I think you all just don't get it.

In 10-20 years, this movie will be more appreciated. Don't know why you all keep comparing it to Oppenheimer, when it's becoming clear that this movie is not trying to be like Oppenheimer.

Style looks great but I hope there's more to the story than just 'hey look a bunch of pokemon being cute"
If it's like Rilukkama and Kaoru, the other slice-of-life, grounded show made by the studio, involving "cute" characters with a woman as the main human character, the story won't be too deep. It's just meant to be little tidbits about enjoying the little things/an anti-grand story so to speak.

oh a funny one ive seen. so in one of the dmc novels there is a description of Urizen causing the earth to shake (i believe this was machine translated just based on how it looked lol).

so to me this means he caused a local earthquake. Earth probably means the ground right?

some people believe it means he shook the entire planet. so now urizen is a continental+ tier character minimum despite not really having feats for that. i still think he is like city level max.
Yeah, you see that all the time too. One-time feats that are way above their normal paygrade either through ambiguity as you mentioned, or a writer that believes in the "rule of cool" above all and just wants to make the character do something outrageous so people will think the character is awesome.

I love Mario, and he does have super strength to some degree, but the scene where he kicks a castle in SMW is funny to use as a strength feat. This is a character who is shown to be able to pick up things like King Bob-omb, but not easily. It's clearly a case where Mario kicking a castle in the air is funny because you're not supposed to take that seriously, lol. You're not supposed to take that and use that to mean Mario can punch a hole through the Earth cleanly.

I wasn't trying to mean just DB itself, but the entire concept. The second that you start to branch out beyond a couple of very specific examples you quickly end up with characters who are exactly as you say in that they are extremely inconsistent to an absurd degree. Thus it very much comes out as a "this person wins because I like them more" more than anything else as most of the time just going off of strict math is just going to end up nowhere, yet if you go past that to look at the math you end up with patently goofy nonsense.
Yeah, very fair. Death Battle is cool as I do like the animations; I just find powerscaling discussions in general to be dumb nowadays. When did every character become multiversal?

there is so much wanking because its common for lower tier characters to fight against higher tier characters and either win or not die. so then they scale that lower tier character up

or there is some vague feats that let people go ham. dragonball super is full of them (like goku bypassing hits weak time stop power = him being above time or some shit). so now they can say whatever they want

or misinterpreting/mistranlating japanese light novel feats (like metaphorical descriptions such as "super dimensional character" being taken seriously and now that character who has only street level feats is above 3 dimensional).
I recall Link vs Cloud being full of this (both fights). Examples such as Link dodging a laser beam meaning he has faster than light reaction when I think we all know that's just bologna. Speed seems to be the worst thing in discussion as people will always find something that makes a character end up being faster-than-light despite struggling constantly to find average humans that disappear within a few seconds when faster-than-light should mean you could run all over the place and find said character instantly.

Durability and strength end up pretty bad too for reasons I mentioned in OP.

Edit: Don't even get me started on matchups involving character A vs character B, but character B needs xyz to be killed that A doesn't have. Why even have that matchup then? Character A could be God and you would say they can't kill B because they don't have the ability to twist their pinky into a knot which is the only way to kill B. Reminds me of Bowser vs Ganondorf when they subscribed to the idea that Ganon is unkillable without a sacred weapon like the master sword. I don't think they would come to the same conclusion nowadays, but if that was the reasoning, why even have them fight? You clearly just made Ganondorf a "Link-only" fight.

I mean, that's why everyone that has been saying that the whole thing is dumb from the get go has been saying that it's dumb. It was pretty obvious from the get go that the second that characters from flagrantly different situations were matched up with one another that this is where it was going to end up. Similarly the whole concept of the "toon force" is just an extrapolation of what essentially 99.9% of what makes up the whole affair. For every character like The Flash where they recognize that physics would absolutely not work with what they were saying there are hundreds of thousands that the person doing the writing flagrantly is just doing things because it seems cool and not actually giving a crap about the actual physical ramifications (which is cool up until someone tries to do something like compare their strength versus another character from a different setting).
I mean, I never have taken DB as some gospel because it really is just a big budget playground argument. It's more so how every character in the series is just characters who all-powerful despite losing to weak characters at the end of the day because story matters more than this idea of powerscaling.

Literally every character has some feat where they can "destroy a multiverse" and are basically omnipotent gods, but this omnipotent god is slightly more omnipotent than the other omnipotent god therefore they are the winner.

But then they struggle against some ordinary human at times or something dumb.

Like, hearing about Rick vs the doctor; it's just the doctor who fans talking about how Rick has literally no chance because of this 1983 obscure piece of media or such despite both characters frequently struggling against guy with a gun (for story or joke purposes). I feel like tv shows/comics don't really have a good grasp of the size and scope of a galaxy much less a universe. Power scaling is kinda lame nowadays. Honestly, playground "who would in a fight" are more entertaining than hearing these Tier-A2 multiverse low-scale omnipotent terms being thrown around.

But... I guess that's just a bad feature of long-lasting tv shows where the coolness comes in how destructive you can be. Being able to punch a hole through a brick wall just doesn't do much for people anymore.

On a side note, the idea of toon force as some power level in discussion is super lame too. It kinda simplifies the rules of cartoony physics way too much as if there aren't times when sometimes "rule of cool" or other rules trump out "rule of funny" or such. It's also taking "toon force" as a concept too seriously, and in a way I don't think we are supposed to think of.

Yeah, looked it up and it's the same studio.
I thought that Rilakkuma and Kaoru was ok, just kinda boring. But this looks pretty fun.
I mean, that's fair, I liked it, was pretty chill and my little sister found it very amusing, but admittedly, we're both probably not the target audience for that show, haha. From what I understand from the little research I have done about that fanbase a year or two ago, Rilakkuma appeals to the 30+ year-old single, Japanese women of the world, which is who Kaoru was even supposed to represent. The demographics of Americans are probably similar; just lonely older ladies, as mean as that might sound.

Regardless, I liked the aesthetic of the show, so it's cool to see them get more work!

Parents should only be facing civil charges as they are the guardians, aka, the ones responsible for the awful act these teens did.

Criminal charges, though, unless there's evidence the parents had an active involvement, is just trying to throw blind revenge anywhere, without caring about the concept of justice. Awful kids can still come from great, supportive parents.

Prison, regardless if you think its purpose is for revenge or rehabilitation, is a way to make sure people can't be a danger for a period of time to the general public. I don't see how this serves that.

Yeah, Planet Hulk, World War Hulk, or even cashing in on Immortal Hulk's success, it's a shame just how much of his stuff has been ignored and it'll be a while before there's another chance to do all of that again (as in, we'll have to wait for a reboot many, many, many years down the line).

I think the Hulk is one of the easier characters to build back up, though. The way he's designed and acts is just something that works as a crowd-pleaser for just seeing stuff get hit.

In terms of popularity, he used to always be the de facto hero for Marvel along with Spider-Man and Wolverine.

The main reason is the Universal distribution rights fiasco, and since Disney owns Marvel, they don't want another studio to have the distribution rights to their films.

It's just a shame, though, because the Hulk seems to have a great deal of iconic comic runs that Marvel could use for their stories. It's actually crazy just hearing how many he has compared to other superheroes where people seem to hate more of the runs than they actually like. He even just had one a few years ago that people hailed as a classic. It's not a lack of source material, and deep down, people love super strength as a power. They go crazy for Hulk Smash.

I guess, in the end, at least the MCU was able to raise other heroes' stock up in the general audience's eyes.

You have to work 8 hours regardless.

On top of that, there's more prep time in the morning to get ready. On top of that, if I arrive after 8:30, parking is $25 along with the gas money... it's not worth.

The recent favorable polls for him are comically off, like the one showing him +5 in Michigan, which is super lol. Honestly, the worth of polls to anyone should be well diminished at this point, never mind that polls a year out aren't worth a damn anyways, even back when polling in general was still kinda sorta trustworthy.

But hey, any motivation to get the vote out is fine by me, but realistic honesty is key. And the reality is, we're going on 4 years now of a total Blue Wave.
Honestly, I find https://www.racetothewh.com/president/polls to be my new aggregate system. As of now, they do have Trump winning, but that's based on current polling data, and I believe they were even more accurate than 538 during 2020. They are very transparent about races they predicted right/wrong as well, and had the best model for the 2022 House race totals.

For instance, you will see they have Trump winning Michigan based on poll data... but only by .2%, which is well within the MoE, as well as the fact that early polls are going to favor challengers for the presidency.

I still like to cross-reference 538 as I think it's still a decent aggregate site. After all, it still gave Trump a 30% chance to win the White House, which was much higher than all of the other sites were giving him. I remember when they were criticized for that, when they were just trying to be an objective polling aggregate, lol.

I do not believe he will be. Polls are looking good for him right now, but tbh, polls have been over-representing Trump supporters for a while now. Democrats have overperformed in each election, especially against the Trump candidates. The more Trump you appear, the more Americans feel encouraged to vote in order to make sure you don't even accidentally get elected.

Not to mention, there might be some independents that are thinking of voting for Trump, but that's because they have, for the most part, not been reminded of who he is. No tweets, he's not the president, etc. When Trump (assuming he is able to avoid jail, which I think he will, but life has given us many surprises, so we'll see) is the nominee again, they all will be reminded of who Trump is, and just like they have done for the last 5 years, they will reject Trumpism.

Not to mention, Republicans are convinced they can win the abortion issue, and Trump is the guy who nominated the court that is even making abortion an issue. Democrats can literally paint Trump as the face of Roe v. Wade being overturned, and we have seen just how strongly turnout will be to keep abortion as an option. I don't foresee abortion not being an issue in 2024, which makes it really hard for me to see how Trump is going to win.

The economy was arguably weak in 2022, which usually would result in a massacre for the majority party, but for once, there seem to be factors that voters care more about than that. I think we'll see the polls start to reflect Trump's actual national numbers when we actually get closer to the election, and I bet the battleground states will inaccurately over-exaggerate Trump's support on an individual basis. It's not like the Rust Belt was overwhelmingly voting for Trump in the first place in 2016, and I feel the Democrats have been able to get them back to the usual blue we would expect. Arizona and Nevada have just been a disappointment for Trumplicans in general.

All we have to do is play our part and put in our vote. I will be filling in that bubble next to Biden, and I will hopefully be doing my part to kill the Trumplican party after he loses a 2nd time.

I'm excited that this movie has a chance. Someone just has to buy the distribution rights now. Hopefully, one company will take the gamble to see if the internet will make for a good advertising campaign.

If it released in 2016, it defo would have gotten nominations.

I thought, regardless, that his sister was a democrat. I know about Mary Trump, but I'm pretty sure she is too.

I will never understand peoples obsession with saying that the first is the best one for anything media related. Like this music artists first album is the always the best, the first season of a tv show is always the best, and what this topic is.

Is it a hipster ego thing? Makes them feel so special for thinking the first release to be the best entry always? Im just pointing it out because its always the universally popular stance to choose on the internet for whatever reason, and its kind of obnoxious to see all the time.
I mean, I don't agree with it always, but there's some reason why it happens. The first is typically any series at its freshest. It's when the creatives had the largest, natural spark to create for that, and they really had a passion for this idea. Many times, sequels are mandated, and at that point, even if good, you can tell where they had to go through the motions of it, or it just doesn't snap as well together.

When you first create something, there are so many possibilities, so much energy, so much excitement. Afterwards, you are bound by the limitations you gave yourself from the original source material. It's probably why Shrek 2 doesn't get this treatment, considering 2 went a different route/didn't constrain itself to what "Shrek 1" might have established.

It's objectively Rocky.

Creed is good, but it sorta has the Rocky 2 feeling to it, which is good, but not reaching the heights of 1. Rocky was a movie about a man, and that's what made it special.

The others are fun, but Rocky touches your soul in a way the others can reach.

Edit: There's a reason why Rocky 1 won best picture.

The unfortunate reality is that apathy among men is too high. I work with the type of people who just shrug these things off more so as a "man shouldn't be allowing himself to get caught" rather than "this guy is a scumbag, good riddance." Type of people to say "I know he is a bad person but god damn he's good, glad he's on my team."

The type of people to call Mahomes' wife all sorts of things before they would ever call a rapist an awful person.

We really should be less forgiving for rape as a society, but we aren't.

Tbh, I find shows that introduce the multiverse early on are actually intending to use the multiverse as a real story element rather than those that use it years after starting when its more so just a way to create crossovers that could never happen otherwise or to write around the limitations you gave yourself early on.

Not that the latter means it has to be bad, but the former deserves at least some benefit of the doubt before writing it off.

There is an attempt at making Gen Z look more right-wing than it is by a long-shot. Gen Z is going to be so left it will make Millennials uncomfortable.

I do have fears about the younger gen z, and older gen alpha males though with Logan Paul and Andrew Tate being mentors. We'll see if that eventually corrects itself

I'm not too big on multiverse stuff as a whole either, but I feel Invincible puts nice spins on these tropes, so I'm not too bothered yet.
