i reckon a giant alien psychic squid appearing and killing millions of people, forcing the two world superpowers to unite against the alien threat would really gently caress up the political system. imagine what happened the ussr's internal politics

I wonder what ramifications the journal being published would have on Ozy's plan in an actual follow-up by Moore. Would the whole thing have crumbled or was the info from Rorschach's point of view too limited, causing people to draw the conclusion that Veidt was working for the aliens. An outcome where he still succeeded at his goal but was branded an enemy of the world by people looking for a less existential target to take out their post-tragedy anger on.

from the tie-in materials on the hbo website it seems like nixon hosed up the response really badly and the public turned on him

Please Rock, please run for President as a Republican in 2024. I want Disney bloggers to write articles about how they're tearfully destroying their copies of Moana.

The Republicans should ban Harry Potter again and LGBT organizations should come out in support because Rowling's a TERF. That would cause a lot of chaos.

all i know is there's a scene where robotnik claims to have acquired six PhDs, an academic career decision that would mark him out as a total dumbass

That's double what Fu Manchu had, though I guess it's a wash since dr eggbotman isn't a racist caricature.

Midnight Gospel so far is basically a podcast. I enjoyed it though, a podcast with cool stuff to look at during the interview is about the speed I was going for

I hate podcasts so once I realized it was the podcast equivalent of a music video I stopped watching.

yeah this. also josh04's essay was good about that too https://josh04.medium.com/better-thors-arent-possible-f87cf11bc732

and maybe what indigi said

but i think it's less than that, it's also just everyone wants to write their own story, start fresh, and kill off baggage that they resent being there that isn't theirs, so now they can own it

Gentrification of the media.

You know what movie really sufferes from the "liked it as a kid" effect? Spaceballs.

It's almost unwatchable if you're an adult but everyone I know who saw it when they were 12 can quote half the movie.

Just rewatched it recently and it's still funny. Sorry your sense of humor is broken.
