    i'm confused how you got this out of what i said. i know it was confused but i didn't think it was so bad you could come to this kind of confusion. i really hecked that up.

    'hecked up' is a meme. i am cool.

    I was joking, Klino.

    I mean I really am not sure what you meant, but that was a joke also.

    All of this makes me wonder if ancient cultures had personal aesthetics and dank memes.

    Older than that, even. Like, what sorts of stock jokes and horrible catch phrases did the Greeks and Romans have?

    ...I should really go read the Pompeii graffiti transcripts again.

    That's not an aesthetic, that's just an aes-hole.

  • THIS MACHINE KILLS FASCISTS
    it's like the early 20th century version of "your waifu is trash"

    and in that moment we were content
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    i do appreciate the comics where instead of just seeing True punching someone, we get something a little more elaborate or indirect

    i liked the one where he shoved someone through a fence, also
  • You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022

  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    i just kinda wanna

    in terms of what the words actually mean in the context of media studies, if you go to an art gallery or the theatre or the opera and do not consume content, then you've gone there and not looked at any paintings, or haven't watched the play, or wore ear plugs the whole time

    so i guess i feel like when people attach this insidious underlying meaning to references to 'content' they're reading something into it that wasn't intended, and in the process robbing us of a perfectly good general term for the practice of experiencing things that other people created, which the language was lacking

    i mean there's 'reading texts' but that makes it sound like you're just talking about words on a page/screen

    i know the horse is dead but everyone else is beating it (NOT just Myr) so hey

    (i feel i could laugh about this more easily if it weren't for the severity of the condemnation and the fact that one heaper's actually a great film is another heaper's mind-numbing Content)

    another cringe-inducing overly long pretentious tach ramble i can't do succinct

    TBF, I'm not sure that any of us actually like the MCU anymore.
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    kinda wonder if i'd understand MCU hate more if i were into superheroes

    to me it's just not that interesting
  • We can do anything if we do it together.
    I've started to suspect that I just don't like superheroes myself, but if that was true, I wouldn't like BTAS.

    I am really not sure what to think here.
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    i liked BTAS as a kid, but not as much as most cartoon fans on the internet apparently did
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    otoh at this point i'm into several anime shows that are basically superhero stories i guess
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    I enjoy superheroes to a degree

    But whatever made the MCU appealing has worn thin

    It might be because the films are cranked out in this sort of mass-produced manner
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    also, to be honest, Age of Ultron feels like the exact moment that the MCU ran out of steam to me

    I haven't watched Ant-Man, not yet at least
  • Man is a most complex simple creature: see what he weaves, and how base his reasons for doing so.
    All these different genres and tones that can be explored and it's "snarky 21st century science fiction" that wins out.

    I'm extremely sad that people didn't really like "two-fisted period piece" or "land of the supergods in Oklahoma" and those were the movies I really wanted to see the most of.
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    which ones are those? First Avenger sounds like the period piece...
  • Man is a most complex simple creature: see what he weaves, and how base his reasons for doing so.
    Thor.
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    I don't know what people's problem with the first Thor was, it seems like I tend to gravitate towards things on which the nerd consensus is "disappointing"
  • sci-fi is somehow mature and acceptable but fantasy that isn't Game of Thrones just "doesn't work".

    IDK, I haven't seen it so I shouldn't rush to its defense, maybe it's awful.
  • it's impressively, awkwardly bad.

    awkward acting on a bad script, poor pacing, fails to stand on its own.

    "mature" tends to be one of those words that makes my brain tune out
  • this isn't my hyperbolic Winter Soldier dislike here, this is my honest assessment
  • also MCU Thor is more sci-fi than fantasy

  • “I'm surprised. Those clothes… but, aren't you…?”
    There's plenty of very popular fantasy that isn't GRRM-related, guys. And in literature, fantasy in various forms is more mainstream than science fiction.
  • also very true
