Halloween Jack posted:And Vanko, and the Vulture. Those two not as much. Killmonger and the Aquaman guy wanted to end systems of oppression. Vanko only wanted revenge and the Vulture just wanted to make money, even if they both had legitimate grievances. Michael Keton was fantastic as the Vulture and the character did make some really good points, but the "The Vuture was the good guy" take seems to ignore that his reaction to his legitimate grievance was to start illegally selling guns to whoever could pay.

SlimGoodbody posted:I've never heard of it, but apparently there's some popular anarchist podcast called The Guillotine, and one of its hosts (a guy called Dr. Bones I think) is being both dragged and cancelled for sex creeping. Anarchist Twitter is pretty much drawing and quartering him. I really wish it was possible to fan of Chapo Trap House without also caring about fifteen other worse, less popular vaguely leftist podcasts hosted by sex weirdos and freaks. but, alas

Halloween Jack posted:I don't get these liberal people who genuinely love the news. Like, the main Newsguy goes on a rant about the greatest journalists and includes Buckley, because his debate with Vidal was an Event, and the National Review was a thing that definitely existed. All media about journalists is terrible, but at least there is a base to it. "Journalism exposes the dark truths that the powerful want to hide" is a total myth, but at least it's a good myth. But this isn't even about journalism, it's about the news. It's completely removed from any kind of foundational morality, it's just The News as a TV show. The moral issue the characters in the Newsroom face isn't stuff like, are they going to risk the wrath of powerful figures by exposing the truth or are they going to break the law to give the people information they deserve to know. It's are they going to do a good job doing the news. The show treats it like a great moral victory when they do a good episode of the news, and they are always tempted by the easy sin of doing a bad episode of the news.

PostNouveau posted:The Sorkin version of SNL was important. It's really sad. Holy poo poo. this is a synopsis for an episode of Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip Jordan's internal hemorrhaging is stopped, but her prolonged exposure may have led to a bacterial infection, leaving Harriet and Danny feeling helpless to do anything. Jack tries pressuring Simon into releasing a written apology to the media, which he firmly refuses to do. The military gains information that the terrorists may have executed one of the airmen, leading Mary Tate's K & R efforts to go forward. In addition to this, Mary Tate begins to draw up the paperwork that can make Danny the baby's legal guardian in the event of Jordan's death. Flashbacks reveal that Matt and Danny aired a sketch displaying the dubious relationship between the White House and Hollywood five weeks after 9/11, a sketch that angered many viewers. When Matt refused to release any apology, Jack threatened to fire them. This lack of principle led Matt and Danny to quit the show. Martin Sheen voices a conservative talk show host.

Groovelord Neato posted:i had never seen this insanely good tweet. custom Gundam suit is a bit redundant. It's very rare for Gundams to be mass-produced, most Gundams are unique. When someone has a custom Mobile Suit, it's usually a variant of a mass-produced suit. Like Char's custom Zaku or Barara's custom Mack Knife

Jonas Albrecht posted:jfc there has never been a Gundam that Goku couldn't kill. That's a given, Goku is very strong. But the statement was that Goku could kill a Gundam with one punch. There are some Gundams that would give him trouble. The Devil Gundam, obviously. But I think any Mobile Suit with a very powerful I-Field like the Nu Gundam or the Rosen Zulu would trip him up at first, just because Goku doesn't have a lot of experience with force fields. And that's not even getting into how Goku would interact with Newtypes. Goku is capable of telepathy, so would he be able to resonate with Newtypes? There's literally no way to know.

You stray from "an action movie that runs afoul of a horror movie" or start doing stupid poo poo like explaining why predators hunt, and you're just gonna end up with poo poo. It's amazing that Predator 2 is one of the best examples of how to do a sequel, but both successive Predator sequels sucked rear end.

The best ending to any superhero movie is Kamen Rider OOO Wonderful: The Shogun and the 21 Core Medals. An evil witch has put a dome over Tokyo and is draining everybody's life energy to power herself. When Kamen Rider OOO and his friends get to her lair, OOO sees that she's far too powerful for him to beat. So he pleads with her to just let him and his family go. All his friends are like, no you've got to fight her, how could you be so heartless. But the witch is like, very well, I shall spare you and your family. Suddenly her machine stops sucking life energy out of anyone and she loses her powers. The witch is like, what did you do, you tricked me! and OOO says "Oh, didn't you know? Everyone on earth is my family!" All American superhero movies just end with people punching a blue laser and being sad.
