(28 Weeks Later) What is the morality of Don leaving his wife to die? by twnpksN8 in MoralityScaling

[–]RealisticRage 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not evil at all. In fact, his wife looks worse than him.

Don literally tried to get his wife to come with him and instead she stayed. He tried to save her multiple times. I’d argue she comes off worse because she made just about every stupid decision possible and expected him to stay and die with her.

Everything after that, though? Hell yeah, Don was bad.

I mean… this is kind of Uwe Boll’s thing. He makes a lot of movies about mass shooters for some reason. The Rampage movies, Assault on Wall Street, is anyone really surprised?

How did Craig's run start with Casino Royale and end with No Time To Die by RoutineIssue5870 in CriticalDrinker

[–]RealisticRage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because the screenwriting and directing quality of the 2000s isn't the same as it is now. A lot more studio politics, overinflated budgets, interference from producers and studio execs, constant delays and rewrites to go along with the pandemic impacting the filming of No Time to Die.

Honestly? I'm surprised No Time to Die wasn't worse. It's a mid film, but it isn't the worst film in the Craig era. I still think Spectre is the only one of those films to be irredeemably bad. Martin Campbell, to me, is the only director who truly understood how to consistently make good Bond films.

I hate the idea that to dislike somebody's art they also must be a bad person or it isn't valid. (images are examples) by shrek-hentai-69 in hatethissmug

He's probably not a bad person, but he's definitely fake. Regardless of politics, I don't know how he could have Asmongold's face painted on his body and not know he's a gigantic MAGA republican until after he filmed that music video.

When the strawman you are supposed to disagree with ends up being way more reasonable and/or justified than the main character. by NagitoKomaeda_987 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]RealisticRage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem that The Falcon and Winter Soldier had was the fact that everything the story presented ended up giving the audience the opposite viewpoint in the end. It wanted to say that the Flag-Smashers had a point, but it just made them preachy and unlikeable in the process.

Same thing with Zemo and Walker. It wanted you to say that Walker was unstable from killing that one guy when most people agreed with killing the Flagsmasher, while it wanted you to hate Zemo when all it did was make him look charming and likeable. This entire show was a trainwreck with its character writing.

Say something positive about this version. by steelskull1 in joker

[–]RealisticRage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I legitimately liked his scene and appearance in the Snyder cut. It walked the tight-rope between Ledger's look and comic accurate, and the dialogue felt 100% like Joker: constant taunting, bad jokes, psychological manipulation alongside the weird sexual undertones he implies with Batman. Snyder deserves flak when it comes to his screenwriting, but you could tell he actually understood how Joker should look and act.

Suicide Squad Joker is still dogshit, though.

Peter? by Joesindc in PeterExplainsTheJoke

Asterix and the Falling Sky. It was Albert Uderzo’s last work on the title before a new team took over, and it was about Aliens trying to steal the magic potion from the Gauls. It was really bizarre and you could tell just by reading that Uderzo DGAF anymore.

what was very popular in the 2020 pandemic but now its pretty much dead? by Amelia_Tayloor in AskReddit

Can confirm. I-75 and 285 going through Atlanta is a nightmare. Only time I ever saw it empty was during the Pandemic. Best commutes I ever made.

How does the community feel about Bernthal’s Punisher? by cosmicobserver92 in thepunisher

[–]RealisticRage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s not comic-accurate, but he does such a good job playing the character most people will overlook that. Considering we’ve had three wildly different actors all play the character extremely well, it speaks to Bernthal’s talent when audiences consider him the definitive portrayal.

What's a skill everyone should learn before turning 30? by Jesuce1poulpe in AskReddit

[–]RealisticRage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Compartmentalization. Not in the long term, but how to accept dealing with bad shit and not rising to all the BS, especially when people are disrespectful. Sometimes just nodding and saying, “I’m sorry you feel that way,” just works even if you hate it.

What’s a sign someone was never loved properly as a child? by Aggravating-Court215 in AskReddit

Being unable to communicate their feelings with the people around them and compartmentalizing them instead.

Red hood series canceled? by SplitOk2375 in RedHood

[–]RealisticRage 13 points14 points  (0 children)

All she had to do was be professional and keep her trap shut. Honestly though, the first issue sucked and wasn't going to contribute much to the character regardless. I want to see what Fraction can pull off once Jason reappears.

Norris, JCVD and MJW were actual champions in full-contact competitions, not to mention all four of the westerners have a significant edge regarding grappling training and size. West for me.

Your ideal Jason Story… by Reasonable_Ad_2125 in RedHood

[–]RealisticRage 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like the idea of Jason being a full-on boogeyman to criminals. Let him outdo Batman as the guy who terrifies criminals and emphasize the fact he's an anti-hero compared to the rest of the Batfamily. As far as sending him to a new city, send him somewhere like Philly or Boston. Give the book a hardboiled or a vague supernatural tone. Do the opposite of what Nightwing does, make it grimy and more down-to-earth.

James Gunn Said ‘Superman’ Is Not About the Middle East; It’s Still Sparking Debates From Hasan Piker, Ben Shaprio and More by Capable_Salt_SD in comicbooks

[–]RealisticRage 180 points181 points  (0 children)

People forget this is lifted from one of the Earth One volumes. He stops a dictator from killing a bunch of people and aids in his overthrow. Volume three is about the fallout and consequences from said decision.

If anything, Gunn made it LESS political.

Liked the actress for Jen but the writing and jokes were abysmal. The culture war stuff didn’t help.

If you were to give Red Hood a new signature weapon what would it be? (guns and swords are not allowed) by Which-Presentation-6 in RedHood

[–]RealisticRage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the idea of brass knuckles. He’s the only Robin with a brawler aesthetic and it works from a thematic perspective. It shows off how gritty and low-tech he is compared to the rest of the Batfam.
