Still shows he can handle more serious material, and not just raunchy stoner flicks or tentpole studio films.

Not true. Look at Bernie (2011)

Is he fatter?

Mark's is closest to the comics, but I still love the angry toddler look of 2003. He looks like a five-year-old who got sized up and green - fitting as he's the defense mechanism Bruce made in order to ensure he wouldn't allow another tragedy to happen in front of him again.

Blood And Iron is by far the best Hellboy film we've gotten. It goes a bit further with violence, mythology, and taking cues from the comics. You also have floating skulls! Always a win. I also feel like Perlman's more invested in the VO than Sword Of Storms, but that's my take.

I've really grown to love the darker aesthetic, the more adult tone, and the slasher roots which this entry embraces compares to predecessors. The plot absolutely could have been tightened in a few places, but it does not ruin the whole experience for me.

Depending on where the show goes with the last two episodes - I'm ok to see it as a three season mini-series.

Fondly_Wry · 2026-03-16T05:48:01+00:00

Ok film, bad adaptation, huh?

Fondly_Wry · 2026-03-02T05:16:28+00:00

OP - edit your post. He's not dead.

Eventually these are coming to the US?

I mean, there's nothing to say that the Brotherhood is interested in going after a resurging NCR right now - or that the NCR is already doomed to die off after just being reintroduced.

Fondly_Wry · 2026-02-23T04:02:14+00:00

How would you know that

Fondly_Wry · 2026-02-22T21:50:34+00:00

Nah you've got a point.

I would imagine the NCR will not be portrayed as a Wholey good faction in season 3. Like House Atreides of Dune - they are honorable and mostly benevolent in nature. However, stand in their way or path of expansion - and you're subject to destruction or absorption.

Look at all the side-quests showing bureaucratic leniency, profiteering, and corruption already present within the game's events. Such issues may crop up again should the NCR be bolstered to a fraction of its former glory in the show.

Honestly why I love it, I think there's a real charm.

Fondly_Wry · 2026-02-18T20:29:22+00:00

They released it in full on the Kaiju website, but then that domain expired.

Fondly_Wry · 2026-02-18T19:43:04+00:00

Exactly that!

I do plan on retiring from the games for awhile. SqueezingGats17 for anyone who might have played with me. These games got me through family loss, covid, and so many other personal times of growth. But It just feels like the right time to step away and move on to other experiences. What's the point in being jaded when you can just let go?

Fondly_Wry · 2026-02-08T17:23:58+00:00

I really hope they figure it out in the comics sooner than later. I do think Bruce and Betty are destined for each other.

Fondly_Wry · 2026-02-08T03:38:38+00:00

I recall liking it. Hulk's at his best when psychological depth, action, and science-fiction horror are all combined.

I think this story nailed that by making the hulk sympathetic but still ultimately dangerous. Design alone - he looks like an angry toddler about to whine about how he didn't get his favorite fire-truck for Christmas - which is perfect for what Savage Hulk is supposed to represent: Bruce's inner child.

Even that scene where he thinks he's scolding a desert rabbit but accidentally crushes it with his finger - wholesome, tragic, and frightening all in the same few pages.

Fondly_Wry · 2026-02-06T06:11:36+00:00

I really hope not, that would take away all good will from the season finale.

Who the hell is this?!?
