Seen so many comic book movie people breathlessly pulling panels from Secret Wars of Doom ripping out spines and going "when RDJ does THIS!!" and it makes me sad because the comics are clearly just scenery for these guys. Catharsis and substance stripped down for action figures.

Think I've said this before but feels like one of the biggest missed opportunities of the 2010s that we didn't get L.A. Noire sequels where each one was a different decade/take on the genre? You've already done Ellroy, now gimme a bit of Siegel, Friedkin and Mann!

This isn't anything new - people have been desperate for highlight reels to vapidly subsume these stories into their personal trivia vaults for years - but it's even more frustrating when it's related to probably the definitive Marvel text or the last two decades.

If your first instinct when someone is accused of sexual assault is to anonymously dogpile the brave women who've come out to share their stories, you need to have a LONG rethink on your priorities. Your idol worship means nothing compared to what any survivor is experiencing.

Hey, so, I reviewed Gotham Knights and really, thoroughly enjoyed it. Despite some issues with combat and a gear system I could've really done without, Montréal cut to the core of what makes the Bat Family so compelling. Also the first Batman story to make me care about Red Hood!

And yes, RDJ's casting is incompatible with all of this. Masks and makeup cannot extricate him from the context of what came before, which is precisely Marvel's intent. The total nadir of this genre and moment in cinema.
