Title speaks for itself. Dude totally gets it.

Having a preference for darker material does not make you an edgelord or emo.

If you prefer lighter stuff that’s fine but don’t ever call me or anyone else an edgelord because we like things that have a darker tone. Also don’t expect me to hold back calling you a bunch of overgrown 3 year olds because I’m getting sick of that shit.

My reaction when someone says Superman and Batman stopped fighting in BvS because their mothers shared the same name

My take on why fandoms are getting worse.

Person A: Despite what other people say, I love this game/movie/tv show/book/etc.

Person B: You’re the worst person alive and I hope you kill yourself.

Person A: Why is it a problem that I enjoy something that you don’t?

Person B: Because I can’t possibly live on with my life unless everyone thinks the same way as me even though what you do has no direct consequence on what I enjoy. Again kill yourself.

You know if you like a film, game, tv show, whatever it is you enjoy you are in no way obligated to say “I know it’s flawed but,” because 

A. Everything has flaws if you look hard enough or just nitpicky.

B. It only gives more power to the haters which leads into dumb responses of “Oh we have an apologist/a person who’s clearly in denial”

Fuck that shit

I am officially sick of hearing “X is bad because it’s too dark and edgy” because I find that to be stupid; mostly due to people over exaggerating the tone itself. The thing that people need to understand is that not every video game, movie, tv show etc., has to be confined in a world of sunshine, lollipops and rainbows and shit all the time. It’s not going to kill anyone if we have some tonal variety within our media. 

Just because people prefer something with a serious tone does not make them “preteens trying to be grown up or fit in with the cool kids”. It would be like calling people who prefer lighter material: “a bunch of adult children who refuses to grow up and fosters the mentality of a 2 year old infant who never learned how to properly use a bathroom”. Both of these mindsets aren’t helping anyone. Also it is possible to want both. You can prefer dark material, yet still enjoy lighter stuff and vice versa.

And if having a charcter or storyline take itself seriously “too edgy” for you, do me a favor; go to something that fit your tonal tastes, enjoy yourself and please for the love of god, do not use it to attack something that dares to exist outside the lighthearted/non-serious tone because I’m getting sick of that bullshit as well.

Raise your hand if you want the current DCEU to live on with it’s own identity that isn’t “Marvel-lite”

Is it weird that I love the theatrical release of Justice League but still want a Zack Snyder cut because I can see how, some scenes and characters like Iris West got cut out, WB screwed with the film (for the 3rd time) and pissed that they’re throwing Zack under the bus to save their own asses?
