Oh, so much reading to do~

Don't worry everybody. The diplomat has arrived!

Because she's tired of everyone arguing'n'shit.

Posted, and Jackson's being his usual depressive self, as well as expressing no small amount of dislike for our foxy new captive.

I'll write up another post for Orion soon. Was going to wait for Light, but Orion can still dick around with the guitar for a bit. Add to the ambiance. Be so hip he can't see past his pelvis, so cool people like sticking him into the small of their backs, so fly low aircraft are a serious safety concern.

@Tenish the Mighty

Every one of those remarks call into question the veracity of said remarks.

I'll try to post soon.

How's y'all's summers going?

Good, got to see Age of Ultron finally, fucking amazing movie.

@RaijinslayerReally? I was pretty let down by it. In my opinion It was just a clusterfuck of special effects with little going on in way of plot and way too many one-liners not to mention the laughable way in which they forced Hawkeye to be relevant in some way. To me it felt like they cobbled together all the trailers and commercials together into two hours of explosions. But that's just my take on things ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Done posted. Is a'ight.

Saw Ultron. Is a'ight.

Mad Max was better.

I'm gonna see Mad Max this week, I have high hopes.

Also, confirmed, Orion wants the firehead.

@SpawnlingMy thoughts exactly when I read that bit.

@Arcanaut I agree that the plot was lacking, but I believe the characters and their interactions with each other, as well as a really good villain, made up for that. Ultron took us away from the less than great plot in a way that, lets say, the elf guy from the second Thor movue failed to do. I think the fight scenes were freakin'amazing, and having taken a class in animation myself, I can't help but appreiciate all the hardwork that went into them. Favorite scene had to be Hulk vs Iron man, loved every second of the beautiful carnage.

@Tenish the Mighty

Dammit you found August's spirit animal.

Sorry for the lack of posts guys, was going to post on Sunday but I smashed my head during a 15k so I haven't been in the right state of mind heh~

@RaijinslayerDon't worry, the movie rights to Fantastic 4 belong to Fox not Disney. Then again considering how the last ones were...@ConstantineStory time!

@Arcanaut@Raijinslayer

Initially I hated AoU, and while I'm still not the biggest fan, I see it for what it is-- an intermediary. You have to remember that these are movies descended from comics, and so storylines are different, the movie isn't engaging the whole universe like it could. It's essentially a bottle episode with decent character development (although Joss' writing can be grating at times) that mainly exists to bolster the plot lines to come; the creation of fucking sperg lord Vison, establishing Wakanda and Ulysses Claw-- FUCKING AMADEUS CHO'S MOM-- and some other stuff, like creating more tension between super heroes and the government, notice how Iron Patriot is War Machine again? Also Falcon looking for Winter Soldier because they have to keep him relevant somehow. The broken up Avengers is also setting up Ant Man which is going to be a disappointment, as well as Dr. Strange and Miss Marvel cough cough I mean Captain Marvel.

tl;dr, it's all a giant set up comic for more things to come-- with a lack of cinematic flow and a shit soundtrack, it was still a strong 6/10.

Tenish knows what's up tho, Fury Road was easily the 2nd best movie of the year,

right behind the Fallout 4 trailer

@Darcs I prefer Ms. Marvel (Kamala) to Carol Danvers. It's really sad that they have to make these new characters legacy ones, especially when it doesn't make any sense, like the female Thor for instance. There's plenty of room in Norse mythology for there to be a character, build her up as a reoccurring character in Thor's or whatever and then give her a line of her own. I mean for fucks sake she has a 'secret identity' and secret origin because they weren't trying to create a new and interesting character they were trying to get sales from a demographic that hates comics to begin with.

What was I saying? Oh yeah, these days I just read Ms. Marvel and old Blue Beetle (Jaime Reyes) comics.

So...our guiding light seems to have vanished.

Anyone still interested in keeping this alive or should I call the attending physician and get a time of death?

Still here--

Life support is the ONLY MORAL OPTION
