Jujubee when she’s told to roll a D100:

Man of Steel isn’t necessarily a bad movie, viewed in a vacuum, it’s just a bad Superman movie.

Snyder said his goal was to do a deconstruction, to start from nothing and build Clark into Superman, which...I get the inclination to take that approach after a near century of stories, and that can work for a lot of…

There is also Blue Beetle in August, which was made under the old regime.

You think lightsabers define Star Wars? Let’s just forget about the iconic weapons, droids, aliens, stormtroopers, etc.

Star Wars is often at its best in non-jedi stories - Republic Commando, Andor, Mandalorian

I picked up Titanfall 2 for $10 on ebay. I remember playing it, and I remember having fun, but I could not, for the life of me, tell you anything about the plot.

Privilege means you are validated automatically by society and media in general. Of course you don’t need to seek validation, it’s automatic.

I don’t like a character less or more depending on how close it resembles me, I don’t f***ing care if it is a man a woman whatever in between, black, white, hispanic, asian, robot, blob, etc

While it’s true that there’s no “one true” version of any character, there are some characters or franchises which are so tied to particular ideas that if you’re telling a story with them and not sticking to those core ideas then your story needs to be reacting against or commenting on them. Superman is conceptually a…

And what is it when someone forgoes sarcasm entirely and just calls you a coward and a lickspittle directly to your face?

Wow so brave

It was fine. Not good. Not horrible. Fine.

The “men” throwing kicking and screaming tantrums over not having 100% of representation are the same ones who insist representation doesn’t matter.

Two things made me absolutely hate the film. Both involve the portrayal of Jonathan Kent.

There were two common criticisms of Infinite: it was much more linear and scripted than the previous games and some people really didn’t like that the Vox ended up being villains.

Yeah, I’d rather they do another game exploring some other facet of mental illness with a new character.
