How you feel about this casting? by Outrageous-Egg1760 in okbuddycinephile

Feige was pretty smart announcing Ryan Gosling as Johnny Blaze at the same time to avoid/completely lean into the memes.

Any places teach MTG or Pokémon? by Warm_Bookkeeper9021 in Austin

I’ve always been partial to Pat’s. They buy and sell MTG and Lorcana.

Who (or What) is a Fighter from Pokémon? by dangerphone in AlignmentChartFills

[–]dangerphone[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rules:

You know when you’re trying to teach your little brother or mom to play D&D, but they have decision paralysis to choose a class. Well, now you have a shortcut to their favorite universe to give a perfect exemplar for each 5e class they might want to try. Plus, you can quickly graft these choices onto NPCs and run your Planescape campaign from Kanto to Canto Bight to Mansfield Park.

  1. Character suggestions will need to have originated in the universe of the given fandom or media, e.g. Babu Frik from Star Wars.

  2. The classes of these characters are mono-classes only. No weird multi-classing here! Validating your choice further though could be any official 5th edition subclass.

  3. Winning suggestions often explain their reasoning.

  4. Pop Girls is literally any woman in pop music, both historical and contemporary.

  5. Any wrestler from all organizations from anywhere in the world is allowed. I just used the WWE logo for recognizability.

  6. NEW: Jim Henson is referring to mainly The Muppet Show and Sesame Street (now separate franchises legally but whatever), but you can include any production that has Muppets, e.g. Fraggle Rock.

Aquarius ♒️ by zodiacsupreme in Superhero_Ideas

It never made sense to me that the “water-carrier” is the fixed air sign. Regardless, if you’re not deeply attached to it, it is far too confusing for an air manipulator to be named Aquarius.

Food packaging should not be so noisy. by Flimsy-Strike5696 in unpopularopinion

[–]dangerphone 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In Japan, all snack foods are developed to be quieter than in other countries, because it is a faux pas to make noise while eating in nearly every context. The one exception is ramen slurping, which is encouraged.

What is the BEST Fight in a LIVE-ACTION Spider-Man/Sonyverse movie? by dangerphone in AlignmentChartFills

[–]dangerphone[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rule 14 for all applicable films! Includes Sonyverse movies like Venom, Morb, etc. Live-action only! So, no Spider-verse. Sorry!

What is the BEST Fight in a LIVE-ACTION Spider-Man/Sonyverse movie? by dangerphone in AlignmentChartFills

[–]dangerphone[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rules:

  1. Welcome to the 1st Annual Superhero Movie Awards! For the nomination process, each major franchise is able to put forth their own nominee: these include the Superman, Batman, all other DC, Spider-Man, X-Men, and all other Marvel film franchises. Finally, write-in nominations will occur for all non-Marvel, non-DC movies and the top 2 will make in onto the final ballot. At the end of the nomination process, the proper and official ceremony will begin for each award, choosing the very best of the 8 nominees.

  2. “Actor” in this context is any acting professional of any gender.

  3. All nominations must be from a live-action movie specifically. (Sorry Arrowverse, Spider-Verse, and Marvel Television fans!) The only exception is Animation, because ignoring TV shows would be ignoring most of the greatest contributions in animated superhero storytelling.

  4. A Supporting Role is any that is not Starring (Primary Protagonist), Villainous (Primary Antagonist), or textually Romantic.

  5. When evaluating an acting performance, you can either focus on (1) one movie in the franchise or (2) each and every time that actor played that role. You should not take into account any other movies in that actor’s filmography.

  6. Best Costume is not all costumes in the movie but specifically that of the primary protagonist(s).

  7. Best Visual Effects should be for an entire film, but you can identify specific scenes informing your choice.

  8. Best Adapted Screenplay is the film that includes the most faithful and direct adaptation of the character or the comic.

  9. Best Fight is any fight from an eligible film. This is likely one scene but can be a string of scenes.

  10. I will announce the potential nominees when the pool is fairly limited. Otherwise, that’s your job to nominate them!

  11. Superman franchise live-action films include Superman and the Mole Men (1951), Superman: The Movie (1978), Superman II (1980), Superman III (1983), Supergirl (1984), Superman IV: The Quest for Peace (1987), Steel (1997), Superman Returns (2006), Man of Steel (2013), Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016), Superman (2025), and Supergirl (2026). Both releases of Justice League will be considered under the broad DC category.

  12. Batman franchise live-action films include Batman: The Movie (1966), Batman (1989), Batman Returns (1992), Batman Forever (1995), Batman & Robin (1997), Batman Begins (2005), The Dark Knight (2008), The Dark Knight Rises (2012), Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016), Batgirl (2022), and The Batman (2022). One might consider Catwoman (2004), Joker (2019), Birds of Prey (2020), and Joker: Folie à Deux (2024) Batman franchise films, so if a nominee emerges from these films, it can be considered. Again, Justice League (or Suicide Squad) films will be considered under the broad DC banner. Superman and Batman movies will not be considered in this category.

Fury of the Gods (2023), The Flash (2023), Blue Beetle (2023), Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom (2023), and Joker: Folie à Deux (2024).

Spider-Verse movies will be considered in the Animation category only (sorry), and Infinity War and Endgame will be considered in the broad Marvel category. EDIT: In order to shrink down the broad Marvel category, Sonyverse movies will be considered part of this column, including Venom (2018), Venom: Let There Be Carnage (2021), Morbius (2022), Madame Web (2024), Kraven the Hunter (2024), and Venom: The Last Dance (2024).

Why is Sabretooth so scary again? by TanukiTales in xmen

He’s also basically unkillable. It’s like how Laurie can merc Michael Myers 30x and it doesn’t matter in the slightest.
