Raziel it is

@Stocking Anarchy hows yours going?
 
Because it feels sincere and pays tribute to the campy feel of the 60s Batman tv show and comics whereas MCUslop feels like a manchild trying way too hard to put down the material they are working on from thinly veiled regret and shame for nerdy shit.
Remember when No Way Home tried to shit on the previous Spider-Man villains’ “mental health”
 
As the Brothers of Destruction, their chemistry was great enough to where you could definitely believe them being real-life brothers, even though they're not. Masterful story work and selling with those two. Not surprising though. Kane and Undertaker are top-tier, and some of the best to ever lace up a pair of boots. :mshad

Then there was Edge and Christian. Also posing as brothers in the ring. I miss the Brood. A lot of great stables are long retired now. The thrill really is gone.
 
You mentioning the Brood just makes me remember the Ministry of Darkness and pointy goateed Taker going out crucifying people. Shit was wild. :mjlol

Man the Ministry was hot shit back then. Not to mention when they joined with the McMahon Helmsley Faction. It was around that time I generally stopped watching WCW and plugged into WWF every show that I could.
 
Civil war, aou, dark world, though that's for me, sounds like you liked them.
I liked Civil War but have seen it is way weaker than I remember years later but I heavily agree with AOU and Dark World being dull and mediocre. Also never liked Ragnarök for shitting away one of the best arcs in Thor's history with shitty jokes and wasting away other characters while shoving in the obnoxious ones like Valkyrie and that gay rock dude. The rest like the first two Antman films, GOTG1 , Strange 1, Thor 1, Spiderman Homecoming, and Iron Man 2 and 3 are all just more on the okay to forgettable side.

EDIT Iron Man 1 is one of the best fucking Superhero movies period so that was not what I meant lol.

Taker was the main reason I watched WWE period, even as a wee lad. Didn't get to catch the Ministry gimmick live, but thankfully, my cousin had all the tapes from every raw with Taker on them, and I binge watched that shit, whilst watching his newer stuff at the time, like american badass leading up to his feud with bald, demented Kane where he returned to a revamped version of his old gimmick, and Randy Orton, back when he was the legend killer.

Also, not gonna lie, when Taker basically beat Cena in a squash match at Mania, I popped for that, as it was basically one of the best to ever do it(and my favorite wrestler of all time) taking out the trash, as far as I was concerned. :russ :hestonpls
 


By win/loss ratio

1) Torcoal
2) Totodile
3) Pidgeot
4) Gliscor
5) Boldore
6) Oshawott
7) Muk
8) Tauros
9) Gible

By Bad Type Coverage

1) Torcoal
2) Snivy
3) Torterra
4) Heracross
5) Gliscor
6) Boldore

Frankly I think this is a good showing of why you can't take win/loss ratio as any kind of acceptable metric for judging a Pokemon's strength or any other fictional character for that matter. Even a loss can still be impressive depending on how close it was, such as the case with Gible vs Darkrai.

Several of these Pokemon as well as others they discussed like Noivern and Sirfetched have no fucking business whatsoever even being in the discussion for some of Ash's worst Pokemon. I also think they were a little harsh on Torcoal (and Gible) as well given they literally showed the clip where that thing put up a good fight against a Regi.
