I meant as a post, not a comment, but nice.

But that doesn't mean everything goes in the memes community. For example, uploading a mere T-shirt would be met with primarily downvotes.

Aww, I was hoping it was a replica. That would have been really funny.

T = 40 ∀ P > 0

The best way to stop a bad guy with a lockpick is a good guy with a lockpick.

I feel like I'm missing something. What's the myth and what's the reality?

I'd agree with you, but I've seen Morbius up there.

They stayed out of the conflict, so we named that flu after them.

t's not, but apprecate the attenton to edge cases.

Why should pickles have to do it? The fudge is just as capable of getting itself out.

A housecat can kill a level 1 commoner, you know.

Glad you got the joke, ll.

If they can downscale enough, they should be able to pass this test.

Oh hey I think I'm in this picture.

Thanks, Bidem.

Yeah, I learned that too. I had come up with a villain later on who had a very defense/counterattack focused stationary fighting style combined with sundering armor, and I thought I could make him a big threat, but then he ended up completely flopping because there just wasn't support for building that style and making it strong. Now I'm playing looser, and stealing lair actions from D&D (minus the lair part most of the time) to make my loner villains work.

It's probably counting things like the X-Men movies, Spider-Man movies, Blade, Fantastic Four, etc.. Things that might be/get tied into the MCU, but aren't really a part of it.

As for the DCAMU, yeah, it's more adult. Some of the movies were too adult for me - one of the things I am picky about. It's the reason I don't like the Suicide Squad (I really like the concept, but the crude humor isn't for me.) The movies are also edgier than the MCU, but I can't say whether they're edgier than the live action DCEU; I haven't watched most of them, but I know they tend to be darker to a fault.

Thanks, your words make me happy, even if it is just on the topic of recommending superhero movies.

I wouldn't take my recommendation at face value if you're picky, because I do like the vast majority of superhero movies I've seen, including almost all of the MCU. I'm very much not picky, but I do feel like the DCAMU is one of the most epic superhero movie sagas out there.

Also, the MCU is only at 33 films, which is still a lot.

Yeah, I understand that. The DCAMU is one 16-movie universe, so no reboots to worry about, but if you do want to watch it, skip the Flashpoint Paradox. That movie is very much all over the place, especially for the "first" movie in the series. It's technically not part of the universe, but it's the origin story of the universe. I would highly recommend just reading a synopsis and skipping to the second movie, which is the origin story for the Justice League in that universe.

Also, animated DC and live action DC are worlds apart. The animated movies and shows have consistently been far better (with one exception being the Flashpoint Paradox. I honestly think the live action version of that was better.)

I would compare the DCAMU to the MCU (maybe just up through Endgame.) A key difference is that the MCU is convergent (they spin up new storylines and tie them into the main thread) and the DCAMU is divergent (they create spinoffs and loop them back in later.) A lot of MCU wannabes try and fail by going with the divergent model, but the DCAMU pulls it off pretty well in my opinion.

I think the difference is being transparent about it. This is saying "I know that shouldn't hit, but I'm saying it hits anyways." Traditional fudging is "That... hits, yeah, totally."
