i dont like superhero movies if ind them boring and pretty formulaic

That's because Batman's villains are often more interesting than him. Bruce can be described in a couple sentences, it's how the antagonists mold him that makes him interesting.

Goes for a lot of superheroes.

Batman movies were pretty lame imo. Never felt the 'world's greatest detective' part of the lore of bruce wayne. Nor did he seem that intelligent in the movie.

Speaking of potato chips, you know the company Calbee?
Their most famous product seems to be the shrimp flavored chips.

Well, I was surprised when I went to Japan and they had stalls where they would just serve freshly fried potato chips and drizzled with chocolate and served with frosting for about $4.

My DC knowledge isn't as strong as Marvel, was that a joke or are you talking about one of the Superwomans? I thought she was Power Girl now?

No, that was me coming back to the original original topic of superheroines being bad at being super and heroines.

Japan is weird, news at 11.

Are those... shrimp flavored chips? Or just regular potato chips? if the former, ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww. otherwise I guess I can roll with it.

In brazil they put potato chips on thick cheesy lasagna. it's so good.

Cheep please, I like to have this image of you where you're a cultured intellectual. Now I can only picture you as the dude in the movie theater looking at his phone sighing loudly when 15 minutes have passed without an explosion.

Go back to books you're not wanted here.


i dont like old movies cause they're basically shitty watered down books

Well, a lot of them were like that, yeah, but there's no way it's even 50%. Comedies basically never, some like it hot or big business or modern times or safety last come to mind. Only high profile adaption I can think of is the philadelphia story and it's not even from a book.

Actually comedies today are much much more likely to be aping a novel because so many of them are basically just modernized jane austen.

It's when you get into the drama that adaptions (and if you saw a movie that was trying to be novelistic, it was an adaptation) start to clog up the works. Some of them turn out well like treasure of the sierra madre or gone with the wind or the big sleep, but for every one of those there's some bullshit like the hustler. So I can buy that argument, sorta-ish, except it's easy to display the tiniest shred of selectively instead of just selecting movies at random, so the relative proportion of shit to money is not that significant.
