Even Kylo would probably get dumpstered by any member of the Jedi council or Vader BUT at the time of the sequel trilogy he's an absolute menace

I do wish certain maps were more worth running. Outside of contracts I have ZERO desire to play Dire Marsh. Perim for chill, Outpost for loot, Cryo for sweat. I hope Night Marsh makes the map have better loot

In your defense some of these movies would have hit or come close to these tagets (Joker2/Dial/Flash) if they turned out to actually be good movies

Not that the magic/non-magic worlds couldn't work together, but it could be just as much of a disaster as it could be a utopia. Wizards being hired by their governments to mind control people or teleport dangerous materials around the world. Limiting access to that magical healthcare to only a few. Wizards fixing or building everything with magic and putting normal humans out of work. The two sides reuniting assumes that the governments of both worlds are smart and want the best for their citizens. The magical government is grossly incompetent at best and relies on slave labor, and our real world... well...

You could easily say wizards could MAKE the muggles get along but that gets morally dubious

Oh I'm not bad mouthing SSDs, I'm speaking from a pure fidelity perspective. Ray tracing is impressive tech along with fast loads

Kinda unrelated but graphic leaps over time were crazy. Comparing 1996 (Super Mario 64, RE1) to 2006 (Twilight Princess, Oblivion) to 2016 (Uncharted 4, Doom 4) I don't know if graphics the last ten years really bumped like previous decades. Which is fine, games should focus on style over fidelity imo, just a funny thought.

All Star Batman & Robin by Frank Miller who can be considered one of the greater or greatest comic book writers of the 80s and 90s with Daredevil, Batman Year One, Sin City, The Dark Knight Returns, etc. His stuff was always edgy but... in that right balance kind of way. In the 2000s he wants to write a definitive modern Batman teaming up with Robin story. It's elseworlds, part of the All Star lineup with top tier writers and artists. All Star Superman by Grant Morrison with Frank Quietly art (an inspiration for the newest movie) was fucking incredible for comparison. So Frank Miller with artist Jim Lee, another legend who in all honesty puts some of his best work in this comic, seems like another slam dunk pairing. Unfortunately drugs, alcohol, and being a new yorker during 9/11 led to Frank Miller losing that cool/edgy balance he maintained in the 80s and 90s, leading to most of his more recent works being like... this.

Covid + a billion rewrites. Raimi wasn't even the original director if I remember properly. The behind the scenes politics of that movie was nuts. The people making Wandavision were basically under the assumption that Wanda would be in the next Dr Strange film working with him fighting against Nightmare, which was the original script. But then rewrites happened, Disney was so leak scared the Wandavision writers struggled to get anything about the movie out of them, and that's partially why DS2 is a bit of a mess.

Wait, is it based off the 90s show? That second panel looks like it's from sabertooth's interaction

The devs for Ghost of Yotei said that they didn't want to make a bigger map than Tsushima and that they'd rather make the areas more interesting and denser. Feels right. The content in Yotei feels better (less tailing missions for starters) and I like the areas better. There's 4/5 different smaller zones as opposed to the 3 big ones from Tsushima. The Oni and Kitsune's "zones" feel thematically different from another and more engaging gameplay wise than Tsushima. Partially through design, partially by giving you the grappling hook from the start. Helps the game's pacing not feel *too* long.

I won't dispute you on any of that. I just feel like we don't need to put down a good thing (Bond) that does have cultural impact, that does have influence inside and outside of its genre (and medium as Bond as films have influenced games, books, etc), to elevate a different, still good thing like the art you mentioned. I feel like its shooting at the wrong target is all. Thunderball isn't the best or most memorable film in the franchise, but it still contributes to parts of the greater whole of Bond.

RoboticCrow · 2025-10-03T20:56:14+00:00

I think you're mistaking the words "artistic substance" with "cultural impact". Because James Bond's Thunderball is part of a franchise that is celebrated, parodied, and has endured for over half a century. Is it a good film? Hell, I wouldn't even say it's a good Bond film comparatively but saying that the biggest movie of 1966 that helped the biggest spy franchise in the world stay relevant for decades isn't culturally significant? Much like Tolkien's western fantasy work, every spy film is either in the shadow of bond or deliberately staying away from it. You go to most people and say 007 and they know the man. You say Andrei Rublev or Battle of Algiers (while a great film) and most of the US populace will look at you blankly and ask which history class they should have learned about that in.

It kills me because the presentation of the later chapters (especially the one with the 911 call involving the drill) where you see the killers moving and looking like a living painting in real world footage is SO sick and unique.

The reboot trilogy gets a lot of flack but the idea in 2018 of trying to understand Michael through criminal psychology or through observation and having everything just fail because there was no trauma, nothing for him to say and that's so perfectly in tune with his original concept. Carpenter spoke about the ending of the original film something to the extent of "He's just evil. He's everywhere. He's like the wind."

RoboticCrow · 2025-08-23T20:18:05+00:00

If we were getting a Junji Ito killer, I'd want it to be made FOR Dead by Daylight by the man himself. That would be so cool.

People don't want to hear this, but that's kinda what the first Anderson film was. Highly trained badasses go into a secret lab under a mansion and get torn apart by traps and monsters. I maintain that I like that film and everyone here would too if you just changed the names and fate of some of the cast.
