@MichaelFKane I personally love a legacy sequel where the character is a washed up loser and has to relearn what it means to be a hero. That being said I also love a legacy sequel where the hero comes out swinging, never missing a beat. I'm a simple man to please

@GuyWhoRemains @captaincupkick @Browntable_Ent Honestly, Secret Invasion is the only show I flat out have no interest in rewatching. Echo also wasn't great but at least Kingpin saved it a bit. All the other shows (yes even She-Hulk) are at least some level of good imo

@Bubola I remind myself each year that I'm more likely to win the Powerball jackpot ... twice ... than pick a perfect bracket.

This is what I've learned from filling out a bracket for the first time ever: 1. FUCK 2. If you fill out your bracket based on what you honestly think will happen based on what you know about ball and statistics and data and general vibes, but then you remember that MM is full of counter-intuitive upsets so you randomly edit in some strategic upsets... You will still fail miserably. That is what I have learned.

Chuck Norris jokes are pretty fascinating bc they started as a way of making fun of him (the same way you'd make fun of a Steven Seagal movie where he's an invincible badass with no flaws) but over time it just became "this guy is genuinely badass" bc no one watched his movies

The Oscars, which mocked Turning Point USA’s Super Bowl halftime show, got lower ratings than the TPUSA halftime show. TPUSA’s Halftime Show got 25 million household views. The Oscars got 17.9 million views. The American people are done being lectured by out-of-touch elites.

In case you're not getting it yet: Hollywood is systematically removing both the SUPER and the HERO from the superhero genre. The subtitle of the next Spider-Man movie, “Brand New Day,” is code for “we’re no longer making real superhero movies the way you like.” Superman (James Gunn's version): a conflicted, alienated immigrant struggling with identity politics. Peacemaker: a crude, broken man-child whose "heroism" is mostly drugs, orgies, and daddy issues. Hollywood is systematically removing both the SUPER and the HERO from the superhero genre. Wonder Man: Simon Williams, once the WHITE son of a rich industrialist, now a Haitian-American actor dealing with family trauma and cultural identity crises. Black Captain America: super-empowered to save the country but still crying about racial inequality. Ironheart: Riri Williams is a genius inventor but still has to steal and is burdened by ILLUSIONS of systemic racism and personal grief. Daredevil: now a depressed, guilt-ridden lawyer whose arc drowns in moral ambiguity, depression, while being overshadowed by diverse sidekicks lecturing him on privilege and anger. Lanterns — Hal Jordan and John Stewart reduced to substitute teachers and grunt cops investigating a murder in the American heartland, while a female detective disrespects them and the black Lantern lectures the white one on doing the job better. And now comes FAILED Spider-man: bungling, constantly falling and crashing into things, getting hit by a van…the list goes on. These aren’t the heroes we want to see. They’re "humanized" (read: weakened) versions designed to make today's modern (read: lowbrow) audience feel better about themselves. The men are sad, angry, depressed, unfulfilled, incompetent, or outright toxic. The women are corrupt, masculine, infallible girlbosses who outfight, outthink, and out-lead every man in the room. They no longer live in their own specialized, larger-than-life worlds where they thrive as gods among mortals. They live in OUR angry, gritty, mundane world where they FAIL, struggle, and get knocked down to our level. No more soaring capes, no more unapologetic power, no more aspirational icons. Just unrelatable losers with OCCASIONAL super-powers who mirror our own mediocrity and resentment. Hollywood isn't dying. It's killing itself.

@Mine_Ggamer @Swich_22 I think it was a great marketing decision in today's works where the algorithm determines everything. This morning, all I'm seeing is Spider-Man content now. Now it wasn't a great decision in the sense of they should repeat it, but it was definitely a genius gamble

@Swich_22 to be fair it was a dumbass marketing decision releasing 1 second long clips which will be, rightfully, nitpicked because of how dry this build up was

@Ezurient @waronweakness I think all of them were bangers other than Mother which I find at least interesting. Baby Driver is in my personal top 5 all time

@FlamesAdvocate @waronweakness All of those 2017 picks were mediocre at best minus Blade Runner, we really have to appreciate Villeneuve more.

In 2007 I watched the following movies in the cinema > There Will be Blood > No Country for Old Men > Zodiac > Eastern Promises I thought to myself "that was a decent year. Next year will only get better and the year after that and so on because Hollywood always makes good movies". I was wrong. We take things for granted. Appreciate everything you have now and in the moment whether that's a Sunday breakfast with your kids or a new movie because one day you won't have it.

@tommy_stella Set it in the same universe and the main overarching plot point is trying to get more customers because nobody trusts them this time

Auburn is a 1 seed in the NIT. They will battle South Alabama in the first round in Neville Arena. Was accepting the NIT bid the right move?

@kabrieltwt Golden can actually be played on its own, I Lied To You can't be played outside of the movie. Comparing them as individual songs, Golden is the stronger song

This is the one that pisses me off the most. "I Lied to You" explored the lineage or Black American and African music, and the history of Western religion as an imperial tool against Black people flawlessly, just to lose to a basic pop ballad about being awesome or something.

I am taking a break from Twitter. Every time I hop on I find myself, as a grown man, getting into stupid arguments over things that don't matter. When I return, I will bring this account back to what it started as: a Liberty Flames Sports Account. I'll likely be back for March Madness since Bball has been on fire recently and I'll also continue to advocate for my @UFLStallions
