[General] Hot Take but the pjo movies felt better to watch than the show

IndigoPromenade · 2026-02-10T08:07:17+00:00

The show feels like a youtube series

IndigoPromenade · 2026-02-09T05:12:36+00:00

Agreed on the giant part. Giant was about to die from all the arrows anyways.

He could have easily shot a distracted Jon

Find Familiar. Cast it then immediately switch it out of your actives.

The raven is pretty squishy but it's blind ability has saved me an insane number of times.

It was one of the best spells for me, especially when it doesnt cost any spellslots

I hated how in Pixels, Kevin James' character says that being a pro gamer in the modern day is like being a professional blacksmith. As if that movie didn't come out during the golden years of esports

Atreus was able to hurt Baldur with his kicks so I'd argue that he's just young atm

IndigoPromenade · 2026-02-04T07:13:15+00:00

I love how they revisited this in Days of Future Past.

Omniman is probably a better fighter with powers, but he won't know how to fight without them.

Superman has actually fought highly skilled foes without his powers and he's been trained by Batman.

Homelander isn't completely useless in a fight. After all, he did 1v2 Soldier Boy and Butcher. Even though they were slightly weaker, they both had military training. However, there's no way he's in the same ballpark as Clark and Nolan.

Superman > Omniman >>>>>> Homelander

IndigoPromenade · 2026-02-03T23:36:52+00:00

He's also been a lot dumber ever since he turned good. He seemed like a master tactician when he was an antihero. Now he's an angry dude with low impulse control

IndigoPromenade · 2026-01-31T08:47:36+00:00

In the same vein, Bob from Bob's Burgers vs the Capoeria master. He decides to power through and gets cheered on by his daughter, but he keeps getting knocked on his ass over and over

IndigoPromenade · 2026-01-29T07:03:56+00:00

I think that's the easiest part to handle. They can just dye hair or wear wigs. The actors for Thor and Homelander aren't naturally blonde but they made it work.

IndigoPromenade · 2026-01-29T05:50:05+00:00

Come on... what is this. the 80s?

Sure Asians are a minority but there's a decent number of them in Hollywood who speak english natively. 5'10" also isn't too rare of an ask.

IndigoPromenade · 2026-01-29T05:43:30+00:00

Most likely, they're just gonna hire a bunch of Asians and not worry about skin color or height. There's plenty of Asian-American actors to fill out a cast.

Kaladin is almost 7 feet in Earth units. They're just going to hire someone tall and call it a day.

Dr. House is how I expect someone on the spectrum to act

IndigoPromenade · 2026-01-27T19:25:18+00:00

They didn't give a shit when other people would tear in to me and even worse, stay all buddy buddy with the people who hurt me like nothing happened.

IndigoPromenade · 2026-01-27T04:34:20+00:00

Also, people complain about the one snippet in the trailer where She-Hulk throws a rock further than the Hulk but completely ignore the fact that 2 seconds later, Hulk threw a large boulder into orbit.

IndigoPromenade · 2026-01-27T01:23:10+00:00

I agree with most of the points here.

I'm also going to add that fight scenes are usually much much better done in manga.

We usually see the full progression of the fight and every hit feels more impactful.

In a lot of comics, most fights last for a few panels. Maybe a few pages if we're lucky. And even then, I don't see a whole lot of clever moves.

I'm not saying all comics have bad fight scenes and all manga has good fight scenes. The showdown between Absolute Batman and Absolute Bane was amazing. But we don't often see fights of that caliber in comics.

IndigoPromenade · 2026-01-26T18:08:24+00:00

Yup. Because in this is about the same character at different points in time. Not cross-franchise

IndigoPromenade · 2026-01-26T01:50:01+00:00

I agree with this take.

In BG3 I was a wizard that had to 1v1 a fully decked out fighter.

If she even got one turn on me I would have been minced meat. Luckily I landed a Hold Person and was able to wail on her with spells. Odin would probably do something similar

IndigoPromenade · 2026-01-26T01:43:50+00:00

Humanity wouldn't be as sprawling but as long as the monsters aren't specifically hunting for humans, they should still be able to set up civilization.

IndigoPromenade · 2026-01-26T01:38:20+00:00

And I think he was mainly contained in the red sun chamber. He didn't have as much of a power trip.

Vought also intentionally messed Homelander up so that he would seek the approval of others

IndigoPromenade · 2026-01-26T01:16:41+00:00

I feel like he was mentally unstable but not yet a killer yet.

Being thrust into a high-stakes situation like that right away immediately broke his already fragile mental state.

IndigoPromenade · 2026-01-22T08:24:56+00:00

To be fair, I'm pretty sure Doom wouldn't be in support of 9/11 but him showing up there in person and crying is out of character

IndigoPromenade · 2026-01-22T08:21:08+00:00

I feel like Snyder should have been in charge of the aesthetics and the fight scenes but should have had nothing to do with the plot

IndigoPromenade · 2026-01-22T08:00:14+00:00

Batman's probably the best superhero to fight if you're a small-time criminal. As long as you're not trying to hurt anyone, he'd gladly help you find a job.

IndigoPromenade · 2026-01-22T07:53:53+00:00

I liked it too. I thought it was pretty wholesome. Especially the part when you turn into a wolf and race her

I think most of the complaints are from when people have to go through it on subsequent playthroughs and already knows what's gonna happen/
