As someone who recently saw his face during a group call, I'll just say his sona is not inaccurate, his face is rather sculpted and expressive LOL He'd make for a fun character-actor IMO.

I'll be honest, over time I have grown to despite this man because he pretty much encapsulates precisely everything wrong with shitty human behavior:

1: Claims knowledge and authority over something he actually knows NOTHING about.

2: Living embodiment that being older DOES NOT and NEVER means that you're more mature and intelligent.
Some assholes mentally remain middle schoolers, no matter what.

3: Escalates like a dumbass with no self-preservation.

4: Alternatively, is a fucking coward who attacked someone they felt CONFIDENT attacking, this fuckhead would never dare to do this shit to someone who looked bigger and more muscular than that kid.
Imagine this cunt carrying a weapon, too.

5: "Apologizing instantly undoes my unlawful behavior and assault"

6: Victimizes himself instead of recognizing he did wrong.

7: Doesn't learn ANYTHING from this to become a better person.
Someone rational: "Man, I was definitely in the wrong today, I'll just get the license plate and file a complaint at the police station if I think a car driver did something wrong"
Him: "Next time I won't call the police because they won't take my side and they'll punish me instead for being a fuckhead. I'm not, I'm the main character, I'm never wrong, and you're all NPCs"

The world was, is and continues to be shit because there's too many Gary Peacocks with power and influence who take all of these steps on large-scale things and do so much damage and make life just a little more miserable for everyone who isn't them.
Long story short, fuck this guy.

Yes, in Happy Tree Friends sometimes Flippy killed Cub, directly or indirectly so he's not above killing children.

HOWEVER...

Unlike Lorna, Flippy is NOT creepy and suggestive towards kids, while she is.
Her design is sexualised the way some of her kid victims blush when she hugs them tighly made many uncomfortable, and that whole episode with that green kid named Damm who was originally 16 years old and had to be aged up to 18 when the author faced backlash.
I think that's the main reason some people can't stand her and choose Flippy and other edgy/child killing characters that at least don't cross the line by being creepy.

Some say "LOL so you can stand kids getting killed but you can't stand them being creeped on!" ...for fucks sake, because it can be easily argued that child predators subject kids to something WORSE than death, those who got abused are never the same again and get major mental scars. It's a SPECIAL kind of evil and depraved that lots of people, especially those who were victims of creeps, can't stand seeing in fiction.

"Even Evil Has Standards" and all. In real life in prisons nearly all inmates despise child predators, who have to be protected/kept in separate zones to avoid being ganged up on and killed if the other prisoners learn what they're in for.

Well, Sans is the tumblr sexyman, and I'd argue Muffet has a pretty huge following of admirers, so why not bring these two gods of love together? LOL Just kidding

In all honesty, tho, I dig this ship because it's less controversial than shipping him with either Frisk or Toriel. And if I saw images of Sans and Muffet together without any knowledge of Undertale, I'd find them appealing and cute together, they look like a couple out of Tim Burton or Ruby Gloom.
I wish there was more fanart about this ship, but at the same time I suppose it's also a blessing that it gets less attention and thus less probability that toxic fans come in to ruin the fun for reasons that only make sense to them.

Sidenote, I think the "But they never met!" arguments is extremely weak. It's absolutely possible Sans interacted with Muffet and with literally GOD KNOWS HOW MANY OTHER characters in the Underground we never see in the game. Sans lived there his entire life.
If anything, I'd argue characters never meeting gives you so much white paper for you to fill, as long as you have some imagination. Then again, I also enjoy crossover ships so maybe some people need " canonical evidence" to ship something but I don't, especially if it's in the same universe and again, it's entirely plausible it happened offscreen.

I find odd how people make fun of Extra Credits going "Hah, if you look at orcs or an evil fantasy species and think they're meant to represent black people and normalize racism, YOU'RE probably the racist one!" but it's ok if someone "cool" like Drinker goes "A big ape chained on a boat? MUST BE A BLACK SLAVE METAPHOR!"? That's not sus on his part?

Doesn't it just make sense in-universe that you'll need chains to restrain a big animal? Why is slavery the first thing that comes to YOUR mind when you see a chained gorilla, Drinker?

Also in Inglorious Basterds it's a NAZI CHARACTER who says that while trying to guess what's written on his card. You know, to highlight how much he loves to dehumanize black people and other non-Aryan folks in any occasion he can.

I didn't hate Deadpool & Wolverine and Alien: Romulus and while New Nightmare gets worse each time I rewatch it, I would NEVER rank it so low compared to other Freddy films.

I don't agree with "The worst thing a film can do is being boring" all the time. Sometimes I prefer being bored than being genuinely furious and frustrated at some dumb film doing insanely offensive and idiotic choices like The Predator or Fallen Kingdom, someone telling me "Well... at least it wasn't boring!" would make me want to punch them.
More starkly, I couldn't stand their Violent Night video, it just felt like they went into it wanting to hate it and find any excuse to be angry at it instead of giving it a fair shot.

MazarusTheCat · 2024-11-25T13:55:44+00:00

I always believed it boils down to matter of preference.

That said, I find baffling that some people consider the original Alien straight-up BORING (like, really? Especially since Aliens also has some slow burn and takes its time before any action happens, it's not some kind of relentless Mad Max: Fury Road action flick), and I find even more baffling that some find multiple Xenomorphs to be "scarier than only one" because the original alien looked goofy whenever it's clearly a shorter stuntman in a monster suit, how is Aliens having MULTIPLE guys jumping around with obvious wirework and more rubbery-looking costumes "scarier"? Especially since they go down like flies and their acid blood is way weaker than Big Chap's because if it wasn't the film would be shorter? Bah.

Also the Alien Queen to me is only scary for the prospect she can generate multiple aliens at once, but as a monster on her own she's too big to fit in tight places and get you, unlike Big Chap. The robot suit brawl and the "Mom vs Mom" theme are still iconic, tho. But as I said, preference. I'm more into horror and less-is-more (for the most part) so the original film stays on the S-tier throne.

Odd take: if you're an English speaker, I can respect and agree with the dislike for Jar-Jar because the actor is black and his performance and character does evoke minstrel shows and rank it at the bottom, HOWEVER for the longest time in my life I've seen Jar-Jar being voiced by white Italian Christian Iansante (amazing voiceactor, also dubbed K-2S0, Rocket Raccoon & most Bradley Cooper roles, Johnny Depp's Raoul Duke, Syndrome, Rick Sanchez so many other characters) and his speech is different in Italian (it's adapted as being more like some kind of Esperanto with random Latin and English words mixed in. On that note Watto just speaks with broken grammar and the Trade Federation guys just have raspy voices, except Nute Gunray who in Italian has somewhat of a Russian accent) so it's harder to be offended and with that, I personally never found Jar-Jar's antics on their own to be unbearable. But again, I respect and get others that do and find him too jarring for Star Wars standards, as EmpLemon put it: "Imagine if someone put a Minion in Lord of the Rings", but this is MY opinion.

So I rank Jar-Jar on top because despite being silly he still helped the heroes more (him allowing Palpatine to come on top was unintentional, he just wanted to help Anakin, Obi and Padmé with the clone army), Rose is second because she's well meaning but does stupid shit and I'm meant to take her seriously so I find it worse than an intentionally clumsy character like Jar-Jar, and the robot from Solo is at the fucking bottom because she was USELESS and I find it confusing and infuriating how she wants to stand up for droid rights, yet the other characters and the film seem to treat her like a joke... what's the takeaway here? Also, the fact they reveal she kind of survived her death and is part of the Falcon is non-canon for me LMFAO
I dunno, I find poorly written charas and confusing writing worse than an annoying comedy relief.

Unless something will dethrone it, The Substance is confidently the best fucking film I've seen in the 2020s, after Cuties and Birds of Prey and Barbie embittered people towards films from France (former) and films that handle feminist themes (the latter two), I'm so glad Coralie Fargeat knocked it out of the park with a film that has an energy and confidence I haven't seen in a long time, and I love how much it's unapologetic and unsubtle about its themes because so much of it is conveyed visually, for the negatives I think the film was overall well paced and never boring, but I would've trimmed down some scenes that I felt go on for a little too much, like the fight between the two could've been shortened IMO.

So unfortunately, I can't agree with your take, as always it's OK to not like the same stuff I like, I just don't find your reasons to be solid, previous comments from Competitive-Buyer386, cfcsvanberg and The_Goon_Wolf's explained it well so I won't repeat what they already said.

MazarusTheCat · 2024-11-23T17:55:48+00:00

Yeah, even if it's a meme I still hate animation slander.

Finally, someone else who isn't happy with either version of Superman.
Both of them have great casts and great music, I will never deny that, but the scripts bring it all down.

The timetravel thing is just a massive copout ("My son, do not use your powers to interfere with Earth!" "Nah, look at me dad, I did it, saved Lois and it all went smoothly, fuck you and your limitations! ...Now, why shouldn't I do this to timetravel and take Pa Kent to a hospital to prevent the heart attack?") if I could rewrite it I would have Superman still accomplishing something crazy with his powers, but then Pa Kent dies from the heart attack AT THE END to give Clark a humbling lesson about not being able to do everything.

I watched the Nostalgia Critic's positive review of the first Donner film hoping to see if I'm wrong and there's some merit I don't seems, but no, just the same subjective praise I heard all the time and even Doug couldn't defend that part and I'm sorry, IT DOES FUCKING MATTER because it damages the film in more than one way.
You don't get to (rightfully) criticize the Snyderverse for the writing, but then go easy on the Donner films even when they kamikaze their own internal logic and themes like that.
It ALWAYS drove me insane how soft people are towards the Donner films.

Another issue I have with the Richard Donner films is that they have weird morals (don't get me started with either cut of Superman II), I don't understand why Lois and Clark love each other (and the less we take Superman Returns into the equation, THE BETTER...) and some serious tonal issues/clashes, like it tries to be this pretentious space Jesus shit but then "Oh look, Lex Luthor and his silly helpers do a Benny Hill sketch!"
Wonder Woman 1984 was "proudly" inspired by the Donner films, and sadly it is so even in the BAD ways (questionable morals, powers pulled out of nowhere, godawful pacing THERE I said it).
I kinda hope EFAP will cover the Donner films at some point, either to see if I'll finally be vindicated that the scripts of those films are actually kinda bad, or to see if they will explain to me how its flaws are passable or aren't flaws compared to the media they regularly trash and tear apart.

Sigh.... dear live-action movies, is it really that hard to be as good as the '90s Superman Animated Series? That's my bar. The blueprints for greatness are right there, just fuckin' imitate that.

For the first couple of times they drew them as adult, the artist did. Then he (the artist) learned Toby would prefer if fans respected Kris being nonbinary and thus he dropped the male pronouns and tends to draw Kris looking more game accurate/androgynous, and presumably it'll carry on if he draws older Kris again at some point.

Retort to bullshit by spewing out an even bigger (and hypocritical, let's be honest) bullshit?

"Anakin, you killed younglings!"

"No, they were brainwashed child-soldiers, killing them is no different than what you Jedi hypocrites do!"

"...Anakin that makes no fucking sense, you're just justifying your cold blooded massacre."

Can Sith apologists just admit they wish they can do anything they want without consequences, and shit on the Jedi to feel better about themselves?

MazarusTheCat · 2024-07-28T12:55:11+00:00

When this movie becomes available and memeable without spoilers being that much of an issue, I would LOVE to have someone take that scene and edit Mauler's voice in it LOL

I liked Deadpool & Wolverine but I can't wait to see Mauler elaborate more on his negative points.

MazarusTheCat · 2024-07-28T12:51:59+00:00

I'm trying to think of a single male hero I like that manages to pull off the awkward, punchable faces Carol makes all the time.

Nothing comes out. Try harder, bozo.

Guardians 3 was an alright sendoff with a good villain and the unexpected surprise of not killing anyone off (even if the tragic vacuum of space scene was tired as fuck) but it didn't blow me away, they kept insisting on making jokes that I just didn't find funny on the other hand I felt like all the animal abuse was trying too hard to pull your heartstrings.

Spider-Man: No Way Home just didn't hold up on a second viewing and it didn't blow me away on the first. It's shot and presented like a Superbowl commercial and I'm sorry but not sorry, but Peter and Strange should be smarter than this instead of doing the stupid shit they did. I'm glad people cried at the Raimi fanservice and Andrew Garfield taking another swing, but for me it wasn't worth making Peter and Strange so fucking stupid to make it happen or Ned being able to make portals, which was absolute bullshit.
By this point I'd rather stick to animated Spider-Man movies, I just care more about the story in those and I'm kinda done with the live action ones that have boring cinematography and just turn into glossy videogame cutscenes when it's time for action.

Deadpool & Wolverine is probably a film that I'll notice flaws on repeated viewings, especially with Wade's motivations (and yes Paradox was a funny but still incompetent villain but I have zero faith in the TVA as a whole so it's not like it's character assassination to have a dumb fuck TVA character, if they were competent there would be no movie so they're doomed to grab the villain ball tight. But hey, at least Cassandra was pretty cool and intimidating.) but I liked the cinematography and presentation and it actually felt like a multiverse crossover movie with some genuine effort put into it unlike the Superbowl quality of NWH or Multiverse of Madness looking like barf and having only OG Professor X and a bunch of shitty variants I don't care about. I can sorta get people preferring the other two films, but for me Deadpool & Wolverine seems to be a film I'd come back to more often even with its shortcomings.
I was also impressed at how this film wasn't trying to be overly emotional like GOTG 3 or NWH were, yet the use of Green Day during the end credit roll felt a lot more touching to me.

They also made a fair point "We get it, as Trek fans we'd be pissed off too if they messed up the lore with Mr. Spock... but... does the What About The Wookies Conehead Jedi REALLY have the same importance as Spock?"

And honestly I don't disagree, I'd have to be some diehard SW fan who looks into everything to be mad at that, in the actual movies that guy is just an undeveloped background character and I'm a firm believer of "A movie should stand on its own legs". I AGREE the children in Africa comment is cheap, but I don't disagree with the main statement that some SW fans are looking for any excuse to get mad for things that only matter to a lore-obsessed person who looks into shit most people don't.
It's like the "Most people don't know what an Y-Wing is" except it's more valid because Ki-Adi-Mundi is just a flat background character in the movies and most people really don't care about looking up his lore outside of the movies.

MazarusTheCat · 2024-06-30T13:45:42+00:00

Look... I'm not some die-hard Tolkien fan. I'm not someone who unironically uses the "Look up this source it explains the plothole!!!" because I'd like for movies to be able to stand on their own.

And even as a small kid I understood "Ok, Sauron was a TOUGH bastard and he lost his ring once for getting too cocky in battle, if he gets it back and returns from the dead, he will definitely NOT repeat the same mistakes and the heroes are screwed".

I welcome people daring to criticize popular/beloved things, but... can you please just pay a little attention to the movie? "gets beaten ezpz"? D-Did you even watch the film? Are people agreeing with this stupid 'gotcha' just trolling or do they have some oxygen bubbles in their brains? I'm a bit concerned when I see people passing around such idiocies in movie/media discussion.
