I was fine with Will pronouncing everything wrong but on today's show he said Toadstool when he meant Toad from the Mario series. This is not normal.

Toadstool is the name of that one specific one. Toad is what their species is called.

I really like that this kind of laughing at women's trauma is something even Felix realized wasn't funny and apologized for but the idea that maximum irony is the true way has been burnt into enough sad brains that idiots are gonna keep it up even after their spiritual kings have disavowed it.

I don't think Felix was right to say mean poo poo about sexual assault to a victim, but whats the issue with irony though?

Irony can be fine, you just have to have something more under it otherwise it's almost indistinguishable from prototypical dudebro edgy comedy. It's the same poo poo that started 4chan before they just became admitted racists/neo-nazis/etc. It's a type of humor that at its extremes feels reactionary to the performative caring you saw starting in more liberal social media 4-5 years ago and both just feel hollow as all hell. And most of the time it isn't even transgressive in a way that's funny or interesting it's just so loving boring.

Chapo's usually pretty okay at finding that balance but a lot of the fanbase, including posters in this thread like Al-saqr, don't get that nuance or understand it at all.

Matt's movie opinions are worthless, but even just looking over the first few pages of that site, he has to be a real loving idiot to put Guardians of the Galaxy 2 over Alien: Covenant and Shin Godzilla.


90% of Shin Godzilla is very heavy handed, lazy "Japanese Government Bureaucracy is bad!" written by Anno.

It's not great

Alien: Covenant is "Oh no how do I course correct the lovely last movie for fans but also still try and expand on this really boring lore that no one asked for or liked???" the movie and is a slog.

It's an okay movie. It's not god, and every action sequence lasts about 3 minutes too long but it has a moment or two and is at least somewhat follow able and fun in places as opposed to the depressing trash fires that were the man of Steel movies.

i just finally watched BvS and like MoS, the only nice thing i have to say is that they seem to grasp how destructive a fight involving Superman and someone/thing similarly powerful would be. Given that, it's hilarious how they have to shoehorn in "it's unpopulated/it's abandoned" twice in like twenty minutes toward the end

And it's very clearly some higher up trying to soften up Snyder's 9/11 Machine Superman image because it turns out basically no one in the world really likes the idea of the ultimate escapist fantasy savior being turned into a casual murder machine. Because while everyone that like shim likes him as this ideal hero that always saves the day with a smile on his face because life is hard and the world sucks Snyder only really cares about dude bro masculinity and power and just doesn't get the appeal behind Clark Kent, Perfect boy scout who is your dad and will always save everyone and won't miss your piano recitals.

i read the Death of Superman (original Doomsday story) trade a bunch like 18 years ago and it's an interesting contrast. As I recall they don't really shy away from "a lot of people are gonna die as a result of this" in the comics, or even taking the violence quite a bit further (what the authors see fit to do to Supergirl because she's an alien taking human form is particularly notable), but the overall tone is *still* more sunny and less brooding than either Snyder Superman movie. So yeah, dude does not "get" Superman by any means, I think
