Marvel General: I love the Powerglove, it's so badorAfter The ApocalypseEdition Previous thread ==> >>46850 Remember to use spoilers. Is it all down hill from here? Has Disney's Marvel cinematic universe set the bar too high? Will audiences ever reach peak super hero fatigue? Is anybody actually watching the Marvel television series?
It's odd but my dad is talking about how much he is enjoying the new Daredevil series, despite how he usually hates everything superhero related (he liked the Punisher movies but that was it). The ironic part is that one of my comics he tore up in anger when I was a kid was actually an issue of Daredevil.
>>417247 Thanos is an absolutely garbage 'character', shouldn't have been kept around the Marvel universe after the first storyline to feature him. Too bad his creator was also his biggest fanboy.
>>417569 The problem with Thanos isn't his character, it's how the writers handle him. A nihilistic mad god? That's fucking entertaining. A mook who decides to kill half the galaxy to fix overpopulation? Sounds like a retard who skipped elementary school.
>>417520 What about a monster movie where one of the kaiju is literally just a giant human dude armed with a bunch of giant weapons as his gimmick?
Like he's still superstrong/tough and able to monster brawl (putting a giant beast in a headlock, suplexing a spaceship) but the host of weapons replace the spikes, blades and biological breath weapons etc other monsters have.
GODZILLA vs KONG Kong, accompanied by a mute little girl, is taken on a JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH to find the POWER AXE of the ANCESTORS. He is stalked by Godzilla every step of the way. Meanwhile, Greta Thunberg joins up with a Youtuber conspiracy nut to break into a super secret evil corporation facility because of reasons. The story is as thin as a porn movie, so it can lead to as much action as possible, but the horrible cinematography makes the fight scenes look so terrible that you could confuse this with Michael Bay's Transformers. The final boss does not help out in that regard either (it's a thin looking CGI Mechagodzilla, built around the corpse of King Ghidorah). And, naturally, it is set in Hong Kong because China must be impressed for the movie to make back its budget.
The movie is less dumb than King of Monsters, but less satisfying than the 2014 Godzilla, less fun than the 1997 Godzilla, and it's not worthy of polishing the shoes of Pacific Rim.
DC General: Beware the Batgirl Edition PREVIOUS ISSUE:>>46400
Why Batgirl? Because Warner Bros. has apparently decided to give Joss Whedon a shot at writing, producing, and directing a Batgirl film: http://birthmoviesdeath.com/2017/03/30/joss-whedon-will-direct-batgirl
>>417505 Nah, the law got him and he proved to be a cowardly little bitch who snitched on all his pals for a reduced sentence. Somehow his street cred survived being the very embodiment of "everybody is a gangasta until..." and is still selling his music, but hey I guess if you are a fan of a guy like him you can't be the sharpest knife in the drawer.

A Primus / Beatles crossover exists (Les Claypool and Lennon's Son) and has existed for a few years now AND I'VE ONLY JUST LEARNED ABOUT IT.
Been listening to the old Local H tunes lately, it's been a while since I last did. Their early 00s albums were the greatest. The later ones were okay, but not that good.

Watched the Cloverfield trilogy the last few days.
First movie is... a monster movie but with that goddamn stupid "shaky hand cam" style like the Blair Witch project. I consider this a horrible idea, especially when I was hoping for a monster movie. It's not bad as a movie though, there's suspense, catastrophe and bloodshed. I just don't like this direction style. And the movie kind of has no ending whatsoever.
Second movie (Cloverfield lane) is much better, and makes for a good thriller, even if it is somewhat predictable. The aliens in the end kind of ruin the movie sadly, they should've played a bigger role earlier on. Goodmans character could've had proper radio and some cameras set up too in his bunker, not just a VHF radio that wouldn't detect anything. The apocalypse scenario of it all should have been more emphasized, because without that the ending felt really out of place. The main character goes from a fashion designer to fighting aliens with Molotov cocktails in a span of ten minutes.

>>417495 Very. I remember reading the comic in the 00s, and the last volume was yet to have been released when the movie was made (and had a different ending).
Since nobody comes to this place anyways, what better time to make a new thread? Share the great and the valuable fan recordings and unreleased songs from the great musicians who lived at some point in history.
To keep the FUN going, please refrain from posting links to material that is commercially available.
I'll start with the overall greatest recording of the Radio KAOS tour by Roger Waters: https://mega.co.nz/#!n5oHBQ5Q!eBkiGSxvlNNaSIqkqL4D2FjMmjBJ9sMEMKfO6uAjuvM

Wrong person to answer that (I mostly watch older stuff), but currently watching Vikings. It's not super new, but the episodes I'm at were done within the last 5 years. The writing is a mish-mash of sagas, as well as creative liberty. What happens in the show and what the actors do on-screen is very realistic regarding actual human nature, with only mild romantization. The only flaws are an unnecessary blue tint on the camera and just a tad too much pointless drama (realistic, but I could use less).
Vikings is essentially Game of Thrones, with more realistic and down to earth.
>>417273 >What TV series is /mtv/ following nowadays? I'm stuck in a time warp watching 2003 cartoons and 90's CN. Most free-to-air TV in my country is downright abysmal.
