Tony Stark was always a shit character, the only storyline that was good was Demon in a Bottle. It's amazing that a B-lister Marvel superhero got so famous.

Eh, to each their own. I am biased though too, I'm a huge Superman fan myself and felt he was done justice for the first time since the 1979 movie really.

W. that you?

There's two somewhat good character moments (Johnny and Sue) but I wouldn't say that it's worth it just for those. I honestly wished I'd watched something else. For those 'must see moments' I just watch a clip on youtube. That's what I did for the Illuminati scene in Dr. Strange, and even that wasn't that great, and probably will do te same for Avengers Doomsday (especially after this). The last battle is a spectacle but it's not super thrilling imho. I really just wanted to see Galactus (which they did do justice, at least with character and design) but it was ho-hum at best. It's a shame because I did expect more from the most iconic story in FF history.

Edit: Watch Superman if you want a genuinely fun superhero experience with great scenes and character moments.

As a person who has shoplifted in the past many a time you have no idea how so many wage slaves take guarding their billionaire overlord's inventory so zealously, it's seriously insane. It's like you're personally ripping them off and not a shitty store that gives zero fucks about their lives.

Itsss prrrecious

The Guy Gardner lol

Nice! This looks like it might be pretty cool. I just beat SMB on the original cart this past year so this might be a good complement. Thanks for the find ;)

Beat me to it, damnit

Twain was such a fucking amazing person. One of my favorite books of all time will always be a Conneticut Yankee in King Aurthur's Court.

I am a big Superman fan and I can't tell you how wrong this take is. Yes, certain comics portray Superman as friend and believer in the "American Way" and as sometimes ally of the US military. However, those takes are far from the normal status quo. Of course you get particularly liberal-minded writers who frequently use that take. However, those writers are the exception rather than the rule. Hell, the most famous instance of Superman being a government shill came from Frank Miller in The Dark Knight which is such a poor take on Superman as to be parody. Miller famously hates Superman and found a way to character assassinate him and have Batman beat the shit out of him (laughable). Frequently the US government and Superman are at odds with each other and Superman regularly defies them even going so far as to directly stop their actions.

Superman got his start as someone that opposed societal oppression in all it's forms. In one golden age story Superman literally tears down a dilapidated tenement building being run by a slumlord who was extorting his tenants and refusing repairs, finding proper housing for the folks and forcing the slumlord to sell to the city to build something suitable. In another story Superman poses as a miner and goes undercover to expose a ruthless businessman exploiting his workers at the mine.

If Superman existed in the real world he definitely would be horrified at the actions of Israel and I have no doubt he'd step in. That's actually a big point in the movie as he causes an international incident by stepping into stop troops from murdering civilians in a nation that is an obvious stand-in for Israel (it even had it's own completely obvious pastiche of Netanyahu who meets a grisly fate at the end). At the end of the day these are American comics, by writers of various political and social backgrounds that will sometimes use Superman as a tool of patriotism and fundamentally misrepresent the essence of the character. It's going to happen from time to time (pretty sure I just read an issue of Action Comics recently that made me cringe with the writer's sucking-off of the military).

I spent years doing that with Morrowind before I wised up. I actually download OpenMW recently just to take a look, and had the most "been there, done that" feeling ever from playing a game. I gave up on Bethesda after Skyrim and never looked back, and my gaming life became all the better for it.
