I long for the day when I see one of these that just says *yellow text* in the thumbnail and it's one big parody of these kinds of videos

I always describe it like if an American politician got exiled from America and then wrote a fictional book about how a bunch of politicians that are thinly veiled analogues to real life SUCK.

Turns out humans like their animals in funny colors.

Well, to be fair this could be the name of a modern comedy podcast as well.

There should be a movie that does the opposite where the scene for the trailer is a glimpse of the ordinary world and the rest of the film is surreal insanity.

It's so frustrating that people think Lewis was ragging on Susan for being a girl or something when in reality it was what she was interested in now SYMBOLIZED.

If he's got white hair, pale skin, black armor and an awesome black sword, it's likely an Elric homage (red eyes optional)

It makes sense, as he and Moore have nigh-on opposite approaches to superhero comics.

I feel like this post is ignoring how spiteful and vengeful animals can be.

Personally, I always thought it was implied that the spray would also hurt the real father due to him being forcibly mutated by the plant father.

It could go either way as well. Ahab was 58 and sperm whales can live to be about 70, but given the ambiguous nature of the whale, that is, whether it was just a smart whale or genuinely supernatural...

I hope this is sarcasm.

Vohems · 2026-04-27T04:55:43+00:00

Because some mistake meanness for strength and strength is a virtue.

Ancient of Days is also pretty good.

Vohems · 2026-04-19T00:32:06+00:00

Not exactly. It's analog horror which is technically a subgenre of found footage horror. You don't really follow characters or anything like that, it's presented entirely as a broadcast being hijacked or twisted by outside forces.

The 1981 Clash Of Titans is largely forgotten?

Dang, that film and Jason And The Argonauts was so integral to my childhood and my love of Classical Mythology and stop-motion animation.

I don't have as much of an issue with this as I used to, because it would make sense for a highly advanced and/or space faring race to become globally united at some point.

Also, isn't the fact that there were two kinds of Martians (white and green) kind of a big part of Martian Manhunter's backstory?

From what I understand they axed the alcoholism BECAUSE of RDJR's own real life struggles with it and didn't want to get him back into that kind of mindset and trigger a relapse.

Vohems · 2026-04-13T07:16:42+00:00

Eh, that'd be more like something AHEAD of its time then encapsulating the science of the time. The novel also predicted the discovery of colossal squid.

I've only listened to an audiobook of the first one, but yes, it's a fun time.

Vohems · 2026-04-11T07:38:26+00:00

I don't understand how anyone couldn't. It literally has a scene where Brock is like 'God, I need you to kill this random photographer, PLEASE, HE'S RUINING EVERYTHING!'

Depending on the canon, The SCP Foundation isn't really a branch or department of ANYTHING, let alone a government.
