It’s like those days of the SNES/PS1 JRPG days never existed right?
I wish this show had gotten more recognition. Especially since it came out nearly a decade before Bakuman. :(
To avoid this....
I see where you’re coming from. The thing is, it’s just as convoluted as the film. Natasha was the one that suggested running away to Banner. It was her plan to bolt in the bedroom scene. And plays the “I’m sterile” card to try to entice a favorable response from Banner. Her years as an assassin don’t cut it, instead…
It shares the commonality with films from the 80’s. Think of it like Ripley/Hicks from Aliens. Or the original Total Recall with Quaid/Melina. It’s that mutual respect dynamic. The other girls are essentially tropes -
The movie could have gone a different way. It easily could have turned them into damsels in distress that Mad Max has to save, while they themselves become supplicant sex objects. The “oasis” scene, where they’re cleaning themselves and drinking water was the turning point. When they cut the chastity belt off, that’s…
I forgot this earlier, when Iron Man and Hulk are fighting, The Hulk gets angry when Tony mentions “Puny Banner,” and he apologizes. This would insinuate that The Hulk has spoken in between films.
No, I don’t agree. Joss never made her character good. The one guy that she falls for is the one that is most likely to cause her harm. In fact, in Avengers, The Hulk is chasing her through the helicarrier, when she is cornered her goes to backhand her. Not to punch or toss violently around, but raises his hand in a…
He doesn’t unfortunately. However, he has cognitive functions and acts with the group as a team. The best shot of this is at the end where they’re standing over Loki in Stark Tower. He’s in control, moving with the group in a non-threatening manner.
lol Sorry if that sounded trite on my end. Whedon is a very touchy topic for me, especially lately. I just feel like this film was like reading a comic of my favorite heroes, written by my least favorite writer.
What they should have done was linked this to the main article.
That’s my problem. I haven’t trusted Whedon at all, ever. That, in itself is another topic.
Yes, but here’s the kicker, if the guys can see how bad the character is in its portrayal of women that tells you something.
See, that’s where the movie fails horribly even more. At the end of the first film we see Banner walk towards the Chitauri metal worm claiming, “I’m always angry,” and then transforming himself, in control, into the Hulk. He also speaks, takes orders from Cap, rescues Iron Man. He spends that whole fight completely…
Oh you don’t want Quicksilver to have character. Trust me on this. Whedon has said in interviews that his cut footage made him to be, and I quote, a “pussy hound,” and arrogant. Which was supposed to make his death have more meaning because Hawkeye, being a family man, hated him.
On board with ya. Even though I still own the others and the sequel. I think an upgraded version would work, and Tri-Ace already did it with Resonance of Fate’s graphics. Now that we’re talking about it, I’d love to see Radiata Stories HD as well.
Possibly, since that game was the PSP version of the original Valkyrie Profile and came with updated graphics and an extended storyline. That doesn’t really need a port as they could just make it available through PSN. Now if they were to do the original PSOne game? That’d be a different story.
