I always just figured the Joker was some no one who had some kind of vague, unfocused but not outright dangerous mental problems until Batman came about, and his insanity crystallized around that event. Like, maybe he was a bit unsettling before, kind of a loner, the kind of guy co-workers talk about behind his back, but not really noteworthy, and then one day he hears about a guy dressing up as a bat to fight crime and he just gets up and silently marches into the bathroom to slash his face up because I guess that's just what's happening now.

Batman v Superman's gonna have to be pretty fantastic to top Deadpool, as far as I'm concerned. Probably my favourite comic book movie so far.

Burkion posted:Yeah, as said above- and it's still ridiculous that out of all of the studios that have had Marvel properties, Elektra is the only attempt. Marvel does have Jessica Jones and Agent Carter, though. Also Agents of SHIELD, which has a lot of strong female characters. Yeah, they're not blockbuster movies, but they're out there.

HUNDU THE BEAST GOD posted:I admit to liking the smartassed Supergirl they have going on there, especially given historically what a non-character she is. I think the character is elevated by how good Melissa Benoist is in the role. Without her to sell the emotional core of the character, I could see it falling into the CW-esque melodrama that the DC shows court a bit too closely.

achillesforever6 posted:Plus now it all makes sense why I like the MCU because I'm the person who actually likes going to Applebees All comic book movies are McDonald's. The only difference is that some of them are McCafe, with that veneer of respectability you get from selling coffee and danishes instead of cheeseburgers and hot pies. But it's still McDonald's. Except Catwoman. Catwoman's the dumpster out back of a McDonald's.

Mordiceius posted:So is it bad that I can admit that DCU films are generally more skillfully made, but I just don't like them as much as MCU films? This is a weird thing to even think about, much less feel bad about. Like what you like. Despite what you seem to have gleaned from here, there's nothing really wrong with the MCU movies. They're not facile, homogeneous, or artless, they're just different, both from the DCU and from each other. Even the worst of them has something to recommend it. Who cares what you like? Are you worried Cinema Discusso bullies are going to beat you up and steal your lunch money?

Thor doesn't learn how to accept responsibility, he learns humility. In fact, by the time Thor 2 rolls around, Thor actively refuses his responsibilities as the heir of Asgard. EDIT: Also, Thor isn't the hero of Thor. Loki is. Phylodox fucked around with this message at 22:36 on Mar 28, 2016 |
