What do you do in Superman 64:
Fly through rings. At least 50% of the 14 levels are rings!

I am not as experienced with DC movies, but I swear I have heard of three Wonder Woman movies that had this title.

I have watched quite a few of the DCEU films and the only decent one that I watched is the first Wonder Woman.

watch Shazam, BoP, and Aquaman...then of course The Suicide Squad when it comes out next year

Aquaman was pretty good.

And I did enjoy Man of Steel despite the mixed reception.

That moment when you realize Lego Batman was more faithful to the Batman we all know than DCEU Batman was.

For what it was, The Lego Movie was a goddamn masterpiece of product placement and genuine faithfulness to the source material. You would think a movie all about one of the biggest toy brands in the world would be soulless and garbage but they took the lego and made something amazing. The attention to detail is stellar too. The entire movie is creative with how it uses the product placement which in a ironic way makes perfect sense, considering Legos are all about the freedom of creativity(and this is even reinforcement with the plot)

Yes because that's what people know about Punisher, being merciful in situations

Do you mean like the crook he killed when first introduced?

Which doesn't even make sense. If this Batman kills? How is it that universes Joker is still alive by this point?

A lot of it's based on a misinterpretation of a scene from The Dark Knight Returns, where it looks like Batman killed someone when there was no other option. (the goon in question turns up later in the background, though I'm not sure how minor of a detail that is - I haven't read the Dark Knight Returns, since the art style isn't appealing to me)

Most of Batman's "killing" in the DCEU were either against Parademons (where it's questionable if they're fully alive/conscious - by my understanding, they're like giant insects or zombies) or in a dream sequence/vision of a post-apocalyptic future. (which doesn't count, since it's a nightmare of some sort) I think he killed some people with the Batmobile, but that seems to be an issue with using the Batmobile in live action from a general standpoint. He did the same sort of thing in the Burton movies, and even in Batman Begins and the Dark Knight Rises. (he definitely killed some people during the ending chase in the latter movie)

Some of the blows that he landed in the warehouse fight looked painful, and possibly fatal, but that's the case with a lot of portrayals of Batman - things like slamming into someone with the Batmobile, or breaking their arm and leaving them lying in the snow, or detonating explosive gel right beneath them could potentially be fatal.

That's the thing. His whole character is that he doesn't kill. And yet here he is. Parademons, ok understandable, as they aren't human. But there's no excuse on a whole load of people who definitely died during Batman V Superman.

Batman killing people, or intentionally letting them die, isn't something that's unique to Batman v. Superman.

nearly every superhero who has been in the game for some time has had some sort of connection to killing somebody (accidentally or not)

Why? They pretty much turned him into the Punisher, heck I'd call him BatPunisher if anything and only became bros with Superman because their mothers had the same name.

well the others said most of what was needed, but even recently Batman has nearly caused someone to die on purpose (being KGBeast when he shot him and was willing to let him bleed out to death, and when he decided to save Harley from blowing herself up over continuing to keep saving Joker)

15 Times Batman Has Killed People

Everyone knows that Batman has one line that he will never cross. He won't ever kill a person... well, except for these 15 times he did.

I know that. I never expect a company to act like a person. But like... I don’t know. Isn’t the strategy when people or organizations start behaving in this way to put a strangle hold on them and choke off their supply of blood money until they shrivel up and die? Isn’t that what we’re supposed to do? Isn’t that standard protocol?

Nintendo games sell so much that your $60 doesn't really matter. I don't see any issue in buying them

Gonna play some more Okami today.

It's also one week away until Season 2 of Hilda premieres. I'm gonna re-watch the first season again to get ready. I love that show, like Okami it's really breathtaking and anyone that has NetFlix I recommend it.

If we want Nintendo to change, they're gonna have to have another console failure so they have to cave into fan demands to keep it afloat.

The Switch isn't that.

TBH, the Wii U only really ended up the way it did 'cause of poor gimmick choices and terrible marketing. Not to mention low software output because they were still trying to keep their two console strategy going at the time with the 3DS.

Assuming they stick with the Switch format, I don't really see them flopping a console again anytime soon. :drshrug:
