Slipknot will in fact be the sole survivor. Right before Batman batsnaps his neck, he cries out for Martha. The post credits reveal that Martha is his favorite prostitute.

There's nothing special or magical about paying a bunch of actors a butt load of money to reprise their roles. That's not a universe. That's manufactured stories to pump out to you like Doritos. Have some taste. Dare to be discerning. We don't need a 3rd Spider-Man reboot.

I for one watch only films with clotheslines.

I'm not too sad about Slipknot being a serial rapist getting cut. It was offensively embarassing with Dr. Light, and it would be extra embarassing with Rope Guy

Though it would be funny if his shocking twist is that he's not actually a rapist. He's just too good at bondage.

I'd probably go see Suicide Skwad if a witch actually did get shot by a cruise missile.

Isn't it obviously Loki you both are talking about?

It's actually really hilarious in retrospect with all the retconning they did to whittle the number of dead in NY down to 72 or whatever it ended up being. So an invading alien army emerged above NY and manages to kill less than a hundred people after an hour or so and the illuminati or whatever are like "OH gently caress DROP A NUKE". Yeah, worst plan ever. Maybe give it a couple days until the number of casualties hits a whopping 4 digits. Or like send in a conventional military response; the NYPD seem to be doing alright along with Barton and his loving arrows.

One of these days Marvel or DC will realize XCOM's a thing.

(My favorite scene in MoS was the military being crushed to pieces by Faora and Namek).

I looked at your posts in this thread though and recurring theme in your criticism of Suicide Squad is that you disagree with the movie for political reasons.

That's par for the course in CD.

Oh God no. Please. I'd give it three posts before it turned into a ham and pineapple pizza debate or which fast food burger was Marvel and which was DC.

Hardee's and Carl's Jr., but which is which???

So if Joker was in Arkham after offing Robin, and that's where he met Harley, how can she be an accomplice to his murder then

That's just how crazy it was!

I guess that Deadshot's daughter also had an arc even though it almost completely happens off screen, she goes from "I still love my dad even though he does evil things" at the start to "Assassins are cool and awesome!" after he helps save the world.

Assassin's Creed will hit record sales that year in Gotham.

He's most definitely not a Juggalo because he's not trying to make Christ cool.

I didn't know there was a strong Christian element to being a Juggalo.

They have an entire album dedicated to making it crystal clear that the dark carnival is an extended metaphor for Christianity, including the line (paraphrased) "We're not sorry that we tricked you".

Rigged Death Trap posted:

iirc there was some effortpost somewhere in Games(and/or ADTRW) where someone compared storytelling techniques in Japanese pop media against western ones.
It boiled down to 'inconsistency is okay if it fits the narrative'. But I may be misremembering.

Solid Snake repeating every noun he hears is apparently a Japanese thing too.

Please also explain how Cesar Romero's Joker was better, because he's obviously wearing paint over his moustache, whereas in real life we know that chemicals can't turn people milk white and grass green.

Hair dye and skin whiteners exist. :v:
