Eric Cantonese posted:I'm only 2 episodes in and I'm already a little sick of the Freddy character. I hope it doesn't fall into this constant formula of having Freddy not evolve and gently caress something else up in a very predictable way because they can't think of another way to move the plot along. I’m about the same length and yeah hopefully not but i suspect he’ll get Ritchied at some point soon anyways didn’t know it was a spinoff of his movie, forgot about the movie

patty jenkins can't direct action to save her loving life why would they give her a Star Wars movie

yeah the action scenes have already been storyboarded out long before the script is written or director cast, that way they can get started on the CGI

it's probably also just a matter of her being well known for being a DC movies director and Disney wanting to steal that "feather" from their cap

Wonder Woman at least has some interesting moments and setting even if Gal Godot is a particularly bad actress. its real problem is that it had no idea with the third act and falls back on the old superhero standard of "two people shooting beams of colorful light at each other"

it's very funny if you watch dr strange 2 because it's night and day which action sequences were conceived with raimi in the room vs which ones were already in motion when he came on

I haven't read that many actual comics outside of Batman stuff and the original Spider-Man run, my dad bought me the 1st Spider-Man omnibus as a kid and I read those a ton - there was definitely no shooting beams of colored light at each other for the webhead then

idk man comics on either side of the pacific had a strict schedule and page count to adhere to. it's probably a matter of parallel problem solving to think " I can draw one guy standing like this pretty quickly so if he's just doing something visually boring nonstop I can fart out a bunch of text and get to 8 pages by Friday"

I thought the first Wonder Woman movie was pretty good up until the bit where she suddenly discarded being clever and resourceful to solve problems, and instead just having the exact same powers as The Incredible Hulk to solve problems. I haven't seen the second one yet but it sounded like one of those "so bad its fun" movies.

It's also just a matter of being the first people to really do it. It was entertaining when I first saw it as a child but I've been watching people rip that style of fantasy fighting for 20 years now and it's just no longer that interesting, to me, to see a red beam hit a blue beam and then have them jockey for position for a bit until one overpowers the other. The way that Legion handles the encounters between Psychic mutants in the second and third season is vastly more visually interesting to me (i use this example because the first season, after killing it wrt this kind of stuff for must of the episodes, ends with two characters yelling and running at each other while engulfed in energy and it was wildly disappointing to me)

god they do the yelling while covered in ki fire and running at each other too. theres an argument to be made that the marvel movies are so popular because they introduced a bunch of anime tropes to a new generation
