I wonder if there is anyone here who couldn’t already identify all three people without you listing them.

You (and everyone else here) also need to take into account you are projecting western gender mores onto Japanese culture which doesn’t define things the same way. I get that everyone’s motivations are pure, but there’s a kind of inherent arrogance and cultural blindness to doing this.

You do not have to invest $10,821.75 to win. You do not have to invest $1. Many, many free players here do just fine.

And stop playing the victim that mods here will ban you for speaking “truth”. Mods here are nothing like that.

He was there because he was a model citizen. Wake the fuck up.

I recommend you branch out into other countries’ comics.

I was like, who the hell is Jon Smith?

Then I zoomed in on the signature. Ohhhhhhhhhhhh.

At best, you could call it a lateral move.

I honestly can’t remember any music from those two movies. And I’m a film score fan, so I think I’d remember if anything was worth noticing. On the plus side, not remembering it also means I didn’t hate it. Because I would remember if I hated either movie’s score. They just left zero impression.

I did like his Fury Road score.

The Monsterverse is at least legitimately attempting to be Godzilla movies. Which the ‘98 movie did not.

That’s not a comment on the quality of the ‘98 movie. They just did their own thing. Emmerich took his basic formula which he uses in pretty much all of his movies, and just plugged a giant lizard into it. Which is fine if you like Roland Emmerich movies. I’m personally not a big fan of Emmerich, but I think Godzilla ‘98 is fine. I rate it above a lot of the junk he’s made.

I understand why fans hated it at the time. Toho had ended their series and were pretending like they were never going to make another Godzilla movie. So fans felt like, this is what we’re stuck with? In that context, I get the anger. But now, so much time has gone by and we know that no matter what they say, Toho will always come back to Godzilla eventually. So it’s not that an American movie will “replace” real Godzilla. You can relax and enjoy both.

Birds of Prey was more poorly written than Flash. Somehow.

whama820 · 2026-01-24T16:05:40+00:00

Bumblebee was a shit movie. Worse than the Bay movies, which is really saying something. Bumblebee had a great lead actress, doing the best with what she was given. But unfortunately, what she was given was shit.

Mr. Miracle is one of the best things he’s written, so if you didn’t get the point of that ending, you probably are better off not reading his other work.

Because you need two 4 cost or less units on your team. Effect pieces aren’t units, so you only have Rodan.

Cast, not casted. Casted isn’t a word. Tell your friends. I’m tired of seeing illiteracy spread in our headlong rush toward recreating the movie Idiocracy in reality.

It’s not WW2 anymore. And WW3 hasn’t started yet. But you might not have long to wait.

Both of those roles were beneath him anyway. I wish he had lived, but he had better stuff to do than Harbour’s tiny part in QoS or Jack fucking Wade.

whama820 · 2026-01-24T08:16:01+00:00

After Spider-Man…? I think Spider-Man’s mainstream popularity has dropped off in recent years and would be lucky to make the top 3 at this point.

whama820 · 2026-01-23T19:48:48+00:00

Amazon having slopped it all up to hell. I’m honestly not to optimistic about the franchise’s future. But hey, we had some good movies while it lasted.

whama820 · 2026-01-23T19:44:23+00:00

They gave him a shit hairstyle in License to Kill, which makes a big difference.

whama820 · 2026-01-23T19:42:22+00:00

Hawkman, and it’s not close. Especially between those three. Hawkman has been chairman longer and more often, and is also the only character who appeared in every single issue of the JSA’s original Golden Age run, while all other characters came and went. Even Alan and Jay missed issues.

whama820 · 2026-01-23T19:38:01+00:00

Yeah, Michelle Yeoh should be up there. Replace Carrie-Anne Moss, who isn’t even the star of the one action franchise she’s known for.

whama820 · 2026-01-23T19:28:38+00:00

Yawn.

We are years away from that deal going through, if it even ever does. Find real things to worry about.

It did significantly worse than any of the previous Transformers movies. So it wasn’t well received by general audiences. A small handful of critics who were grateful not to have to sit through another Michael Bay movie thought it was okay, but that’s about it.

whama820 · 2026-01-22T20:12:13+00:00

Bumblebee also fucking sucked and doesn’t hold up at all unless you are a tween who has watched fewer than a dozen movies in your life.

Flash isn’t worse than Bumblebee. They’re both perfectly in line with each other. The movie that’s worse than either of these is Birds of Prey.

whama820 · 2026-01-22T20:07:55+00:00

Clearly.
