Everything is under control

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.


Temporary Change: To reduce the strain on Dreamwidth's servers new entries will go up when a post reaches 3,000. Please refrain from spamming so we can stretch these entries for a little longer. We don't need several threads soliciting photo evidence of body parts, and we already know that we only care about yaoi. Failure to comply will only result in deletions and butthurt. "People may notice site slowdown/cache error pages. We're working on fixing. You can help: finish posts at 3k comments, not 5k or more." - Dreamwidth@Twitter

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.


Concerns?

Hey! Do not post anything outside of these threads. It will be deleted.
Go be cute and fun and fun and funny over here.

I know it's childish to dislike a continuity just for the fact of its existence, but ....I do partially dislike it just for that.

There were some stories that I was following that were suddenly given rushed endings because of the reboot ... Aaand of course my favorite character is the Joker. He never got the chance to regain footing after the Morrison arc and I'm not entirely fond of the direction DC is taking him in with the reboot. He's been gone for months now so I'm still giving it a chance, but....so far.... Remember when Joker was kind of fey and funny? They're just focused on making him edgy now. I find that disappointing.

They seem to swing back and forth with him between THE DARKER THE BETTER LOOK AT HOW EDGY THIS FUCKER IS and, well, genuinely good.

You can't just make the Joker do any kind of sadistic shit you want. That's not what makes him scary.

I'm guessing it'll depend on the book. If he's getting written primarily by Daniel, then god help us.

Daniel, for the reboot, says his Joker is a mixture of his own take, Morrison's take, and classical but I haven't seen much "classical" yet.

Like I said, though, he hasn't been around too much so I'll give the reboot a chance to develop the character a bit.
