I'll get more into detail later on. I like that he's still with the princess, but don't like what they did with Roxy.

BravestOfTheLamps posted:All that muscle talk and still no explanation how the Avengers are not fascist. Can you be a fascist if you don't give a gently caress about any nation or state? The Avengers are a collection of Autocrats, Anarchic-Libertarians, Philosopher Kings, Ideologues, and Mercenaries. All of them of course have hearts of gold, even if sometimes that heart is coated in tin, but none of them are fascist. Brother Entropy posted:civil war is the product you get when you make a story explicitly about politics but want to avoid any possible stance that could impact revenue Having read the comic attempt at being about politics, the version without real politics is infinitely better. McCloud posted:There's a moment when he gives a stupid speech and then everyone in shield divides into team good guys and team bad guys, thus undermining the point that sci fi CIA is toxic and full of assholes. Instead the morale becomes that these agencies must be vigilant because bad apples can sneak in and lead you astray, totally undercutting the point it's trying to make. The point was that SHIELD wasn't lead astray. It was ruined from almost the founding. The agency did not take the time to make sure they did not become a monster when carrying out their mission of fighting monsters. The original sin of inviting Hydra in happened almost immediately after the agency's founding when they when full operation paperclip. The speech was about uncovering the good apples left in the shipping container of rotten ones.

I would think that the defense angle for the Momoa rape joke would be that he was clearly talking about things that happen in GOT. Still not a very good defense and everyone else on the panel clearly isn't laughing their socks off at the hilarious joke. Still better than a sands of time defense for 6 years ago.

STAC Goat posted:I'm going to go out on a limb and predict there aren't THAT many people with a really hardened and passionate idea of who Aquaman is to make a big stink about a different interpretation. There's like 3 or 4 "distinct" takes on Aquaman in the comics, and I think only like one of them was cool enough to engender any sort of actual loyalty to the character. Which also means that fans of that version, which is the objectively best version, aren't likely at all to be up in arms about Not My Aquaman. Really, outside of idiots with no ability to critique something beyond Not My Superman/Batman, the same people who probably use Grimdark to write things off, Green Lantern and The Flash are the only DC properties with battle lines drawn between "correct" versions. And with the Lanterns there's really only one wrong version, and his name is Hal Jordan.

I thought Hal Jordan was okish as The Spectre after he died a semi-redemptive death. The problem was bringing him back and having him just be white bread as gently caress, boring ol' mega hero Hal Jordan.

You could introduce Hal as the most boring Green Lantern in the proposed DCU Flashpoint, follow it up with him being around in the Green Lantern Corps movie and then in Green Lantern 2, Green With Envy have him go full Parallax but get thwarted by our plucky heroes from the first Green Lantern movie.

Yakmouth posted:I'm actually surprised Parallax is apparently so popular a story. I remember it being horribly received at the time. didn't the writer receive death threats for what he did to Jordan? Hal Jordan went crazy and stopped being Green Lantern in early 1994. He didn't come back until 2004/5. Given the general age of posters here Hal Jordan wasn't the Green Lantern we "grew up with" or whatever. I know that outside of Super Friends and occasional appearances in other comics I never payed any attention to Green Lantern until Kyle was the only one. As a result we're not the long term smelly comic nerds angry at the change in our beloved Green Lantern in 1994. We're the long term smelly comic nerds angry at the change in our beloved Green Lantern in 2004. Also though, Emerald Twilight was doing something new and changing things for a new direction while Rebirth was largely about undoing that just because the writer was one of those long term smelly comic nerds from 1994. He also did the same thing with Barry Allen, and I'm sure others. Also reborn Hal learned nothing and was exactly the same as he was before he killed all his friends, tried to destroy time, sacrificed himself to save the Earth, and was then the divine aspect of vengeance. That seems like some poo poo that should have changed him, but nope, Hal's jaw is just too square for that poo poo to do anything but bounce off it. Lobok posted:This is my vote. Maybe expend all this creative energy on making Jordan a more interesting character. Surely he cannot be SO boring that he's unsalvageable or worse than any other square-jawed white guy who's helmed an action/adventure movie before. Hal Jordan is the Ur-square jawed white guy helming an action/adventure movie. He's whitebread personified, and the only stories he's ever been interesting in are the time he went super evil, the time he was the divine spirit of vengeance fighting to instead offer redemption, or when he was the stuffy old conservative he is only Green Arrow was using him a foil.
