I've taken my own digs at the attitudes of comics nerds towards adaptations, but kind of the elephant in the room here is that most of those adaptations do suck.

It's funny to criticise formulaic writing after just saying they put together plots that don't make sense, and then talk themselves into thinking it's in character Side note, I really dislike the cowardice of defensively praising something you're about to be condescending to
"Lanterns" writer Tom King on Hal Jordan's murder: "We had a big debate. It was like, 'Does Kerry Kane get punished?' Nothing could punish her more than the fact that she did that thing and she has to live with it. There's no, like, jail isn't worse than that."

I think it's legitimate to question why a former CIA agent who helped in the rape of Iraq might be inclined to think a US agent of some kind or another should just be allowed to get away with it.
This is a trope in mystery fiction literally going back to MURDER ON THE ORIENT EXPRESS and I don't know how to respond to the quote tweets without just going "you cannot process normal narrative convention when it's coming out of the mouth of someone you don't like."

Quando digo que o Ronaldo tirou mais à selecção do que o que deu, o Euro 2016 é um bom exemplo. Os jogadores que mais carregaram a equipa, Pepe e Patrício, foram apagados. O facto de que a exibição mais coerente e consistente foi na final *depois* do Crisnaldo sair, também.
“Ronaldo carried Portugal in Euro 2016”😭😭😭

O mito do Crisnaldo exige o apagamento dos outros, primeiro em campo e depois na história.

Portugal conseguiu finalmente sintetizar os três Fs com este fado do Ronaldo cantado pelos pastorinhos da Nossa Senhora do Narcisismo.
"Herói com pés de barro, este povo que agora se apressa a desvalorizar o seu melhor activo, tratando-o como se ele fosse apenas mimado e mal-educado, espera que ele ceda o 7 ao primeiro que dobrar a esquina", escreve Paulo Baldaia. Leia mais: expresso.pt/opiniao/2026-10-…

Liberals love "12 Angry Men," but they don't realise they're, at best, the stockbroker character.

Esta sabujice perante o Cristiano Ronaldo é patética e, sinceramente, doentia. O cornaldismo é uma doença psico-social.

"Nobody wins unless everybody wins" apparently doesn't include Palestinians, or the other many victims of the Democrats.
I can think of a lot of family members who think it matters that Donald Trump was elected in 2024 instead of Kamala Harris.

I think this is also why so many western progressives seem to genuinely believe "LotR" and Tolkien are progressive. Evalengical rightists are so extreme they make the hypocritical, patriarchal, paternalist expressions of kindness of Catholicism seem progressive by comparison
I hate evangelicals. I genuinely think they're the worst religion currently. But I'll never hold any candle to catholicism or the catholic church. They aren't the center of leftist liberation as online Christians say they are. This is just revisionism.

They didn't vote "to punish Democrats," and it's your strategy of unconditional support for a party even as it commits genocide that led to this and more, and will lead to worse.
I think there is frustration that some people voted to punish Democrats over Gaza, knowing that would produce a worse outcome for that region, plus thousands dead from USAID cuts, more war elsewhere and a worse economy at home and still think they made a rational choice.

- Faltou ao funeral de um colega de seleção - Atirou a braçadeira de capitão ao chão (2 vezes) - Teve problemas com 4 (!!!) dos 6 selecionadores que o treinaram - Abandonou o estágio da seleção depois de amuar com o treinador Há gente a defender isto.

Contrary to their self-definition as disruptive outsiders, most comedians have completely status-quo aligned world views When they get to make their movies and want to give them some "heart" or moral grounding, it's usually bland, banal, conformist stuff, mawkishly expressed
the one annoying thing about going back and watching this movie as a contemporary leftist is that the weird communist peasant that has his own entire scene in which he’s portrayed as totally insufferable is actually just completely right about everything

Case in point
🚨 HIDDEN FACT: EUSEBIO failed to help Portugal qualify for 1962, 1970 and 1974 World Cups. During his career, Portugal only qualified for 1 out of 4 World Cups. He also won a grand total of 0 trophies for Portugal. Historic failure.

Os cornaldos vivem numa realidade paralela
Triste, patético, vergonhoso... Portugal ontem foi humilhado por um Dinamarquês que fez o que todo o mundo queria ver.
