Jimbot posted:My trigger for the past decade has been "I could care less" when they meant to use "I couldn't care less". If being said mockingly, that their dgaf is the best you're going to get, it actually makes complete sense. If said seriously, it leans into being incorrect.

Sir Kodiak posted:The Watchmen movie was made after it was clear that, to the surprise of many, nuclear deterrence actually worked. Turns out we didn't need a squid, so neither did the movie. Ronald Regan said something to the effect of, world peace would require an alien threat, something to squarely put us all in the same boat. Despite all the Nixon stuff, I always saw the squid as a huge Regan fingerprint and the loss of it in the film gave away a lot of the flavor of the times of the story and its creation, and the sheer weirdness would have been lovely to see.

BiggerBoat posted:Rises has a lot of problems and is the weakest of the trilogy but there's still a lot to like about it. I just don't get how Begins established Bruce using darkness, surprise and diversions and the sequels almost entirely forget about that. BEGINS took place in Gotham City, unlike the sequels. Also, Bruce was Batman for a mere matter of months. It's all very baffling when you look at the whole.

BiggerBoat posted:What? They're all set in Gotham City. Gotham of BEGINS is instantly recognizable as Gotham City, and that city vanished for the sequels. It was dark, moody, dirty, and befitting of a vigilante who stalks unseen. When the city went away, so did all of Batman's tact. He left true Gotham and relocated to the rebranded Chicago for the sequels, and it's obvious that he doesn't belong there.

BiggerBoat posted:Oh. So you're just talking about filming locations. Agreed the Gotham in Begins felt the most like "real Gotham". As the trilogy progressed it just started to look like "generic American City", so yeah. I thought you were saying the stories weren't primarily set in Gotham. Yeah, I'm saying "Generic American City" made Batman soft and weak whereas in real Gotham he was real Batman.

I like SUICIDE SQUAD. It's kinda crap but it builds a heck of a world, the Joker stuff is entertaining, and Idk, looking to things to be good and make sense in this life is a policy which should take more siestas.

Timby posted:Ang Lee's Hulk is basically a fever dream of excessive style, and it's great. As for Leterrier's The Incredible Hulk, I still think it's consistently underrated in the Marvel Studios lineup (it's easily my second-favorite of the first phase behind Iron Man, Edward Norton is great as Banner and both Tim Roth and William Hurt are having the time of their lives, the only real weak link in the cast is Tyler). Roth vs Hulk is stellar, and tells a far greater story with the action than anything else in the MCU to my immediate recollection.

Burkion posted:Skin color and facial features, on the flip side, do not. Yes they do, in comic books. Same coin, you could argue that "side effects" then could be permanent but comics are a window into a world, using things we know as a frame of reference then reshaping the world into the fantastic. Side effects are side effects, but the range of what they could be is outlandish. It adds up. Also, merely recoloring his face doesn't visually tell the story when it would appear that Frank merely painted his face or the book itself is misprinted. The execution is poor because the idea is fundamentally and fatally flawed, not for the comic logic staying true to itself.

Supposedly, since a Black Adam spinoff is also on the works the Rock won't be involved at all with Shazam! now. Crowds want to see The Rock in the big money match, not sell and job to some kid fresh out of development.

Snowman_McK posted:RDJ is a lot buffer than a former alcoholic in their 40s should be. What the gently caress is this? That first part is astoundingly stupid as past addiction doesn't preclude someone from fitness and a huge amount of former users actually run toward the gym. The second part is also very moronic as 40s is not old, especially in light of 40s being as far removed from a man's physical prime as he is in his late teens and early 20s and to speak nothing of many men being capable of getting and staying in shape well into older age.

Nice double-dip lmao which ignores completely your allegation that alcoholism will blow out your knees and break your back, or some poo poo, nevermind a person's exercise routine, diet, and literally everything else about their life during that time, before, and after. I mean, if what you say is true about testosterone levels, the alcoholism would have nothing to do with his body.  Also cool anecdote about your recovery time kicking your rear end as though that proves something. A man in his 50s on testosterone replacement taking him to normal levels who also adheres to x y and z can get RDJ's bod, forget steroids. cvnvcnv fucked around with this message at 02:44 on Oct 1, 2017 |
