Careercow Robert Chipman / Bob / Moviebob / "Movieblob" - Middle-Aged Consoomer, CWC with a Thesaurus, Ardent Male Feminist and Superior Futurist, the Twice-Fired, the Mario-Worshipper, publicly dismantled by Hot Dog Girl, now a diabetic

[Caustic Gelatin]

HA! I so fucking called it that he was gonna be pissed off PPG getting reshoots/refilming. Also, hyped? Fat ass you're the only one who was hyped for this trash, and mostly because you hope they introduce Dexter as a sexy nerd, so your worthless ass can project onto him,

To be honest Bob is the only person I have seen yet that was "hyped" for the PPG live action shit show. From what I can tell even super lefty tumblr types didn't even want this pile of shit

Who in the goddamn shit is Naomi?

Also, I shudder to think how bad the Powerpuff Girls pilot must be if even the infamously shitty CW thinks it's too shitty to air.

There are supposed leaks of the script floating around that are both retarded and funny as hell. Granted that could/probably is a elaborate troll so definitely take it with a grain of salt. Assuming it isn't it reads like a youtube tier sketch mocking corporate woke reboots of something but completely unironic. Or like something just fed into a computer and written by algorithm or maybe by someone that really hates the original show.
To be honest I would kill to have a copy or at least see it. If so bad that the fucking CW refuses to air it it must be a special kind of awful.

I also want to add a "Who the fuck is Naomi?".
Wait I mean HOLY SHITBALLS GUYS, CW's got The flash, green arrow, supergirl and now Naomi! Why aren't you more excited? IT'S NAOMI! She's a bad black bitch with an attitude!
NAOMI!

I'm not that familiar with the Eternals, but wasn't Thanos the son of two of them?

Yeah. He's the deformed older brother of some guy named Starfox.

That's not his hero name. That's the name his parents from the moon Titan, and by Titan I mean Saturn's moon, gave him. So not only is that a silly name but it's a very well known and trademarked name. I don't believe there's gonna be any tie ins with Thanos because that would make things awkward at best and I don't see Starfox nor his parents listed in the cast for The Eternals, at least according to IMDB.

His actual name is Eros, Starfox is an alias.

Saw the trailer and it seems to be a bastardization of what the Eternals are. Life still evolved normally but pre-humans were genetically modified by the Celestials around the time of Homo Erectus which left the seed for different kinds of super people. Eternals just happened to be one group of god-men who kept to themselves until having a civil war with a group of them fucking off to Titan, Saturn's moon, and the rest being confused for Greek gods whenever they did something (Greek Gods were real too though). Biggest thing they do is fight off the Deviants who are the unstable creations and the source of some monster stories from when they dominated mankind.

The MCU's versions are coming off as more smug puppet masters who are behind every development on Earth which is both off and only going to distance the audience from these characters even more. I'm not looking forward to seeing how this whole thing goes over. Though like others have said, a lot of the creators of Kirby after he returned to Marvel aren't very good but still shouldn't be morphed into this.

Spoiler: Some more lore sperging if you're curious

If you're going to ask why the Celestials did the experiments that created these groups like the Eternals, read the 2016 Ultimates because it's actually a good book. Basically the Celestials are the creation of a lonely god who they betrayed and took away his power. The entire multiverse is actually a science experiment to see what conditions will cause life to transcend to the level they are and if it doesn't happen, they just wipe the slate clean and start over with a new tweak. We're on the 8th, formerly 7th, cycle of creation which is allegedly the one that will succeed. This is also probably why the multiverse is home to countless variants of the same people.

Different cycles had different themes than the current "super genetics" one like the previous focusing even harder on the sci-fi (the mortal who became Galactus is from here) and the one before that was full of eldritch magic.

The movie is using the widely reviled retcon of Earth X, a piss poor Kingdom Come rip off mini-series Marvel commissioned written by Jim Kreuger and Alex Ross (but mainly Krueger, who wrote the plot based on notes/character designs and generic "what if Kingdom Come happened in the Marvel Universe?" style notes/character bios).

Earth X retconned the Celestials from being above good and evil evolutionary stewards into genocidal space robot/gods that explicitly plant baby celestials into planetary cores and then "seed life" IE the eternals, deviants, and mutants to "protect" the planets until the celestial is fully born and destroys the planet and kills everyone on the planet when it happens.

(Oh and the Watchers are a literal slave race, as the Celestials made them serve as wardens/protectors of the planets serving as incubators for celestials due to the fact that the Watchers failed to kill Galactus when he was being birthed, as far as retconning Galactus as a literal universal coat hanger who destroys worlds in order to feed on the world killing unborn celestials. And that the Watcher Uatah in particular, only intervenes to protect earth like he does, because he's been enslaved and tasked with protecting Earth until the baby celestial inside of it wakes and kills the planet. )

Earth X also was the place where Marvel came up with the idea of the Inhumans going super evil and spraying the planet with terrigan mists due to their desire to become the master race of the planet. And Jonathan Hickman and other writers got the idea of turning Black Bolt into a full on fascist type God King who does all sorts of evil shit in the name of "preserving and advancing" the Inhuman race.

I would just like to say that I very much appreciate your informative posts on all things capeshit, they provide a lot of context to the goings-on of Hollywood's adaptations/bastardizations.

I would also like to say that I am very thankful I never got into capeshit seriously, because holy shit it sounds so retarded.

 

[Bolo]

I should also note that the only real fucking reason to make an Eternals films is two-fold:

1. To introduce the Celestials, who Thor had a major multi-arc story fighting at the start of the DeFalco Thor run and who can be used to handwave why mutants exist once the X-Men come along

2. To introduce Sersei and Black Knight, who are at the center of the whole "Gatherers Saga" which involves Black Knight's evil double gathering an alternate universe army of Avengers who's world is destroyed by Sersei (via evil Black Knight's manipulation) and the fact that the Gatherers also had an alt universe version of Black Panther, which if they did correctly, would allow them to recast BP with Killmonger's actor if they need a plot excuse to do so.

Introducing the celestials to introduce the X-gene might be a good idea, but gonna be a hard sell to explain why mutants were never even mentioned over the spam of 10 years of MCU. Or do you think they will do to the X-gene what they did to the inhuman terrigen mistm get the Eternals to fight the celestials and somehow they let loose the "X-gene", so we can explain away why people around the glove are getting super powers.

Even so, I tink it will be a hard sell to make the celestial the new big bad guys for these new phase of movies. I know I said that the MCU doesn't need the comics for shit... but at the same time they still use a LOT of normie recognizable names and images to apeal.

Yeah, you average joe probably never heard of "Thanos", but at one point or another, he might have seen this image around:

And there is no such a thing for the celestials. So the most basic bitch prediction is Galactus, pretty much everybody knows Galactus and Silver Surfer, and they can tie Galactus being a celestial, even if in the context of the comics it makes so sense whatsoever) if they oh so need the Eternals to come back (urgh that just made my skin crawl).

That or Beyonder, which is a shot in the dark, but more recognizable than the celestials, and he comes with a cheap plot device to bring all these character together for big blockbuster.

My dream is that somehow they manage to bring it to an end and make Earth X, which is rad, and if they manage to make into this scene, I would start watching those marvel movies again:

Earth X is awesome, just read it.

It was total nonsense. DC heavily promoted that "Bendis is Coming" back in 2018, but the ugly truth is that Bendis is a washed-up hack who does not bring a huge audience as he didn't create an appreciable sales increase. You can also tell that he creates "original" characters like Rogol Zaar and Red Cloud because he's hungry for royalties.

@MirrorNoir would likely know more, but wasn't Bendis one of the writers who pioneered "writing for the trade" style that basically ruined pacing for comics? I doubt Bob would know about anything Naomi because comic books are well being his reading comprehension. Hell, it would surprise me if Bob read the instruction booklets for his NES games.

I dunno if Bendis was the one who started the trend of "writing for the trade"... but sure as fuck he adopted it hard core.

But he is hardly the only one, and now it is the biggest defence over a failing title over sales "well, it will make money once the trade comes out", and if that is really true (it isn't but whatever), and if no one wants to write floppies stories with a beginning middle and end, then why the fuck even do floppies to begin with.

At this point, why not just adopt the manga system, have a weekly big anthology with short chapters printed on the cheap, have people read it and get found of particular stories and characters, then sell the Tankōbon, I mean trade, when it reaches enough chapter, or the storyline is concluded.

it ain't like killing floppies is gona kill comic stores, they make money with magic cards manga, not floppies.

What does Marvel even have going anymore? This "Phase 4" shit just seems like a) a dumping ground for random properties to see if they stick and b) an attempt to force as much Woke crap as possible down the throats of people like Bob. They don't have a plan to work up to another big end point. It's as clear as day. This crap that Bob salivates over is the very problem that is going to kill the MCU soon enough. But he'll dutifully follow it along as it refuses to adapt or change and eventually dries up the only cow on the dairy farm.

Phase 4 was always going to be a rebuild phase, in part because of the loss of RDJ and CE, but also Marvel being torn between doing Secret Invasion and Dark Avengers and rebuilding the Avengers around Brie Larson and launching Samanat Aman's Mary Sue character Kamala Khan.

The Fox acquisition threw everything into chaos, as did Disney+, since now they have the X-Men and Fantastic Four to replace the Avengers, meaning they don't have to put up with Brie's toxic ass and scramble to create a C-List Avengers team or try and create viable versions of Bendis's bullshit storylines. It also meant that they had to make explicitly canon TV shows for Disney+ that furthered the storylines for the movies as bait to get people to subscribe to Disney+, as opposed to how the ABC and Netflix shows were given relative free reign to be their own thing while the movie folk could ignore them willy nilly.

As it stands, the implicit endgoal for Phase 4 seems to be "Young Avengers", with the added implicit notion of pulling a Len Wein/Chris Claremont and making the Young Avengers THE official Avengers, as far as a changing of the guard for the MCU. Which would also solve another issue that is making life difficult for Marvel and their Disney overlords, as Disney wants Young Avengers creator Allen Heinberg back in the fold making TV shows for them while Brevoort and his ilk at Marvel explicitly told Heinberg to fuck off and die as far as taking Bendis's side against Heinberg and then giving Young Avengers to Keiron Gillen to rape them as badly as he did.

Yeah, but will they? Sure, they have major threats from those lines that are big enough they can do team ups to beat (oh hai Dr. Doom and Apocalypse), but I don't see them dropping Captain RBF and KaMary-Sue Khan simply because muh representation. If anything, they'll botch the change over and any X-Men movies or Fantastic 4 movies will suck.

 

[MirrorNoir]

Is Galactus even interesting enough as a character to be the next overarching big bad?

He's not even really evil, right? Isn't he just basically a force of nature who has to do what he does just because?

Galactus's big thing is that he's a god-damn force of nature; the ultimate threat, in that he comes to planets, EATS THEM, and then moves onto other planets to eat, on and on and on again until EVERYTHING is dead and then Galactus blows up and starts the next big bang.

Galactus isn't evil so much as he just doesn't give a shit. On a good day he's apathetic to the carnage he is causing and on a bad day? He does the planet eating version of eating the icing off a cake and leaving the bread untouched by killing and feeding on the life force of every living sole on the planet.

On only the rarest of occasions has Galactus spared a world, by forcing one of the residents to become his herald and forcing them to condemn other worlds to extermination at Galactus's hands. And even then, he'll mindrape these heralds unless they are full blown sociopaths who are only in it for the cosmic power that Galactus gives his heralds so they can serve him.

In that regard, Galactus isn't so much a long term villain unless you treat him like Unicron (or borrow heavily from the INO abortion that was Ultimate Galactus written by sexual predator Warren Ellis) and make a big deal about Galactus coming and play up the idea that Earth's kind of fucked due to the Avengers being gone and use it to either introduce the Fantastic Four proper or retrofit the X-Men being the ones who fight Galactus. Though with the former, you can at least crib Heroes Reborn Fantastic Four, which had the coming of Galactus as a running subplot in the run.

What? That sounds like total nonsense.

It was and killed sales so fucking bad that DC had to pull the plug on both Superman books shipping twice a month AND fire Bendis from the book (and kill his abortion of a Legion reboot). Made even worse by the fact that Superman was seeing a renaisance under Jurgan and Tomasi with Superman being a dad and fans were eagerly expecting/waiting for Geoff Johns to bring back the Legion after a rather substantial hiatus the characters were put on when DiDio killed their book early on in the New 52.

He wasn't the first to do it, but he was the one who made it popular. If you read him in his prime, it's easy to think an arc was 3 or 4 issues long when really they were 7. He had some interesting ideas, but he was terrible at planning out and was terrible at following even his own continuity. The editors would always insist it made the stories better so they didn't have to admit they didn't want to do their jobs.

We know more about Marvel than Bob does.

I would just like to echo what tragedy it was for Bendis to take over Superman. I'm not a fan of the big blue, but Tomasi's Superman was the best capeshit comics of the last 10 years or so, I'm not exagerating, and even stuff that I don't like, as introducing the "hero's child" character, worked for that title, everything clicked and it was such a great time to just see the kent family, how they act with each other, classic villains make a great come back, even Manchester Black!

And the break out character was Superman's Kid Jonathan. people raving about Invincibles' character now? Jonathan is a much better "kid learning his powers" character, and fuck, he even made me like Damian Wayne, that is a hall of fame feat for me.

Maybe Tomasi's Superman wasn't a best seller, but he was building towards a increnible story, and the reader ship was gathering, not to mention the good will of the books was translating in support for other spin-offs, like Super sons.

But then Bendis came, probably gave the DC people some bullshit like "I made the MCU guys, just let me make the new characters for the movies) and just destroyed EVERYTHING people liked about Tomasi's Superman.

And no joke, Superman 2016 was the only floopie I was reading and went for the back issues.

And then bendis came along, and 6 or 7 issues in, he gets rid of Jonathan and later on Superman tells everybody he is Clark Klent because of "hypocrisy" of being a journalist and keeping a secret (yeah really)

Fuck everything.

Oh no, Marvel ain't the just a consoom thing for Robert, it is last grasp of anything that resembles relevancy, that is the real reason on why he workships this shit to a fervor.

Robert's patreon is trickling down, slow, but sure.

He is losing folowers on twitter, and the only people who actually pay attention are just some troons and weirdos and us.

His you tube channel is dead and now he struggles to break over 20K videos... except for, and you guessed it, Capeshit, more so trendy Marvel capeshit, and even so, he hasn't a video hit over 50k in 5 months or so, and while Robert never had much interms of subscribers, he does have videos on his channel that have millions of views, and with the Escapist he did have a larger reach to a lot of people, so much of what he had pretty much vanished and the little that has beens kept only reaches for Robert when he has something to say about capeshit.

And then there is the Matpat thing. Recently, every now and then Robert likes to brag how he worked on a video with millions of views, referring to the Matpat videos he "writes" for, as in Matpat couldn't give less of two fucks about Marvel capeshit, but he needs to ride the trendy algorithm to feed his audience of autistic kids that garbage and so he got a autistic manchild to do the wikipedia work for him., the man child in case being Robert.

The curious thing is, considering Robert braggy nature, he is quite restrained when it comes to talk big about writing for Matpat, who still is quite a big youtuber. Either someone told him, or Robert is consious enough to know that if he tries to relate himself too much to Matpat's work and his bullshit on twitter, he is gona lose this gig that works as a balm for his ego... because I can't see it paying to well too wikipedia about Fin Fang Foom.

So Robert NEEDS this Marvel shit to go on, he has nothing else, he is too old to "get" anything pop culture trendy, nor he does anything else besides these movies, he doesn't play games, he doesn't read comic, or books, or anything else, what is Robert gonna have after marvel shit? gonna talk about V-tubers?

If you ask me, if capeshit goes down it'll be one fat sped screaming into the void while we continue to sperg about comic books and religion in his thread more than talking about the sped himself, with the exception of Positron still posting his zero engagement tweets for us to use as sperg fuel.
