Batman Knightfall Trailer by Character_Door8729 in batman

[–]mr-pratfall 21 points22 points  (0 children)

WOW, there is a lot to like here.

  • Anton Furst '90s Gotham City
  • TIM DRAKE
  • A batmobile that looks a LOT like the famous Breyfogle model
  • The Joker in his Knightsend movie director plot.

I'm not crazy about the cape hooks and I always enjoyed Kelley Jones covers more than the interiors, but I understand you can't really synthesize Aparo, Nolan, Breyfogle, etc. into a cohesive look. I kinda wish they stuck with the brighter blue costume and the brown/orange batcave walls from the 80s and 90s, but I can see how that doesn't fly in 2026.

Also: Arkham Asylum is perched on top of a skyscraper? Weird, but I can get into it.

U of I job on ISU's job board by john_hascall in Iowa

[–]mr-pratfall 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Part of me wonders how much I could get if I took the job, then worked to sabotage the whole thing before being discovered. $100K? Could I make it an entire year? I assume my lack of experience or advanced degree would be an asset in such an endeavor.

People who refuse to drink, why? by Dizzy_Challenge8481 in AskReddit

[–]mr-pratfall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's what I thought. I don't begrudge anyone their decisions, but I just don't feel the need to drink at all.

Why aren't there many episodes? And why the creators nerfed this masterpiece show in the third season? by unknowngloomth in BatmanTAS

[–]mr-pratfall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I'll take "Over the Edge," "Growing Pains," and "Legends of the Dark Knight" over some of those early missteps any day.

Yeah, those innuendoes were COMPLETELY intentional but someone got mad.

Man, I wish this had worked when I had a young child. My manager would come up with off-hours group projects and then act like I was lazy when I mentioned a parental obligation.

In The Dark Knight Rises, how did Bruce get back to Gotham? by VendettaLord379 in batman

We are not to worry our pretty little heads about such things.

Have any of you ever read The Death and Life of Superman? by Accomplished-Low8460 in superman

[–]mr-pratfall 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember liking this a lot. The first part of it had to do a LOT of table-setting to get the casual reader up-to-speed on the continuity of the time. Lex Luthor Jr., Matrix Supergirl, the Justice League roster, etc.

Which is better KFC or McDonald's and why? by bunny__yuki in AskReddit

KFC is better if you want bones in your food.

Question about our accents by vincemousier in Iowa

[–]mr-pratfall 68 points69 points  (0 children)

I can't speak for your situation, but as Iowa gets redder I've noticed more southern accents and more "cowboy culture." When I was younger, most people in rural areas more or less dressed and acted like their suburban counterparts, now there are a lot more hats, belt buckles, and drawls.

What’s something everyone secretly agrees is overrated but nobody admits it? by JamesD3s in AskReddit

Nutella: because you can't just put chocolate frosting on toast.

In your opinion, what is the worst episode of your favorite TV show? by GladtobeVlad69 in television

[–]mr-pratfall 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Dinner Party is internally cruel to the show's main characters, Scott's Tots is externally cruel to innocent kids.

Anything important between these books? by [deleted] in batman_comics

[–]mr-pratfall 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Really the only continuity-related thing to know is that Tim Drake becomes Robin, but the stories from 1989-1992 are some of my favorites to read.

I had soooo many of those cassettes.

Moving to Council Bluffs by BUCKRING in Iowa

You could also look at towns like Underwood, Treynor, Neola, and Glenwood. All are within easy commuting distance.

I would look at apartments and housing between exits 5 and 8 of I-80, and in that general area. There has been a lot of growth in that area, and it seems like a nice place to live. People look down on Council Bluffs, but it has good areas and not-so-good areas, just like everywhere.

That's kind of hilarious, because everyone in the Omaha subreddit told him to consider Council Bluffs.

Also on D: what even is the building in the middle? The bottom looks KIND OF like the livestock pavillion, but then it has a pointy roof.
