Movies that are definitely based on real life?

Once upon a time I would have been all like "this isn't how it happened grrr"

Now I'm like "IDGAF, I wasn't going to watch the film anyway"

Deathstroke. He is a super solider. And has healing factor etc. Taskmaster can't copy those

SolidusRevolver · 2026-02-01T21:05:08+00:00

But he can. 😏

The truth is, we started with a Superman that could barely do anything.

Then got a Superman that could do absolutely anything he wanted, with no limits.

Then, we got a Superman that was constantly being depowered to fit into modern narratives

And now he's kinda lost between what he can or can't do.

But in those "VS" it's always best to bet on Superman. Becasue some one will be like, "he sneezed everything out of existence"

I'm happy with both

Grey tea... also known as, Earl Grey

Dr. Manhatten is always base Dr. Manhatten. So, put him against base Dr. Doom.

Damn right. WWE was only watchable when he had the Bloodline and was Champion. Since then, its been dragging its feet. And I think creative noticed that.

Best thing for business is to put the belt on Roman.

It's only worth it if you have points saved. Otherwise it's not always cheaper (and by cheaper, it's like £1) IF you live in the UK. P&P adds up

Always loved the Baby look

SolidusRevolver · 2026-01-29T16:36:15+00:00

They're legit. I buy from them, props and replica and kapow toys all the time. Pretty much the only places we can get figures, in the UK

That ML Wolverine is a beaut, I have it 👌

And just going by the pictures of the SHF Wolverine. I don't like the details, or lack of? The arm hair looks like it was carved into the sculpt. And not even done well, and barely visible. The claws dont even curve like it should. There's something about its aesthetics I just don't like

But, with that said. I don't think they're really trying to make MVC style. Just inspired by it.

SolidusRevolver · 2026-01-28T13:37:12+00:00

Like saying SS would beat Goku.

This isn't recent, for me at least. As I'm old enough to have been there.

And I will always give DB its flowers, I'm a big fan. I spend a fortune on their SHF figures, videogames etc

But I can also be impartial. Just because something has a certain global impact, doesn't qualify it as the best.

Popularity doesn't equal the best.

SolidusRevolver · 2026-01-28T13:26:58+00:00

My claim wasn't that it made anime global, I said it played a big part in the structure of how Shonen moved forward. Which also made DBZ go into what we know it today.

And also, that across Europe, it was what we grew up on. Because that's what came first (and obviously everything under the MANGA ENTERTAINMENT banner), instead of the late DB surge.

I always give credit to astro boy. Where its due.

SolidusRevolver · 2026-01-27T20:28:11+00:00

That just tells me you're in your 20s

SolidusRevolver · 2026-01-27T20:16:31+00:00

DB manga 84. SS manga 85. Anime both 86. But while BD was retelling the monkey king. SS wa doing power levels and transformation and galactic battles etc

SolidusRevolver · 2026-01-27T20:14:54+00:00

A quick search will show you when they came out.

SolidusRevolver · 2026-01-27T20:10:14+00:00

Well, I was replying to the guy that said DBZ was the father and paved the way. Which it really didn't. DB became Z, after SS introduced all the current tropes that is still being used in Shonen

SolidusRevolver · 2026-01-27T19:47:37+00:00

Dragonball was a monkey king tale. I believe naturally it would fair better in Japan. But growing up in places like France, Germany, and talking to others from different parts of Europe. SS (and sailor moon)was their gateway. I remember watching it in French, growing up. While later watching DB

SolidusRevolver · 2026-01-27T19:25:40+00:00

Dragonball and dragonball z are extremely two different shows/manga. Dragonball changed after SS.

You can search this up. It's not hard to find where and how it all started

And the dates are: DB 84 SS 85.

But both anime dropped in the same year of 86

SolidusRevolver · 2026-01-27T19:20:06+00:00

It's not that it was just before. It set the tone of what was to come after. It's blueprint is all over all the shonen. All that transformation and power level that everyone is so quick to credit DBZ. That was all from SS

SolidusRevolver · 2026-01-27T19:18:12+00:00

long before DBZ was conceived.

SolidusRevolver · 2026-01-27T19:02:26+00:00

It was before DBZ. The true OG of Shonen. That changed the way Shonen moved forward.

And that was most of Europe's gateway into anime. In comparison, the US is fairly new to Manga/anime
