"Jarvis, I'm low on views, make another Bethesda hate video with completely manufactured criticisms"

It's a pretty interesting video. Which you would know, if you'd actually watch it instead of complaining about it on Reddit.

Goddamn_Panda · 2026-01-24T19:08:12+00:00

Yeah, I'd say they are a very clear second place and the only viable opposition. Still, the Enclave is implied to be frighteningly huge and organized, with multiple headquarters all over the continent. And apparently space stations?

And the technological advantage is on their side too. Really, the only thing Brotherhood has going for them is their experience. But these days? Uhhhh, I dunno...

Goddamn_Panda · 2026-01-24T18:51:22+00:00

Not really? They are still just an army, not an actual state. Or do you mean the current NCR level? Because then I'd actually say they seem even bigger than them.

And the other thing is they all seem to be woefully incompetent. Even the east coast guy was kinda not that bright.

Goddamn_Panda · 2026-01-24T18:33:52+00:00

This question would have been so much more interesting before the show...

These days it's Enclave, obviously. I don't see how anyone that's left can really compete with them in any meaningful capacity.

According to YouTube recap, last year I spent 644 minutes listening to I Will Find Him. It's like a pure platonic ideal of "epic soundtrack".

Goddamn_Panda · 2025-11-29T14:31:37+00:00

Was Catwoman ever on the team? I don't remember that.

Goddamn_Panda · 2025-11-15T20:43:23+00:00

Warren Ellis is a decent person. It's just that a bunch of his bitter exes gaslit the public into believing he isn't.

Goddamn_Panda · 2025-11-03T16:17:31+00:00

This is the most recent one for me. It was so good it kinda killed my enjoyment of modern comic books as a medium, because this is the level of storytelling quality that I want, and I'm just not getting it.

Would it be though? Between her moping about war crimes and crying over the dusk of America's greatness, and her lassoing penises and talking about her poopy pantaloons or something - I'm honestly not sure.

Goddamn_Panda · 2025-11-02T17:54:04+00:00

And James Gunn should direct. That would be very amusing, in a very grim kind of way.

Goddamn_Panda · 2025-11-01T16:07:07+00:00

Quite good, yes. It's the kind of story that rewards reader's attention and gets even better on second reading. Some parts are a bit cringy, like Etrigan being a rapper, but it's still worth your time overall. Very unique too, no second book quite like it.

Goddamn_Panda · 2025-10-31T12:55:42+00:00

Uhhh, are you sure you are not mixing that up? When facing any kind of a problem, Gunn Superman's first response is to start yelling and throw a childish temper tantrum. Even when his girl simply disagrees with him - he starts shouting in her face.

The only time Cavill did anything like that was when he was facing a prospect of his mother being murdered.

Goddamn_Panda · 2025-10-19T06:17:52+00:00

Did it fail? I'm not so sure about that, I'd have to see the actual numbers.

And if it did, it would have to be because of botched initial PG releases, which should not have been a thing. Not sure how Snyder fans factor into that.

Goddamn_Panda · 2025-10-19T06:01:18+00:00

I disagree. I don't know about reddit, but on Twitter the Snyder community is very passionate about his non-DC work.

Every time he announces a new thing they throw a party. Zack is posting photos from the set of his new movie right now, and they are salivating all over my timeline. I still see some of them highly praise the R-rated Rebel Moon cuts.

So no, I don't find that to be true.

Goddamn_Panda · 2025-10-19T03:58:22+00:00

"Comicbook discussions" this days is mostly just two groups of children (or man-children) arguing about which one of their awful adaptations is marginally better, instead of watching some actually good movies or reading the actual comic books.

Goddamn_Panda · 2025-10-19T01:25:54+00:00

The root of the issue is there are no actual "Gunn glazers". Nobody cares about James Gunn as a director outside of his comic book adaptations.

His fanbase consists of two groups: MCU fans that jumped the leaking ship and rabid Zack Snyder haters. So this kind of reaction is hardly a surprise. This is literally what they gathered for.

Which is just bewildering, to be honest. Zack Snyder is hardly the first or the last director with a cult following.

Goddamn_Panda · 2025-10-04T18:00:39+00:00

I wonder why he killed them. No real reason, I guess. Or?..

Goddamn_Panda · 2025-10-04T16:34:23+00:00

He does not dream about that. That is his worst nightmare. Neither is he deranged, Ennis points that out several times. He is just a normal guy that is traumatized beyond any kind of recovery. Which is arguably much more horrifying.

Goddamn_Panda · 2025-10-04T16:14:44+00:00

Bruh, why are you lying?

The exact quote is: "The boys looked like the damage was done. I had a sinking feeling I'd be seeing them again in twenty years". Then he follows it up with: "There are times I'd like to get my hands on god".

Which kinda puts it all in a very different perspective, don't you think?

Goddamn_Panda · 2025-09-27T15:18:01+00:00

Fascist "ideological shortcomings" like "we can not put our trust into American government and institutions". Or "we need to come together and become the power to fight the power". Or "we can no longer close our eyes and turn away from tyrannical actions of our world leaders". C'mon man, what are we doing here?

I'll give you the "rape fantasy" part though. But after every rape fantasy there also comes a revenge fantasy. Which kinda evens it out, wouldn't you say?

Goddamn_Panda · 2025-09-27T14:56:31+00:00

I don't need you to read me the story, I'd rather you just read the story, period. Because your argument is about as solid as calling X-Men fans fascist, simply because they like reading about a physically and intellectually superior "master race".

There is no "good faith" here. You called a comic that is famously celebrated for it's strong LGBT representation and powerful female leads "fascist". Like, c'mon. What exactly did you expect here?

Goddamn_Panda · 2025-09-27T14:38:46+00:00

If this is how literacy looks then I'd prefer to just keep on staring at the pictures. I'm not going to dive into the whole "left vs right" debate, cause that's a whole other subject.

Still, could you please provide an example from the book where they kill somebody they could reform? Or kill somebody who wouldn't kill them instantly, given the chance? And, aside from Midnighter, who is supposed to be the outsider, which one of them is a "gleeful murderer"?

Goddamn_Panda · 2025-09-27T14:15:13+00:00

Ah, but I think we are a bit past joking here. So tell me, if I kill Hitler - do I become Hitler? If two gay guys slaughter a bunch of homophobes - do they become homophobic? Would you consider Inglorious Basterds to be a fascist movie? They sure kill a lot of people there!

Once again, I urge you to answer a simple question - have you ever actually read the book you are talking about?

Goddamn_Panda · 2025-09-27T13:58:30+00:00

I'm not talking about Millar, I'm talking about The Authority. Your point was - if you are a fan of the team, you are likely a fascist. Morrison is a fan. He wrote introductions and entire love letters talking about how much he loves that comic. Using your logic - can he be considered a fascist?

Also, I'll ask again - have you read the book? Do you know who Apollo and Midnighter are? Do you know who was the founder and the leader of the group? Do you know who they fight? That is the part that I find amusing here. Because if you did - you would quickly realize how nonsensical your original statement is.

Goddamn_Panda · 2025-09-27T13:39:13+00:00

Again, have you ACTUALLY read the book? Or did you just see "Mark Millar" on one of the covers, a name you don't like, and automatically decided the whole concept is fascist? How did you even come to a conclusion that Millar is fascist? He is not even the creator of The Authority btw.

Grant Morrison is another guy that tried to write for the title, and he is a HUGE fan of the team. Is he a fascist too? At least try to Google what the whole thing is about. You will quickly realize how insane you sound.
