by all means, keep recommending stuff though, unless you know i'll hate it

it's all stuff i'll have to watch at some point anyway

I think I've recommended every anime I've watched that I enjoyed. I even figured Gargantia was a long shot for you because of the fan service and slice of life-isms. I enjoyed how the story turned out, and thought it ended up being almost a satire of the Shonen/mecha tropes that the male protagonist (can't remember his name... 'L' something) seems to embody at the beginning. Could be wrong. It just caught me off guard as unusually high in animation and plot quality for anime.

Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet (Production I.G, 2013, five episodes) Fuck me running. These are the kinds of shows that just piss me the fuck off and make me want to spit flames. Simply put, it's just the same old regurgitated fucking troped-up plot of every single one of my least favorite shows of all time rolled up into one horrific amalgam.

Yeah, wasn't expecting that

Like, it's not great, but it sure as hell bucks the plot tropes of the genre and I'm not sure what he's getting at there. Then again, I haven't seen much anime so maybe I'm just not aware of the tropes.

And Verb, I really don't agree that the MCU's primary source of tension comes from character death. I think that's the superhero genre's biggest problem, and comic books' biggest source of tedium. In the MCU, tension comes from the sociological, psychological, and physical consequences, rather than survival.

Tony Stark goes from being a naive war-profiteer to a jaded, paranoid sufferer of PTSD, while losing the trust of just about everyone he relied on. Captain America begins as an almost brainwashed super-patriot to becoming an actual traitor who constantly fights his best friends (both of whom have been manipulated by the government he trusted).

Thor is a [privileged] literal god who constantly get shown how fucking dumb and shortsighted he is, ultimately losing his entire family, home, and species (or..whatever asgardians are).

The entire 10 years of MCU has been a gradual, believable descent into the chaos and madness that was SHIELD being overrun by Hydra, the disbanding of the Avengers, and their defeat by Thanos. And I don't think any of these character deaths would have worked in any of the other movies. It's weird to see you ridicule shows like TWD and GoT as overly-reliant on main character deaths to drive the plot, and then say that the MCU does and/or should do the same thing, rather than be glad that it actually doesn't.

Also it's neat to see you enjoy the movie.

CinemaSins isn't film criticism though, and they don't pretend they are

Occasionally they'll have something serious to say about a film, but that isn't the point of the videos
hence the quotation marks, but that doesn't stop people from treating his videos as genuine critiques

which i suppose isn't his fault, but regardless, it's just shit content through and through, so i don't think it's fair to throw people like adam into the same ball pit

Yeah, comparing CinemaSins to YMS is ridiculous... Also he (relatively) enjoyed Infinity War, so I don't know what's there to complain about.

Did you see RLM's parody of CinemaSins in a recent video? I think it was from A Quiet Place.

I feel like the Walking Dead and Game of Thrones mindset has really affected how people judge comic movies. Why do characters have to die for there to be stakes? It's not like the characters have remained static throughout the films.

Tbh I think the majority of the serious questions you asked are pretty easily answered


Spoiler
My biggest complaint is that wiping out half the population wouldn't really solve much...the human population doubles in less than 100 years, so unless Thanos plans to snap his fingers every century (apparently not possible after the first time he did it), then his plan is childishly stupid. Not as dumb as an attempt to seduce the literal embodiment of death, but I think it undermines his character quite a bit.
Spoiler
only if the ones culled were arbitrarily selected

which they very well may have been, but perhaps there was some method to it, like only culling the ones most likely to reproduce? or something like that

Spoiler
It was stated that he wanted to do it entirely at random on Titan, so imagine that was his universal plan

And yeah, he's 'mad', but he was never portrayed as insane or even illogical

As for the sequel, I'm not too familiar with Thanos in the comics but I'm hoping he's no longer the villain. It seems like his goal is complete and the stones lost some of their power. Maybe they'll introduce some rival or larger conflict...who knows. I even suspected Scarlet Witch of becoming the villain at the end of infinity war.

Does anyone else think Thor, Loki and Hulk fucked everything up in retrospect? I mean, if they hadn't killed Hela in Ragnarok and took the space stone off Asgard Thanos would have never accomplished anything. She would have literally turned that grapefruit inside out had he tried anything.

Why would she have been more successful than Thor?

RT doesn't even aggregate review scores, or at least the "tomatometer" doesn't

the tomatometer is a percentage of how many reviewers gave it a positive review

that means 1000 people could all have given the film a 6/10, and it would display as 100%

That's still aggregation, but with a hell of a bell curve

The point that is that those sites can suck a dick

AR-15-style weapons are used about as frequently in mass shootings as other weapons, and are only used in a small minority of other gun-related homicides. Focusing on one specific platform is useless.

Tbh I disagree that all marvel films are mindless popcorn flicks, but I don't care enough about the genre to defend it very far. It seems pretty apparent that franchises like Deadpool, GotG, and Captain America have more for the audience than big action setpieces.

Dark Souls Switch is just DSFix on a console, and that's fine. Maybe it would've been cool if From had polished a cut boss, but I think it'll be neat to be able to experience the game again at launch, when the online interactions are at their best.
