Even separating the artist from the art, I hate Singer’s superhero films. I’m sure the “superhero costumes r stoopid” mindset has always been around, but I don’t recall it infecting the movies, television, and even the comics to any great degree before Singer got his hands on the X-Men. Now superheroes gotta wear “realistic” costumes with extraneous textures & buckles & zippers & straps & plates 'cause so-called creators & so-called fans have disdain/embarrassment for the source material.

I’m not embarrassed by comics, but I do think the costumes worn by characters from those comics would look pretty stupid

You… you just proved his point.

I thought I remembered an old thread specifically to share pictures of dogs, but I went too many pages back in this sub-forum and found old wario64 threads, so I quit looking. Anyway, have these new pictures of my old dog, Tippi!

Still the same dog mentioned at the beginning of this thread, but the links work (for now) and I have a much better camera than I did then.

I feel like when the We Hate Movies make fun of Stan Lee, they include another guy, and I’m assuming it’s Steve Ditko.

Maybe, but I feel like that’s probably Jack Kirby. Lee co-created lots of characters with both of them, and both had similar issues with how much credit Lee tended to take for himself. Kirby was a bit more prolific, though. At least during his time at Marvel.

Last movie seen
Time

I’m watching The Godfather.

I haven’t finished it yet. I will, though, I promise.

Technically it’s great. It’s pretty, it’s got good music, a good cast, there’s quite a bit going for it. But…

I don’t care.

I just don’t get this movie. I don’t understand why I’m supposed to care that x got shot or y killed z because I never cared about any of them. It all just feels empty, devoid of life, and I’m not sure I can make myself finish it.

And I know this is blasphemy, and it honestly hurts to say this because I want to love this movie as much as every other movie lover on the damn planet, but it just rings hollow for me.

I pray that someday I’ll rewatch it and see the masterpiece that everyone else sees, but right now… I got nothing.

So what am I, a stupid kid who doesn’t know a damn thing about film or art or anything, missing?
