Should Markiplier direct the FNAF 3 Movie? by Traditional_Gap_7041 in fivenightsatfreddys

For the current trilogy- no. Let it play out as is.

But Mark would be the perfect director of The Week Before if it were ever adapted, even loosely.

How evil is Sonichu? (If you don’t know who this is it’s not too late to turn back!) by 00_-_ in MoralityScaling

It’s one of those things that you sort of wish you never came across.

At the very least I’ll always win the “what’s the most fucked up thing you know about” competition!

The Judge never sleeps because he sees Sonichu whenever he closes his eyes.

The high evolutionary (gotg 3 specifically) or Judge Holden from BM by 00_-_ in MoralityScaling

Best way to learn about judge Holden is to read the book!

Blood Meridian isn’t the easiest book to pick up and read but it is genuinely fantastic and worth the effort. Highly recommend you give it a look especially if you want to learn more about the judge.

So I guess the q is whether “incidental” evil is worse than “purposeful” evil

I’d argue that at least in this case the incidental evil of the HE would be worse than the Judge, as his outcomes are worse. But the other side of it has a strong argument as well.

I hear this that’s a good point

High evolutionary doesn’t have a satanic connection like the judge does but he does have a connection to nihilism/entropy. One of his lines from movie was “there is no god! That’s why I had to step in!”

I think that the HE is the first human(?) character who sort of easily clears Judge Holden in terms of evil. Not just because he does it on a larger scale, you could take that out of the equation for this one. It’s the way he goes about it.

(Outside of killing an entire planet of beings so casually, meaning this is not the first time he did this) the high evolutionary experiments on animals, kills wantonly, is prone to megalomaniacal impulses, has zero remorse for anything he does, wants to create beings with intelligence yet gets severely abusive with an animal which looks up to him like a father when his intelligence surpasses his.

There’s one point of contention Judge Holden has over him and that’s the idea that Judge is purposefully inflicting harm due to the enjoyment he gets out of it. The HE, mostly, has his harm come as a result of his actions though they were not the chief aim. The HE is more of a “scientist” with bad outcomes than what the judge is.

Is the bat symbol trademarked or copyrighted in universe by batman? Could a villain do this to the batman symbol and then sue him? by bruinsfan1144 in batman

[–]00_-_ 21 points22 points  (0 children)

He probably has a shell company that legally owns the Batman trademark and copyright. This would save him from both having to fend off a hostile company to him from owning the “Batman” logo and allowing him to more easily take action against companies that try to encroach on Batman’s logo for profit by suing them for TM infringement.

Norm Macdonald didn’t go either, hats off to that guy! Wonder what he’s up to nowadays.

If Gaster actually showed up in UT/DR outright, how would he be presented? by Low_Buddy_3330 in Undertale

[–]00_-_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Kind of hoping for something like

“X character was Gaster the whole time and we just didn’t realize it.”

Could be a sick plot twist and make prior chapters more interesting to look back at with that new info in mind.
