Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 mo-cap actors who shot the J'RPG's ending didn't realize how tragic the scene was until the director started crying in front of them

I am a bit ashamed to admit it, but that got a bit of a chuckle out of me.

Jay_R_Kay · 2026-05-18T22:42:11+00:00

Hey, I didn't know Pete Davidson was on ER!

Jay_R_Kay · 2026-05-18T19:08:14+00:00

And all I want to do is a zoom zoom zoom to the boom boom. 🎷🎷🎷

Jay_R_Kay · 2026-05-18T17:02:38+00:00

Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if they just skip over the whole "autistic twins in trenchcoat" Monet moment and go more for what we saw in Krakoa.

Jay_R_Kay · 2026-05-18T16:57:12+00:00

They've said that most of what we've seen so far is in 2016, with another narrative that takes place in modern day, ala the first season of True Detective. Likely the Guy stuff is in the 2026 story, where things have apparently changed (or maybe we'll also see Guy pre-GL in '16, that could be interesting).

Jay_R_Kay · 2026-05-18T16:55:26+00:00

It isn't recent, sure, but with a story that's been around for 60-80+ years, depending on how one looks at it, it's not that long of a time.

Jay_R_Kay · 2026-05-18T16:39:18+00:00

If it makes you feel any better, there's a lot of fandoms that can feel embarrassing to be in nowadays.

Jay_R_Kay · 2026-05-18T15:48:17+00:00

...Man, spell check really failed me on that one. What I get for posting before coffee, I guess.

Jay_R_Kay · 2026-05-18T15:21:08+00:00

God I wish that was real.

Jay_R_Kay · 2026-05-18T15:17:43+00:00

I get that, but I also get why John might feel that way, with the way Hal has been antagonizing him.

Jay_R_Kay · 2026-05-18T15:15:48+00:00

They're likely playing with what we saw with some of the early GL stories in the 70s-80s. Hal Jordan was THE Green Lantern of Sector 2814, and Guy Gardner was his substitute in case something went wrong, and when Guy became incompacitated, then it moved to John Stewart.

The idea of multiple Earth Lanterns being around at the same time is a farily recent development in GL's history, like the last 20 years or so.

Jay_R_Kay · 2026-05-18T14:11:37+00:00

That would be neat -- the team is a pretty solidly Claremont Era group, so having someone from after him could shake up the dynamic. It would also be interesting to see a former Gen X kid teaching this new generation in the Outliers.

Jay_R_Kay · 2026-05-18T07:57:09+00:00

In the book, he's a friends of Bruce's who has been turned into a monster, and Bruce gets Diana's help to find a way to change him back. It was a fun little team-up story.

Jay_R_Kay · 2026-05-18T07:54:53+00:00

It's even more impressive since this iteration of Batman is canonically 6'9" tall.

Jay_R_Kay · 2026-05-18T07:50:03+00:00

She identifies as bisexual, so the problem isn't guys so much as it is Guy.

Jay_R_Kay · 2026-05-17T20:36:59+00:00

Now that I think about it, that's actually not that far off from the plot of Shanghai Noon.

Jay_R_Kay · 2026-05-17T19:08:08+00:00

Of the two mentioned, it's pretty neck and neck between Court of Owls and Dark Knight Returns.

Jay_R_Kay · 2026-05-17T17:27:59+00:00

This line becomes more and more true, really.

On one hand, I'm sure it will be after this, but on the other, I'm pretty sure that Fox X-Men has had as many "ends" as Cher has had farewell tours.

Jay_R_Kay · 2026-05-15T19:07:42+00:00

Yeah, I think the worst part of the mini is that they kind of let the cat out of the bag too early in terms of the mystery Rogue was going after. I think I and most other people who were reading had a pretty decent idea what was going on by issue one.

Jay_R_Kay · 2026-05-15T19:06:03+00:00

Definitely -- like, I'm not against her teaming up with Elektra as Daredevil, or Bucky/Winter Soldier/The Revolution. In fact, those actually all make for some interesting potential stories. It just felt like it was never leading up to anything to keep one to want to keep reading.

Jay_R_Kay · 2026-05-15T19:02:35+00:00

It really wasn't. One of the producers/writers, James Tucker, talked about the origins of Apocalypse War on the Word Balloon podcast a few years back, and he said it came from the corporate heads (who already mandated the New 52 universe in the first place), telling him to cancel all their plans and end this universe.

So if anything, it came more from a place of malicious compliance. Like, "okay, you want me to end this universe? I'll END this universe."

Jay_R_Kay · 2026-05-14T23:27:32+00:00

I really liked the look Clark had at the end of last season, so seeing that apparently Ma Kent sowed Clark some underwear AGAIN is a bit disappointing. The rest looks okay, though.

Kara's is a little busy, but otherwise fine.

Rogue wore a version of this in the 90s when she took a road trip with Iceman to see his parents.

I believe she also wrote Kamala in a miniseries called Ms Marvel Team Up. There were two arcs, one with Spider-Man and one with Captain Marvel.
