Freaking Crumbum posted:that's part of the fun of serialized characters that can't ever meaningfully age or change! now batman was "born" in like the early 80s and his parents were shot outside a movie theater in 1994 (in order to keep the relative age of all the characters coherent).

Star Trek is never going to be good again at least until capitalism collapses, or I guess if the rights for it somehow end up in the hands of a company that is willing to take even the smallest possible risk instead of making the entertainment equivalent of hamburger helper See also: Almost everything in Hollywood, almost all AAA video games

I was like 14 when I first read it so it just kind of washed over me. I still enjoy reading it but, like, there's a bit near the end where tv journalists, faced with orders from the president (backed by occupying soldiers) to stop broadcasting footage of a government massacre, bravely defy those orders to Do What's Right Meanwhile, we don't even have to coerce journalists into supporting the police state, even when they're the actual victims of it

vyelkin posted:I read a funny article a little while back called something like "why is sound mixing in movies so bad?" and it was a Hollywood sound engineer basically saying "we try our absolute hardest to make the dialogue comprehensible but then inevitably the director comes in and says "gently caress it crank the music and sound effects to 11" and then we say "now no one can hear the dialogue" and the director who has memorized the entire script (and who sometimes wrote the script in the first place!) and knows exactly what word comes next in every line says "nah it sounds fine to me I can tell what they're saying" and then the movie comes out and no one who hasn't already memorized the script has any idea what the gently caress is happening really glad to be justified by this

is the Illuminati still a thing in Marvel comics right now I mostly only ever read Ultimate Spider-Man and relatively self-contained stuff like Hawkguy but I remember the Illuminati existing and it being all rich white dudes and also Black Panther, and for some reason we were supposed to believe that Tony Stark and a bunch of literal monarchs were good guys, honest (if there's anything that's been really good since Hawkguy ended let me know. I got tired of trying to keep up with that poo poo; I'd try to follow writers I knew I liked and then they'd, like, write six issues on one series and then move to something else)
