suicide Squad 2. Interesting the discussion popped up right after someone linked a video about Henry Kissinger since he really got that ball rolling.

Interesting the discussion popped up right after someone linked a video about Henry Kissinger since he really got that ball rolling. right now seems to be the moment for really nihilistic despair when it comes to American empire. in some ways, an American despairing about the damage the US does can come across as really self-serving and obnoxious. I'd be really curious if SS2 threads that needle in a compelling way. this discussion is definitely motivating me to go see it for sure.

Unless Kissinger is 200 years old, I think you might be forgetting some things that happened before he was around.

The stuff in the film is referencing Cold War interventions. The capital city of the fictional country was founded by escaped Nazis.

Dapper_Swindler posted:Yeah. That poo poo was surreal because you kinda have that moment of “holy poo poo these dudes really are that sad and dumb”. Out of bile curiosity I checked his Twitter again last night and one of his more recent tweets is a declaration of victory that Netflix He-Man (a show he, by his own admission doesn’t actually give a poo poo about because he’s literally too old to be nostalgic for the 80s show) is bad because… one of the actors in it blocked him on Twitter because he was clearly harassing them. Class act all around. A man within reaching distance of his old age pension.

It's weird to see all these attempts to bring a complex worldview to McIntosh when he's just a dweeb who thinks any depiction of violence for any reason is inherently evil. It's literally the only thing he talks about.

Back to covering 3 episodes after a long stretch of only two at a time in this episode of Bizarre Podcast: Dogs Must Die looking at Oingo Bingo and both Anubis parts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-d69z7HJCo Hey General Ironicus, I know you lurk this thread! Where the heck are the rest of those Tourist Trapped episodes? I googled it, looked on Player FM, and Wear Casts and I got nothing.

There’s only the one. We pretended it was the 1st anniversary special as a bit and I try not to break kayfabe when I talk about it. Considered bringing it back for the Galactic Starcruiser at Disney World, but the FAQ isn’t as funny as I hoped.

I get why Jeremy never leaves the safe space of his piss basement and has his alleged wife go out into the world and do everything for him now. The dude is deathly afraid of everything and will have a panic attack over.

Interesting the discussion popped up right after someone linked a video about Henry Kissinger since he really got that ball rolling. The problem is that it’s all pinned on one woman being evil, instead of systematic rot throughout the government, and when she crosses a clear moral line the rest of mission control knocks her out and takes over. And they suffer no serious punishment for it! That is a thing that…does not happen in real life.

Pants Donkey posted:I mean their CO was rescued by them, and mission lied to them and said to kill them all to save him. This is brought up later in the movie when it’s revealed the whose operation is a farce designed to protect the USA’s image and bury secrets of war crimes. I don’t think that absolves it, but it at least ties into the USA and its history of regime change. Yeah, it clearly doesn't support American interventionism or anything like that, but I wouldn't blame anyone who found it tacky to use that stuff as the backdrop for a comedy superhero flick, especially when it doesn't really have anything that interesting or novel to say on the subject. Films still fairly entertaining.

Honestly considering how tepid the blockbuster space is about that sort of thing, to some extent saying "actually the US are absolute monsters who dump their dirty projects on regimes they propped up for decades" at all could well be novel for a lot of the audience. Admittedly I can't be too hard on Gunn and the rest of the team for the poo poo luck that their movie would land less than a month out from honest to god US sabre rattling towards Cuba again, because I think the timing is more bothersome to a lot of folk than borrowing from that aesthetic at all.

ZenMasterBullshit posted:6 is 2/3rds Dog poo poo an 1/3rd "Good as RE5". I think it's roughly 2/5ths really tedious setpieces that don't complement the gameplay and 3/5ths the greatest third-person shooter ever made.  e: "As good as RE5" is also pretty high praise considering RE5 is one of the finest co-op games ever made.

I've been playing through the RE series for the last year or so (started during 2020, took a break after starting Code Veronica; got back into it a month or two ago, and I just started RE7 yesterday). Looks like he covered the Outbreak games, which I skipped over. From the bit of that section I watched (because I don't want to watch the whole thing), he just played it in single-player, but I know that people have gotten multiplayer setup for it via emulation (there was a channel I found on Twitch that was streaming it a while ago). On the other hand, it looks like he didn't cover the light-gun games (Umbrella Chronicles and Darkside Chronicles), which I did play through Dolphin.JordanKai posted:Me when Noah Caldwell-Gervais says Resident Evil: Code Veronica is bad -> Me when Noah Caldwell-Gervais says Resident Evil 6 is bad: I found RE6 to just be bland and kind of dull than offensively bad. I like that each campaign is kind of styled differently from one another, but it's not something . I didn't care for Code Veronica when I was done with it, but then I played RE0, and I thought, "drat, maybe I was too hard on Code Veronica."

JordanKai posted:"As good as RE5" is also pretty high praise considering RE5 is one of the finest co-op games ever made. imo RE6 at the best of times is somewhere in the range of the better part of 4's early game and in it's worst parts about as bad as the end game of 5. I don't really get 4 being held up as the pinnacle of the series tho so keep that in mind. Not sure if I'll go see what his uh almost 8 hours of opinions entail but if nothing else 6's story and tone are a bit janktown so I could see him being bored by it.
