Has Scorsese ever talked about comics? He seems ignorant of that topic.

I dunno why but Brenden Fraser's face makes me laugh extremely hard. Like I look up on Google and the dude's face has me cracking up harder than most comedians.

I’m a bit of hater of Disney films but if there’s one thing classic Disney landed with me on was making their song pieces fun visual spectacles. Always felt satisfying to really engage with that in a way I don’t anything else these movies do.

It’s kinda funny people will boast about being more capable than a hired writer in terms of storytelling decisions but it’s always obvious to me they’d be far more inept if they actually got the same role.

Creggar Resident Evil is kind of interesting to me in that it's intentionally not being like Resident Evil while also not being conventional to what Creggar makes either. It's a lot more setpiece oriented in a way that's like a video game without any mystery in Creggar's style.

Kind of a shame this guy got tainted by being in Other M so they never put him in anything else. I don’t think anyone would complain.

IX was god awful but I did at least find it funny. The way the “you’re Palpatine’s daughter” scene was so comically directed that it was hard for me to not laugh. A lot of scenes are so cheeseball it’s unsurprising they got turned into memes, like “somehow, Palpatine returned”

Kinda funny you posted this because I was just about to start investing in sense and sensibility. I haven’t read Jane Austen before.

making in what they produce in a way that doesn't exist with generative AI? What makes AI worse than human art if we're to assume that death of the author is a valid approach? Because if you reduce art to face value interpretation and capturing a style then your take is shallow.

what ai is isn't artistically repugnant on its face. It shows just how much death of the author doesn't work as a critical analysis method because without it how can we honestly say that ai is worse artistically than human art if we're to ignore the artists intentional decision

One thing I don't think people don't talk about is how ai has shined a new perspective on death of the author. If you advocate for death of the author, how can you earnestly be opposed to ai in the artistic perspective? If we're to suggest that the artist doesn't matter, then

You'd be surprised how dismissive certain people can be about old stuff in other mediums. Just look at the people dismissive of silent era film or 00's era alt-rock music. Books may be the only exception but even that can stereotype of being pretentiousness if you identify with classic literature.

Alan Moore was right - cape fans can be total crybabies. And I'd add they're also narratively illiterate at times too.

I feel the issue with the concept of "justice" is that people are unsatisfied with the results of someone being held accountable but don't really have a coherent foundation for what punishment would be valid. People are incredibly draconian but not in way that's coherent.

its arcs being longer than the usual superhero fare is what sets these people off, also the fact that they're very lore brained and think more about continuity and world building than the narrative. Granted, I think *most* people like the story but the critics are... baffling to me sometimes.

In fairness I do think the comic is structured a lot like a superhero book which is separated by arcs and one issue stories that culminate into something cohesive (at least ideally). And given the sort of characters in this story I can get why it would appeal to that audience. But it's funny that

tbh I've never read a comic that's so varied in quality as Deniz Camp's "Assorted Crisis Events." The Hearth and Gig stories are total shit, but the "Temporal Diminishment" and the "Strange Loops" story is goddamn phenomenal. The inconsistency here is oddly fascinating to me.

the criticism the story gets is not exposition dumping everything or not liking one aspect of the thematic messaging which always felt reductive to me.

One issue stories is something those publications do a lot and are in many cases iconic and defining for various characters. With Road stories I think it’s neat that it allows the setting to play into various narrative beats without having to commit to a larger arc. Kinda feel like a lot of the

The series does have a tendency to linger on a specific area for a long time so I thought Road Stories was valuable in how it shows how many things Erica has dealt with and that her experience is actually quite expansive. It’s kinda weird to me that it gets disliked by DC/Marvel fans given that
