Ever since Scorsese landed some pretty mild burns on the MCU all the superfans have been going into overdrive to prove that MCU stuff is Real Art and Real Important Cinema and it is very tiring.

Can't we all just enjoy our dumb superhero trash for the dumb superhero trash that it is? There's nothing wrong with liking stuff because it's entertaining!!

I mean, if you're a successful actress and you go out of the house in a skirt and without underwear, knowing that paparazzi are just waiting for opportunities like this and that it has happened many times before, then there's really nobody you can blame for it but yourself.

Seems like a bit of an overreaction to call that incredibly dumb? I mean, yeah, it's typical fanboy hyperbole, but it's not like it's a bad line, either.

it's fine to enjoy watching garbage but it's so embarrassing that ostensible adults have to make this series, and particularly that line, out to be that good

I'm just gonna link that Brows Held High vid about Buckaroo Banzai because it's a pretty interesting take on the film and describes it as the closest thing you can get to the experience of being dropped into any of the middle phase mcu films without any knowledge of who the characters are or why they exist and that it's okay to just have fun and not be mean.

i feel like i'm just elitistly having my sensibilities offended here but i can't help being irked by the implication that that style of "profound" dialogue is what screenwriters do and should aspire to, and that the disney+ limited series "wandavision" is the apotheosis of an art form that everyone else is just playing around with

There is nothing good / worth buying coming out this month. Just a bunch of games are getting PS5 / Series X upgrades. Unsurprisingly this was actually suppose to be a big month for releases, but then everything got delayed to later in the year, 2022, or now has no release date at all.

Disco Elysium on console is new and worth getting (though if you already have it on PC you get all the new features as a free update :hellyeah:)

Even after everyone knows all the plot developments, it'll still be a series of pretty good parodies of various eras of sitcom. So it's probably worth watching if you're into that sort of thing

The other funny thing about it is that structurally it's an inversion of the trendy "mystery box" JJ Abrams show because the audience goes in knowing a lot more than the characters about what's going on and we're watching Wanda and Vision gradually catch up to where we are already

does this require me to be up to date on the latest happenings in the larger marvelverse or will the show explain it to me?

The way the Yakuza: Like a Dragon PS5 upgrade is working is really dumb and probably means I won't actually take the upgrade and just stick with the PS4 version. I was gonna do an NG+ playthrough after the upgrade but apparently my PS4 version save won't work in the PS5 version, even though I was already playing on a PS5 and it's like, right there

in other superhero news my 4yo has developed an intense interest in spider-man and i showed him into the spider-verse, which he now requests to watch almost every weekend, so i have seen it probably half a dozen times over the past couple of months and you know what? doesn't get old. great movie. looks great, sounds great, good jokes, good action, sad villain, mahershala ali, it's got everything
