Coming after Oney.

Yeah, this oughta be fun.

A mark of a true comic fan is filling in the blanks with Wikipedia...and still getting shit wrong.

You're barely a grown adult, shut up.

I love the Sistine Chapel stuff, it's the best he's come up with in a long time. I'm just surprised he hasn't suggested that the chapel should be whitewashed and funnybook panels drawn up there so those stupid Christians can get some real culture.

What would he say next? James Gunn’s firing is the most damaging since AIDS?

 

[Jetpack Himmler]

Maybe it's the old standby. Rock solid, hardcore :autism: :autism: :autism: that leads to him genuinely seeing capeshit as the greatest cultural treasure since Super Mario.

Bob is the kind of dolt who takes an idea that's widely accepted, "superheroes as modern mythology" and twists like a pretzel into something asinine like, "Avengers: Infinity War is the The Last Judgment of our times!" His attempts to elevate the MCU to high art are the fevered delusions of a pleb who believes that he is a patrician. Shakespeare's plays were meant appeal to the masses in his time and did not become high culture until around the eighteen and nineteenth centuries. Will capeshit become high art? Maybe in a couple hundred years, but I highly doubt it. Saying that Marvel (or DC) is high art is like telling me that a Ford Model T is a Ferrari 812.

Also, if Bob is comparing Marvel to Jesus. I'm sorry but DC has a better claim to that as Jerry Seigel and Joe Shuster took inspiration from the Moses and Samson myths to create Superman. Additionally, those elements translated into messianic figure in the Christian sense where Kal-El's "heavenly" father Jor-El sends his son to Earth to guide the human race to enlightenment.

Live as one of them, Kal-El, to discover where your strength and your power are needed. But always hold in your heart the pride of your special heritage. They can be a great people, Kal-El, they wish to be. They only lack the light to show the way. For this reason above all, their capacity for good, I have sent them you... my only son.

TL;DR, remove Kevin Feige's dick from your mouth and take a comparative mythology class, you rube!

 

[Woke Blue Muttlema]

I will pay real money to know if he really thinks he is blowing the mind of someone. Like, who is this cunt to talk about the modern state of comics, being that he doesn't give a shit cuz reading is for nazis?

 

[Zaryiu]

Shit like this is why people make fun of your Marvel boner, Bob.

While some of what he is saying is true (Michaelangelo was hesitant to work on the project, etc.) Comparing Jesus Christ to fucking Marvel? Do I even need to explain the reasons why thats wrong? Also, Both of those scenes were specifically chosen scenes from religious scripture, it wasn't just some random mashup of "everybody's favorite Bible figures". Yes, paintings used to be commissions mostly, congratulations, you've found out something everybody knows. Stop trying to act like your precious mahvel is on the same level, because it shows just how fucking stupid you actually are.

>Robert Chipman actually compared Marvel to Jesus
...He's gone way too far this time in his Marvel dicksucking

 

[Chan the Wizard]

I like Marvel movies. They’re decent popcorn flicks. But a hundred years from now, no one is going to be discussing them as art.

I swear if he does i would lose my shit and/or my mind in front of such radioactive retar.dation

I recall Man of Steel getting criticized for how on the nose the Christian symbolism was with Superman. I'm sure when he jumped on the bandwagon, Bob gave out about that.

 

[Kamatsubu]

I want to see Moviebob's Mario movie where Mario get's the same Jesus symbolism Zach Snyder gives Superman in his movies.

I wish we could see it as well in Universal's upcoming movie, but the Minions people are making it, so I doubt we'll get that. However, since they also made that Lorax movie back in 2012 Bob really despised, I could also see them turning Mario into the exact opposite of what he means to Bob.

Also, going off topic, is Bob aware that his beloved Disney made the Mario movie back in 1993 and the reason he defends it is because the two things he liked are made into a movie?

Mario with firearms and his superior future?

We already have his Mario pitch

http://moviebob.blogspot.com/2014/12/a-shameless-exercise-in-what-i.html

"LORD OF THE RINGS meets 21 JUMP STREET by way of GHOSTBUSTERS. Epic fantasy-adventure but instead of solemn British elves or precocious children it's two wisecracking blue-collar schmoes from Brooklyn; so it's relateable and "now." Major sequel/spin-off potential with a near-limitless merchandising upside plus massive youth, crossover and nostalgia appeal, based on a proven brand that's already more established and widely-recognized worldwide (particularly in Asian markets) than most of the Marvel/Avengers characters were prior to their movies.

 

[Flexo]

This is what I get for missing @Sexy Times Hitler 's edits. Kali's tits, how can he say this with a straight face?

Maybe he's not. Maybe he's winking at the audience, trying to get a rise out of people? yes, but this argument is so astoundingly ignorant it's almost self-refuting.

Maybe he is that ignorant. The Pope wasn't just some rich dude in a funny hat; for centuries he was the most powerful figure west of Arabia -- this was as much about cultural unification and demonstrating the wealth and splendor of Christendom as it was about "puttin' all your favorite characters in one place!" Bob, being a smug, poorly-read atheist, is incapable of even imagining that there was a time and place where faith was crucial to nearly everyone. He also seems to be forgetting the vastly lower literacy rates of the time -- the Bible and religious folktales made up the one unifying element that the vast majority of the people would all be familiar with.

Maybe it's the old standby. Rock solid, hardcore :autism: :autism: :autism: that leads to him genuinely seeing capeshit as the greatest cultural treasure since Super Mario.

Champion work, Escapist. You've got a bona fide genius on your hands.

No no... i think he may be onto something here.

. . .

To the condemnation of the modern era. Capeshit is representative of our sistine chapel - vapid noise signifying nothing.

Sometimes we just have to remember that Bob is right.

In a way he never intended.

What would Bob know about blue collar workers, Brooklyn, Mario, and film? Absolutely jack shit, and that premise is dumb as fuck.

Is that like when he compared modern times to the Weimar Republic without understanding the implications? He ran with it as "Weimar Republic was progressive and great until the Nazis came!" but in reality......

Well I can apply that the Democratic Party used to be a powerful party that help the working class until the SJWs and Hollywood came in.

 

[LaughingJoke]

If Bob wants to start a religion to Marvel fine but that kind of makes him Peter so I guess we need to crucify him right?

I think I never fully realized his true level of incompetence. Selling your idea in a TvTropes format is no way to go.

This reminds me of the video NitPix made on Justice League. Probably the only moment I thought he reached levels of tism similar to other YT "critics" but nowhere near as Bob.

I stopped at LORD OF THE RINGS meets 21 JUMP STREET by way of GHOSTBUSTERS.

Doug Walker could make a better Mario movie than that
