Spoilers She-Hulk: Attorney at Law discussion thread

Soon though computer graphics and tech will be so advanced that people with little money will be able for cheap make really good looking stuff on the internet in terms of production value. Only young peoples attention spans have all but vanished so it will all be for stuff running like 10 minutes or so. Tv will still appeal to people like it currently does only that is becoming less young people. Also the comic book era will end at some point.

My prediction is a return to anti-hero stuff, Edgy comedy. Makes sense that it would cycle around to that at some point. You had it in the 70's and you lost it in the 80's and you had in the 90's and early 2000's and you lost it around the time of social media and Trump and that's been going on for about 6 years or so and that means it will likely come back in 3 to 5 years. Then it will last until people get tired of it and repeat the cycle.

You're describing the South Park pilot.

They made a pilot at home on Windows 95.

They shopped it around.

1/2 a trillion dollars later its unwatchable sanctimonious claptrap.
 
Saul is a extension from when the genre was still big. Also you will always have a few examples all the time. Like how even though Westerns are dead but you still have a few westerns from time to time.

Generally speaking right now it's all comic book stuff and reboots and sequels. Also lots of positive life affirming stuff like The Good Place and Ted Lasso which is basically trying to put more upbeat spins on old story tropes. Some of it's actually pretty good. But some of it also goes bad like Discovery.

Lot of is because the market moves away from Gen X, which loved edgy and dark stuff. Young people wants stuff that is socially conscious. Problem is that won't last because of the internet. Tv and movies work better on a raw emotional level and what younger people like works better on the internet because the internet allows you to be a active participant in your entertainment as opposed to watching it on a tv screen.

That's a big reason why the internet is replacing tv's old role in society. People aren't just watching but going online and being apart of it. It's why I think like 80% of young people now grow saying they want to be online influencers. I am guessing almost everyone at some point will have a podcast,blog or Youtube channel. Gen X and previous generation didn't grow up wanting to live on the internet.

What you mean the clearly narcissistic misogynist guy that specifically asked if vibranium could pierce her skin right after she gets jumped in an attempt to pierce her skin, and then goes out and buys a vibranium weapon? Nope! Nothing sus going on there! ;)
Yeah, that guy! :lol:

Honestly, it doesn't matter if men are "generally" assholes. What matters is that the assholish behavior of other men towards women is basically hidden from us as guys, but women have no choice but to deal with it.
^This. Even the lovely men in my life are often blindsided when they hear us women talk about asshole behavior from other men.

Two quick flashes. Look closely at the end of the second. I wonder after Jen's thoughts before the gala if there could be a bigger fight about to happen.

Yeah, I had several friends who were great guys all the time. The women who knew them had many different and less savory versions to speak of. I'm sure several women would have equally ill stories to speak of me back in my stupider days of youth. Men are assholes. Some grow out of it. Too many grow worse with age.
 
I agree but some women are also assholes, and I'm sure their friends don't see them that way either.

I started to realize this when a close lesbian friend's girlfriend turned out to be pretty much a sociopath. I started noticing other female friends' girlfriends were assholish and/or possessive and controlling. It's not a gender thing so much, just different things done in different ways. (I was working in a gay bar at the time and saw it all.)
I had a few female friends who said every guy they dated turned out to be an asshole. When they would never consider their part in the mess that was their lives you could guess they had no small part in instigating their disastrous outcomes.
 
There is no such thing as assholes. The proper scientific term is buttholes. Since everyone has a butt with a hole it means we are all buttholes.
 
^ i don't believe that.... men are not generally assholes.

I don't think every guy is an asshole, I know I sure as hell try my hardest not to be, but pretty much every woman has stories (plural) about dealing with asshole guys.
 
i just had a look at myself.... maybe i wasnt the best man when i was younger.
But looking at my sons, and young ppl in general today, i think they are better versions.

And there are some extreme cultural caps all over the world where old "wise" men
have a horrific view towards women, in europe, usa, the arabic world, Africa etc that have
laws that forbid abortions and so on.

it's discouraging to think of.... but maybe the majority of men really are terrible assholes...
we have a long way to go before arriving at any Star Trek version of reality, thats for sure.

anyway i have hope for the future, i really mean that, the young ppl today ARE better
versions of humans than the generations before.
 
That opening sequence was good. I don’t know why she is in prison. She barely did anything. Feels like I’m missing something.
That was a very weird ending. It was more meta than Deadpool. At least she asked where the X-Men are.
So Bruce was off doing Planet Hulk. I haven’t heard of a third Hulk movie in the works. I think Universal still have the rights for solo Hulk movies.
Abomination will be in Dr Strange 3 I’m guessing.

big lol at the whole
wall breaking "I want to speak to K.E.V.I.N" up and including the ending

I probably missed half the references and meanings to TV shows/movies past/present and future and would be happy to read a summary from more savy fan people about that part.
