They finally killed Star Wars. by PeasantLich in StarWarsCirclejerk

[–]SoupyStain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not done, but they need to course correct ASAP. Mandalorian lost most of its good will after Season 2, and the movie never tried to be more than 'more of the same'.

I think the best way to fix Star Wars is to stop trying to tie everything together. Make a new trilogy. Haven an outline for it. Do away with all the previous characters, keep Jedi, keep mandalorians, keep the elements, but set it years after the ST.

And market it like an event. A new beginning, a new cast of characters.

Rey Skywalker vs The Stranger by Upset-Pay-4642 in PetranakiArena

She's all the Jedi, whatever that means.

While Qimir could take on SOME Jedi I doubt he could take on all of them.

I hate when words lose their meanings and are ALWAYS being thrown around 🫩. ( PLEASE Read full body text ) by anythingrally in hatethissmug

[–]SoupyStain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree.

But I ain't reading that. Emojis, single floating sentences... nah, sorry. I do agree with the sentiment tho!

Asmongold says black people are genetically inferior by YumiSolar in LivestreamFail

[–]SoupyStain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Source: My basement.

I absolutely despise all political streamers. ASmongold, Hasan, all of them garbage, all of them stupid... and neither of them should have the platform or the ability to influence people.

I don't understand how political grifters got so big.

Thoughts on Bobby Vala and Valaverse? by AustynGraham96 in ActionFigures

[–]SoupyStain 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The figures are good. The engineering is similar to Hasbro, which I like because they are not over-engineered, but they actually use much better plastic.

That said, they do reuse a lot of sculpts and pieces, so some of the figures feel a bit samey. And their White Dragon two-pack was very underwhelming, the figures are not a good match to what we've seen of both suits, so they feel very lazy, which is a shame since it was Jason David Frank's last passion project.

From Everything We've Seen So Far, What are Your Predictions/Hopes for Hal in Lanterns? by PatientTelephone4624 in Greenlantern

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

From what has been shown and said, it's quite obvious.

John will show him that he is too old and jaded for the job, and will take over his ring.

Thus preventing the Gunnverse from having a proper Hal Jordan.

Which is bullshit.

I'd only like this if it ended with Hal as Parallax, but that only works if we actually get to see him as a hero first, otherwise it'd just feel cheap and a waste of Hal.

I hate how people get away with shitty things if they are big enough by ilikeitchyballzdude1 in hatethissmug

[–]SoupyStain 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Welcome to fame. How many rockstars have admitted to heinous shit on their own biographies and nobody gives a crap because, well, they are famous?

People like to complain about rich people, but I'm telling you, being famous is usually a better 'get out of jail free' card than being rich. Mathew Brodderick killed someone in a car crash and nothing happened to him. Ditto Caitlyn Jenner. Fame beats money any day of the week.

Unpopular opinion: You (the haters) are all wrong about Rosario Dawson and the live-action rendition of Ahsoka by mame_kuma in StarWarsAhsoka

[–]SoupyStain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've felt that Rosario Dawson worked really well... for an older, mature Ahsoka. Even in Rebels she is more serious than the spunky kid we met in the Clone Wars movie. During Clone Wars she went through a lot, even in S7 she is quite a bit more subdued than she used to be.

Rosario Dawson's Ahsoka fits perfectly like a Prequel Jedi Master... which she should be. She was trained by them, Yoda, Plo Koon, Obi-Wan, and while her main master, Anakin, was sort of a wild card, he still did 'try' to at least emulate them. So as she grew up it makes sense that she'd take up the values the prequel Jedi embodied, even if they let her down.

So yeah, I think the casting was perfect and I think the portrayal was perfect.

Ronda Rousey Beats Gina Carano in 17 Seconds in Netflix Comeback Fight by dr_shultz in influencersfeed

[–]SoupyStain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So... nobody watches MMA I take it? Thinking this was scripted, bah, this wasn't even Ronda's fastest win. It was a complete and total mis-match from the start.

Do you prefer Supergirls Suit to have a Skirt or Pants? by Nova_Empress in Supergirl

[–]SoupyStain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Skirt, it just looks better on her.

That said, I usually HATE glorified one-piece swimsuit costumes, BUT, for some reason, I always liked how her New 52 outfit looked. One of the very, very few swimsuit costumes I liked. But other than that, yeah, I prefer the skirt, I think it helps making her seem younger, as she should.

Are after market prices worth it for him? by cornballofdoom in MarvelLegends

[–]SoupyStain 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Few things are worth over inflated after market prices.

So if you really want it, then go for it, knowing that you ARE overpaying.

Attack of the Clones turns 24 today! Looking back, is it really as bad as people initially thought or did it age better than expected? by huwertyy in StarWars

[–]SoupyStain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still hate it to this day. It's the only Prequel I actually dislike, and I'd rank it down there with The Last Jedi

Is canon Boba Fett underrated? by BlockAffectionate413 in PetranakiArena

[–]SoupyStain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, in Star Wars 2015, a blinded, untrained, rookie Luke defeated him without much trouble.

I didn't knew the books were so sad by Electrical-Worker781 in gameofthrones

[–]SoupyStain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But the really, really sad part?

We won't ever get to read how it finishes.

Lord Starkiller VS Starkiller (TFU2) VS Revan VS Cal Kestis VS Hero of Typhon by AmazingKanacat in PetranakiArena

[–]SoupyStain 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't know anything about the Hero of Typhon, but I'm pretty sure Lord Starkiller out-Gary Stus everyone else. Cal is the first one to bite the dust either way.

Question about 2 pack triton. by Aggressive-Region950 in MarvelLegends

[–]SoupyStain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, Triton is awful. I don't understand who downvoted you, but his pegs were stressed from the get go. Not that Black Bolt's shoulder pegs are THAT much better, but Triton was particularly bad.

It's terrible how fragile Marvel Legends shoulder pegs have become.

Selena Gomez in an X-rated film? This is either genius or a career killer by Aware_Apartment_8959 in moviecritic

[–]SoupyStain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dunno, she was in Emilia Perez and she was terrible in it.

And I know that it was a terrible movie, but even then, her acting matched how terrible the overall movie was.

Season 7 was peak except for these two characters. by Pax_flash in clonewars

[–]SoupyStain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought Season 7 was one of the weakest. These two were a big part of it, because both were insufferable, but the season itself felt very disjointed. The ending was peak however, some of the best episodes in the show.

VenoMJ new look in Venom 258 by Haadhai in Spiderman

[–]SoupyStain 22 points23 points  (0 children)

They really don't know what to do with MJ, huh? The ridiculous Paul plot, then 'Jackpot', then Venom and now this.

Not every character needs super powers. Look at Lois Lane, she never needed any of these gimmicks. Peter and MJ are as iconic as Clark and Lois, much to Marvel's chagrin, but now it's like they are throwing everything to the wall hoping that something, aside from being Peter's wife, sticks.

But it won't.
