You're all idiots except for me

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.

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.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.

Yeah yeah, whatever, MRAs were mad, but setting their butthurt baby tantrums aside, the film on its own merits makes Age of Ultron almost embarrassing in hindsight. It was that good.

Have to disagree. I thought both of them were bland, utterly lacking character development, overhyped big long action scenes, short on writing and long on fX. I was highly disappointed.

well I mean. Isn't that what the original Mad Max was, too? Seems like a canon that's always focused more on action and effects than plot and character.

"utterly lacking character development" confirmed for either not watching the film or the sort of viewer that needs to be told everything and is utterly incapable of reading what's shown without dialog or exposition.

or wanting more than one long action scene and thinking there was room for a lot more than what they did. but you keep trucking with the butthurt that somebody disagrees with your opinion.

but you said it was utterly lacking in character development, which is entirely untrue, or did you just fall asleep during every scene Nux was in? Like that one wasn't even subtle. He goes from fanatic Joe worshiper like the other Warboys and then decides he wants to find his own destiny/hope. They were beating you over the fucking head with it.

If you find the frenetic pace of the movie tiring, that's one thing, but if you seriously think there was no character development, then you literally didn't watch the fucking movie.

it's not a matter of opinion. you're objectively wrong if you think it had no character development. if you didn't like the character development or thought it was done poorly, that's a criticism worth discussing, but if you think it just wasn't there, then you are basically holding up a sign that says "I didn't see this movie, I'm just making assumptions based on its genre"

Seriously.

Nux (especially), Furiosa, and even Max had shifts by the end of the movie. Even Cheedo the Fragile had character development. Even The Dag showed promise of starting a new lifestyle when she met up with granny (I'mma just call her granny) at the ex-Green Place. Like not every character has to do a 180 from their original appearance in a two hour movie, but they did pretty damn well.

It's one thing to complain about poor development if you think they didn't show it well, but it's an actual fact there were multiple characters that had development throughout the movie. wth
