abduleez1:the problem is the wokeness these days seem to be the central focus rather than good characters or plot... Not only that, they're changing beloved characters...no one wants to read their beloved characters coming out as gay or trans or that shii without any substance or plot But yes like you said ...that isn't the only problem... The fact is comic books are so repititive these days... especially the superhero genre with low quality stories... Also it's very hard for new readers to come in cos of how confusing the entire thing is But guess what? If you wanna read One Piece...just go to chapter 1...same author, same idea all through 1 Like |

Baddestguyp: You sure say you dey read comics so. Lol. Which beloved characters are they changing to queer ones? Jon Kent is not the same as Clark Kent. Black Batman being gay isn't the same as Bruce Wayne. Wonder Woman has been gay and feminist since the 40s. Alan Scott been gay since the 70/80s. I can go on and on with Harley, Ivy, Catwoman, Batwoman, Supergirl and the likes. The difference is now the authors just spell it out that "hey there, do you know he/she/they are gay". Unlike before that it's implied and in your discretion to interprete it yourself. The ubiquitousness of superhero comics is what have made them breakout to mainstream media and currently dominating Hollywood executive decisions. making varieties of comics with different target audience, authors, colourist, artists and storyline has been what has propelled the genre to the heights it's currently enjoying. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Baddestguyp:Have you even read any Shoujo or Josei titles? How'd you know they're not "preachy" then? If you're not the intended demographic, then how do you know whether their needs are met or not? 1 Like |

Baddestguyp:How do you say this and expect to be taken seriously? You just basically admitted to having no personal knowledge about the content you're arguing about. You're just pushing someone else's narrative. 1 Like |

Just as some people predicted. Guess this is the reason he has been acting a lot recently.

Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by abduleez1(m): 6:38pm On Mar 30, 2022 |
Baddestguyp: Nope. They're different characters. Alternate characters are quite different from the mentioned characters. The characterization, the portrayal, the ideals, the drive, race? and other stuffs makes them different. You can't say Batman is the same as Nightwing or Batgirl (Cassandra Cain). You can't say superman is same as Superboy. Alternate versions of same characters are Supergirl and Powergirl. Batman and Nite Owl. Superman and Ultraman, Kingdom Come, Injustice etc. It's just like saying Moonknight is an alternate version of Batman. 1 Like |

Kaycee7:Shoujo are basically like romance novels...I don't read them but I'm pretty sure they aren't preachy cos I know girls who do *Edited I'm 100% sure you also don't read shoujo |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Baddestguyp(m): 6:56pm On Mar 30, 2022 |
Kaycee7:I lost interest in them many years ago...yes... But doesn't mean I don't read or watch videos or articles or comments about these things...I know gge present state of them |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Kaycee7(m): 7:27pm On Mar 30, 2022 |
Baddestguyp:I'm 257, 963% sure you have absolutely no idea what Shoujo means if you think they're "basically like romance novels". If I know some girls who don't think the comics you think are preachy aren't preachy, does that mean they really aren't preachy? So who determines what's preachy and what's not, then? Also, you've been seeing my posts on the anime thread for a while and you're really going to entertain the idea that I don't read/watch Shoujo? C'mon bro |

Kaycee7:isn't shoujo targeted at teenage girls? |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Baddestguyp(m): 7:47pm On Mar 30, 2022 |
Kaycee7:I'm not denying that I don't have first hand knowledge of the present state of the comic industry... Tbh it's not worth my time... If I rarely read manga, then no way I'd waste my time on comics.... So all my knowledge about present state of comic books come from internet posts, forums, and also real life friends who still manage to follow them |

It is like Hollywood has run out of ideas for new movies. Original movies I mean. Nowadays all they mostly do is recycle stories from 20-30 years back. Still surprised they haven't done a new version of the godfather 1 Like |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Nickshrapnel: 8:56pm On Mar 30, 2022 |
Chibudollar:Try again. It looks pretty straight forward. Chibudollar:Paramount has the right to the movie now, expect a new Godfather movie in 10years time |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Kaycee7(m): 9:01pm On Mar 30, 2022 |
Baddestguyp:There's no way to prove it because there's nothing to prove. Simply a narrative that bloggers/vloggers have milked for views because it panders to an audience. You have as much proof as someone trying to prove that anime is all about screaming boys and naked girls. |

Chibudollar: The fvvk. One of the best if not the Best movie I've ever watched to be produced by Netflix. It was the movie that made me start taking Netflix seriously. It's also the best Noomi Rapacw movie for me. Funny enough na that movie I finally learn to memorize Willem Dafoe name and face for head. |
