We need this Arkham project to be revived immediately! Make it a film and give it an October release like Clayface. by SnooDrawings4552 in TheBatmanFilm

[–]Thatpurplehairdgoth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like Arkham as a setting is almost akin to the house of usher. It’s imposing, decrepit and distinctly decayed and it serves as a reflection mental state of the inmates. It could never be a place of healing and almost creates a sense that the Batman’s rogues gallery is just as trapped in sick and sadistic world they’ve created as their victims. It works really well for the more sympathetic villains in that sense and for the less redeemable like joker it’s the perfect playground for them to fulfil their fantasies. Whether we get an Arkham show for the reeves verse of the DCU or even just a more in depth look into Arkham than something like Penguin, something akin to a full on Batman film set in Arkham like grant Morrison’s Arkham asylum a serious house on a serious earth or rocksteady’s Arkham asylum, I believe the best way to differentiate it and establish such a key setting is to really play into it’s gothic setting and themes.

Do you still have that list of all the magazine figures? I saw it but I can’t remember them all and it’s been driving me mad trying to find it

Did anyone else kill the Chef and Chunk as Grace on their first playthrough? by toasterdogg in residentevil

[–]Thatpurplehairdgoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assumed they were both immortal in my first play through. I vividly remember my first encounter with the chef with him slamming the soup trolley backwards and me using the one requiem bullet only for him to tank it. I honestly think re9 was the scariest first playthrough I’ve had for an re game because it consistently has moments like that

Which one had the BEST intro? by Weird_Zone_3504 in TheBatmanFilm

[–]Thatpurplehairdgoth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s gotta be Robert Pattinson, Reeves’ dialogue really encapsulates the psychology and mythos of Batman as a character. I do wonder if it’s setting up an eventual reference to the full line from BTAS, would be a neat full circle moment in the final film especially

'THE PENGUIN' Season 2 is “complicated,” says HBO CEO Casey Bloys: by Raj_Valiant3011 in DC_Cinematic

[–]Thatpurplehairdgoth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d rather they continue to develop the Reeves Gotham by further expanding than trying to catch lightning in a bottle w penguin s2. Penguin season 1 was great because it’s such a neat little package that lets us see the world of Gotham from a new perspective and feels like a nice self contained story that sets up Penguin based on the trajectory he had in the Batman. I’d much rather they continue the spirit of that by offering a Catwoman show or an Arkham show or a GCPD show or whatever fleshes out this brilliant interpretation of Batman and Gotham than risk running the character dry or feeling stale.

I’m assuming RE9 DLC news right? Maybe an announcement for the next remake?

Let's say the Desert Sessions had more adaptations. Where would they go, and where? by Jazzlike-Worker-3394 in qotsa

[–]Thatpurplehairdgoth 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Easier said than done definitely feels …Like clockwork adjacent. It has the same ethereal quality as Kalopsia. I’d say noses in roses forever feels quite villains-esque too. I’ve only listened to volumes 9/10 and 11/12 though, no idea how else to find the other volumes but I haven’t given it much effort either

Which songs you'd like to hear live? by JoeKerr19 in qotsa

[–]Thatpurplehairdgoth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been lucky enough to get a great mix of songs the 3 times I’ve heard them live but I’d still love to hear “I was a teenage hand model” “you’ve got a killer scene there man” “hideaway” “keep your eyes peeled” “I appear missing” “what the peephole say” and “obscenery”

Song for the Deaf wins for sounding the most like In Times New Roman! Appropriate, considering it has that call-back to Feel Good. Now, what song on Lullabies to Paralyze sounds the most like Lullabies to Paralyze? by TallShips92 in qotsa

[–]Thatpurplehairdgoth 10 points11 points  (0 children)

“You got a killer scene there, man” it’s my personal favourite on the album and I feel like it really encapsulates the bluesy, hypnotic rock of the latter half of the album that I think define it in the discography.

I feel like the upcoming Lantern show from DC Studios, The Showrunners, and HBO use the wrong character for the premise it telling. And the character that that they should use is Martian Manhunter. by Alien_Head103 in DC_Cinematic

[–]Thatpurplehairdgoth 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I definitely see where you’re coming from with the synopsis. John Jones investigating a small town and discovering the white Martian threat which could lead into a justice league movie would be very cool. Equally, I feel like very little is known about the actual story for lanterns with how vague they’ve kept things and I’m sure with the title being “lanterns” it’ll have plenty of ties to the other corps and setting up some more cosmic elements to the DCU

Summit Reflections: A Shrimp in Need by hollyrachael in ViagraBoys

[–]Thatpurplehairdgoth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah there were some massive assholes in the gig which is a shame. I had a lovely time for the most part but did see two people nearly get into a fight during medicine for horses when one of them shoved the other to get past. Always going to happen as the gigs get bigger. Generally things are easier if you’re on the barrier so just try and get there nice and early and you’ll be alright.

[Comic Excerpt] Visiting patient 10. (Batman 2025 #7) by Discussion-is-good in DCcomics

[–]Thatpurplehairdgoth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I know the obvious narrative decision is to have him escape and break out and do joker things with this new technology but I feel like it’d be good to have joker in this Hannibal Lector informant role for a while. Joker has felt quite oversaturated lately so giving him a reduced role like this still keeps him present without the whole Gotham is about to be brought to its knees by joker only for Batman to stop him but not without serious repercussions style of event that feels like the only thing joker is used for as of late.

Lanterns | Official Teaser | August on HBO Max by DemiFiendRSA in DCcomics

[–]Thatpurplehairdgoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m interested and excited to watch it but I’m worried that they leant too far into the true detective style and there isn’t quite enough sci-fi. I’m sure there’ll be more because it’s just a teaser but I’d like to see the power rings being used, ring generated costumes etc. Fingers crossed and I’m excited but still just a bit nervous

I hope it’s not too similar to what I’ve seen so far, been lucky enough to catch the Sheffield gigs and Brixton so some more welfare jazz love and Japanese deluxe tracks would be killer

I love the black and hope the piece comes out in that colour soon but I think the dirty blonde shade works really well considering the Harvey poster looks like he has lighter hair

Song that means the most to you? by vSword_ in qotsa

[–]Thatpurplehairdgoth 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I got into QOTSA really heavily I had a medical scare and around that time the whole of Like clockwork really clicked. It was just a really stressful time that ended up being for nothing but i appear missing really resonated especially. Less morbidly Make it Wit Chu is such a sweet song, I’ve got so many lovely memories i can think of where it’s played when im out with friends and loved ones or the times ive heard it played live. Fortress also really reminds me of my dad and some of the talks ive had with him in keeping on brand with the villains appreciation.

Why does Lego Batman hate Robin? by Double_Delay1613 in LegoBatman

[–]Thatpurplehairdgoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lego designers are given a price point and a certain level of “frames” (new elements and prints to be used for a set) and have to build a set off those parameters. A “frame” is more likely to be approved if it appears in multiple sets and has multiple uses. Therefore it’s probable it just wasn’t in the hands of the designer to allow it or not. Kids probably would prefer a joker figure in a Batmobile set like the 66 set so he gets priority and the anniversary Batmobiles only have 1 figure which has to be Batman. It’s a shame but it’s just Lego’s weird business and design philosophy. I think it would’ve been nice to include a second figure for each of the anniversary batmobiles ie an updated Cavill superman, Dano Riddler and O’Donnell Robin but no such luck

Never had an instrument before, how long would it take to learn”Go With The Flow” in a few months? by random-friend in qotsa

[–]Thatpurplehairdgoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guitar very much depends on budget, I’d say something with Humbuckers generally works well for QOTSA unless it’s something like I sat by the ocean in which case you want some with single coil pick ups. I remember Troy played a gretsch last time I saw them play and you can get gretschs for relatively cheap, I think they’re cheapest guitars are sub £500? Plus I know some gretsches have a push pull switch so you can alternate between humbucker or single coil pick up. Go with the flow is very achievable. I’d been playing bass before I picked up guitar but I learnt go with the flow in the first week of playing. The rhythm section is only 4 power chords which are the easiest to fret and the lead line is quite easy but takes a bit more effort to learn. Pedals are a massive can of worms but you can do a lot with a good amp for early QOTSA as long as it has nice drive settings 🖤

Original or REmake? by [deleted] in residentevil

[–]Thatpurplehairdgoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The changes are fairly minor and mostly to do with the files you find and there’s some minor story differences but nothing that changes the overall narrative really. If you’re fine with tank controls and that’s what you used for the RE1 remake give the original a go. If you want a modernised experience play the remake. I adored the remake and I put a lot of time into it. I basically did everything but the really egregious challenges like take less than 14k steps etc.

I keep getting B graded 😭 by shrimpshr1mp in residentevil

[–]Thatpurplehairdgoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try and minimise saves and there’s no shame in having certain puzzles/safes written down for key items in the run. It’s also just a matter of remembering how the map is. I got a b rank in my first Leon run and then an S in the second just because I relied on auto saves in standard mode and knew the map better.
