Back in the day the motorazr was a 1:1 for the analogy haha

Also have you seen how narrow and tall it is? Feels like an extended switchblade >.<

TIL

Ok never-mind I guess everyone is just a sexist misogynistic pig.

You are trying to say that male characters are just as boring as female characters yet people are madder at the female superheroes right? Then you’ve used Thor as an example, specifically of the pathetic POS he was in Love and Thunder.

Thor was successful because of the sheer charisma of Chris Hemsworth and the novelty of seeing Thor on the big screen. While after his first appearance in the original Thor film, his own movies have been of questionable quality, he’s always been an entertaining addition to the crossover movies (I’m putting Ragnarok in there too).

Brie Larson does not have the same amount of charisma (with all due respect to the actress who’s done other great stuff) to make Captain Marvel work as the next flagship Avenger. Plus at this point, the novelty of superheroes is thing of the past. Expecting her to lead the next generation of Avengers with both B/C list superheroes along with uninteresting writing is Marvel/Disney doing a great disservice to the actress.

We could have had great Thor sequels and we could have a great Captain Marvel who led the next generation of Avengers. Now we have neither, in my humble opinion this is why people are madder at Captain Marvel (as misdirected as this hate may be).

I will back this recommendation - it felt like I finally began to understand the trans struggle with this well made movie. Plays like a fever dream and hits like a truck.

I used to think he was Stanley until I saw a credit scene in the early marvel movies 😂

Ah gotcha, yeah I’m with you 👍

I will respectfully disagree, I think Nolan’s Batman series was both a good comic book adaption and a great movie series that could stand on its own. Early Marvel has some really exciting storylines and characters too. My personal fav is Captain America and the Winter Soldier. I think the Marvel Netflix shows also had really strong writing and great male and female leads. I loved Daredevil, Punisher and Jessica Jones (and even Luce Cage to some extent thanks to Mike Colters portrayal). In my ideal scenario - I’d like to see epic writing that matches or surpasses this era to emerge. Whether this features an all female cast or all male, or a mix of everything in between is inconsequential to me.

Apart from Mark Ruffalo’s version of The Hulk, you’ll find that most comic fans do take the piss out of the previous Hulk movies.

They’ve (Disney/Marvel) found new audience and the old audience can be serviced elsewhere. Everyone wins 👌

I think the magic is gone - now the shows and movie lack the flair and excitement of the previous era. Now it feels like the we don’t need x, we have x at home meme.

It’s ok, they’ve learnt their lesson and won’t be tuning in for further projects.

Likewise. My promotion was less than the annual inflation.

Why is it that these fucks get to increase their price and just to offer shittier service but if I want a raise at my job I’ve got to go above and beyond?

This is Valve thinking ahead - when we invent the ability to respawn, we can just log back in like death never happened.

Yep AI at best can supplement talent, not replace it.

Yeah maybe if the wars in the world subside.

Watch how they steadily increase the price now (which they’ve already been doing)

Well put
