“Perhaps no fictional character has had as impressive a fictional life as Superman.” -Alan Moore

@Noteless @CFCLOLS @_JJ_son_ @BOOMERANG_117 Yeah I should’ve worded that part better, I just meant that Thanos as a character wasn’t so driven by nostalgia as RDJ Doom is

[BigThalamus @PresentTrunks_]

@CFCLOLS @_JJ_son_ @BOOMERANG_117 I mean agree to disagree I just think representation is a crucial part of casting 🤷‍♂️

[BigThalamus @PresentTrunks_]

@CFCLOLS @_JJ_son_ @BOOMERANG_117 Doom and his mother were persecuted and abused for being romani. It is an essential part of his character. Also, romani people don’t get much representation in mainstream films, so taking a character so deeply tied to his romani roots and not casting a romani person is terrible

[BigThalamus @PresentTrunks_]

@VA19_PR @_JJ_son_ @BOOMERANG_117 Trailers are supposed to sell you on the film and not only give you insight on the movie, but the characters. Maybe they’re hiding a pitch-perfect version of Doom in the actual movie but from what they’ve given us, he doesn’t look compelling or interesting lol

[BigThalamus @PresentTrunks_]

@CFCLOLS @_JJ_son_ @BOOMERANG_117 I agree changing things aren’t inherently bad, but the choices they’re making with this version are…bad. Not casting a romani actor, not having a pre-established rivalry with Reed, and making him motivated by losing his wife and kids, etc are all bad choices

[BigThalamus @PresentTrunks_]

@CFCLOLS @_JJ_son_ @BOOMERANG_117 I mean Ultron coming back wouldn’t really fix what’s wrong with his character and Thanos was still explicitly shown throughout multiple movies among other smaller things

[BigThalamus @PresentTrunks_]

@INAR120 @_JJ_son_ @BOOMERANG_117 All power to you if you’re excited! It’s just nothing about this Doom has interested me lol

[BigThalamus @PresentTrunks_]

@CFCLOLS @_JJ_son_ @BOOMERANG_117 Thanos had actual build up and wasn’t a cash grab banking on nostalgia, Ultron is terrible, and Loki is actually pretty good i’ll give you that

@INAR120 @_JJ_son_ @BOOMERANG_117

[BigThalamus @PresentTrunks_]

@un_gato_tonto @_JJ_son_ @BOOMERANG_117 The difference is that this version of Doom is shaping up to be a bland, uninspired cash grab with 0 build up

[BigThalamus @PresentTrunks_]

@_JJ_son_ @BOOMERANG_117 Doom was always an asshole lmao, next to nothing about the MCU’s verison of Doom resembles comics Doom

[BigThalamus @PresentTrunks_]

Non romani Doom followed up by non jewish Magneto

[Cosmic Marvel @cosmic_marvel]

Adam Driver has reportedly been cast as Magneto in the ‘X-MEN’ reboot film.

@MaryJaneWAPson This is just like how Gwen helps Aunt May with groceries ❤️

@konkonxo Because you said something unremarkably stupid and downright disgusting

[BigThalamus @PresentTrunks_]

@MaryJaneWAPson The best version of the turtles outside of maybe IDW

@CrashoutComics has become one of my favorite youtube channels atm. Geniunely hilarious and they have some really interesting discussions as well

[BigThalamus @PresentTrunks_]

@SpiderKM06 Asking an MCU Spider-Man fan to read the source material is like expecting a fish to rock climb

@akachi_is “How i’d ma-“

[BigThalamus @PresentTrunks_]

The more I dwell on it the more it feels as if it’s trying to be a reaction to the criticism MOS got rather than trying to be its own film, like how Rise of Skywalker was a reaction to TLJ.

[jules 💙 @SymbolofKrypton]

It’s been nearly a year since this movie came out, what is your opinion on it now?
