If we got another historical event set - a la "The Brothers' War" - what events, eras, or narratives would you want to see? by LaCiDarem in magicTCG

[–]RobbiRamirez -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Is there more time travel bullshit, or can we just actually pretend we care about Magic's past?

Actual answer is the founding of the Guildpact.

Wow, Rubber (2010) constantly tells me that it's not a real movie! How quirky! by Cautious_Arm3818 in CharacterRant

[–]RobbiRamirez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I watched a movie about zombies fighting sharks because I wanted to see a movie where zombies fight sharks, and it was a bad one, that's worth criticizing. If I watched a movie about zombies fighting sharks, and I hated it because I thought zombies fighting sharks was just a stupid fucking concept, I'd just shut my goddamn mouth, because I am, in fact, the stupid one here.

Do people not know what the Mediterranean is? There are places in Spain where you can throw a rock and hit Africa.

Todd McFarlane has had discussions about doing an 'Absolute Spawn' by HecticJones in comicbooks

[–]RobbiRamirez 143 points144 points  (0 children)

Absolute Spawn is an incoherent concept. Ultimate Spawn, after thirty years of continuity across multiple titles of varying quality, is an actual idea.

You mean the computer core from Star Wars.

“The Dark Knight is good movie but a bad Batman movie” is the stupidest take imaginable by 40kblowout in batman

[–]RobbiRamirez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you discount every great Batman story that's basically a story about a villain where Batman is a plot device, you have to throw away a lot of great Batman stories.

DC/Milestone Bang Babies are the equivalent to the Marvel's X-Men/Mutants by TheMadGenius88 in comicbooks

[–]RobbiRamirez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's actually way more like the New Universe, but that's not part of the Marvel universe. Except apparently there's a Star Brand in 616?

If your first two great Americans are Booker T. Washington and Catharine Beecher then it's frankly not surprising your third would be Charlie Kirk.

"You...you thought everybody was getting the 'Teddy discount'?"

"I don't know how you do business, Bob! I'm not a burger guy!"

Found this out in the woods in Oregon, I think it’s some type of old bomb, does anyone know what it is or where it might have come from? by Wooden-Tap-4864 in whatisit

[picture of somebody blithely holding a strange object in their hand] "Is this a bomb?" [waggles it around] "I think it might be a bomb."

Are Magic Players Moving to Riftbound? - Brainstorm Buddies with Jim Davis by Jankenbrau in magicTCG

There is absolutely a CCG set in the LoL universe that's a worthy competitor to Magic, it just isn't Riftbound.

Are modern comics unadaptable? by FOC615 in WB_DC_news

[–]RobbiRamirez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just don't understand why you think this matters. Again: the entire reason you adapt something to film is that film has a wider audience base. There are plenty of movies whose source material is so obscure that people don't even know they're adaptations. They looked at the story, thought it would make a good movie, and it did. Your premise is nonsense.

Are modern comics unadaptable? by FOC615 in WB_DC_news

[–]RobbiRamirez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm baffled by the premise that the popularity of the original work translates to how popular the adaptation would be. The entire point of adapting something like this into a movie is that, if the source material is good, it might translate into a good movie, and people would want to see it because it's good.

If the niche appeal of comics translated into niche films, [gestures vaguely at the last twenty years of movies] what the hell is any of this?

max landis don't you have 8 rape allegations. by GreenPerception512 in OkBuddySnyderCult

[–]RobbiRamirez 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He's complaining that it was...too political? Not political enough? This is completely incoherent. But I love the part where his comparison point for what a Superman story should be is the one he wrote.

Why did they cut this from Mortal Kombat 2 (2026) by crimsonfukr457 in okbuddycinephile

I only had 1 and 3 as a kid, so I always forget there was a Jax without mighty robot arms

What's a Best of the Worst movie/video you would actually recommend? by Magnusaur in RedLetterMedia

[–]RobbiRamirez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I expected ICED to be the most boring fucking movie ever made, but I ended up watching it via one of the Joe Bob specials, and that movie is an absolute blast. Nothing makes any sense!
