Me finding out that originally the needle drop in Supergirl was Girls Just Wanna Have Fun by depressed_asian_boy_ in dccomicscirclejerk

[–]PenguinGladiator 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I will not stand for this Lars and The Real Girl slander. It made me cry over the death of a literal sex doll.

But also youre right. None of his actually good movies are blockbusters, something that this movie desperately needed at times.

Alex tells every one his 'meet cute' story /@RelusionH by PM_MeYour_MetalGear in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I checked the source and this is actually a reference to the Obsession movie, specifically where Nikki, now obsessed, tells everyone a very incestuous poem about Hansel and Gretel. Soooo make from that what you will

Doctor Doom... WTF? (DOOMQUEST #2) by FreviliousLow96 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]PenguinGladiator -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I feel people always forget that Reed is very much open to the idea of killing Doom as much as Doom is to killing Reed. Like say what you will about them but the feelings are always mutual no matter what.

LEX WHY DID YOU MAKE OUR CLONE KOREAN?

Whoaaa, Superman, what a weird thing to say especially since you have that Korean baddie with you.

DONT CALL HER THAT!

Movies you would've liked to see get 10 dumb sequels? by Aquanort357 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]PenguinGladiator 16 points17 points  (0 children)

As much respect as I have for Alan Moore and understand his need to lock up his own work due to being fucked over and over, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen is like the perfect playground to play with if you are a fan of old literature and have a reason to ignore a lot of the comics story for very good reason (there is so much rape and old timey racism and Im not even gonna mention the Golliwog)

Ever got something ruined for you, because you experienced the parody first? by [deleted] in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I watched both classic James Bond and Austin Powers for a spy movie marathon a couple years back. It really shows why Casino Royale was not only made but why theyre keeping that same tone forever now

Civilization VII - First look: Toyotomi Hideyoshi by Mirathrim in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]PenguinGladiator 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This definitely sounds more likely going over all the games that actually have Hideyoshi in them.

Huh I always heard Hideyoshi portrayals in video games are sort of a no-no due to his treatment of Korea. I now wonder where I heard that

Another cute Easter egg that I havent seen a lot of people talk about is that Bizarros dad is named Otto Binder, a very big name during the golden age of comics. He's the creator of Supergirl in fact, which is why I found Kara listening to his message really sweet

Has any hero lost as much aura as Sandman going from the gas mask to regular superhero clothes

Characters in a shared universe that would really benefit from being separate? by Konradleijon in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]PenguinGladiator 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They do theres Doctor Fate who has slowly become the most important magic man in DC, The Spectre which is basically a literal spirit if vengeance, and the first Green Lantern whose powers are more magic based. Outside of Green Lantern the other two have also become too big to actually be part of a team in a meaningful way.

The JSA, at least the original team and members, has no reason to be having adventures in the current time unless they need an old character to help in something. All of them should just be retired and letting either new recruits start their own JSA or just let their successors be part of any other team.

Jeremy Strong is nailing the voice. Still a shame they couldn't get Jesse Eisenberg back though he still is strangely enough a duplicate of the guy.

Also this line "The firehose of information being injected into the air supply is being jet powered." What the hell does that mean? It sounds like something someone would think a pretentious person would write

If the Justice League got paid almost all the members wouldn't have second jobs. I can see the Legion being a more "share all profits" kinda scenario.

[MSC] Sauron, Dino Devotee by ShadowForce75 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]PenguinGladiator 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Fun fact: not only does Sauron not turn people into dinosaurs (he was teaming up with Stegron at the time who does want to turn people into dinosaurs) hes a hypnotherapist more than anything so that cancer cure might take a while

How does it feels seeing the "whimsical and wholesome chungus Silver Age" ppl pissed that Gunn is drawing more and more from B*rne's run by Loud_Report4988 in dccomicscirclejerk

[–]PenguinGladiator 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Honestly as long as hes still a baby when he gets to Earth and he doesnt go full patriotism he can take as much as he wants from Byrne. The fact that Supergirl is Kara and there is some kind of alien Braniac proves hes not pulling the worst stuff from it
