Why Modern Movies are a Bunch of Disappointments (And Why We Keep Watching Them Anyway)

Leave a Comment / Movies / By

Modern movies have come a long way since the golden age of cinema, but it’s hard not to feel like something is missing. While technological advancements have allowed filmmakers to create stunning visuals and intricate worlds, the creativity and soul of the medium have been lost. The current Hollywood landscape is dominated by comic book adaptations, sequels, and remakes, leaving audiences feeling unfulfilled and underwhelmed. This blog will explore why modern movies are often disappointing and why we keep watching them anyway.  One of the main reasons modern movies fail to live up to expectations is the focus on franchise building. Hollywood studios have become obsessed with creating shared universes and profitable franchises, resulting in a steady revenue stream. The problem with this approach is that it prioritizes box office success over artistic merit, often leading to bland, formulaic films. It’s no secret that sequels and franchise films are more profitable than original works. Still, this approach stifles creativity and reduces the art of filmmaking to a business model.  Take the “Star Wars” franchise, for example. The original trilogy, released in the late 1970s and early 1980s, was a game-changer that defined the space opera genre. However, while visually impressive, the subsequent sequels and spin-offs failed to capture the original’s magic. The prequel trilogy, released in the late 1990s and early 2000s, was met with mixed reviews. The more recent sequels, such as “The Force Awakens” and “The Last Jedi,” were criticized for their lack of originality and reliance on nostalgia. Despite this, the franchise continues to be a box office juggernaut, proving that audiences are willing to keep watching even when the quality of the films is lacking.  Another reason modern movies disappoint is the reliance on special effects and CGI. While technology has allowed filmmakers to create incredible visuals and worlds, it’s also created a dependency on computer-generated images. The overuse of CGI has resulted in a lack of tactile, tangible elements in films, making the experience less immersive and impactful. CGI is a tool that should be used to enhance a film, not replace the core elements that make it great. Take the film “Jaws,” for example. The original film, released in 1975, was a groundbreaking thriller that relied on practical effects, such as a mechanical shark, to create a sense of terror. The film was a critical and commercial success and is widely regarded as one of the greatest films of all time. In contrast, modern films like “Pirates of the Caribbean” rely heavily on CGI. They are criticized for their lack of real-world elements and over-the-top spectacle. The result is a hollow experience that fails to engage audiences in the same way as “Jaws” did. Another factor contributing to the disappointment of modern movies is the remaking of classic films. While remakes can be a chance to bring a beloved story to a new generation, they often fall short of the original. This is because remakes are often driven by nostalgia and a desire to cash in on the original’s success rather than a passion for the story. The result is a sanitized, watered-down version of the original that fails to capture the magic that made the original so special.  Another trend in modern movies that contributes to disappointment is adapting popular books into films. The book “Fight Club” was a provocative and thought-provoking work that explored the themes of consumerism and masculinity. The film adaptation, released in 1999, was a faithful and powerful interpretation of the book that captured the essence of its themes and characters. In contrast, modern films that are adaptations often fail to live up to their source material. They often lack the depth and nuance of the original work, resorting to shallow, generic interpretations that fail to connect with audiences. This is a common problem with book adaptations, as filmmakers struggle to translate the complexities of the source material into a visual medium.  Another trend in modern movies that contributes to disappointment is the overuse of established brands and intellectual property. Hollywood has become obsessed with adapting everything from comic books to board games, resulting in many films lacking originality. The problem with this approach is that it prioritizes brand recognition over creativity, leading to films that are safe, formulaic, and lacking in imagination. While these films may be financially successful, they often fail to connect with audiences meaningfully. Take the film “Snatch,” for example. The original film, released in 2000, was a quirky, off-beat crime comedy that stood out from the crowd. The film was praised for its originality and fresh approach to the genre. In contrast, modern films like “21 Jump Street” rely on established brands and intellectual property, resulting in a bland, formulaic experience. These films lack the wit and originality of “Snatch” and fail to capture the hearts and minds of audiences.  Despite all of these shortcomings, we keep watching modern movies anyway. The reason is simple: we love the escape that movies provide. Whether it’s a fantasy world filled with magic and adventure, or a dramatic tale of love and loss, movies provide a respite from the real world. They allow us to experience new and exciting stories, worlds, and characters. Even though many modern movies fail to live up to expectations, we keep watching them because we’re drawn to the promise of a great story.  In conclusion, modern movies are often disappointing because of the focus on franchise building, the overuse of special effects and CGI, the trend of remaking classic films, and the reliance on established brands and intellectual property. Despite these shortcomings, we keep watching movies because of the escape they provide. While it’s easy to be critical of modern movies, it’s important to remember that they reflect the times in which they are made. The best we can do is continue to support original, creative works that push the boundaries of the medium and provide audiences with a truly memorable experience. 12 February 2023 Why Modern Movies are a Bunch …

Uncovering the Mystery: The Possibility of Tim and Lex being John Hammond's Clones

Uncovering the Mystery: The Possibility of Tim and Lex being John Hammond’s Clones

Leave a Comment / 80s and 90's, Movies, Theories / By

John Hammond, the founder and CEO of InGen, was a man with a vision. He dreamed of creating a theme park filled with genetically engineered dinosaurs, which would be the biggest attraction in the world. He was a brilliant man, but he also had a secret that not many people knew about. Tim and Lex, two siblings who were among the main characters in the original “Jurassic Park” film, may in fact be John Hammond’s clones. One of the main arguments for this theory is that we never see Tim and Lex’s parents in the film. This has led many fans to speculate that they were either adopted or, in this case, created in a lab. Another piece of evidence is the fact that Tim and Lex are willing to travel to a dangerous and remote island to visit a theme park, despite the fact that there are live dinosaurs on the loose. This could be seen as a testament to their bravery, but it could also be seen as a sign that they have a deeper connection to the park and its creator, John Hammond. So, how could John Hammond have used the dinosaur lab with his own DNA to make Tim and Lex? The answer lies in the cutting-edge technology that he had at his disposal. John Hammond was a man who was always looking for ways to push the boundaries of science and technology, and he may have seen the opportunity to create life in the lab as a means of fulfilling his own ambitions. It’s also possible that John Hammond was not just interested in creating a theme park filled with genetically engineered dinosaurs, but also in creating a new form of life that was tied to his own DNA. This would have given him complete control over the park and its inhabitants, as well as a sense of legacy that would live on long after he was gone. As for why he would have created Tim and Lex specifically, it’s possible that he saw them as a way of ensuring that his vision would continue even after he was gone. Perhaps he believed that having his own children would give him the power to ensure that the park would be run the way he wanted it to be run, even after he was no longer there to oversee it. The fact that Tim and Lex are willing to put themselves in harm’s way to visit the park could also be seen as a sign of their connection to John Hammond. They may have felt that they had a responsibility to help protect the park and its inhabitants, as well as to ensure that the legacy of John Hammond would live on. Of course, this theory is purely speculative, and there is no concrete evidence to support it. However, it does provide an interesting new perspective on the “Jurassic Park” franchise, and raises important questions about the role of science and technology in our lives. Regardless of whether or not Tim and Lex are actually John Hammond’s clones, the “Jurassic Park” franchise has left a lasting impact on popular culture and has inspired countless people to think about the power of science and the importance of respecting the natural world. It’s a testament to the enduring legacy of John Hammond, and a reminder of the impact that one man’s vision can have on the world. 12 February 2023 Uncovering the Mystery: The Possibility of Tim and Lex being John Hammond’s Clones 12 February 2023 The Fuzzy Memories of Obi-Wan Kenobi: A Jedi’s Journey with Dementia 12 February 2023 The Endless Wait: Red Dead Redemption 3 and Fallout 5’s Journey to Release in the 2030s 11 February 2023 Padame Did Not Die of a Broken Heart 11 February 2023 Could Don Draper be the infamous D.B.

obi wan memory loss

The Fuzzy Memories of Obi-Wan Kenobi: A Jedi’s Journey with Dementia

Leave a Comment / 80s and 90's, Movies, Theories / By

“Memory is a curious thing, isn’t it?” says Obi-Wan Kenobi, scratching his bearded chin. “One moment, it’s crystal clear, and the next, it’s as foggy as a Tatooine sandstorm.” And when it comes to our dear old Obi-Wan, it seems that his memory may be a little more foggy than we initially thought. You see, when Luke Skywalker asks about his father, Obi-Wan tells him that he trained Anakin Skywalker and that he was betrayed and murdered by Darth Vader. But when he encounters R2-D2 and C-3PO on Tatooine, he acts as if he’s never seen the droids before. And when Luke mentions that they belong to his father, Obi-Wan simply says, “Your father? How would I know that?” Now, some may argue that Obi-Wan was simply playing dumb to protect Luke from the truth about Darth Vader. But what if it’s not just an act? What if Obi-Wan genuinely doesn’t remember ever having met R2-D2 and C-3PO, or even Anakin Skywalker for that matter? Could it be that our wise old Jedi Master is suffering from some form of memory loss or dementia? It’s a possibility that we cannot ignore. After all, he’s been through a lot in his life, from fighting in the Clone Wars to hiding from the Empire on Tatooine. The stress of such events can take a toll on a person’s memory. But why would he lie to Luke about his father? Well, it’s possible that his memory loss is causing him to mix up details and that he genuinely believes that Anakin was betrayed and murdered by Darth Vader. Or, he may have lied to protect Luke and himself, knowing that the truth about Vader would be too much for the young Jedi to handle. Regardless of the reason, it’s clear that something is not quite right with Obi-Wan’s memory. And while it may be a sensitive subject, it’s important to address it so that we can better understand and appreciate the character. So, what do we do about it? Well, for starters, we need to acknowledge that memory loss and dementia are not something to be ashamed of. They are a natural part of aging and can happen to anyone, even Jedi Masters. We need to approach the subject with compassion and understanding, and support those who are struggling with it. In the end, whether it’s due to stress, aging, or something else entirely, Obi-Wan’s memory loss is a reminder that even the wisest and strongest among us are not immune to the effects of time. And while it may change the way we see him, it does not diminish his impact on the Star Wars universe or the lessons that he taught us about the power of the Force and the importance of standing up for what is right. So, let’s raise a glass to the memory of our dear old Jedi Master, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and to the memories that we hold dear. May the Force be with us, always. 12 February 2023 The Fuzzy Memories of Obi-Wan Kenobi: A Jedi’s Journey with Dementia 12 February 2023 The Endless Wait: Red Dead Redemption 3 and Fallout 5’s Journey to Release in the 2030s 11 February 2023 Padame Did Not Die of a Broken Heart 11 February 2023 Could Don Draper be the infamous D.B.

padame dead

Padame Did Not Die of a Broken Heart

Leave a Comment / 80s and 90's, Movies, Theories / By

It’s incredible that one of the biggest plot points in Star Wars history was explained away by a mere broken heart, and just like that it’s case closed and never talked about again. It’s literally the f*cking Jeffrey Epstein of Star Wars. Since 2005 there has been a growing amount of Star Wars fans that are debating the events that concluded the prequel series, which is arguably the best in the series “Revenge of the Sith”. Fans have been speculating that there is no way that Padme was killed by a broken heart, and we’re here to tell you that this was absolutely NOT the case.  The only time someone says anything about this “broken heart” is when SHE says it while she was begging Anakin to stop his attack on the Jedi. Which sure this could break your heart to know that the love of your live, the father of your unborn children is a mass murdering maniac.  At this moment Anakin is admitting that he’s turned against them, shacking up with Palpatine’s takeover, and then eventually plotting to overthrow him, Padame collapses, but the big million dollar question is would that be enough to kill her?  We Say Nay But Could Have it Been Anakin’s Force Choke?  As shady as a move as this was, and as angry as Anakin was with Padme siding with Obi-Wan, he did let her go. Even though they were trying to kill him he releases her, and the movie goes through great lengths to show you that she very clearly survives his attack. You can even see her breathing as she’s unconscious on the floor. Then Obi-Wan gets back on the ship after leaving Anakin half the man he used to be, and we see that her breathing once again. Now is it possible that this could have been the cause of her death…maybe, but the film reaffirms more than once that this was not the cause of her death. The Hell Do Droids Know About the Force Anyway?  After Padme gets to Polis Massa she is immediately taken to a medical bay and is cared for by medical droids. Now let’s get one thing straight: Droids don’t know Squat About The Force. They don’t even know about it unless it’s been specifically programmed into them. You can clearly see that whatever was happening with Padme had to do with The Force and if you remember the exact words the droid said were as follows. DROID “Medically, she’s completely healthy. For reasons we can’t explain, we’re losing her.”  Obi-Wan “She’s dying?!”  DROID “ We don’t know why. She’s lost the will to live. We need to operate quickly if we are to save the babies”   Let’s break this down “For reasons we can’t explain, we’re losing her.” The reason is The Force “We don’t know why. She’s lost the will to live.” Almost like her connection with the living Force was being cut off? Obviously the droids would not be able to pick that up! Was Padme not the type to actually struggle the entire time? Wasn’t she fighting to stay conscious all the way through to the bitter end of the birth of her children, it’s pretty obvious that her will to live was incredibly strong. Then question then comes down to why was her Life Force being torn away, seemingly siphoned off by a Force Vampire, could it be possible that this is the power of someone who would be able to control the Forces of life and death? Even able to cheat it? This is definitely starting to sound like someone I know… Remember the story of Darth Plagueis the Wise? Well Palpatine certainly did, so much so he learned the powers of his old master and killed him off when there was nothing more he could acquire from him. So, this means while Anakin was laying burnt to a crisp on Mustafar, Palpatine was sucking the Life Force from Padme and then in turn giving it to Anakin. So, Padme died so Anakin could be reborn as Darth Vader! “I Sense Lord Vader is in Danger”  So the question remains, how the hell Palpatine could effect Padme when she’s on Polis Massa? Remember when Palpatine was battling Yoda? Well he knew something was wrong with Anakin while he was all the way out on Mustafar. Remember this is the day that Palpatine was at the height of his power, when the Dark Side of The Force was the strongest in him. Completely blindsiding the Jedi, who are fighting this rise in the Dark Side. If he was aware of what was going on with Anakin on Mustafar then certainly he was capable of reaching Padme on Polis Massa. “But She Was Alive. I Felt It”  Darth Vader rises, he’s not the same man that was Anakin Skywalker. He’s been beaten, burned, and definitely did NOT have the High Ground. The only thing possibly keeping him alive is the Life Force that had been taken from Padme and given to him, brought to you by the Master of Dark Arts and one evil son-of-a-bitch. This is not some crazy coincidence that Padme had died the exact moment that Darth Vader is born, and the first thing that he does is ask about Padme. Anakin, remember, was awake through the entirety of the procedure that saved his life and during it he could feel Padme’s Life Force. He knew the whole time that the Force Choke did not kill his wife. Palpatine: “Lord Vader, can you hear me?”  Vader: “Yes Master. Where is Padme? Is she safe? Is she alright?”  Palpatine: “It seems, in your anger, you killed her.”  Vader: “I-I couldn’t have. She was ALIVE-I FELT IT.”  *Palpatine Smiles*  Vader: “NOOOOOOOOOOO…”  The evidence is clear, Anakin knew that she was still alive and then felt her Life Force leave her. The Emperor smiles in satisfaction, but there is one more SOLID piece of evidence to back all of …

The flintstones post apocalypse

Did ‘The Flintstones’ Actually Take Place In A Post-Apocalyptic Hellscape?

Leave a Comment / 80s and 90's, Anime, Comics, Movies, Television, Theories / By

Hold onto your Bronto-Burgers, folks, because we’re about to go on a wild ride through the streets of Bedrock! You remember that classic cartoon from the 80s and 90s, don’t you? The one that showed us how families lived in the Stone Age, with their animal-powered machinery, crude tools, and simple way of life? Well, what if I told you that everything we thought we knew about the Flintstones was a lie? That they weren’t living in the Stone Age at all, but instead, in a dystopian post-apocalyptic wasteland that had been bombed back to the Stone Age? Let’s start with the evidence. First of all, we have the 1987 TV movie “The Jetsons Meet the Flintstones.” In the movie, Elroy Jetson creates a time machine that malfunctions and sends him and his family into the past. But what if it wasn’t the past they traveled to? What if, instead, they traveled to the future, a future beyond their understanding? And that future just happened to look like the Stone Age. Think about it. If there was a major cataclysmic event that caused the world to revert back to the Stone Age, it would make sense that the surviving animal species would get a fresh start in this new world. They wouldn’t be hunted by humans anymore, and they would have the opportunity to flourish and evolve. Some of them might even gain sentience. That would explain why the Flintstones have all of these amazing animal-powered machines like a pig that lives under their sink as a garbage disposal, a micro-elephant on wheels used as a vacuum cleaner, or a bird’s beak used as a record player. And all of them are able to break the 4th wall in perfect English to complain about their jobs. And speaking of modernity, let’s talk about Christmas. The Flintstones celebrate this holiday, which is more than just putting presents under the tree and kissing under the mistletoe. It’s a celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ. But wait a minute, didn’t we think the Flintstones were living in the Stone Age, long before the birth of Christ? How could they celebrate Christmas AND be living in a time of pre-history? This just adds to the evidence that these characters aren’t who or what we thought they were. Another piece of evidence is the fact that the Flintstones have a sophisticated and robust economy. They don’t operate on a trading or bartering system, but instead have money and a complicated banking system. They even have deposit slips that they fill out with a rock and chisel. And their currency looks strikingly modern-day, with some Illuminati symbolism printed on it. To have a functioning economy, they would have had to have the ability to produce ink, which wouldn’t have been readily available in the aftermath of the initial fallout. Finally, let’s consider the timing of the Flintstones. The cartoon first aired from 1960 to 1966, during the peak of the Cold War. What if the showdown between the United States and the Soviet Union happened and the world was plunged into a post-apocalyptic wasteland, with only the remnants of society left to rebuild from the ashes? The Flintstones could be a glimpse into that future. In conclusion, when you take all of these pieces of evidence into consideration, it’s possible that the Flintstones weren’t living in the Stone Age after all, but in a post-apocalyptic wasteland, using what was available to them to rebuild their world in the image of what they remembered from the past. The next time you watch an episode of The Flintstones, think about all of these hidden secrets, and you might see the cartoon in a whole new light. 10 February 2023 Did ‘The Flintstones’ Actually Take Place In A Post-Apocalyptic Hellscape? 10 February 2023 101 Dalmatians (1961) – Was Anita in on the Puppy Heist? 03 February 2023 Here Are The Most Anticipated Games Coming 2023 So Far 03 February 2023 The Boys Ratings Leave Every Marvel Show in the Dust 03 February 2023 BIG Stable Steam Deck Update 02 February 2023 Ark Survival Evolved is getting Remastered! 04 January 2023 Gamers File Lawsuit to Halt Microsoft’s proposed acquisition of Activision Blizzard 04 January 2023 The Joker and Harley VS Gomez and Morticia – Toxic vs Timeless 04 January 2023 Hogwarts Legacy Update 04 January 2023 E3 is Back this Year: What we Know so Far.

101 Dalmatians Anita

101 Dalmatians (1961) – Was Anita in on the Puppy Heist?

Leave a Comment / 80s and 90's, Anime, Movies, Theories / By

Ah, the enigmatic and elusive Anita Radcliffe! The Disney movie “101 Dalmatians” is full of colorful characters, but this lady takes the cake for being one of the most mysterious and ambiguous of them all. Sure, we know that she has a Dalmatian and likes to read in the park, but beyond that, it’s anyone’s guess as to what’s going on in her mind. But don’t be fooled by her lack of dialogue and actions – Anita’s character is displayed through the things she doesn’t say or do. According to reddit user u/gascanfiasco‘s fantheory Anita my be hiding a dark secret. Was she wealthy, maybe from a family with money?  And could she have actually been in cahoots with her evil friend from school, Cuella da Vil? This theory suggests she could have been. First of all, let’s talk about Anita’s background. We’re first introduced to Roger, who’s living in a run-down apartment. But once he marries Anita, they move into a spacious townhouse with multiple rooms, a nanny, and all the bells and whistles! Pongo describes it as a “modest little place”, but it’s a far cry from where Roger and he used to live. Now, let’s consider that Roger’s songs are yet to be recognized, so it’s not like he’s making a ton of money just yet. So, one might wonder, where did they get all the funds to live in such a lavish lifestyle? That money must have come from Anita somehow. Cruella obviously comes from money and if her and Anita attended the same school it’s safe to assume they both come from affluent families. Later on in the movie, when Roger’s songs become a hit, Anita mentions how the money brought in was more than they could ever imagine. But there’s not a single change in their house, clothing, or lifestyle. It seems like they were doing just fine without all the extra cash.  Now, let’s talk about Anita’s indifference. Right before Cruella makes her grand entrance, Perdita freaks out and hides. As a pet owner, you would expect Anita to notice, but nope! Cruella walks in, smoking a smelly cigarette that Anita obviously dislikes, and even extinguishes it in a cupcake when Anita offers her tea– but still, not a peep from Anita. It’s like she doesn’t even care. And when Cruella mocks her home, social status, and husband, she still doesn’t say a word. It’s almost as if she’s indifferent to the whole situation. But wait, it gets even more interesting! After Pongo’s conversation with Perdita about being pregnant, Cruella just shows up, asking to see the puppies. How in the world did she know about them? And why didn’t Anita seem concerned that Cruella, known for her love of fur coats, was asking about the puppies? This should have been a red flag but Anita acts as if this behavior is expected. When the puppies are born, Cruella shows up again right on cue and tries to buy them. She bullies Anita and belittles Roger, and for a moment, it seems like Anita is standing up for the puppies. But then, something strange happens. Right before Roger stands up to Cruella, she accidentally splashes ink all over him and Pongo, making them covered in spots, just like a Dalmatian. But Anita? Not a single spot on her. Even when Cruella pulls out her checkbook, Anita doesn’t say a word. It’s almost like she’s in on the whole thing. Fast-forward to when the puppies are stolen, Roger is sure it was Cruella, but Anita tells him that Cruella isn’t a thief. But, come on now, we all know what she’s capable of. She runs a business that kills and skins furry animals and Cruella is openly passionate about her love of furs. And why did Anita inform Cruella of Perdita’s pregnancy and the puppies’ delivery? Why did she go silent when the checkbook came out? The answer to these questions remains a mystery, but one thing’s for sure – Anita’s loyalties are definitely questionable. She could be in on the whole thing. Or at the very least she could be happy to be rid of the puppies. Either way, we have our eye on you Anita! 10 February 2023 101 Dalmatians (1961) – Was Anita in on the Puppy Heist? 03 February 2023 Here Are The Most Anticipated Games Coming 2023 So Far 03 February 2023 The Boys Ratings Leave Every Marvel Show in the Dust 03 February 2023 BIG Stable Steam Deck Update 02 February 2023 Ark Survival Evolved is getting Remastered! 04 January 2023 Gamers File Lawsuit to Halt Microsoft’s proposed acquisition of Activision Blizzard 04 January 2023 The Joker and Harley VS Gomez and Morticia – Toxic vs Timeless 04 January 2023 Hogwarts Legacy Update 04 January 2023 E3 is Back this Year: What we Know so Far. 03 January 2023 World of Warcraft: Dragonflight

The boys vs marvel

The Boys Ratings Leave Every Marvel Show in the Dust

Leave a Comment / Movies, Television / By

Well, well, well, it looks like Phase 4 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe had a bit of a rough time, didn’t it? With box office results that left Marvel feeling a little under the weather, they decided to switch things up and focus on streaming. But, oh boy, did that backfire! Despite all the money and marketing behind Disney+’s Marvel series, it seems like they just couldn’t keep up with Amazon’s “The Boys.” This series, which is known for being a little rough around the edges, was the most watched superhero series of 2022, leaving all of Marvel’s Disney+ offerings in the dust. And, let’s be honest, “The Boys” isn’t exactly the easiest show to watch. But, even with its tough subject matter, it’s still better than the lackluster shows Marvel was putting out. But let’s talk about the big elephant in the room – Nielsen ratings. “The Boys” was the 11th most watched original streaming show of 2022 with 10.6 billion minutes viewed, and not a single show from Disney+ made the list! How embarrassing! Meanwhile, over at Disney+, the streamer’s superhero shows failed to crack the top 15 original streaming series for 2022. “Moon Knight,” “Miss Marvel,” and “She-Hulk: Attorney at Law” were all released, but none of them were able to secure a spot on the list. And, even with “Miss Marvel” being crowned the best reviewed superhero show of 2022 by Rotten Tomatoes, it still had the lowest ratings. Talk about a disconnect between critics and audiences! All of this just goes to show that despite having popular characters, a ton of money, and a strong marketing campaign, you just can’t beat a good show. And, it seems like Marvel just couldn’t keep up with the success of “The Boys.” Oh, and let’s not forget about Netflix. Their CEO, Ted Sarandos, claimed that the streaming giant has never canceled a successful series. But, with Disney+ losing 1.5 billion dollars just in the past quarter, it’s clear that their superhero shows just weren’t cutting it. So, it looks like Marvel is in for some bad news. Despite their best efforts, “The Boys” is sitting pretty as the king of the superhero series.

The Joker and Harley vs Gomez and Morticia

The Joker and Harley VS Gomez and Morticia – Toxic vs Timeless

Leave a Comment / 80s and 90's, Comics, Movies, Television, Theories, Video games / By

The relationship between the Joker and Harley Quinn, two characters from the Batman franchise, has been a source of controversy and debate among fans and critics. While the characters have a long history together in various media, their relationship has often been depicted as toxic, abusive, and unhealthy. One of the main reasons why the Joker and Harley Quinn’s relationship is considered toxic is due to the power dynamic between the two characters. The Joker is often portrayed as a manipulative, controlling, and abusive partner, while Harley Quinn is frequently depicted as a victim of his abuse. In many versions of the characters’ story, the Joker is shown to manipulate and gaslight Harley Quinn, using her feelings of love and loyalty to control her and bend her to his will. He often belittles and demeans her, and is prone to outbursts of violence and aggression towards her. The Joker’s abusive behavior towards Harley Quinn is particularly concerning given the significant power imbalance between the two characters. The Joker is often depicted as a highly intelligent and powerful villain, while Harley Quinn is often portrayed as a vulnerable and naive woman who is reliant on the Joker for support and direction. In addition to the power dynamic between the Joker and Harley Quinn, their relationship is also problematic due to the way it glorifies and romanticizes abuse and toxic behavior. In some versions of their story, the Joker and Harley Quinn’s tumultuous relationship is depicted as a twisted form of love, with the abuse and manipulation being portrayed as a normal or even desirable part of their dynamic. This portrayal of abuse and toxic behavior as a form of love is highly concerning, as it can serve to normalize and justify abusive behaviors in real-life relationships. It is important to recognize and critique the problematic elements of the Joker and Harley Quinn’s dynamic, and to remember that real-life relationships should not be modeled after unhealthy or abusive ones. In contrast, the relationship between Gomez and Morticia Adams, two characters from the Addams Family franchise, is often depicted as loving and supportive. While Gomez and Morticia have their share of differences and disagreements, they are ultimately committed to each other and work together as a team. Their relationship is characterized by mutual respect, trust, and communication, and they are shown to be supportive of each other’s goals and interests. They also demonstrate a strong commitment to their family and to their relationships with their children, and are shown to be loving and supportive parents. Unlike the Joker and Harley Quinn’s toxic dynamic, the relationship between Gomez and Morticia is based on healthy and positive communication and interactions. They are able to express their needs and desires to each other in a respectful and open manner, and are able to resolve conflicts in a constructive and positive way. It is also important to recognize that abusive relationships, like the one depicted between the Joker and Harley Quinn, can have serious and long-lasting consequences for the individuals involved. Abusive relationships can cause physical harm, emotional trauma, and psychological damage, and can have a negative impact on an individual’s overall well-being and sense of self-worth. Victims of abuse may experience feelings of fear, anxiety, and depression, and may struggle with self-esteem issues and difficulty trusting others. They may also have difficulty leaving the abusive relationship, either due to fear of the abuser or due to a lack of resources and support. It is crucial to remember that no one deserves to be mistreated or abused, and that there are resources available for individuals who are experiencing abuse or who are in an unhealthy or toxic relationship. If you or someone you know is in an abusive relationship, it is important to seek help and support from trusted friends, family, or professionals. In conclusion, the relationship between the Joker and Harley Quinn is widely considered to be toxic and unhealthy, and serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers and consequences of abusive relationships. In contrast, the loving and supportive relationship between Gomez and Morticia Adams represents the positive and healthy aspects of relationships and serves as a model for healthy and positive interactions and communication. 02 February 2023 Ark Survival Evolved is getting Remastered! 04 January 2023 Gamers File Lawsuit to Halt Microsoft’s proposed acquisition of Activision Blizzard 04 January 2023 The Joker and Harley VS Gomez and Morticia 04 January 2023 Hogwarts Legacy Update 04 January 2023 E3 is Back this Year: What we Know so Far. 03 January 2023 World of Warcraft: Dragonflight 03 January 2023 Hogwarts Legacy and a Feeble Attempt to Cancel What Could Be the Biggest Game of the Year. 30 December 2022 Cocaine Bear: The True Story of a Drug Addled Woodland Creature – Coming to a Theatre Near You! 30 December 2022 Rimworld – Colony Management; Your way.

Okay, so maybe it’s not a completely true story but Cocaine Bear the movie is based on a set of events that may surprise you. Unless you live around the Georgia—Tennessee border, where Pablo Escobear (As hes fondly referred to) is a bit of a local legend, if not just an urban one. Cocaine Bear: The Movie is the latest must-see blockbuster that has everyone talking, and for good reason. Based on the true story of a bear that accidentally ingested a large amount of cocaine and went on a rampage through the Appalachian Mountains, it’s a film that has it all: excitement, action, depth, and substance. Illegal ones… The true story behind Cocaine Bear is just as wild as the film itself. In 1985, a drug trafficking operation went awry in the Appalachian Mountains, causing a package of cocaine to fall from a plane and land in the woods. A curious bear stumbled upon the package and, not realizing the danger, began to eat the cocaine. The bear became agitated and disoriented, and began to roam the woods in search of more drugs. This is where the film picks up, following the bear as it embarks on a wild and action-packed rampage through the Appalachian Mountains. The bear becomes a media sensation, with people from all over the country flocking to the woods to catch a glimpse of the “cocaine bear.” The film does an excellent job of bringing this unbelievable true story to life, with top-notch acting, excellent special effects, and masterful action scenes that will keep you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. But Cocaine Bear: The Movie is more than just an action-packed thrill ride. It’s a film with depth and substance, tackling important themes such as the consequences of drug use and the dangers of the illegal drug trade. The film doesn’t shy away from the dark and violent aspects of the story, but it also manages to find moments of humor and levity that keep the film from becoming too heavy or depressing. Overall, Cocaine Bear: The Movie is a must-see film that is sure to leave a lasting impression. With its thrilling plot, excellent action scenes, and well, a murderous rampage of a cocaine fueled bear of course; it’s a film that has something for everyone. Whether you’re a fan of action, drama, or true crime, you won’t want to miss out on this exciting and entertaining movie experience. So, it is completely worth your time and money to watch this movie. While the movie bear no-doubtedly has a great old time of murdering locals and causing general havoc in the film, the real cocaine bear, after finding and consuming several million dollars of cocaine, as expected, died. The upside is his body was preserved and can be found on display at the Kentucky Fun Mall in Lexington, where you can find Cocaine Bear themed merch like T-shirts, keychains and snow globes, which are aptly named ‘blow globes”. 02 February 2023 Ark Survival Evolved is getting Remastered! 04 January 2023 Gamers File Lawsuit to Halt Microsoft’s proposed acquisition of Activision Blizzard 04 January 2023 The Joker and Harley VS Gomez and Morticia 04 January 2023 Hogwarts Legacy Update 04 January 2023 E3 is Back this Year: What we Know so Far. 03 January 2023 World of Warcraft: Dragonflight 03 January 2023 Hogwarts Legacy and a Feeble Attempt to Cancel What Could Be the Biggest Game of the Year. 30 December 2022 Cocaine Bear: The True Story of a Drug Addled Woodland Creature – Coming to a Theatre Near You! 30 December 2022 Rimworld – Colony Management; Your way.
