So apparently the new thing is people getting mad that Superman would get *any* value from the Kents as they seem to think Superman's identity begins and ends at "immigrant."
Just to show you how nonsensical comics TwiXter is now....

Because no one wants the obvious explanation of "The transporter only existed to cut down on costs, is basically magic, and they were still at a time when they didn't care about 'consistency' because nitpicking nerds didn't ruin everything yet."

I love the common thread in the Benoit Blanc films is just genuinely good people who are just *good* without any specific "motivation" who are faced against a cruel and uncaring world, but who endure due to a commitment to their morals and an unwavering decency to do right by others.

Just absolute perfect framing.

So I watched the third Knives Out film; again Leblanc isn't the main character, again the suspects are unlikeable.
Again, the crime is seemingly impossible and the resolution is a tragedy more than anything else.
Agatha Christie without the classism or racism.

I love how everywhere Ghost Rider was at this period.
It was really just a character coasting on strong visuals, but a Ghost Rider appearance was always something special back then.

It really is amazing how simply asking people to name a *single* instance of superheroes in fiction doing the horrible, authoritarian, fascist stuff they claim they do all the time just completely throws them for a loop.

I just figure have Gollum burst it out at some point.
The Lord of The Rings movies were rated PG-13. By current rules that means that each film could contain one use of the word "Fuck". Which line are you altering to insert the most useful swear word?
"I can't carry it for you, but I can Fucking carry you"
"I can't carry it for you, but I can Fucking carry you"

Today I learned that a *LOT* of the stuff people are mad at superheroes about is stuff they've made up in their heads.
Kinda makes me wonder why waste that effort.

I love how people just use the blanket assumption that Watchmen was "realistic."
We have no baseline as to what superheroes would *actually* be like because they don't exist. It's like trying to say what elves would "realistically" be like.

And Watchmen was all about how superheroes, when done realistically, are innately authoritarian.

Hey remember when a bunch of idiots were trying to deface priceless works of art and we had to pretend to be okay with it because it was apparently done for the "right" reasons, and not call it out for the destructive, performative nonsense that it was?

I hate when people use the term "realistically".
Usually it tends to just be shorthand for "I can't prove this for certain, so I'm just going to use this vague term to proclaim victory without doing anything to sustain it."

"Your future is a horror story, written by your crimes!" is such a metal line it's amazing it's in a *Muppets* film.

"Alan Moore said superheroes are inherently fascist."

"That superheroes are inherently fascist."
"No, what was his actual line of reasoning?"
"I dunno. But he said it. That should be enough."

Animation takes time and it's best not to overwork the people making it.
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is amazing (hey, I’m sick and it was on TV) but how are we still 2 years away from the second part?

Mignola's Hellboy stories are interesting because they don't really match up to a traditional 3 act structure. They're more like endurance tests for Hellboy to go through and see how he can survive any number of crazy things thrown at him.
Reading this for the first time was incredible. And last week, I felt like I got to read it again for the first time. (Thanks, @mikemignola.bsky.social and @jesselonergan.bsky.social.)

Marty Supreme feels like a "fake movie" to me.
Like the type of movie you'd see on a show like 30 Rock or FRIENDS about an actor *trying* to be in a big, thoughtful award winning film with a ludicrous premise, and everyone around him is walking on eggshells.

Is it weird that this feels to me like a movie trailer from the early 2010's?
I mean, not in a *bad* way, but it kind has that flavor of "The internet is full of spoilers now, best make it as vague as possible."
