More Americans would protest this then they would protest actual executions lol

[–] [email protected] 20 points 4 weeks ago

I think it might be seen as an epic grimdark reboot, and the same treatbrains would expect a sequel where all the murdered characters are now murderfucking zombies that are murderfucking whatever the first movie didn't have time to slaughter yet. so-true

All I can think about is the number of deathly hallows tattoos in that crowd.

Sorry but this sucks, Haz sucks, it's stupid, you can detect the same edgelord excitement in his plan as the 14 year old who writes essays for school about torturing and killing Barney but in doing so reveals that he is still very emotionally invested in Barney

I would simply invent and deploy a new type of professional mingler who would go around striking up convos with people leaving marvel movies, prompt them to describe the movie, and adopt that bullying affect of "oh yeah? sounds sick dude, (snickering) 3 hours long huh?"

(streaming services are the problem here, capitalist alienation strikes again)

[–] [email protected] 24 points 4 weeks ago

Haz has the same energy as Sid, the bully from Toy Story. He wants play with your toys so badly but he plans to also blow them up with firecrackers.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 4 weeks ago

Meh, weak. When I'm supreme leader I'm going to make all professional athletes kiss and hold hands before the match. Nascar drivers have to use tongue.

Me roped into this nonsense because of my vocal approval of One Piece:

"And that official canon, because it's so grimdark and edgy, will make the edgelords even more excited and they will demand even gorier remakes!" so-true

[–] [email protected] 13 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

First rule of capeshit is that heroes (and villains) never die, and even if they do, someone will take their capes*, so there's infinite material for sequels.

*This of course sounds worse once you get older than 13 and understand it's because character development is expensive and not always successful, though 90% of DC universe and 80% of Marvel seems to make the latter point entirely moot.

Even Harley Quinn can't be allowed to permanently move on from the Jonkler and actually be happy with Poison Ivy; that has to get reset too. debord-tired

I love the idea that the state is going to enforce an "official canon" for Marvel and Star Wars. Like if you write a fan fic about Luke and Han having a gay love affair and try and pass it as canon the Fiction NKVD is gonna bust down your door.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 weeks ago

Of course comrade, we need to review all the material we confiscate to make sure it lines up with official state canon.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Add in Eric Cartman and you have yourself a deal.

And Richard Mortimer

Ugh. This is my exact ideology. Is this what it feels like when libs realize they think the same things about Russians that Hitler did?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 weeks ago

Trick question: libs aren't capable of such introspection

i-think-that I think star wars and marvel are cool and they should be allowed to exist post revolution

spoilerafter IP is dismantled and anyone is allowed to do whatever they want with them, copyright and canon are a fuck sicko-flipped

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 weeks ago

while i want a blossoming off original art in such a world i also really want to see where artists take things when everything becomes public domain.

like how theres some really amazing fanfics out there that put the original works to shame. but with a crew of thousands of dedicated people working on it and huge grants from the State Art Fund

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Star Wars I agree but I think Marvel slop should go. Even pre-cinematic universe it was going downhill.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 weeks ago (3 children)

Can we at least keep based Magneto the Nazi hunter around? I will never get tired of him murdering the shit out of fascists in the comics

Bad excuse to post this goober please let me dodge this part of Twitter 😰 I follow anti-imperialist Arab accounts and Infrared is trying to gain notoriety with them. Hinkle is sidling up to Yemen and Venezuela. He's not a broken clock they have a strategy to use you guys as a relay.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

It’s weak.

Instead they should be shown to be hollow facades who can’t even bring joy into the world, the characters all get wiped out when the decaying infrastructure collapses under the fury of a category 6 hurricane.

Pretty sure they already did that in Loki

I think this is lame and stupid edgelord bullshit for babies.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

Sometimes, some people try so hard to be "mature" that they are very immature about it, like wanting a violent death for cartoon characters.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Literally Happy Tree Friends lmao

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 weeks ago

That was a bad time; a lot of people I knew were really into Happy Tree Friends for a while and kept showing me clips of it.

One was enough to get the idea, but for a time it seemed like there was an endless appetite for "what if cute thing that's friendly for all ages... but horribly murdered?" so-true

“Barney bad. That is all.”

This is just let’s kill Barney for cynical leftists

Also what’s with the Mickey Mouse hate? Disney and Disney adults all suck, but Mickey is just a cute mouse. The Disney fandom doesn’t even give a shit about Mickey Mouse. Free my boy Mickey

[–] [email protected] 11 points 4 weeks ago

Just don't let @[email protected] near him

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

but Mickey is just a cute mouse.

I got some bad news buddy (CW: racism)

4 hours long. Entire movie will be just Yakov Yurovsky shooting every single American hero in existence, while Shahab Morabi reads their names and comments.

To be fair, Marvel also did something similar once, but it was less fun.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 weeks ago

Just hang them as the fascist status quo heroes they are

OLD GODZILLA WAS HOPPING AROUND

Um, my broken clock is right 25 hours a day though...

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

As long as SpongeBob SquarePants and Squidward survive, I'm up for it. Mr Krabs can get fucked though.
