Most people aren’t all evil or all good. A morally ambiguous ending where the kid does evil things but gradually realize they are wrong and try to become a better person might be more interesting, or he realizes that while he can do anything and get away with it, it will be a very lonely life as a supervillain. Look…
There’s been a few earlier takes on “bad Superman.” Rick Veitch’s The Maximortal is an extremely strange comic where the Superboy equivalent barely has a human mind at all, it’s just this horrifying murder-baby with a very confused understanding of the world (it knows its parents are farmers, so it thinks it can help…
If Roy was just a little better to Pam, this could have all been avoided.
This does look compelling in a way, but the trailer gives away a bit too much I think. The earlier trailer makes the kid feel very creepy and all that, and there is an impression that he might turn murderous, but not necessarily (they cut away from the lady in the diner suggesting he might have killed her or maybe was…
Irredeemable and the spinoff Incorruptible are both damn good reads.
Mark Waid did something like this with his book Irredeemable. The premise is that it’s this guy with superman like powers who just is not psychologically equipped to be a hero and have that kind of responsibility and he ends up turning bad and going on a murderous rampage.
The term ‘choose your own adventure’ has become a general name for the entire genre though, so I’m fairly sure any claim to the name would be invalid. Something in common use like that becomes indefensible as a trademark.
Yup, its money.
There have been CYOA knockoffs from other publishers/producers for decades (like Pocket’s Which Way Books series in the ‘80s, and the MysteryDisc interactive movies from back in the Laser Disc era), so I don’t know why they’d suddenly have a problem with it now — unless it’s just that Netflix is a bigger, far wealthier…
I started playing Call of Pripyat again and completely forgot how to play and what I was supposed to do. I’m enjoying figuring it out.
I still get really emotional explaining the bit where JJJ is watching Peter try to save everyone from drowning in the NYC cataclysm- an act that ultimately kills him - and realising that he has completely misjudged a young boy.
I haven’t read comics in many years, but growing up in the 90's prowler was one of my favorite random side characters that would show up. I even had a couple issues of his limited series back in the day.
So i was rooting for him to get some sort of redemption and i was sure he wasn’t all bad. I stupidly didn’t put two…
Yeah, I’m re-reading the comics (including the last bit of Peter Parker’s Ultimate series) now and the movie definitely handled Aaron way better. Miles’s Peter Parker on the other hand... Lets just say that I was not expecting to be that emotional while reading the comic, especially after I already knew what was going …
But on the other hand, for you and others who knew the character’s background you got the dramatic irony effect. So you got to cringe every step of the way as Miles got closer and closer to knowing the truth. That’s powerful too.
peter killing MJ with his radioactive spider-jizz.
I didn’t have the comic background for this one, so it was a legit gasp moment for me. And a heartbreaking one at that.
I kinda hated knowing the Prowlers relationship to Miles from the comic books (and all the media around the film). I wish I was able to have the same reaction to the reveal my friend did, even if the film didn’t try to hide it as much. It was still an awesome moment in an awesome film though.
80% of this show’s charm is Howerton’s about-to-explode-any-second line delivery. “They were just sitting there! Kissing! It was gross! Get out!” Also Patton Oswalt is doing great with what he’s given; “No! I want you to die somewhere nice!”
