I'm not tired to superheroes per say, but I am tried of people using superheroes as a medium to tell any and every story.
I'd rather the stories superheroes appear in to be as ridiculous as the men/women with super powers who wear their underwear over top their costumes. Anyone trying to do "but what if supers were REAL in the REAL world" misses the mark every time when it comes to actually telling an entertaining story.
I'm tired of deconstructions of the superhero genre I swear to God if I see some other shit be like "killing villain good", "absolute power corrupts absolutely", or "wow silly comic trope is silly" I'mma put a bullet through my head
In comics?
Not really. Recently I have been reading old stuff from before my time and various runs I have missed out on and throughly enjoying a lot of it. Most modern cape comics are stagnant and awful though.
In movies?
Fricking absolutely. It is all so bland and mainstream audience friendly that I can't get invested. The magic of just seeing an IP I am interested in on the big screen wore of years ago.
I have not seen a single MCU Film.
Not Iron Man
Not Thor
Not Captain America
Not the avengers
Or any other film since it began with Iron Man. I think the last comic film I saw was Batman: the dark knight in theaters.
Sometimes I wonder if I missed out. The only one that genuinely made me go "Oh cool, I should check it out" was the first captain America
Also haven't seen any of the non MCU marvel films "X-men post 00's trilogy, deadpool, spider-man, etc" Last Marvel film I saw was probably 05 fantastic four.
>After two decades and BILLIONS of dollars expended by hollywood, the Incredibles is still the best superhero movie ever made and it's not even close
I will never not find this hilarious. No established characters, no origin stories, no set pieces with a budget that could fund a third world military and the actual main conflict of the film is a mid-life crisis versus a marriage.
>The Godfather >2001 >e-girlta >Gone with the Wind >It's a Wonderful Life >Blade Runner >Casablanca >The Maltese Falcon >12 Angry Men >Death of a Salesman >The Bridge on the River Kwai >Lawrence of Arabia >Psycho >Doctor Zhivago
That argument doesn't hold much water.

That's dumb.
You're dumb.
The incredible is overhyped trash with a deeply moronic and quite frankly insultingly immoral moral.
It's just not as good as you people with to pretend it is
I was disappointed in Zhivago. After a certain point it winnows down to being about two incredibly selfish people they expect us to agree with and feel sorry for.
Do you think people said the same thing about westerns? There is a pathetic contingent of creatures that only "enjoy" things when they're scarce, they can't just shut the frick up and let it die on it's own either.
I've never read this before, but I'm very appreciative of the artists underlining. Very clean, very impressive. Nice lettering. I look forward to reading more of this.
Frick capeshit.
I've seen every movie, ABC series, Netflix series & short (only things I didn't watch were Inhumans, Item 47 & Agents of SHIELD seasons 6 & 7, when the series had stopped being Marvel related). The MCU genuinely did capture my imagination, since the shared movie universe was a really cool concept, at the time. It even inspired things in my own setting & worldbuilding in general.
The Phase 4 movies do nothing for me, though. Lately, going through the movies feels like I am catching up on homework. The shows are alright, but I am starting to get fatigued by those, too. Moon Knight was more generic than I wanted (though I knew they wouldn't leave their comfort zone), & I haven't even started Ms Marvel. Just not interested, especially since it's an origin story, which I really hate at this point, since they'll all the same.
One thing I don't like about Rippaverse: it's just superheroes again, the most overused done-to-death genre in all of comicdom. If I started my own comic company, I'd stay the hell away from superheroes and work with other genres. If people are really craving something new, then why not give them something ACTUALLY new, instead of just rehashing the old for the millionth time?
Not personally since I don't follow most of it, but I do agree that there's too much capeshit around now
Don't care about capeshit. Post more Werewolf Jones.
This one in particular seems to be getting a lot of mileage
I miss Crisis Zone. It was the best thing to come out of 2020.
I found that I couldn’t reread it, but I read it every day when it was coming out. I’ve kinda lost interest in his work since.
Are superhero films more or less copious than the gun twirling action films of the 80's?
No they're just saturday morning cartoons
In raw numbers?
No.
In how much they get jerked off?
You bet your ass.

why did the furry had an orgy with scott pilgrim,justice league and the avengers in the first place if he hates getting his dick sore?
no that's why I'm on a comic books board
>Anyone else tired of capeshit?
>makes a thread complaining about it
>troony mogg n owl complaining about successful comics
lmao
you love to see it
Huh?
But I don't see anything about manga in that image.

that's a deconstruction?

Im tired of normal ones, I want a couple more of supermans but evil adapted

i have like 3 cape comics in my pull list and the rest of what i read is random indie shit.
there are so many friggin comics coming out every week outside of marvel and dc if all you got is capes then that's on you!!!!!!!!!!!

>an original story is better than tons of adaptations
what a shocker
Many acclaimed films are adaptions.
Superhero movies just suck.
I meant in regards to superhero comics
>The Godfather
>2001
>e-girlta
>Gone with the Wind
>It's a Wonderful Life
>Blade Runner
>Casablanca
>The Maltese Falcon
>12 Angry Men
>Death of a Salesman
>The Bridge on the River Kwai
>Lawrence of Arabia
>Psycho
>Doctor Zhivago
That argument doesn't hold much water.
What, exactly, do you think is better?
I was disappointed in Zhivago. After a certain point it winnows down to being about two incredibly selfish people they expect us to agree with and feel sorry for.

You can both be right.

I am tired of Marvel and DC and thinly veiled parodies of Marvel and DC

I should reread Truth Zone
Yes.
I've seen every movie, ABC series, Netflix series & short (only things I didn't watch were Inhumans, Item 47 & Agents of SHIELD seasons 6 & 7, when the series had stopped being Marvel related).

I watched like 5 capeshit movies in the last 10 years and it's still too much
Buddy I've been sick of these israeli power fantasies since 1939 when Superisraelite came out

Cinemaphile has always been a capeshit board my sweet summer child.
