    I'm waiting for them to turn Black Panther into a White guy, and Luke Cage into a Jew that yells "Sweet Hanukah!". Seriously, WTF?

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    Interesting that you bring up Dark World. Thor and Malekith and flying through buildings and smashing around stuff like DBZ, the same as Superman v Zod in Man of Steel.

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    Thor is magic based, so you don't have a real strong argument, as Superman has no more defense against magic than regular humans. In the Marvel vs DC crossover, Superman barely beat Thor, and they gave Superman the win, as Thor did not use his storm or lightning (which are pure magic attacks)...

    On the flip side is that they make minority characters way more powerful than everyone else, to make people interested in them. Like Gravity, for instance, who they made to be a gay character that eventually has enough power to sustain Galactus all by himself.

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    Don't forget, at any given time, Thor can put on his belt of strength (which doubles his strength) and can summon the entire lifeforce of the Asgardians (including Odin). Odin has gone toe to toe with Galactus, and Thor can add Odin's power to his. Plus at any given time, he can summon all of...

    Actually, here it is (http://www.comicbookmovie.com/comics...ts-thor-a47839). Read through these and tell me Thor isn't as OP as Superman. These are just some of them: Strength: 1. Thor arm-wrestles Hercules to a draw, causing the area to collapse and shifting the planet out of orbit...

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    Actually, there's website out there cataloging Thor's feats that says he's just as OP as Superman, and gives the comic pages to prove it. Other than flying through time (but Thor can teleport into other dimensions), Thor and Superman have the same power level. Superman moves planets = Thor...

    I'm Black, and I don't agree with turning these characters into minorities. Marvel and DC were racist for so long, they flat out did their best to limit minority superheroes. I remember reading the Editor's Box for X-Men 30 years ago, where they tried to say that Storm wasn't Black, because...

    Anyone else notice that Marvel is staying away from the edgier stories?
  11. Shonuff

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    Marvel is cornier, but they pull it off with quality stories. The other thing going for Marvel is that it's characters have actual character flaws. Ant Man is a wife beater. Thor is egotistical and has to be tied to a crippled mortal's body as punishment. Iron Man is vulnerable to whiskey...

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    You are partially right, in that Superman and Batman are polar opposites. Superman looks stupid being grimdarked, just as much as if they would try to make Batman fit in Christopher Reeves' world. Or you get Bat Nipples. Remember in TDK, when Batman goes out as Bruce Wayne to save that...

    Superman Return box office: $391 million, cost of 204 m Batman Begins: 374 m, cost of 150m Hmmm, I thought BB did better. But I'm pretty sure that after Dark Knight did $1B, they decided to go a different route with all of their characters and grimdark them. There was no way WB was going...

    The Ultimate version was about as good as Man of Steel. Take that for what it's worth.

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    They could have split the movie in half, before having them fight Doomsday. And they could have spent more time on Wonder Woman's origin, and also explain why Batman is straight up murdering everyone. I also forgot to add, there was more time with Clark Kent in the Ultimate version. He...

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    I said that a decade ago on FOH. There was a leaked memo that said that since Batman has their #1 box office overall, and Superman wasn't doing as well, and that from now on, all characters would be grimdarked. I think that was when Superman Returns didn't do so well, but the Nolan movies were...

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    Go watch the theatrical cut, and you'll see how bad it was. Civil War had an almost perfect rating on RT. It's not the source material that is the issue. The Director's cut was better. Probably all you guys that hated the original like I did should do yourself a favor and watch this version...

    The Ultimate version didn't suck so much. We just watched it. It was more fleshed out: - More backstory with Jimmy Olson - More explanation of Kryptonite - More of Lex's manipulations - More explanation of why Martha was important to them - An expanded ending with Lex and Batman...

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    One reviewer said that the MCU uses a brighter color palette, but has darker themes, than the DCU. I agree. In this movie, Batman and Superman were hitting on each other like a bunch of five year olds on the playground. Although, the Ultimate Edition does better in explaining their motives...

    In my industry, I can tell who is skilled and who isn't in five minutes. Guys lie all the time about skill level, which is why we give a tryout day before hiring.

    Adventures with Corndog: Corndog's Fish Store

    I've had other businesspeople tell me it's too expensive. But each man produces $750 a day in revenue. We had about 45 days where I couldn't find anyone reliable and drug free, so you do the math on how much the company lost. Hell, i had one guy quit because they wouldn't let him go to the...

    I have no problem putting out a $1,000 bounty to my employees on certain positions, the caveat being that whoever they recommend has to stay six months. When I didn't say the six month clause, the guys would recommend people they know had issues (i.e., stealing). I now tell them that there's...

    Is Netflix Considering A Revival Of 'Young Justice?'

    I'm not doing any of that crap. They receive money from commercials, where is that going? This is just another WB/DC fuck up. They messed up the last Batman cartoon, YJ and BvS. How do you mess up a Batman cartoon, so that it's cancelled, or a movie starring two of the biggest superheroes...

    The reviewers said it filled some of the plotholes, but was still gloomy and didn't give Wonder Woman any more background or speaking lines. I guess I'll see. I don't have time to sit three hours right now.

    For a point of reference, McDonald's is paying $9 here. I actually did get that guy with one year experience as skilled, because he was sick of working places where they didn't have the hours we did. He was getting $15 an hour, but only 10-20 hours a week. We are on unlimited hours from now...

    The job market is legitimately tight. I had to put up job postings on Craigslist and the local newspaper, and it took me three months to fill a non-skilled gopher type position, and this was at $12 an hour. We've had plenty of applicants, but they had issues I didn't want to deal with (drugs...

    They wanted $140 a month for three 45 minute sessions a week. Open mat was Friday's only. When I trained in a studio, it was 85 a month, and unlimited classes and time. There were weeks when I was in there 20+ hours a week. They made it clear, you can't do that in this studio. I guess we'll...
