Marvel Cinematic Universe

Bringing this back to Fantastic Four and the general dislike for Pedro Pascal, I suddenly recalled one more reason I dislike him. He was publicly condemning Kyle Rittenhouse and called the child molester Joseph Rosenbaum a hero.

"Heroes in your industry"? Do they actually know what Pascal does?

This shows how great of an actor he is as the Mandalorian, playing someone who actually cares about children getting hurt.
Reed in the comics is heavily anti USSR.

Reed in the movies by the mouse lol.

Im shocked over the amount of pozzed left wing shitlibs into the FF4.

They are probably the most normal heterosexual traditional lot compared to other hero groups in the Marvel Universe.

The current Canadian Marxist writing series moved them to rural AZ and concentrated heavily on the family aspect with little to no mentions of homosexual pride flags.
The thing about the Fantastic Four is that they've always been marketed as Marvel's first family. Nowadays, people like stories about found family and generational trauma, so it's hard to make the Fantastic Four appealing to Gen Z and Gen Alpha.
 
My issue is that Pedro is clearly a faggot and I'm not saying gays can't do action roles but if they do they do then the need to actually act like they're not sissyboys into getting railed.

Pedro doesn't do that, he's extremely overly emotional and always looks like he's about to cry. Not even remotely convincing as a tough guy.
 
And just like that gatekeeping is no longer frowned upon.

If leftists had no double standards, they'd have no standards at all.
How much is Disney paying to promote this dogshit show?
They say:

"The children are the future"

What their lobbying says:

"Fuck'em brats, kill them before they can be even born"

Judge people on what they do, not say.
You picked three heroes that I feel simply illustrate my point. Hulk leaps into a nest in New York City (pop. 20m). Lets say he smashes the nest. A couple of hundred xenomorphs go fleeing in every which direction. He chases some down but the vast majority through stealth, speed and just Hulk not being able to run in 70 different directions at once, gets away. Every one of which will either re-congregate with its fellows that it can find or begin an ovomorphing process by itself once again. Where you had one nest, now you have six. And it really depends on the version of Hulk. An earlier version who will actually be hurt by acid that can burn through steel, or some arbitrary unstoppable planet-breaking immortal. Either way though, he's not suited to destroying xenomorphs in the runaway breeding scenario. A hundred soldiers with high-powered rifles and night vision are more effective than one hulk. Nor, honestly, does adding him to the the hundred soldiers really help that much. An anti-tank missile can kill the queen as well as the Hulk can. Wolverine? Good as a tracker. An asset. Game changer? Not once we're in the runaway breeding scenario. Also, hilarious if he got impregnated - xenomorphs don't lay eggs exactly, they incorporate the DNA of their host - hence the quadrupedal xenomorph in Alien 3 and other animal variants in expanded media. Now you have a regenerating, mutant xenomorph! Deadpool? You're still not getting it. It's not whether or not he can survive a xenomorph attack, it's whether his damage output can exceed their reproductive rate. It can't. He's also worse than a squad of soldiers for this purpose.

I did mention it was a contained city, meaning no run aways and if there are any, there would be soldiers ready to gun them down. They could also freeze people with embryos inside of them until they figure out a way to safely remove them (even if you do bring up the "cancer" thing Aliens Colonial Marines introduced, its only "maybe canon" at best and even if it is, Im sure a solution will be found too).

Would Cerebro work on the Xenos? I dont mean to try to control them but to simply locate, track them and know how many are still on Earth. That alone would reduce the threat greatly as Xenos thrive on the element of surprise, once thats gone, they can be surprisingly easy to take out with the right weaponry.

My point is that both DC and Marvel have characters capable of organizing a proper operation towards containment and extermination of xenos, possibly even figure out a way to save those impregnated.

Xenos taking over COULD work with the proper explanation but the crossover just shrugs with a "they just did". They didnt even establish that maybe this suppose to be when the heroes were just starting, meaning we are dealing with versions more akin to their very original selves before some of their ludicrous feats came in.
Literally doing the 'say the line' 'noo, I'm not gonna say it' and 'it's from the cartoon!'. wtf, meta humor in this? Think doesn't look even pirate watch level.

Thats literally a Shrek Ever After joke (a pretty mid one at that)

- Sue Storm needs to be attractive and she just isn't.

We live in a post-attractive era, dont you know, chud?
Everyone feels kind of humourless. When Johnny salutes those women he looks miserable as Hell.

They already spelled it out that Johnny will "respect women", aka, no more ladies man here
The latest ultimate Spider-Man.

The ending saved it, for one second I thought we would have a ludicrous "Dont move, you are surrounded, Godzilla!" moment there.

I wonder if her nature also told her to betray the scariest guy she can think of.
"Pascal's slow trajectory to becoming a household name..."

Like chlamydia. It's everywhere, really difficult to get rid of and at best an irritation, at worst insufferable.

A very artificial trajectory, of course.

Hell, the joke actually factored into the plot by showing how people don't fear Shrek anymore, with his roar being reduced to entertaining children at parties. Why does Ben not like the idea of saying his catchphrase?

"Hey, strong independent female. What do you say we go on a date that may or lead to consentual sex at some point?"
 
Today I learned that Spike Jonze isn't Black.

I had always thought that the director of Boyz N The Hood was Black.
Fun fact: Spike Jonze had a small role in a different gang movie called "Mi Vida Loca" and despite the movie being about and focusing on cholos, it was written and directed by a white woman.

Jason Lee also has a small role in it as well.
 
I did mention it was a contained city, meaning no run aways and if there are any, there would be soldiers ready to gun them down.
But why would it be a contained city? And that's my very point - if soldiers are ready to gun down any that run away, then Hulk is no better than a cruise missile. It's not that heroes can't fight xenomorphs. It's that in scenarios where they are able to stop the xenomorphs, they are unneeded because humans can also stop the xenomorphs. The exceptions are the ones that can do weird and wildly OP stuff like alter reality.

Xenomorphs are not a threat to organised and armed human beings. Unless it reaches a critical scenario in which they're out-breeding their losses. At which point most heroes don't make any difference over soldiers, either.

This is the fundamental problem with trying to put xenos in DC or Marvel. They're not actually that dangerous outside of incompetence on humanity's part. Which was a theme of the films.



Just sharing this because her facial expressions when it comes to how gross Pedro is makes me LOL.
Never heard of her before but she's bang on with all this. And "female Frodo Baggins" makes me laugh - she absolutely does look like a female Frodo Baggins. Will check out her stuff. Seems like she might be a lighter Critical Drinker.

She is an old school comic book fan (rather than a film critic) in the sense that she actually knows and likes the history of it. She's quite the xmen (esp Gambit and Rogue) fan and also has some strong views on the degradation of Harley Quinn over the years. Having that self deprecation you reference without overdoing it also helps.

There are some similarities with the Background NPC from the gaming side of things in that she knows her subject matter and, as far as I have seen, has comments worth hearing and comes across as genuine. It's good to see channels like these on the up.

Blame Game of Thrones. His role as the Viper was amazing, but people also forget he played him overly emotional. That was a very specific type of character. Pascal did right because he can pull that "somehow manly guy who occasionally cries too" vibe.

In the books, while the Viper is impulsive, he's more casual. In the show, the scene when she tells Tyrion about their first encounter, they play it to make us feel bad for Tyrion. All about the scene is how much he's been hated since he was a baby, which leads to him being finally killed. This happens in the book during their first encounter, and Oberyn is more casual about it: "lol, remember when your sister was a total cunt since she was a kid and your brother wasn't?" It was a total different approach to play, and while it wasn't Pascal's fault, it's what has set him up as a very specific type of character.

I'm glad I avoided GoT entirely. I saved myself from eternal blue balls and the horde of overrated "prestige" actors it spawned.
