Sooooo, anyway, how about those trans retards on Resetera?

Canadian university students screaming the Jewish slur that starts with a k. Yeah this is going well.

Guessing no one one ree will bother condemning it?

This attack on the MCU fans is reminding of the Mr. Show sketch.

[AldusMoneyPenny]

That Ryan. dude is so salty. One of the bigger Disney apologists in the forum (the type that has annual passes to the parks), and nothing good to show in this year.

Actually, Guardians 3 performed very well, Loki Season 2 is objectively brilliant, and She-Hulk twerked on the CHUDS so hard they're launching a coordinated deep state hate campaign that includes 65% of critics in their CHUDdery. It's objectively not "nothing good to show"

"Oh no, will they make fun of pronouns?"

There is a higher than nothing probability that GTA6 will tone down the humour and go a bit more safe than previous efforts.

GTA5 came out in 2013. The world was very different.

Personally, I can't wait for WokeTA.

They took out the trans NPCs (who all had stubble and crotch bulges) from the PS5/XSX versions of GTA V IIRC, so while I’m sure they’ll find some joke about pronouns or whatever to get angry about, I’m not expecting it to go wildly offensive on that stuff.

Nothing is stopping you from enjoying the slop that is The Marvels, you fucking weirdo.

You’re ignoring the subtext that they want to enjoy these movies and so must you.

[Gamegirl Nostalgia]

I just want Marvel to die because it's popular.

Devilish, I know.

Out of the cinema. Movie was super fun with a few lows but many many highs. Had no idea about the after credits and lost my shit. Made the films actual ending much better.
Introduction felt rushed and the music scene was completely pointless imo, but everything else was a really good time. Friend who absolutely had no hype for this came out saying he really enjoyed himself as well. Kamala and Carol were great, Kamalas family was way more on screen than expected, kitties are adorable.

Oh also every fight choreography was just super fun. Like sometimes ridiculously cool for one little second even. Definitively best fight scenes since shang-chi for me.

[Gamegirl Nostalgia]

All I get from that review is Marvel movies continue to feel like a roller coaster ride. It's fun but it doesn't leave you thinking like TRUE CINEMA. 

[Not an Alt Account]

Honestly same, high to mid 50s is still usually okay enough for me.

besticus maximus' law of Marvel reviews; the levels of great and fun are directly proportional to how much sex the viewer hasn't had in the last 10 thousand years

[quote=Noog]I feel bad for Iman Vellani (not THAT bad, she's still probably a low level millionaire

Should they hate her then and be happy she failed?


MCU fans right now

Good lord. I just watched the post-credits scene (admittedly a phone recording) and that's some Marvel-ass CGI on

They probably threw that scene in at the last minute to give people something to get hype over. You know there's not gonna be any follow up on that for at least a few years, if ever.

[AldusMoneyPenny]

Remember that troll dude and Harry Styles in Eternals? Remember that dude from Ted Lasso in Thor? I'm sure they'll be appearing in some new marvel projects very soon!

[Gamegirl Nostalgia]

#TheMarvels is the BEST film of the year! I laughed, I cried, and I shit my pants! This is a MUST SEE movie!

Someone needs to post this to Zeo's Twitter with a screenshot of The Marvels OT

A lot of RE users have open disdain for DC stuff since the Cape shit era started, while claiming that stuff like the first Dc Strange film was a high art because effects or something.

It's funny because they used to talk about Marvel breaking genres and exploring BIG THEMES RIPPED STRAIGHT FROM THE COMICS (now they defensively bring up that the movies are deliberately cookie-cutter and safe to ward off criticism) because a handful of the films briefly drifted in that direction while they were endlessly critical of the DCEU, and the Snyder films in particular, because it refused to strip the humanity from its heroes and the world to blindly hero-praise. Something comics haven't done in decades and something ironically started by Marvel. These are supposedly "left" critics of everything but nothing made them as upset as the fact that the DC films "don't give you moments to cheer" because even the non-Snyder films stuck to the notion that there are consequences to superhumans and/or gods existing. (Wonder Woman continues very directly from BvS she's placed in one of the worst moments in human history to "cut loose" and it's still savage and ultimately traumatic to her, the "fun" Aquaman deals with Arthur's reluctance to hero because of the consequences, etc.) A lot of their confusion regarding BvS is they think Batman is supposed to be the hero and Snyder is showing off how fucking cool it is to be an unhinged vigilante with a death wish while shitting on Superman who is still trying to find his way as a hero. The fact that the DCEU, at least initially, started as trying to justify heroes in a world without them is too complex and nuanced for their black-and-white worldview where there are obvious heroes who never do anything wrong and evil chuds who are behind every bad thing that happens. 

It's extra amusing because they tend to praise the Nolan Batman films, which chuds love btw, when the DCEU is both literally and figuratively a continuation of those films into the DC Universe as a whole. Snyder's take was extrapolated from Nolan's (and Goyer who wrote the first draft of BvS) who remained an executive producer on them. Nolan's the one who told Snyder to never watch the Whedon Cut because it was "heartbreaking." All the same themes are in the Dark Knight Trilogy except Snyder is dealing with absolute world enders like Superman and Wonder Woman plus villains on their level. 

The MCU couldn't even commit to Civil War and turned it into Iron Man being upset about his parents. (Something they refuse to give a pass to BvS for when it's not even really in the movie except that it was the last time Bruce went insane.) MCU threats simply aren't allowed to be threats or truly affect the world let alone the heroes. Age of Ultron is a mess because it starts with a top level threat who goes and sits in a cave and does less to threaten the "real" world than the Hulk earlier in the movie. SHIELD and like the entire government were taken over in The Winter Soldier and we're onto the next thing. Five years of people's lives were destroyed when their loved ones came back unaged (including some of the heroes lol) and we're onto the next thing. (UGH WATCH THE DISNEY PLUS STUFF I TOLD YOU YOU DON'T NEED TO WATCH BUT SHOULD BECAUSE IT'S EXCELLENT!) None of the shit matters except to setup the next reference or reveal which leads to nothing but the next and it's been this way for ages and it's what the fans want so there's no reason to expect it to change. (I'm not complaining, I'm explaining. Would I like the MCU to be at least a little better? Of course, I like the comics, but I'm not one who asks things to fundamentally change themselves and become something completely different.)

The DCEU seemed to operate from a contrasting premise because there was less of it so you could still imagine that stuff would be relevant because the films to date hadn't just moved onto the next thing and many of the original announcements (Batfleck movie, Cyborg movie, etc.) intended to follow in the wake plot-wise and thematically of what had come before. It was never going to work and nobody should lament that it collapsed because it was Warner trying to tack on an ongoing universe onto a five-film plan with a definite ending that Snyder pitched and they approved and announced (well, four originally: MoS, BvS, JL1 and JL2, Snyder expanded JL to a trilogy because he felt the team forming deserved its own film) before getting cold feet after three installments because it wasn't leading to a platform to do their version of the MCU.
