The Mifune meme made me realise "wait, people dont really talk about him that often, dont they?"

Think about it, isnt it strange? He appeals both to boys as the stoic badass samurai ("Omg he doesnt need a demon weapon, his soul is worth 99!") and to girls as a pretty boy to ship with the other pretty boys (as they do with Spirit and Stein, but maybe Im being too dismisive and thats cause those two have shared backstory)

But no matter how controversial it is to say that what I just implied, it's no question that Mifune had all the atributes to be made into a fanfavorite - "Oh he's so cool and serious but he also protects the innocent look how friendly he is with kids!" "Wow is he a bad guy or good guy??! What intrigue" "wow look how epic his battles with BS are!" and (manga spoilers) "Wow what a dignified death, how tragic and sad, yet how beautiful!"

The joke is, this might sound as if I was some fanboy crying about people not appreciating a charachter - but the thing is I dont really care about him myself lol.

Like on an "intelectuall" level I get that I should but somehow he was allways just ok, had cool scenes and is more likeable than not, but somehow he never really "connnected" or "resonated" with me (what zero demon weapons does to a mf?)

So with that said:

Is Mifune an underrated charachter?

Yeah

Nah

idk

If Kiri is capable of controlling the life on pandora, what stopped her from obliterating the blue crew off the face of the planet upon their first encounter?

Anon, are you asking me to solve James Cameron's plot holes?

The answer though seems to be that Kiri has very little control over what she's doing, and half believes she isn't doing it/is just crazy. A lot of it, remember, is breathing in time with the grass. It's not that cool looking, just weird. It also seems to be more of a "she's one with nature" deal versus so much her telling it what to do all the time, which means I doubt she could control say the ocean and overturn the ships (at least not right now).

The other answer is then Jake wouldn't have anything to do in the movie, would he? And we can't have that.

Kinda strange to see people claim to be anti-capitalist and then turn around and tell commission artists that they hope they lose their jobs to AI art. Wishing that someone would lose their livelihood because their source of income was monopolized seems pretty capitalist to me.

These are my favourite Star Wars Characters of all time, in order: 

Anakin Skywalker, Luke Skywalker, Captain Rex, Hera Syndulla, Shmi Skywalker, Luminara Unduli, C3PO, and Jar Jar Binks!

I would love to do a little self-indulgent post on why each one is a favourite of mine, but I thought I might just do some gifs of them first! :)

The Mandalorian: My thoughts

I am noticing complaints that the episodes are feeling like filler and wondering what happened to the story of the first couple of episodes.

For a bit, I was wondering about that same thing, but I'm thinking we've all been so spoiled by shows like Lost or GoT-that always have cliffhangers or every episode connects to each other somehow-nobody is considering that that's probably not what this show wants to do.

I suspect this will be more of an episodic adventure series like Samurai Jack. The show still has that main plot in the back, but it's more about the journey of getting there and the characters the protagonist encounters along the way.

And I'm ok with that. It's actually kind of refreshing for me.

Give us your full The Boys take please

Oh damn god, I actually don't have particularly strong views on the Boy's one way or the other beyond that nebulous nerdthink "it's bad" back when I still bought the line Superman was hard done to as fictional characters go. In retrospect it's probably Ennis at his worst instincts however even that I can't fault because I do think it's good to have at least one comic that exists to largely spite people who really like Chris Clermont's X-Men.
