Actually, this is a common problem with a LOT of modern shows and movies in the last 20 years or so.

There is no sense of danger for the main character and his allies. They are way too op and can do anything as the villains despite being... 1/9 ...at this longer and being stronger are turn into a bunch of one note morons that makes you wonder "HOW THE HELL DID THEY GET POWER TO BEGIN WITH!?"

It's one of the reasons why I hate shows like the Owl House and its boring ass villains, Belos has been at this for decades...2/9

First of, the big difference is that Ben Grimm is Kirby's creation. The argument is about how new and terrible "creatives/writers" add their malfunctions and ideologies to characters they didn't create.

Second... Jack Kirby is a real-life badass who's seen hell and came back. The man has actual life experiences and has been through danger hell and was not a douchbag soy boy who the worst thing that ever happened to him was getting a splinter on his finger or having someone call him the wrong set of pronouns.

No, Jack Kirby was a real one.

I've been having some conversations with some old timers... and I've realized something.

It's all happened before... all of it in one way or another.

In the 1960s, hippies were everywhere. Being a hippy was glorified in films, TV, fashion, and music and so on.

You had real hippies and people who pretended to be hippies. As time went on, and reality set in that utopia was not going to happen overnight, hippies got jobs, cut their hair, and gave up their bell bottoms and weed. Many became hippies in the 1980s but still gave up forward.

I'm so freakin tired of every culture or history... even fictional ones... having to all Resemble California.

For Christ sake... it's good that different cultures look different in both clothing an specific ethnicity, it's what set them apart and makes it easy to identify. Image And I'm so freakin' tired of them saying that "Because there's magic it would make sense."

No, it fuckin doesn't, even in the HTTYD world, the dragons can fly great distances, yes... but not from continent to continent.

Honestly I don't get why the Simpsons constantly tries to keep up with the times because Honestly it has created a lot of episodes that haven't aged well, they should have kept it in a 90s like world and brought in Parodies of the modern stuff but for that era and world. Image For example in my fictional world it has a 60s Retro-future astethics. And they have a thing similar to stream and podcasts... but instead of IPhones and YouTubes.

Most use a pirate radio and TV system to communicate with the audience and sell their products. Image

I'm talking world AESTHETICS, style and tech... I'm not talking cultural and historical.

I'm saying make your own version f earth built it with your view... mine would have a 60s to 80s vibe like the incridibles did with emphasis on the silver to semi-Bronze age of comics... While also having the world evolved different technology and culture wise because it's a world with God-like beings, magic and aliens around as common knowledge...

It would have cars, clothing, and slang from the era... but also be clear that it's not the age...

Honestly the whole Miles Morales train IA ridiculous... Miles only works if Peter is dead and the other Spiders around... which corporate will never do because Miles isn't really more of a seller then any of them... that's why he always gets new #1s . No, he's not the best. Sigh. Honestly... it's either Miguel...

🧵 Thread time...

Why Terry McGinnis succeeded where Miles Morales constantly and repeatedly fails over and over again none stop. ImageImageImage Okay, here's some history, when Batman Beyond was gonna come out many were pissed at the fact that a teenager was gonna replace Bruce, because most thought it would be horrible, since most teen shows tend to be, but... a miracle happened. It was good.

A total of 10 outa 10 king. Image

Yeah, modern comics have lost all sense of beauty because instead pf hiring artists with such...

They hire activists that think everything should look like the dispersing California made Blob that they are.

They have no idea who their audience are, like Shonen is made for... Image Teenage boys, and they know exactly what they're doing there in the art department because it has to be something that attracts the hormonal younglings to come back and buy more and more with stories that boost their confidence and give them hope while showing sexy ladies...

Agreed, I prefer effective, terrifying and serious villains that actually manage to succeed in the story, because not only they are a clear threat, they give better light on the hero when they actually manage to win.

That's why villains like Soundwave and Xanatos are so... ImageImage Perfect and iconic.

They don't joke around, they are pure threats that scream "If the hero messes up just once around them they will die." plus they don't really lose, they only win with certain inconveniences that most of the time they let slid because it's so insignificant.

So.... they're depicting the kingdom of Dahomey as Heroic African defending nation... Dahomey... one of the kingdoms built on conquest of other close lands, slave labor, and above All PEACEFUL TRADE WITH THE EUROPEANS BY SELLING AFRICAN SLAVES! 🤣🤦‍♂️

For fuck sake Hollywood...🤦‍♂️

There is a line... this is not historically accurate at all... Jesus Christ. This is worst then what I thought it would.

This is why I don't trust Hollywood to touch African culture.🤦‍♂️
