Cap x Bucky x Sam can finally be realized!

The pandemic isn't going to let up soon. Frankly, I don't feel safe returning to a mainstream theater, either. I definitely think that Disney should look into just going all-in on streaming. The...

I'm not really sure I get the point of Wonder Woman 1984. It just seems like a really weird story to tell.

I'm not really a fan of how the movie just seems to be "women must suffer." Diana reacts...

I wish they'd spent more time on CG Luke, as well as letting him be a little goofy. He was way too stiff for that scene where he talks to Mando and Grogu, IMO.

But it's already sending the opposite message. A trans woman was depicted as a villain, a murder, unable to afford to transition and then she was killed off without having her story expanded upon and...

Yeah, the comic--being a corporate product--really does seem to frame the 'villains' as being in the wrong. It's oddly 'libertarian' and Ayn Randy-esque. It argues that the villains are just 'lazy'...

God, I hope Sam and Bucky kiss and get together.

This can work. If the movie begins with Pete needing a lawyer--rather than him going on the run--they just need to do a jaunty little musical montage of Pete trying to convince various--perhaps...

...why do they need fan money? Like, isn't his estate super wealthy?

I was hoping for 'Kacchan' as the hero name. Coward.

I wonder who the 'he' referenced here is? If Deku, Bakugou and Todoroki are The Three Musketeers then the perspective would be from outside of those three. Hmm...

Yeah, but Tomioka Atsuhiro is a better writer than Toriyama so the anime is often much better, especially when their hands aren't so tied by weird restrictions on what kind of shit they can and...

I feel like I would have liked this chapter if the arc hadn't been so fucking terrible since the end of the Namek portion. I really wish Moro had had more depth to his character. :(

Hahi was an episode director on #118, too, so this is his first full episode directing debut. He and his animators really put a lot into the episode.

I keep foreseeing Rei dispelling the story and revealing that she was an active participant in whatever Endeavor did. I hope not, though. Boku no Hero Academia is a comic franchise for children so...

I hope Mama Todoroki escapes to the battle scene to join the fight. It's so tiring seeing her as a pawn in the story.

That's why it comes across so heavily that Horikoshi views the State and heroes as being in-the-right, while trying to muddy the waters by just claiming the 'villains' to be sore losers. It's...

The structure of the fight is being dragged out, for sure. I feel like the chapter could have easily cut material. We don't NEED to see how Toga and Ochako meet, just cut to them having met and use...

Gosh, I wish. I'm on my PC. I must be really used to typing 'Horikawa Ryou'...

I just realized I've been calling Horikoshi 'Horikawa' and now I want to crawl into a hole and not come out. :lol:

That's why we must be critical, so that Horikoshi, JUMP editorial and more are held to a standard. This "oh, well!" attitude is antithetical to even the most barebones position one can and should...

Media studies and media theory have existed for as long as there has been media. Twitter is simply a platform for people to discuss media theory on, no different than the fanzines or pubs of yore.
...

Kill la Kill is about how we sexualize the body, in particular the bodies of people assigned female at birth--the series isn't even sharp enough to really dig beyond cisnormitivity--so that's another...

Tiger's transition is only mentioned in off-hand character notes and also framed as being a result of him being a Responsible Member of Society. The thing about that is even in reality there are...

Damn, I wish I had the privilege of accusing others of just wanting to turn shit into 'debate messes' and 'taking personal offense' at 'FICTION'.

Sweetie, context matters. If this was a porn comic...

This arc is already completely unwieldy but god, I hope Gokuu kills Moro for good in this chapter.

Everything is political and we should be critical of the manner in which entertainment media is used to educate and re-enforce negative stereotypes and ideologies, most especially in children's...

I don't think there's anything wrong with suggesting that Horikawa just doesn't think his own philosophy through, but it's also just difficult to tell what exactly his philosophy is when he's...

Fuck Thatcher, fuck the US, too. Bunch of terrorists.

Horikoshi is either an authoritarian or a really stupid centrist/neoliberal who wants to shame marginalized people who use violence to achieve...

The problem is that Horikawa doesn't really seem to buy into authoritarianism (the heroes) as being wrong. There's not enough of a strong depiction of the 'villains' as being the protagonists: Toga,...
