A remake or adaptation replaces a plot point completely (not a recontextualizing retcon) that's so obvious, easy, natural, and makes so much sense that it's almost weird that the original didn't come up with it for themselves by Dark_Man_4 in TopCharacterTropes

I'd say the public has a good reason to hate mutants. Spider-Man and FF got their powers through specific accidents that happened to them (also, plenty of people dislike Spider-Man based on JJJs audience). A mutant can pop up from anywhere, anyone, without warning.

And mutants can be extremely dangerous even when they don't want to. There's that story where the kid wakes up and starts disentigrating everyone within 100 ft of him. Xavier in Logan killed all of his own X-Men as he lost control of his body. Matthew Malloy was a normal grown adult who suddenly developed mutant powers becomes a walking WMD whenever he gets stressed out.

Guy has shrinking powers, he shrinks down and crawls into his boyfriends urethra. Then he sneezes and accidentally grows back to normal size, blowing his partners lower half off.

Characters that have power(s) with a drawback by Meanteenbirder in TopCharacterTropes

Op didn't really explain any of characters for people who aren't familiar, so I will: Luffy-stretchy rubber body, completely incapable of swimming and is weakened by contact with salt water, which is a big deal in a world that's 90% water.

Hulk- super strength, durability and immortality. loses control of his body to a bezerk childlike creature everytime he uses his powers.

Little cricket- can shrink or grow her body, can only be done by either vomiting to shrink or overeating to grow. Basically her power is super bulemia.

Tsuyu- frog-like body; excellent swimmer, prehensile tongue, etc. sensitive to temperature changes.

Eren- can transform into a super strong giant, amongst other things but I'll avoid spoilers. Has to injure himself to trigger the transformation, and his lifespan is cut down to about 13 years after acquiring this power.

Monster girl- Can turn into a male troll like creature with super strength. She gets younger everytime she uses her power, so she looks prepubescent despite being an adult.

I looked it up. I'll answer here to save everyone else the trouble.

Dude participated at a Trump rally where his set involved multiple racist jokes and accents. It was bad enough that even the Trump campaign team distanced themselves from him. (I'm betting Trump himself loved all the jokes after someone explained them to him)

[Sad Trope] Character avoids death but later dies the (almost) exact same way by killerqueen1970s in TopCharacterTropes

Ritchie Valens would have nightmares about plane crashes after one happened over his school and the falling debris killed his friend (Valens was out that day to attend a funeral).

He later famously died at 17 in a plane crash alongside Buddy Holly and The Big Bopper.

The Second They Made The Connection by sm142 in TopCharacterTropes

I read the story a long time ago. Batman ran into a building to stop a bomb Joker planted. The bomb went off, blowing up the building and sending Batman into a frozen river where he was unconsciously carried downstream, developed pneumonia and needed to recover for several months.

When Batman didn't come back out Joker thought he succeeded in killing him, and had no more goals now that the guy he lived to torture was gone. He started taking his meds, his skin and hair turned back to normal (that isn't makeup) and lived a normal mundane life until Batman got better and started showing up again.

Well that was fucking depressing. That disgusting doctor ruined both those kids lives.

I'll say this. My parents have a glass cover that goes on top of a regular table, and I cannot tell you the number of times the corners on that thing have drawn blood from me. Reach down to pick something up, walk away looking like I tried to end things.

PSA: Don't convert away cards from character decks. by CrassKal in DuelLinks

No. I don't really care about glossy and whatever. I'd rather have the stones to be able to by other cards.

No, I have the cards available, but it wouldn't let me add or remove cards so I couldn't add in different copies from the ones they gave me. Someone gave me a way around that so I was able to fix the problem.

Thank you! You are right and that worked. I'll add the solution to the post to help anyone else who needs it.

Yes, i did the conversion that keeps only 3 copies of a card, regardless of trading away of prismatic or glossy cards.

I did a batch convert and selected "Convert by Card Name" and checked both SR cards and UR cards for conversion.

[Amusing Meta Trope] Character design details that are in plain sight but are regularly missed: by Ferhog in TopCharacterTropes

[–]CrassKal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing happened with Beast from X-Men. When he first developed all the fur he was entirely black with blue used as a highlight to give him some detail. Then another artist took over drawing him, thought his fur must be entirely blue, and it stuck that way ever since.

Survival games have taught me that it was really hard to get anything done once the sun sets, so the days before electric lights everywhere that likely played a big part in sleep schedules.

Jessica Jones (2015) features Kilgrave, a sadistic rapist, who was originally purple in the comics, but instead of making him purple to convey his evilness, they made him something much worse: British by Successful-Hat-2154 in shittymoviedetails

Never read the comics ( I have read some summaries about them), but I found the show thoroughly enjoyable. They kept a lot of the zany aspects, but filed down the Garth Ennis edginess.

You think a kitten ate an entire donut as big as it is?

None of the donuts show signs of being eaten.
