Hmm, what's something I really like that gets shit on all the time? Open-world games with question marks all over the map is a big one. I like checking off points of interest, but it's reviled by many, and I can understand why. I also hate Soulslike games even though they seem to be super popular.

I just wanna talk theories but everyone wants to shit all over Marvel :(

Yeah, like where did all the fun go with discussing marvel? Did it die with endgame?

I want to conjecture with people about where they are going to go with their current phase. Who will be the new front runner character?

While I enjoy Tom Holland, I don’t believe he can fill the charisma vacuum left by Downey.

How are the x-men going to be brought into the fold?

Fun fact: I’m much more of DC fan, but marvel captured a generation and they have the spotlight for now.

I’m really hoping DC takes a more mature darker route like The Boys, but without just remaking Injustice as R movie.

Give me dark brutal Batman, make Thanos look like child’s play next to DarkSeid. Supes needs a movie centered around a problem he can’t just punch away

I just got to say, seeing Batffleck brutalizing criminals was something I didn't know I wanted to see and was a breath of fresh air even if the movie wasn't great. I do think DC should embrace darker movies but with Gun at the helm, I'm hoping he goes less campy than with Peacemaker or GotG.

Yea I don’t like friendly neighborhood crime watch Batman, I want a Batman that cripples and beats the fuck out of crime as a deterrent

"No one should have to meet their hero.", and even less so: fellow fans.

Firefly. Only because I've never met anyone that wasn't someone I had to introduce to it. Let alone the comics, novels, board/card games, etc.

But for real, if I ever got anyone enough of a base around me becoming such fans as I; I would also happen to have enough of the old school Mage:tAs books to equate Technocracy with the Alliance and equate the Trads to Pirates.

I used to be active on /r/mma which was actually a decent sub with good moderation, but there was also /r/ufc which was just awful.

A place for teenagers to post dogshit takes and say shit like “I can’t wait to see X fighter get knocked out”. They treat it like WWE, wanting it to be a dramatic story and not the competitive sport that it is.

Oh ffs. For me it was the 40K fans. The grand majority is completely fine. But there are still these mouth breathing, bitter, gatekeeping neckbeards who loose their mind the moment something goes against…well they loose their mind all the time. No real reason to it. At least the mods tried to contain the worst offenders. Who would have thought a setting filled with hate and xenophobia attracts hate filled racists?

Aren't you afraid you enjoy it for the wrong reasons?
