A rare Homelander win

I’m so used to Dollar Store Superman getting wrecked all the time, that this truly feels like an anomaly to see

Especially since John as the dishonor of having a Death Battle with Omni-Man that was so embarrassingly one-sided, even the animation didn’t bother with making it look like it was anything other than Nolan bullying the poor wannabe.

Smash community banned a player named Hax for nearly a decade all while smearing him during that time. A few months back the dude tried to take his own life by jumping in front of a train and lost his leg, and just now he actually did it.

Sadly it doesn't mean much for Disney. They can keep making Marvel and Star Wars slop on Disney+ and make up all those losses.

No they can't, Cap 4 just bombed and Star Wars has been irrelevant for years. ROS disappointed and may have not even made its money back, hence why there has been no new SW for years and the only one coming out finally is just the Mandalorian film, which will likely do nothing to revitalize it. Outside of Deadpool and Wolverine, Spiderman No Way Home, none of MCU's films have been profitable compared to their budgets.

I saw a trailer for that film and just assumed it was the typical light hearted comedy that focused more on humor and stupid jokes over how awful it was living in Nazi Germany during the later war years.

Not really my perspective, doubly so when its often the unspoken judgment of many that sack these comparatively more fragile fictional characters?

"I could and would do better, I would respond differently, that's why I'm judging their behavior"

I'm going to compare them to real life, because the comparison to real life is already implied by their message. I have no patience for that kind of voice, ergo my point of view.

Nobody matches up to 90% of fictional characters in real life. Never a good metric to use, imo. It's like saying you can't criticize a writer, if you've never written a book before. It is retarded of them to use themselves as the metric, though. Like I said.

An addendum:

However, I am of the mind that realism has no place in fiction. Which is part of the reason why I don't like it. The best part of fiction, that which makes it unique next to non-fiction, is the ability to put on paper the romanticized ideas of humanity. The ideals that are unachievable normally, because they set an example for us to aspire for.

Superman, most prominently, embodies this frame of thought underneath any writer who knows Superman.

The world is already miserable. Why not show us a way towards the sun, and not to subvert it by giving us wax wings that melt as we approach the divine, but by elevating us to something greater. By glorifying our imperfections into something more. That they may usurp the flawless (read: absolute certainty) through monstrous effort.
