I feel like the only person who honestly liked The Dark World a lot. It's better than Thor 1 in my opinion and I might have actually like it better than Iron Man 3.

I went and saw Thor 2 with some friends and really liked it. It made me go back and watch Thor 1 since I hadn't yet; it was pretty alright too.

Because the idea of Superman pretending to kill people, horrifying the entire world just to pull a "nope, totally was joking just to prove a point on how I DON'T kill like these tools" is disturbing on a level that killing Zod to save a family is not.

If these are the two out of context pages about laser lobotomies that I've seen floating about I thought the point was "dark edgy heroes suck and are lovely and unfun" not "killing is bad".

I did see it, with the animation that makes bad claymation look smooth and nice, toy cameos being wrongly called cast of characters because Batman is Batman is Batman and you know Batman, and the no laughs.

Plenty of stupid in me but I am lacking whatever makes bad children's media good.

What are your thoughts on Wonder Woman (tm), Flash (tm), and Aquaman (tm) appearing in DC(c)'s Batman (tm) v Superman (tm): Dawn of Justice (tm)?

Not good if their mere appearance and our previous knowledge of them is all we're given to work with, but it actually seems like they may be the new Amber, Rocket, and Blondie to our Sweet Pea vs Baby Doll, which is to say far more artistic than given credit for.

Leon Trotsky 2012 posted:

AoS borrows some actors and reacts to the stuff that goes on in the MCU. The MCU doesn't really react with the show in any meaningful way.

The actress is complaining that the DC TV shows are explicitly barred from using characters or mentioning events from the DC movies. Plus the shows are actively being hamstrung by being forced to kill off or disappear characters who are going to be in the movies.

She's not saying that AoS has a huge impact on the movies, she's saying that the show is allowed to take stuff from the MCU and it doesn't hurt the MCU. So, she wants DC to allow them to do the same instead of making them kill off characters or forbidding them from mentioning Superman or Batman.

Edit: I still can't believe they had a show called "SuperGirl" about Superman's cousin and they had to just keep saying "my cousin" or show a glimpse of a boot, because they weren't allowed to mention Superman or show the full costume or actor.

Also, Superman only communicates via text message. lol

Did the show have a fight scene consisting entirely of reactions from everyone else narrating the whole thing?

...instead of squandering them by looting tainted pirate treasures. Man, I want to see this movie as well. No one in the Justice League understands why Superman keeps getting weirdly aggressive and intense every time Aquaman mentions a sunken galleon or something. "Sunken pirate treasures are YOUR JOB, Aquaman, this is NOT a good use of my powers," he almost-shouts, before storming out of the room.

The Flash turns on the tv and Pirates of the Caribbean is playing. Superman breaks out in a cold sweat.

MGS2 is prescient as gently caress and I can hardly believe it's a pre 9/11 game.

A few years after it came out Kojima or someone started talking about it in a post-mortem and apparently the original name for Metal Gear Solid 2 was Metal Gear Solid III.

Also it made absolutely no sense to me as an idiot child but when I saw the cutscenes and stuff again a few months ago it all clicked in place.

No, like 90% of the time it's "I went into the movie expecting X. When X didn't happen, I couldn't accept why it didn't happen, so I called it bad".

Like there's no internal contradiction to this iteration of Batman (an older, jaded dude who is clearly suffering from PTSD) killing dudes who get in his way. It's just straight up "(my) Batman just doesn't do that!"

This Batman isn't My Batman because My Batman has a difficult time getting explosives away from him.
