Antonio Sanchez - Doors and Distance (BIRDMAN OST)

"This isn't a backlot , Riggan, this is New York City. This is how we do things."

This is a movie where every single scene lands for me, the acting is so good. The casting director nailed it.

USE YOUR WORDS- "Mid" Is Just A Way To Make GOOD Things Seem BAD

"Mid" literally means mediocre, neutral. Neutral is neither or. "Mid means good" is lowering the bar, typical NPC low maintenance consumer crap.

A Nothing burger, thats Superman25 just like My Adventures with Lois-Chan, which it unfortunately took notes from down to the costume & the Krypton invader beats. Another modern Superman take with good intentions, and overall shite take because it got caught up in the destination instead of the journey & execution of it's supposed message.

The movie has fun moments but a movie isn't just moments, it's consistency, it's narrative, it's focus, it's the source material. The movie is standard Gunn-Schlock because unfortunately he both wrote & directed it AND HEADs the DCU, which means no one checks his quirks & antics.

Superman 25' had good intentions, but it's a mess, it's not bad enough to be dogshit but it's not competent or coherent enough to be "good", so lets not start this anime fan regressive crap mentality where as long as it's not 1/10, that means it's good.

Don't even start lowering the bar, not with Superman. Cause that just signals to James that he doesn't have to do better than the bare minimum he's been doing since his Marvel arc.

We're getting to the point where we'll call a fun, innocent D- movie a A+ just to spite the people who are reluctant to admit it's not an F.

Two sides of the same neophyte, playing into the same nonsense. It's forced as hell.

Deku's overlay move is something out of my mental book of brutal execution of super powers. (CHP413)

to puppeteer your own body with a tendril type power, from under your skin to compensate for body atrophy, and it adds a visual aesthetic like black veins, a demonic visual. Very nice KH, similar enough vibe without leaning too hard into the graphic nature of it, excellent taste.

And that's where Horikoshi's strongest suit shines: "Style/aesthetic/cool points"

"I think I just got a little fucking tired of being told what men need to do for women, and women can't even control their behaviors consistently."

I felt that, the charge of performance is always a one way street, that #HeForShe energy.

Women getting gaslighted that being a burden, sitting idle, expecting something for nothing/ie. being dead weight, a liability, a disadvantage is in any way attractive or worthy of procreation at worst or how a grown woman should behave at minimum.

But as with troublesome male behavior patterns, it all leads back to what the collective enables as okay, so the problem a lot of men have when rightfully stepping back is they get frustrated & forget that the dumb shit women are on from the laziness to the infantilism is society's fault.

Because society is the one insisting men always have the burden of performance and women just have to sit there: judge, be useless and learn nothing to be better options themselves. Or emulate half of what they expect from someone they think is "supposed to" approach them? Why? *Uhh I'm a woman, so i'm special?

Pure delusion, a delusion that's taught and a lie that's spread.

The culture is the issue.

Skimming through Superman '25 & the first thing that stood out is how tf are humans keeping up with Supes' combat speed on key inputs. No quantum computers etc.

they're not cyborgs, just humans playing a video game lol.

Reminded me of that Sovereign chase in GOTG2.

aside from the speed gripe, If Supes was holding back to appeal to the clone himself (which surprisingly wasn't exploited more) & thats why he allowed the beating- is one thing but after he needed doggo to save him---

where tf was all of this when bro was washing him!? lmfao:

if they wrote it that they used Brainiac/ Brother eyes processing speed as a medium to equalize the perception of time for the puppeteers, so that the combat speed is neutralized, fine.

picture it: a white belt who started yesterday knows all the moves of experienced UFC fighter who's been fighting for 16 years. Now consider how pointless it is to prepare 2500 moves against someone with superspeed lmfao. Still love that "1A!" popoff tho😂ONE A! ONE A! 1NE A!!!!

The "avatar" could only be as fast as their command relay transmissions, and that's AFTER Lex tells them what to do which is seconds spent. So their inputs keeping up at all was funky.

Lex yelling "1A"? command was hilarious, thats what gave away the realtime issue. So to be fair, even a cyborg (hax reflex or even if the nanomachines injected into someones brain) is not enough to keep up with nerf Superman via key inputs to remote control an organic drone.

Like Snyder, if they weren't playing on it so seriously at times, i would've wrote it off as a comic-ism like Donner & Lesters style.

Otherwise the hand to hand action for the most part looks ok, Gunn was smart to carry over his GOTG vol.3 action tilt chops.

WATCHMEN 1986 (recommended)

Watchmen 86' by Alan Moore, drawn by Dave Gibbons

The movie (despite some aesthetic improvements) did the point of the book no justice, but i'll give it credit for putting me on.

Hasan Just Responded In The Dumbest Way..

19:12 if "he didn't pay" comes out her mouth because you didn't treat her to the 12 yr old experience like you're her Father or if you hear or see if she said/ commented this--- you're babysitting a child. Cut her loose. Go date a woman instead.

Has Joe Rogan’s Stance On Atheism Started To Shift?

the universe doesn't abide by human standard, but how humans operate help solve the riddle that something didn't come from spontaneous cluster of uber-heated atoms but a design. Microorganisms, ecosystems are design. The universe, The Matrix is code. Code is programmed.

There's a phenomenon in women called "micro-chimerism" where the fetus/baby, particularly male children where during maturation & years after birth or even in a case of termination/assassination; the conception at all ie. the mother will regardless retain a level of her son's male DNA on a microscopic level, which helps with immune system boosts even against cancer, regeneration, etc. Tho more beneficial if she has the kid because it’s coursing in her system longer.

Literal Comic book shit, because she got pregnant.

That's not because of cosmic fart particles condensed into an explosion because chance, that's pure, non-debatable design. That’s a literal stat buff.

 The microorganisms in your body, including the one’s that could be classified as “animals” can tear you apart, eat holes in your organs, anatomical systematic failure. They work in harmony so that you live, including the demodex creatures that live in the pores on your face and roam about as you sleep every day.

None of that is chance, that’s intention, those little guys follow an instinct/ a directive assigned to them, it’s why they act as facial cleaning crews (eating excess oils & dead skin) instead of eating you alive as a baby. Because if it’s aimless primal compulsion, why would these microscopic titans coexist with monolithic inferiors? What is intelligence now if not derived from Intelligence then, is, or to be?

Balance isn’t accidental, or happenstance, or a gamble of probability. 

I’ve been game for years to accept that things just happen, it’s easier to believe that, makes you feel less powerless amongst space. 

But logically- it makes no sense that the number 4 came to be without 2+2. Or 2+2 came to be without 1 or the value of 0 coming before to precede it’s stats in the sequence. 

Science itself cannot sustain such a theory.

Think about The Sims 2 or the pocket-dimensions called phones and computers, how humans operate & create their own little worlds where they play god, that is  partly how we emulate the self-important quantum intelligence we labeled "God".

Religion as it’s perceived by the religious simply complicates it, and people’s aversion to religion & namely accountability complicates it further. But neither erases the reality of “code”.

The universe is a program, building-block: code, code is designed. Very simple.

OBSESSED EX WON'T STOP FOLLOWING ME | The Stalked

I thought the same thing, how this game is basically "the woman experience: the game", constantly on defense from various gazes.

But it ain't better for dudes when in that tense situation. What difference are hands gonna make when the opponent got a gun or jump you. The entire grip of this terror is you don't know what the person outside can do.

Fear is fear, trauma is trauma. Dudes ain't indestructible to paranoia, poor mental health, pain or a bullet. Women got nails, teeth, screams, fists, kicks, they not as strong but they ain't helpless. fym.

Teach a little girl how to grapple & how to box, if a woman learns how to do those. She straight for life.

The only difference between men & women in this scenario is women get sympathy. You wanna talk about reality? That's the real tragedy. If it's a dude stalked, no one would care. Women can be vulnerable & expect society to be receptive to their trauma, turn it into a cause, an ad, a movie, a video game, an organization vs indifference. And even if it's not an expectation, that's a more likely reaction than dismissal or mockery.

And the sad part is, that happens to women too, dismissal. So imagine what a guy gets: a ready bosom for his tears because he got followed home? Likely.

That's the main difference here, the fucks to give post-event.

But to circle back to women, this game captures that constant defense mechanism when just going anywhere, just being a woman makes a different kind of target to someone mook son acting a menace for no reason. The game captures that perfectly.

Like "can i just exist as a human being without being on the market as a pottential conquest, like what tf's wrong with you people lmfao"

Man Of Steel - Superman Vs General Zod Last Fight Reaction Mashup

Kent having to balance saving people & fighting Zod like in Superman 2 and Death of Superman 2018 (excellent Superman fight btw, go watch that movie), that would've been leagues better leading up to him killing Zod. It's not the execution of Zod, It's just the build up to it that was so sloppy. All those buildings fell, all those people,  & only now this one family matters?

  I've been in fights, when you're locked in  as an amateur, you don't pay attention as much to your environment, you get tunnel vision, so i get it, but this guy has super senses and common sense, all those buildings & not once is he looking around cognizant of whats happening? And there plenty of times the fight stopped after he got punched, no awareness, nothing.

  (The irony of zod's claim of training on a farm is Clark actually did not train, he practiced to fly, and Jor-El appointed him to test his limits but part of the issue with this "Superman" is he's actually unqualified emotionally and literally, cause Jor-El did a horrible job prepping him, 78 Jor-El basically made Clark into a NEET shut-in before he even got the suit, that training was so extensive it required a timeskip, Clark had to earn the suit. Same with Smallville.)

*Cavill's era was wasted on Snyder & Goyer, absolutely wasted and squandered.* Instead of people using him saving that soldier that fell out the copter as an excuse like "See? see? He saves people in a fight!", that same act should've been extended here.

Not him saving everyone successfully, but him saving some & failing others mid-fight (because he's still green & there's but so much he can do at this stage of his career) and then after that failure, after he sees and absorbs that loss then he does what needs to be done with heavy heart. But we the audience have to see him seeing this & getting that impact DURING the crisis, not at the end with some frigging scream.

Thats what Invincible got right, or like Superman in canon (Superman for Tomorrow when he couldn't stop an execution of civilians on foreign soil or he couldn't stop a foreign ethnic dispute, excellent story btw, recommended). That's why this doesn't work and his comic Doomsday fight does, both Death of Superman animated movies too, both good fights, WAAAAY better than this.

  Zack prioritized an uncut DragonBallZ fight with a post-nut regret scream over a Superman accurate narrative with a fight attached to it.  (And the fight isn't really that good honestly, Zimaut Animation could easily direct a better fight with just Flash animation software, go check their channel out btw, recommended) Like Superman vs Doomsday 2018, Supes didn't care if Doomsday was a living being or not, in fact, he didn't even check. In the end, he wanted him put down because if it wasn't done, Lois would die, and Earth would be donezo next, period. And Supes was a hair's breadth from passing out as well.

  It's not about him killing Zod (in Superman ii he killed Zod out of spite with a smile, tho that was a different context given it was basically like a kiddy cartoon with some emotional elements but it was still unnecessary on Supermans part) but here it's all about the execution because unlike Superman 2, this movie takes itself very very very seriously, which raises the bar for a stunt like this.

  The execution of all this was just as messy as Zacks Batman Bathroom scene idea. I get what he was going for, but like Horikoshi & Bayformers, Zack has the vision to make something look cool, but how these cats get the story to that fixed point just ends up a train wreck.
