Kal is who he is because of his moral, midwestern upbringing. In every iteration he's a good person because he was raised to be altruistic, not to take advantage of those weaker than him and to HELP those who cant help themselves. Arguably, this character? The ZS version? ISNT SUPERMAN...

Pretty sure that Matt Mercer STARTED his campaign using Pathfinder 1e (hence Percy being a gunslinger which at the time had no equivalent in 5e as well as the mention of some Golarion based deities early on in the recorded games) and switched over to 5e for ease of use for his players.

Okay.

Yeah this is what I was talking about upthread. It sounds like a lot of the outrage came from people who were not actually reading the book or the story that led up to that particular twist. It was just like "Oh Cap is a Nazi now!!! The writers said it's totally real!!!" What is the writer...

I'm not a big Frank Castle fan. I will agree that I like some of his appearances in Daredevil, specifically when he shows up early in Brubaker's Daredevil run. He gets himself thrown into Rikers when he sees that Matt, the Kingpin AND Bullseye are all there at the same time. Frank realizes that...

Hell at the end of BATMAN BEGINS there's the stupidity of what he does to Ras Al Ghul. He leaves him incapacitated and beaten on the runaway train. "I'm not going to kill you, but I'm not going to save you" ?!? By actively NOT saving him, YOU ARE killing him. All sorts of mental gymnastics...

Yes. and I've NEVER understood the outrage behind this from comic fans. As someone who was actually reading the Cap book at the time as well as the book where he gets his youth and super serum back (Avengers: Standoff) there was no way that a longtime reader of Captain America didn't know that...

Points Up THIS. ALL OF THIS.

I havent forgotten that the very early iteration of Batman killed people. But the iteration of the character that has been around the longest in comics and even on TV in animated form DOES NOT KILL. The story in Superman #22 or #23 where Superman executes that Phantom Zone villains is a...

I'm referring to mostly the cinematic version of Batman and the other DC characters.

I think that in this day and age, ESPECIALLY in this day and age we need some actual HOPE and WONDER. I'm also for different takes on Superheroes but as long as you can still recognize them AS those heroes. So we're in agreement here, especially on Superman. I'm not a fan of and have NEVER...

I know the history. I'm also aware of the somewhat toxic advocacy for the release of this particular cut of the film. Like I said, I'm hope people enjoy it. I wont be watching it or anything else from ZS in the DCU until he's gone and someone who's up for a lighter take on these heroes is up...

Yeah I'm not sure what he's on about. I know that I wasn't attacking or piling on newbie players. As a long time GM, Newbies are my FAVORITE type of player.

I know people are excited about this and I'm happy for them but I have no interest in this iteration of these characters. When they decide to make a hopeful, altruistic and lighter tone for Superman? I'm there. But this is very much not for me.

YUP. Look up the inital reviews for movies like ALIEN, BLADE RUNNER, THE THING (1982), STAR WARS and CITIZEN KANE. While there are one or two reviewers that have similar tastes to me and that I trust? Most reviewers have a barely hidden contempt for ANY type of genre film, specifically Horror...

Steel, just pack it up man. You are legitimately wasting your time here. These guys have an axe to grind with Paizo and Pathfinder and there's nothing that you can show or tell them that will promote a civil discourse on this topic. Considering that the thread is ABOUT the BB theyre just going...

Stands Up APPLAUSE

OKAY.

Agreed.

You are aware that Natalie Portman is also an Academy Award Winning Actress? IIRC for BLACK SWAN back in 2011-12? She's also won multiple Golden Globes as in two, for Closer and the other again for Black Swan. I just find it odd to claim that she's not a great actress and cite Jeremy Irons'...
