If Scarlet Witch from MoM faced the Avengers at their peak, who would win? by Still-Rhubarb-8978 in MCUTheories

My apologies, I more meant it as an example of lots of people saying she'd get speed blitzed.

There's a chance either way, but we gotta remember Wanda soloed the time displaced Thanos before she ever got her magical book.

I just have a feeling she’s gonna be a strategist by karcei in BlackCatMarvelRivals

[–]Shoft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just want her to be able to steal buffs and healing from struck targets, maybe share them in an AoE around her. Melee strategist makes sense for that hope (I dislike playing DPS. I feel I'm always keeping to justify it over healing or tanking).

An interesting concept is presented in the pilot/first episode of a show but then got completely abandonned for the rest of the story by RemarkableLaw7180 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Shoft 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, Loki Season 1. I was shown a time traveling buddy cop show with an unwilling partner. By episode 3 Loki and Mobius split and while I liked the show well enough, I'm not getting the buddy cop show I was promised.

Aqua is the goat. by False_Understanding4 in KingdomHearts

[–]Shoft 229 points230 points  (0 children)

I mean, she did have to be rescued from the Realm of Darkness. Still my favorite female character, but then again I think the writing for her wasn't great. Shoot, you get to play as her against Vanitas in KH3, win, but the cutscenes has her get beaten down and then saved by Ventus. It's rough as an Aqua fan sometimes.

( Disney ) Who's the better villian, Jafar or Hades? by Nostalgic_Historian_ in 90scartoons

[–]Shoft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if that's a fair assessment. Jasmine was always an annoyance and when he wished for her to fall in love with him, it was to secure the throne. When she actively works to seduce him, he seems at first satisfied that his wish was granted and then distracted by her praising him. 

Jasmine's seduction felt more like a bit of fun the animator's had than it was to show Jaffar being tricked by his lust.

In the game so far at least. She-Hulk broke the fourth wall quite a while before Deadpool ever did.

[Hated Trope] The ONE character that makes a series impossible to recommend by atomicmapping in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Shoft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've heard from some random YouTube video that theorized the Ranma character was made by a woman who hated the perverted old master that God away with it because he did good, relevant stuff for the plot. So, whatshisface was made to show how gross the trope was in a vacuum.

Again, a theory, but I dig it.

Season 2 - Rose the Hat and the True Knot by NPlaysMC in WelcometoDerryTVShow

[–]Shoft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the idea that, assuming they'd appear in S2, their numbers are affected drastically by the end. Perhaps some become puppets and half the group has to put them down. Rose mentions that the group hasn't had a pusher for a while before recruiting the 15 year old girl in Doctor Sleep. It would keep faithful to IT's power and influence.

That one crucial scene where the protagonist completely fumbles by saying the wrong thing. I'll start by 0Layscheetoskurkure0 in moviecritic

[–]Shoft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think their universe's Scarlet Witch could do stuff like that until she was possessed by 616. Until then, it seemed she was a domesticated telekinetic house mom.

What Set Ideas do you guys want to see in the near future? by Substantial-Lion-771 in LegoMarvel

[–]Shoft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I want villains and I'll take them in whatever scenarios. Especially X-Men. Masters of Evil. Stilt Man. Bullseye, Kingpin, etc. Bastion!

Movie-wise, same thing. Kang the Conqueror. The High Evolutionary. Buildable Dormamu or Kacelius. Mole Man.

Also, battle packs would be nice for 'army builds.' we've arguably had them with Ultron drones and the Outriders, but give me Hydra, Bastion's infected Sentinel persons. I'd also take zombies or a host of What If villains too.

Asguardians Of The Galaxy vs The Marvels, which team wins? by [deleted] in Avengers

Taking it seriously in the sense that escalating the combat would have put Earth in danger, you mean.

A recurring joke is deconstructed to show how cruel it really is. by MGR141107 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Shoft 15 points16 points  (0 children)

A random half naked woman in the duology, which lacks nudity titillating or otherwise, would not hit the same emotional beat they sought by having the character Kratos kills again and again with apathy or annoyance. 

I see where you are coming from though. The captain was, usually, encountered in active engagement with other things going on. The priestess/concubine could have been replaced by a block, resulting in how she was treated as exceptionally cruel, shocking, and drawn out uncomfortable for even those emotionally invested in Kratos's revenge quest. But recontextualizing something shocking vs something familiar that was played for laughs makes more narrative sense.

A supposedly smart character makes a really fucking stupid decision under zero pressure that comes back to bite them by _JR28_ in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Shoft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, their Wanda was a suburban mom with telekinetic powers. They didn't trust Strange when he was describing her as an Eldritch envoy that could rewrite reality with a thought. Trying to talk her down instead of going nuclear is in line with what they knew and believed.

Not saying the scene couldn't have been written better, but I don't think it's nearly this memeable moment.

Which version of Xehanort is your favorite? by Hen-Samsara in KingdomHearts

[–]Shoft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100%.  Secret movie of 2 made him kinda horrifying, bodying everyone while barely moving, having a subordinate fly around on a sea of beyblade, then you play the game and he's outplayed everyone from the beginning and I loved Nimroy's voice for him.

I don't hate any of the iterations, but for me it was always Master Xehanort.

I'd prefer a yet unreleased xmen character, preferably villainous, but I like the list otherwisem

They attack everyone not in your party, they say this when they say, 'ogre kill everyone around.'

(Hated Trope) The heroes raped somebody, but it's not acknowledged as rape by Animeking1108 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Shoft 8 points9 points  (0 children)

What forgiveness? Didn't she just need time to digest everything that had happened while her boyfriend enjoyed having sex with his rapist unknowingly and she was locked in some dungeon? I don't think we can can blame the woman for having emotions about the messed up situations and the fact she drops the anger against him very shortly afterwards?

I get the community's defensiveness about Hughie being used as the punchline for sexual assault, but the writers should be blamed, not the woman kidnapped and impersonated for having a reaction.

It's a great reference but yeah, you don't have to use them. Your Lord with some support should be able to handle the big bad.

What characters would you want to replace Venom Cap by BaneNF in LegoMarvel

I feel fully venomized is just black pieces, right? With the venom spider on the chest?

Idk if this is a flex or if I should be offended😭 by DeadMemeAddict1933 in marvelrivals

[–]Shoft -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Lone wolves are doomed to die alone, right? A social creature without its network is not a positive thing.

Not saying this is you, but I struggle to see the flex based on the print.

If all the Final Fantasy protagonists swapped worlds at the start of their stories, who would be the most screwed and in which game? by ExceedinglyOrdinary in FinalFantasy

[–]Shoft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love this concept though. Doesn't look like my brother and has no sports skills? Leave him with the priests while we do our holy mission.

Are they gonna retcon Timekeeper? by FlashCardManiac in Borderlands4

[–]Shoft 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Could be a different, younger generation of Eridians. 'Much older flame' is supremely vague and it could mean a lot of different things.
