    At least, not any more than usual.

    Their stuff is objectively successful. I just don't like it any more.

    Also, I haven't read mainline Marvel comics for like... nearly a decade so I can't really comment on that stuff either. XD
    To be fair I will probably give Bland Widow a miss, so I can't say I will be seeing every MCU film post Endgame.

    Any way I think the reason the MCU was the only Cinematic universe that actual succeeded was partially because they had the benefit of being the first and thus the novelty of it all made it easier to overlook the problems, because it actualy did take them a while to get it right. By the time the novelty wore off they had more less got it down to science, so that didn't end being a problem for them. Every other Cinematic universe though dosn't have the benefit of said novelty and thus the audience are less patient with their struggles to find their voice.

    Watched the pilot to Hazbin Hotel, and... I honestly enjoyed it. Had a little trouble hearing some of the dialogue over the background music, but otherwise it was great and a good pilot, in my opinion. Set up the world, introduced the major players, and gave us the basic plot of the series (daughter of the Devil wants to use her hotel to redeem those in Hell so they don't have to keep engaging in 'Cleanses' to control the population number). I really want to see more of this show.
    Critics who treat adult as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence.

    I'm afraid I won't. I've never really got on with the Hulk as a property and the scans I saw didn't grab me at all.

    Speaking of the MCU , I've don't quit get why they have so many SH Figuarts over in Japan. From what I understand Spider-man is the only Marvel character who's all that popular in Japan, so I don't get why a primarily Japanese figure line, would have a **** ton of MCU figures.

    Probably because they're popular enough to warrant all those figures.

    Pretty simple really. There's a demand for them, so they're made.

    So, I read Shadow of the Batgirl.

    It's not the Cass I wanted, but that Cass is never coming back and it's a fun take on the story. I've read worse - a LOT worse, including NuCass.

    You should go see Harley Quinn: Birds of Prey.

    They have the best Cass representation ever.
    Yeah, but if you... man, we're getting into weird analogy territory, like if you disintegrated Superman's arms he wouldn't be able to go "fool! Little did you know that my arms and I are one and can be remade from me!" and will his arms back into being from pure nothingness. - Pendaran

    Problem: I detest Harley's character.

    ...I've also been warned about Cass in that movie, so your trap has failed.

    It was a terrible trap. I was one of the ones who said she sucked. But my suffering must be shared. Cass is dead.

    I shall suffer with you in a week or so.

    Why am I going to this movie? I don't care that much for Harley Quinn and I know that they only have Cass in name.

    I think I at least want to know what I'm complaining about rather than basing it on what other people have said.

    She's gone, but not forgotten is all. Especially not on this board.

    Soooooo, Netflix and Todd Mcfarlane are in talks about making two different animated cartoons for Spawn - one for adults, and the other aimed at the preteen demographic. I don't know how the hell you domesticate Spawn for children, but I'm interested.

    Kenpachi: Some say my mother was a train. Some say that I'm a rejected Godzilla monster too strong for the series canon. But everyone says: I'M THE KEEEEENPACHIIIIII!!!!

    I'm imagining an "edgier" version of the animated Mask series.
