man why does everybody just love to hate on poor little ol me ;_;Lurdiak posted:I'm sorry that I don't see the value in endlessly ranting about something, especially when my entire angle on that thing is asinine and clearly motivated by fanboyism of a lovely character. But please feel free to continue judging me as a person for disagreeing with one thing you said in your gigantic idiotic rant. nope cant possibly see a reason

Clearly that is just proof you shouldn't keep changing it back I suppose. Or hope that whoever is trolling you runs out of money? Very sad I can't see the redtext that went with each of those

Holy poo poo everyone just calm it the hell down. If you want to discuss the animated movie Killing Joke and how you feel about it as an animated movie carry on. If you want to talk exclusively about the book itself and how you feel about it then please resist all temptation to hit the reply button. If you want to talk about how the film works as an adaption of the book go ahead. If you want to talk about how you always loved or hated the book then move on. Also maybe just show a little bit of courtesy to people instead of acting like whiny assholes? Just a thought.

Mods, please hand out some loving bans or probations because this revolting behavior should not go unpunished. Even YouTube feels more comfortable than this thread. I paid $10 to get an account on this forum because I was promised a community that was more civil than that of 4chan and YouTube but this thread is just the worst. You know that Reddit site that SA loves to piss on? It's a far more civil and enlightening place to be on, because its communal voting system is far more efficient than moderators at filtering out offensive and useless posts.

http://www.slashfilm.com/justice-league-action-characters/ I missed this a while ago. 152 different characters in Justice League Action, and it'll be set up with two 11 minute episodes at a time. The show is definitely looking better the more I hear about it.

When I read The Killing Joke, I didn't care much about Batgirl. I didn't hate, I was just indifferent, and this in part hampers my efforts to empathize with Batgirl fans. My reaction was "well, yeah, this poo poo happens." The Joker kills people all the time. This time it was Barabara's turn. Using a character that was liked by readers was a good way of driving home just how serious the stakes are in Batman's fight against crime. Every time the Joker murders somebody, he is ruining a family and perhaps a whole community, because one person's death has a ripple effect. Did readers care about that nameless fairground owner whom the Joker murders halfway through the book? No, but that poor fool may have kids he can no longer feed. Batgirl fans also complained that there was no exploration of Barabara's feelings. In the hospital scene, when she wakes up, she expresses worry for her father. A woman whose past life was defined by self-sacrifice for others, and the first thing she thinks of when she wakes up is her father's well-being. Perhaps there could have been something more. Batman and the Gordons now have something in common - their lives were ruined by an evil man with a gun for no reason at all. Just one line mentioning that would have been awesome. But Batman had a fugitive criminal to hunt, so perhaps it made sense he did't waste time commiserating with her on that. There's a time and place for everything and a one-shot doesn't have the same room for character drama as an on-going series. The final scene, where the Joker and Batman share a laugh, is probably misinterpreted by readers. Batman and the Joker and not bonding emotionally. It's more like a release of tension, a chatharsis achieved through a joke. The fight is over, the Joker is defeated and resigned to his fate, the adrenaline subsides. People have been known to joke with their executioners on their way to the gallows.

This popped up in my subscriptions recently and I think it's a pretty cool look at adaptations, namely Zack Snyder's take on Watchmen. I think it's pertinent given the talk about the Killing Joke adaptation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5oltd-Jsi2I

So I actually watched TKJ movie, after stopping three times and I just couldn't take it. Conroy's voice has either changed a ton since BTAS or he phoned in his performance. And the animation was just so wooden, particularly for Batman and even the Joker. Hamill had a few highlights as Joker but still overall performance was dull. The promotion for this at least implied they were going to tweak TKJ as a story, particularly around Barbara's role. But besides the 30 minute Batgirl bullshit, mid credits scene and the loving dance number, it is almost a panel for panel adaptation of the graphic novel, just poorly animated. I really just thought this was overall pointless. And for what its worth, I enjoy the original graphic novel and its one of the few Batman stories I enjoy.

I really just thought this was overall pointless. "Almost" is overselling the movie a little. If it would've been a panel for panel adaptation it would've been better but they still crammed a lot of unnecessary stuff like making Batman and Joker's confrontation at the end your run of the mill "hero vs bad guys fight"

It's almost panel for panel because it has roughly twice the frames of animation as panels.

I often dislike Conroy's later Batman voice work. I think it's Andrea Ramano that made him so good. He always sounds wooden in these movies. Though I have no idea if she still works on these at all, I could be full of poo poo.

In that case I think it's more that Conroy is good for a very specific kind of Batman. He is (more or less) compassionate-sounding. He can get angry or serious but when he does it is because someone has done something unforgivable rather than because it is his default state. I watched a clip of the end of The killing joke and he completely nails the one moment he's genuinely talking to Joker and begging him to let him help him and I think that is because that is Conroy's strength. He absolutely rocks the compassionate element of Batman that is present in TAS. It's also why he is so frequently a poor fit for Arkham where Batman is kind of a poo poo. However him being The Batman Actor means he gets cast even in stories where Batman lacks the compassion that Conroy can sell so hard. ImpAtom fucked around with this message at 20:48 on Aug 3, 2016 |

Something that helped a lot in tas was that there was a lot of time where he could voice Bruce and not Batman

This is why I don't like him in the Arkham games or the Batman/Superman movies. I also don't like those games or movies, but that's not his fault.

The DCAU and especially its version off batman ist still the reason I would call myself primarily a DC despite not having a read DC comic since they came up with the new 52

Looked it up and saw a gif with the Hulk and... The Thing?! Are they actually letting the Fantastic Four appear on tv? Also saw a preview of next week's with Ms Marvel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubKSV_5zVfQ It's amazing how flat and boring Kamala of all people ends up, this show just sucks fun out of its ideas.

Thing and Torch were on an episode of that Hulk cartoon last year. Along with tons of other heroes like Ghost Rider, Doctor Strange, Blade, Deathlok, and a bunch of other heroes.

Like, I know the cartoon is only roughly adapting comics, but Black Widow setting off the bomb is a big diversion. How do they play that out?

Okay so its a two parter 1st ep is avengers go to a small town where "a weird mist" is fogging it up. It's a crashed inhuman ship and terrigen dispersed in the air. They run into The Inhumans (BB, Medusa, Karnak, Gorgon in their old school looks and a guy called the Seeker). Black bolt is an rear end in a top hat and gorgon starts a fight. A new inhuman hatches and they all team up to fight it. 2nd ep reveals the crash was a setup by the Seeker and Ultron. Ultron takes over attilan and tries to use black bolt's power and an amplifier to destroy the world but Natasha turns the machine into a terrigen dispersal device which saves the world but releases the mist everywhere. site fucked around with this message at 03:13 on Aug 5, 2016 |
