@@Sorakeyblademaster37 Both the Italians and Japanese were fascistic groups. Hell, the Italians invented fascism (or, well, took a modernist view of Roman Imperialism). Nazi's had the Aryan race, Mussolini had the Romans, and the Japanese had... well the Japanese. All believed that a strong nationalist government was best, where the undesirables (Jews, Romas, Blacks, Chinese, the French) were repressed and forced to work for their betters. All three had similar purges, albeit the scale was different. Most of the Italian purges were handled by the Blackshirts against other Italians (that I'm aware of), Hitler had the Jews and gays, Japan was viciously brutal with the Koreans and the Chinese. All three were adamant in recreating their "ideal" historic Empires and uniting their people. Italy had Imperial Rome, Germany had the Holy Roman Empire, Japan did what it does every night and try to take over the World (expand throughout Asia)! So all the nations espoused a similar rhetoric, believed in an Imperial power, and held their own race as being superior to others while committing atrocities against their lesser races. Nazis and Hitler are a culture touchstone, but that's all they are. I'm not advocating for Japan or Italy as being "literally Hitler," rather stating that Nazi Germany wasn't all that special. Hell, one of the worst offenses Japan is known for (Rape of Nanking) was perpetrated by most the main Western powers in Peking (Boxer Rebellion) less than 40 years prior. I remember reading in correspondence the raping done by Western armies appalled a Japanese general who found it deplorable. How much of that is true I don't know; every side declared the rest as being the primary offenders during occupation.

Star Wars, at least in the first 6 films, handled superhero characters and setting right. The Jedi are the heroes of the story, capable of telepathy, mind control, strength, exceptional piloting skills, and wielding weapons that can kill almost anything. Does that mean that the rest of the galaxy just sits on their ass and does nothing until the Jedi arrive? Nope. They make their own armies, make large fleets of warships, and have their own ideas on how to take down the Jedi. Not to mention the many Bounty Hunters and trained killers who specialize in Jedi-hunting. The Confederacy creates General Grievous and his Magnaguards, training Grievous in Jedi saber combat and arming Magnaguards with electric staffs that can block lightsabers. They managed to kill enough Jedi that Grievous became the big threat after Count Dooku died. The Republic trains Clones to be able to handle Jedi and to keep up with them, and they even have an emergency kill switch that can be used to take down the Jedi with the Clones, which they do in Order 66 after the Jedi tried to sack the Chancellor. The Empire was so successful in killing Jedi that by the time of the Original Movies, there were barely any Jedi left. Heck, even Episode VII got in on the action and created riot sticks that could counter lightsabers.

If some women can fight bare breasted with courage then surely you can too. This mainly seems to be a European thing, other ethnic groups seem to have different outlooks.

@@mendel7575 Mendel 5 month's late but i don't think humiliation of men in those movies is in bad faith, at least not entirely. It has more to do with the fact that its very hard to portray women as strong when they're surrounded by competent men. Simply by the fact that competent men will steal the spotlight and look stronger due to the fact that our specie is sexually dimorphic, with men having all the strength, physical or otherwise. So in order to make a female character look strong you have to either isolate her from the male competition or make the competition incompetent, be that due to stupidity, evilness or plot. You can try writing her as a man, but it will always look weird and incongruent. This is what happens in real life as well. We isolate female athletes for this reason precisely, female athletes cease to exist if they put into competition with men.

I would also add that Halo did this right as well. The Spartans are the superhero types, carrying out missions nobody can do, wearing power armor that costs as much as a battlecruiser, doing crazy stunts that blow up entire warships and ring-worlds and decimate enemy forces. The reaction to a Covenant tank group for a UNSC marine would be to run the fuck away and find some heavy weapons. Spartans? They take a pea-shooter, shoot the gunner in the tank, then either punch the tank to death or kill the driver and hijack it. But does it mean that the Covenant are just sitting on their ass doing little to counter this threat? Fuck no. As the Spartans progress, the Covenant send tougher and tougher enemies until the enemies the Spartans fight outclass them in everything: strength, armor, and firepower, and the Spartans in question have to use their heads to get out of this mess. But the Covenant actually do pick up the slack in Spartan-killing to the point where they got the Spartans down to a few left by the time the first Halo game pops by. Master Chief, the player character, is one of the few Spartans left.

The lore, not necessarily the games, goes out of its way to explain the consequence/downside of being a badass SPARTAN II. They are kidnapped by the government at young ages and trained Navy Seal-style for the rest of their lives while as partaking in fatal experiments that make them superhuman. In the end they are impossibly strong, fast, and intelligent; however, they emotionally mute and psychologically damaged. All they know is KILL. This makes less powerful soldiers like the ODSTs, who DID work and train to become badasses, despise the SPARTAN program. It also makes the new SPARTAN IVs look like pussies because although they went though intense training and super serums, they VLOUNTEERED to become soldiers; they weren't indoctrinated. Even though they "earned" their super-human abilities, they did not go through the cruel and inhuman trials that the older SPARTANS did.

7:57 Well, I think Gotham needs Bruce Wayne and Batman. A lot Batman media shows Bruce Wayne helping Gotham by donating money, but that doesn’t always work (fixing poverty won’t fix crime IRL, but especially in Gotham where most villains are wealthy). But I do agree that Bruce Wayne rarely fixes the corruption in most Batman media (though in Earth-2 he does reform some of his villains; and then fucking dies). A big problem here is that people take Batman too seriously. They aren’t able to treat him like other superheroes because he’s the “realistic” one (due to those good, but misguided Nolan movies), but he’s never supposed to be that (been fighting vampires since his third comic issue). I think we should just treat Gotham like any other fictional setting and follow the rules the writers gives us; if they tell us Gotham needs Batman, Gotham needs Batman.
@DelightfulTyrant8 жыл бұрын
Gonna be the "Actually guy" so you can leave the thumbs down now. Bruce Wayne came back after training and pretty much exterminated the mob and corruption to a reasonable level within 2 years, that's why outside of the early span of his career (in comics) it's the rogues gallery he fights. Beyond that, Wayne enterprises effectively employs 60% of the city on its own, not to mention the various work programs he set up, educational programs he sponsors, and he wrestled control of the banks out of the hands of the Juden and Wayne Financial is pretty much the tits. All this while making himself and his investors a fucking fortune (Estimated in the hundreds of billions for his own personal wealth), plowing super models as well as whores in capes/leather that call themselves heroes and villains, and punching his way through the kind of freaks that other superheroes wished they could pump out. Fuck ya, Batman. Also, on the freak in a cape topic, the best Batman stories are the ones where the entire population are deathly afraid of the fucking Bat-demon ninja thing that may or may not be a vampire and lives in the shadows, and Batman's stance on that is 'Fucking good, be afraid, you twats. Maybe you'll start doing shit right on your own.'

@@someguywhocanfly In a lot of iterations there's something called perspective. Batman isn't hanging around in the nice parts of Gotham he cleaned up. He's in the slums that need his attention. The better Batman stories show the better halves of Gotham through Bruce and the worst half through Batman. And even the focus is mostly on the rogue's gallery because they're the bigger threat. There's always going to be crime and bad parts of cities and that's why Batman never stopped being Batman. It's also why some of the best Batman stories tend to toy around with the idea of whether Batman has done enough for Gotham and has become part of the problem. Or whether Bruce should leave Batman behind because he's already done everything he could as Batman and anything further is to his own personal detriment and sacrifice. Thats my biggest complaint with shitty Batman stories is because a lot of them portray Batman as dark and gritty but forget it's just as important to portray the positive aspects. The best Batman stories out there are the ones that balance both the good work Bruce has done and the darker complex sides of being a superhero. It's why Batman has endured so long, there's so many stories and possibilities to tell because his origins aside from dead parents are largely ambiguous. Some versions have him training with various masters of different martial arts and crafts, the Nolan trilogy made him a League of Shadows member, some have him self taught, and some simply don't ever explore it at all.

You're right on almost all of your points except for the ones regarding the superhero genre. As far as the Marvel capeshit, you're definitely on-point but the issue is that it's Marvel capeshit so it's nowhere near representative of the genre as far as the original source material goes. Why? Because Marvel's currently pozzed to fuck and back and their Hollywood studio isn't actually trying to make good superheroe movies. Their goal is to make a product that hit all the points that the Big Bang Theory did but was a little bit better so it could skirt by in the general mass of the 'nerd' audience so as to not spark schisms in the communities. The closest they ever got to actually good superhero 'stuff' is, as you said, Iron Man 1, or maybe the first two Captain Americas, at least for the movies. The best they've done is the Daredevil Netflix series, which is actually fucking excellent IMO as a comicbook-reader. Many of the problems you have with Deadpool aren't present in the comics, though they do have their own issues. The game is actually a much better representation of the character. The character is actually quite tragic but is always used for slapstick or pitch-black comedy. He's a much different character in the comics then he is in the movie, where it's just his most ephemeral elements cut to fit with 'that prick from Van Wilder' and normie (read: garbage) sensibilities. All that said, I think you're a bit too harsh on the rest of the movie, contextually. Deadpool himself is bad, I agree, but the movie around them is very much a product of the realities of Hollywood. The thing was filmed on a shoestring budget, relatively, and that basically accounts for why so much of the movie takes place in the same shitty city with a bunch of g-list actors. It's kind of awesome that they even managed to have an authentic Colossus and the X-Men cannon even in the movie. And that's one more thing as well - it's not the MCU cannon, it's the X-Men cannon, where the X-Men and the Brotherhood of Mutants are the only real cape-organizations in the world and they're all feared and hated. Why? Bunches of reasons, but I can't go into them as this is already Trump's Wall of Text as is. Lastly, and this point kinda ties back into my first quibble, the superheroes in the actual comics that these movies are based on are quite different. I've read below why you liked The Dark Knight and I feel I should point out that Batman's comic setting is an excellent example because good Batman stories or runs are like The Dark Knight but turned up to 11 in the hands of a competent writer. Gotham is more than just a setting, it itself is a character in many of the good Batman comics because it's so much different than other places in the continuity: the majority of cops that are corrupt are totally unaware of other corrupt cops because there's so many crimelords that no one knows who's on who's payroll, the average citizen takes even children's toys and potted plants as potential muggers after all the shit the likes of Poison Ivy and The Toyman, at least two different international terrorists will show up and start operations in the city with the express purpose of fucking with the Batman at any given time every few years, Wayne Enterprises is one of the only forces holding the city together because it privately funds half the homeless shelters and donates to the municipal agencies, the list goes on. Now, there's obviously the caveat of 'competent writers' but it's still comics - multiplicity and time are luxuries they can afford. A bad run of Superman or The Flash aren't particularly damaging to the continuity on the whole because another writer can always come along and re-write the story years later or just retcon it the run after. In that regard, it reinforces, to me at least, the idea of just how much cancer Marvel Studios is, because comics are a modern-day mythology now and of all the stories to pick from and all the writers to get on the projects, these shitbags decided on Civil War and Joss Whedon.
@xxXEAMxx7 жыл бұрын
Yeah, the teamup comics are often either epic (Infinity Crisis, World War Hulk, the better Ultron stories, etc.) or a dumpster fire (the other Ultron stories, X-Men vs Avengers, Civil War, etc.). I think you may be misusing the term 'Worf Effect' as it's not a good thing but I get what you're going for. Thor and Hulk are hilariously underpowered in the MCU compared to even their lighter comic book adaptations, but my point still remains - good or bad, it's all part of the mythology and it can always be re-interpreted or made light of later. With the movies, they have to make everything a homerun or it'll always be a sore point that sours the rest of the universe and Marvel has been fucking the goat on that one (Iron Man 3, Civil War, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist all spring to mind.)

1. Iron Man 1. Nolan’s The Dark Knight. Steelheart, novel by Brandon Sanderson, was alright. Dr. Strange surpassed expectations (escaped many superhero trappings with its sorcery, though). I’m having a helluva time coming up with more here. I’d be hard-pressed for Eastern superhero-esque stuff, too, as I named the big three already. 2. Pfft. No. Psychopaths can be productive. ;] 3. Tatsumaki, the esper chick I showed in this video, is a good example. She has an actual ability that supersedes her physical limitations, so her throwing Genos into rubble is funny and makes sense. 4. Thing is, we unconsciously understand men dominate physical and intellectual fields by an _absurd_ margin. You can consciously disagree, but this is just the reality of consensus. So, to put a female character in a position _requiring_ ridiculous physical or intellectual prowess, but with as little cognitive dissonance as possible… you’ll need to do it very cleverly. Black Widow-type characters don’t care for clever. They turn our instincts on their head and go as big, dumb, and loud as they can, and all in a skintight suit for guys to gawk at. Now, I like eye-candy-a lot-but when it’s effortlessly breaking a dozen trained male fighters, my boner is kill, too. To justify a girl on a superhero team, she’s going to have to be more than just human. I can’t see a better way. Negasonic Teen Warhead in DP was alright, but Angel and DP’s gf’s ball-crunchers were weak because they’d never, ever get a knee to the cunt. Cheap shots all around. 5. I like how The Dark Knight handled it. You’ve got this city, Gotham, embroiled in crime and corruption, and this weirdo dressed like a bat’s almost making it all worse, so you’ve got the district attorney, Harvey Dent, doing clean-up. He’s such a cool guy, he even steals Bruce’s girlfriend. Then a maniacal mastermind shows up, not for city-wide domination, but just to fuck with Bats personally, which drives a huge wedge between Gotham and Batman. It’s like the city’s more than just a set-piece with more people than just Bruce living in it. That’s what I want. Cause and effect. Because if superheroes showed up tomorrow, you can bet your bottom dollar the media would have cameras so far up their asses, we’d know what they’d had for breakfast. I’m not saying create a bureaucratic red-tape drama-fest like BvS, but some push-and-pull is good. Spiderman-particularly Raimi’s films-incorporate this with Peter’s photo-op job, illustrating a public demand for Spiderman. It’s stuff like that that impresses me a lot. I’d also like for the citizenry to not be paralyzed every time a monster/supervillain shows up. This has happened too many times not to have at least one or two precautionary measures in place. But at the end of the day, a commenter did mention-superheroes were originally for kids, and yes, many superhero stories tend toward childlike sensibilities. Is it really worth reforming superheroes enough to make them more enjoyable for _me?_ Maybe not. Long comment is long. But them’s my thoughts.

He thinks he's just trying to save the universe, but what he's really doing is just trying to prove that he was right; that culling half of his species' population would have saved them, because his mind cannot handle the idea that he may have just been a madman whose plan was stupid and who couldn't save his people. He has to believe that killing half the population will save the universe from overpopulation, and he's out to prove it. Thanos isn't my favourite MCU villain (that would be Zemo from Civil War), but he was solidly written... in Infinity War at least.

Batman '66 and the Brave and the Bold cartoon play Batman's character with a hilariously campy angle to make fun of him, which is why those are the only adaptations of Batman I actually like.

Deadpool story idea: Wade gets experimented on by those guys to cure his cancer. It doesn't do anything but give him the Kruger face. Wade then escapes and while being chased by the labs mercenaries, he runs into the camera. He then goes of the set for a second and beats some intern up for a copy of the script, then rewrites it so that now he has accelerated healing and then kills the mercenaries and gets his weapons from them. Then he goes on a crusade to get vengeance on the guys who fucked up his face. (The reason why he couldn't just rewrite the script to get his face fixed could be because the actor that played the normal Wade left the crew.)

Good and entertaining analysis. I think the main problem with the Deadpool movie is that Deadpool acts like that guy who thinks he's really funny, but he just recycles old Dad jokes and thinks talking like a zany cartoon character is the pinnacle of hilarity. It's the kind of humor that only 12 year olds would think is clever, and it's a huge irony that it occurs in an allegedly "adult" movie brimming with sex and profanity.

0:40 Objection! One of the first things peter does is chase after the guy that killed uncle ben, so revenge is a plot point, but just not a huge one. 9:20 Hold it! People mounting their own defenses is a huge plot point in most justice league plotlines, which is why you have people like Amanda Waller, who are hellbent on controlling at least some superheroes. The same can be said for SHEILD and its agents, who want superheroes controlled, but also try their best to keep tabs on supervillains and possible threats.

HONESTLY Good Subversion would have been if in the middle of Deadpool , because of his worsening mental state + brain cells being replaced , Deadpool forgot about his girlfriend and simply hunted down the bad guys because he had their photos and names all over his home .

Points I want to make about Deadpool, because I literally have nothing to say about your OPM stuff since its on the point: 1. Deadpool is constantly getting his ass kicked by his past, so having some aspect of "oooh this happened in the past" is pretty much expected, doesn't mean it need to last more than half of the movie's runtime (it doesn't in the comics, though one thing happening far in the past for a few minutes often becomes a plot point). 2. Origin stories do fucking suck and yes it meant only 1/3rd or so of the movie was effectively about Deadpool. It shouldn't be there. 3. Ajax is a big villain in Deadpool comics so if there are more movies he is going to come back. Guaranteed. Though I hope he doesn't appear like that when he is a major villain. 4. One of the quirks of Deadpool is that he talks a lot. He is nicknamed "The merc with a mouth" for that. That it isn't funny or that he talks about things nobody cares about is just bad writing and there's no excuse for that. So there is some subjectivity there, but not everything is on point and it could be. So there's always an argument for you to make about better writing, because it can be better. Anything I didn't mention (such as the romance) are things that I don't ever want to defend even if I was being paid for it. You got on a bit of a rant about... a lot of things that aren't Deadpool or OPM but I'm not going to complain about it because it really just added more than Deadpool and OPM to the video. Besides that... well I could say "But Marvel movies are just window dressing for a bunch of action scenes" but the so obvious fucking counterargument to this is that the Marvel movies wouldn't LOSE anything by having a better established world than right now. So there's no real argument to make there (or at least I'm not stupid enough to make it), why wouldn't you want a better established and believable universe? Well actual Marvel fans (and not just people like me who read the Deadpool comics off the internet one time because it looked cool in a few scenes) are probably going to argue "WELL ITS LIKE THIS IN THE COMICS!" which is an even worse argument. In short Marvel should have made a better universe decades ago, but obviously the writers/executives have other priorities [Insert Black Muslim Female Captain America]. Well its a shame Marvel has shit writing, but Muhvel muvis r onli 4 da ection seenes. Oh and I guess I have to begrudgingly accept that Deadpool is a mishandled subversion movie. AW SHIT LOOK AT THAT ITS TIGER AND BUNNY FUCK YEAH I WAS WAITING FOR THIS.

I pretty much agree w/ all these points (I def used this vid to shamelessly rant about Marvel/superheroes in general, too). Except... will they really bring Ajax back after shooting him in the head like that? When I first watched this movie, having no idea Francis even was Ajax, I was under the impression he had the same regen power that DP has because he was shrugging off a lot of injuries like they were nothing. But turns out he's just immune to most pain (which ain't no superpower; that's a disability). So he's not gonna heal up. I did read he gets brought back to life in a comic, but I doubt the movies will take that specific route since it had something to do with Thanos, who Marvel's using atm. If he does come back somehow, I'll make another video, point specifically to this comment, and admit I was wrong.

E;R You don't need to point it out if I end up being right, but you shouldn't be surprised if he does come back. On the other hand they might as well have killed him off because there's the whole subplot of Deadpool and Death (yes the actual death) being in love with each other being too weird for movie audiences. Even though Thanos is part of that plot as well. its very hard to make a committed statement to either side after they killed important people off before with Mandarin. Either way my first disappointment of the movie was that it didn't have T-Ray in it.

Except there are lot of instances of world building both in the comics and other mediums. The big difference is that there are multiple writers for comics so some elements of the world would be ignored or changed, and the fact that more often than not the world exist to serve the characters.

If you want a version of Batman that's played off as insane(which he definitly is), Tim Burton delivers, at least at first. Enjoyed the video series, and seeing you talk about something you liked for at least part of the time.

I just had one comment I wanted to make: Happy isn’t a SHIELD agent, he’s a security guard for Tony Stark who’s clearly not the best at his job but Tony keeps him around because they’re good friends. Which is why he can barely fight one guard while Black Widow takes out like 10
