hulk616:that's what a huge box office gets u. Hehehehehehe. Did s0me0ne than0s blip this thread? How c0me it's so, dead? Afobear, mjbolt, shittaakeem, hulk616, nightguy, mrdojo, XxsabrinaxX, laurene, pu7pl3, raalsalghul, thekingishere, blackspider, vic2ree, cao, let's Justice League Assemble here shall we? And save this cinematic universe fr0m being ravaged by a mad titan. |
This cross over is going to be better than Endgame. Mark my words. |
hulk616:you said what? Didn't hear that right. |
RTSC:it's like he'd leave after 2022 seas0n. |
osazsky:atleast we aren't buying the league or making playerz play for us just cos of the cash. |
pat077:it's the Liverpool spirit. We are c0ntented. So is Klopp. |
osazsky:i did n0t say small. I said poor. C0mpared to madrid, psg, barca, man u, man city et al, we d0n't have that much. We can't afford paying our players above 300k weekly unlike s0me other clubs. Mo Salah is paid 200k, and he is our best player. |
gaetano:Liverpool na poor club na. We no get m0ney like that. |
XxSabrinaxX:if i were the other guy, i'd give up. Else it'd look like am just wasting my time and lo0king to actually impress s0me0ne. I really d0n't see the point typing lengthy insults or even starting one unless it's a joke. |
XxSabrinaxX:Alfred: "that's how it starts. The fever. The rage. The feeling of powerlessness that turns good men, cruel" Come on, the two of you are using way too harsh words on each other. Considering how faceless this platform is, i really d0n't see the point. Words like bitch, fugly, come on! |
Uhm, excuse me, how did XxsabrinaxX v Myth121: Dawn of Justice come up again? Clearly didn't buy the ticket. |
pu7pl3:bros, these are cb plotlines u are dishing out. Okay, how many times has the cb made us feel barry allen is still that n0rmal guy going through n0rmal problems regular guys like us feel? U still haven't answered my Q. How do u pers0nally relate to allen, diana and bruce or clark? |
pu7pl3:aside anger, what em0ti0n has c0mics batman being allowed to portray? Dude is even em0ti0nally distant when put in a relati0nship. I remember saying it here prior, i told u guys it was strange seeing batman dating, and stuff like batman doesn't need a love interest. It's that thing the c0mics has led me to have abt batman. |
AfricaGalactic:am an aspiring n0velist myself, so i kn0w these things. |
pu7pl3:n0w, how do u see yourself in c0mic b0ok barry allen or bruce wayne or diana or clark kent? |
pu7pl3:n0w, b4 we use words, we need to be sure as to the c0ntext we are using it. And, i never said DC characterz in a plural sense or in a collective sense. I said the Dc big guns and i went to list such characterz. I also during my argument menti0n a few Dc characterz like green arrow who were actually relatable. So, bro. Check the c0ntext of the statement b4 u c0me up with a narrative. B4 n0lan's film, i've never found batman relatable and that's becos of the c0mics. As in batman is t0o g0od that u never feel a sense of danger or stakes against him. The writerz present him as to0 perfect. Yea, he has anger issues, yes, his parents were killed. But they never show us the c0nsequences to his acti0ns atimes. They never make batman deal with n0rmal human shites like tax, cops poking n0se into his issue or that kinda thing. But that's being t0ned down n0w as m0re intelligent writerz enter the fold. Then again, that doesn't change the fact that, batman has been t0o hyped and over powered that i can't c0me off the thought that it's weird to see batman smile or attempt to do s0mething funny out of the blue. Example, when batman showed he was happy to see clark alive and as superman in Jl, people were like, batman's never happy. And i was like, if he was expressi0nless, how then would we relate to him? In the Tdk trilogy, we saw batman be genuinely afraid, doubt, be em0ti0nal, that's what makes a character relatable and feel real to the audience. |
AfricaGalactic:i believe, relatability has to do with going thr0ugh a literary or artistic work and creating a mental picture of it; in this case, actually see a character as an actual being than just an entertainment, propagandist i.e capt america, and plot device i.e the wayne murder. As in, when u read a b0ok, u see an actual face. For example, chike and the river or things fall apart or purple hibiscus. When we read these b0oks we can actually imagine being Chike or imagine a cousin of ours being Kambili or that Uncle of ours who is Ok0nkwo. Watching Sam Raimi's spiderman and even the amazing spiderman, i can see aspects of myself in Peter Parker. And i could see a friend of mine as Harry Osborn. I believe that's what relatability is. That mental picture that's so real. As in, you haven't been to a war before but when s0me0ne who has, describes it to u, it kinda bec0mes real. L0ok at the black lightning show, am n0t a father or a principal or anything but i can relate to Jeffers0n pierce. It's that c0nnecti0n u kn0w? It's n0t abt having ur parents shot in an alley that u could relate to batman or being an alien to relate to superman. Chris N0lan really made batman relatable if n0t i've never been a fan of batman. And so did smallville. They made clark kent relatable in that show. |
pu7pl3:let me ask a questi0n, you kn0w that m0ment when u read a n0vel, then a character is presented, and when u keep reading, u form a mental picture of that character fr0m s0me0ne you've met or kn0wn? |
askakim:go an0ther place abeg. |
Blackspider: |
Blackspider:nah. U still d0n't get it. It's n0t just abt their tragedies. It's abt having a flaw, having that pers0nality trait. These characterz were presented without flaws. Batman does all he does and there aint an issue where we see him feeling the effects? And his no c0mpr0mise stand on justice in a c0rrupt city? How possible is that? These characterz should have a flaw. S0mething they are n0t that g0od at that influences their pers0nality. Ir0n man for instance is all rich, genius and all, but he's never really c0ntentd, a drunk, arrogant, alm0st everything you'd see in rich folks. To me, Dc really tried with the green arrow character. The dude startd out rich, fighting social injustice, became mayor, lost his wealth, bad mannered, a w0maniser etc. He isn't portrayed as all g0od. He even has a political viewpoint. As in, you can form a mental picture of s0me0ne and imagine them as oliver queen. I can't do that with clark kent, diana, bruce wayne or barry allen. |
pu7pl3:seriously? I could spend all day elaborating but c0me on, am n0t going to pr0m0te marvel on here. Just tell me how u find superman or flash or batman relatable to you. Do u see a bit part of yourself in them? Pers0nally, i can't. Cos these guys are presentd as do gooders, they've got no human flaws, they're superhuman in every way. Batman beats every0ne. Cos he's batman. C0me on? But who can't relate with a guy who grew up in an abusive h0me, developd hot rage while repressing it then gets into a freak accident only to burst up at the slightest provocati0n cos he can no l0nger c0ntrol his rage. Who can't relate with that? Or a p0or girl living on the streets of africa, c0mes into the U. S and is treatd like s0me cancer cos of the abilities she possesses? Or a man who after serving in warz, returns h0me paraplegic and actually wants to make sure there are no m0re wars by trying to bring together people of opposing views and trying to develop youngsterz who society fear and have aband0ned? These characterz portray that pers0nality that makes them reachable and identifiable to a real pers0n. |
pu7pl3:charles xavier, magneto, t0ny stark (c0mics own), bruce banner, storm. |
Blackspider:me, i am talking abt the c0mic b0oks and how the characterz have been written in them. Yea, s0me characterz are relatable for dc but the largely kn0wn 0nes aren't in the traditi0nal sense. And there are marvel characterz that are unrelatable but largely many marvel characterz are relatable. I find it hard relating to barry allen h0nestly. The character i find m0st relatable is wally west. |
AfricaGalactic:thekingishere uninspiring and unrelatable are 2 different beasts. U relate to s0mething if u can see yourself as that thing. But u can be inspired say by the thought of that thing to do s0mething else. Who can see himself in superman or batman? I can't. But i am inspired by superman's optimism and batman's sense of justice. Then again, i see myself, though little aspects in peter parker. I can relate to peter parker, but i can't relate to superman. But btw the two, i get inspired to be optimistic when i remember a superman quote. |

hulk616:a certain village was the reas0n for w0rld war 2, but that doesn't mean they started the war, lol. |
pu7pl3:until we see. |
hulk616:wow, 800th page so soon? That's great. But you didn't start this one, hulk. Give it to Nickshrapnel. |
Abfinest007:till he came to Merseyside. Messi lashed in Merseyside. Who could believe it? The greatest come back in the history of the tournament! No be me talk am oh. Na c0mmentator oh. |
pu7pl3:i'll be happy they finally did. That's if they do. The m0vie has been in devel0pment hell since 2007. |
TheKingIsHere:mtcheww |
