But he wouldn't have anything to complain about if he did that. And people who insist on spending every waking hour they have to complain about something are not only pathetic (in this humble Death Lord's opinion) but they're also a drag. They lower the tone by trying their level best to rob genuine fans of any enthusiasm or anticipation they may have for what they truly enjoy. Misery loves company and if it doesn't have any, it'll make some.so very true. That must be why since your recent registration on 10th October this month you have already produced an incredible number of threads (21), half of which preoccupied with complaining and trolling about unpublished X-Men and DCEU movies. You share that trait with your raptor friend who loves to bully these very boards. A dream team of misery indeed. Hypocrisy united! The glass pot is calling the kettle black while throwing infinity stones.

I can own my nonsense, can you or any of the other learnerd men in your confederacy? Can't touch nerve where there is only bone. Hee hee hee...

Come on guys/gals! Why can't we be friends? Why can't we be friends? Well, the fighting began in 2008 shortly before the release of The Dark Knight. MCU fans were on a high after the release of Iron Man so MCU fans started flooding The Dark Knight boards on IMDb with threads about how The Dark Knight was going to be a huge flop. Then when The Dark Knight starting breaking all kinds of box office records, MCU fans got jealous and started attacking DC fans. That's how the fighting started.
And when Heath Ledger won the Oscar in 2009, MCU fans went ballistic. MCU fans started making all kinds of excuses and tried to exploit Ledger's death by claiming that the Academy awarded him the Oscar out of pity. That was also probably when formersamhmd came up with his lame "artificial boosters" excuse that he continues to use to this day to exploit the death of a young man.
I remember it the opposite way. Marvel fans were too busy being excited about the post credits "Avengers initiative" to bother attacking TDK too much. Then TDK came out and DC fans felt the need to spoil the Marvel party and rub the fans noses in TDK box office and how it "transcended the genre" (i.e. ashamed to be a comic book movie). Actually I think it's more Batman fans than DC fans. Most Batman fans really only care about him. The only use they have for other DC character is to have them around to be written as idiots to make Batman look cooler. Batman fans especially hate Superman. Since Supes is my favorite DC character I don't have much use for Batman fans. (Batman can defeat Superman? Most ridiculous claim in comics history) Remember when TDK was supposed to change the way SH movies were made? Batman fans wouldn't shut up about that one. It didn't turn out that way. Instead it was Iron Man that changed how SH movies were made. The last thing that was supposed to happen was DC jumping on the shared universe bandwagon. SH movies were supposed to get all "dark" and avoid being in the SH genre at all costs. So in the intervening years DC fans have gotten more and more bitter as Marvel reinvented the genre. Batman was supposed to set the world in order with TDKR but of course Avengers was the story that year as it cemented the change in the genre. It wasn't taken well when Avengers outgrossed TDK either. That was some kind of tipping point with DC fans. That's when they started sending death threats to critics. And of course they got so paranoid that they started claiming Disney was paying critics to give bad reviews to DC movies and that Rotten Tomatoes was against them. (never mind that WB owned RT at the time) It reached a level of hysteria where DC fans started formulating several talking points about Marvel movies that make no sense. " No stakes". This is a good one. Supposed Marvel is the only one that doesn't kill its heroes. Coulson coming back to life was seen as the ultimate sin. I guess we are supposed to forget Batman's fake "death" in TDKR. But of course it's ok when DC does it. Fake complaint. Almost no one kills the hero at the end. Batman, Superman (yeah...he came back to life too), and Wonder Woman are going to live through the JL movie. Spoiler alert. But that won't be "no stakes" because it's a DC movie. " Bad villains". Another whopper. Supposedly Marvel doesn't have any good villains. We aren't supposed to notice Lex Luthor, Doomsday, Ares, Enchantress, and Zod I guess. Great villains have never been a big deal in movies anyway so it's another fake complaint. Marvel had the two best villains in this year's SH movies anyway. Vulture and Ego were a mile better than Ares and whoever that guy was in Logan. (yeah...it really hurt Logan that the villain wasn't great, didn't it?) " Formula". The idea that every Marvel movie is exactly the same. O...kay.... So Guardians of the Galaxy, Ant-Man, Avengers, and Winter Soldier are just alike, eh? Wow... Those just get repeated over and over. It's possible some DC fans might actually believe some of it. I mean...if anyone can find this kind of absurdity from Marvel fans directed at DC movies, I would love to hear about. From what I've seen, Marvel fans just snicker at the critical failures of the DCU so far. Maybe Marvel fans would be that crazy if their movies were critical failures while DC movies were enjoying a period of genre changing critical prosperity. But there is nothing like the Batman fanbase in Marvel. The Spider-Man fans don't insist that he can defeat all the other Marvel characters and don't need writers to make the other characters stupid so he can shine.

I remember it the opposite way. Nope, it was definitely MCU fans that attacked DC fans first. Then MCU fans also went on to attack X-Men fans and the Sony Spider-Man fans.

I'm sure that sounds right in your head. But no fan base is as crazy as the Batman/DC fan base over the past few years. There is a serious level of paranoia going on there. God help us if JL doesn't get good reviews.

We will get no less then three year's worth of butthurt and consternation from DCEU fans if this happens. If their flagship product isn't entirely above reproach in every category, we'll never hear the end of it. It will be so bad that I'm willing to take a knee and pray, to a deity whom I seriously doubt the existence of, to ensure that JL is nothing less than a colossal hit both financially and critically. If there is one thing worse than a DCEU fan's bragging, it's their whining. Either way, we're in for a long winter. Hee hee hee...

Even if that true, is it really necessarily to keep it going, especially since it's been nearly a decade? As someone who was a regular on the Spider-Man 3 board, I've had some nasty run in with both X-Men fans and Batman/Superman fans. But I'm not constantly fighting with them on this board or even insulting people. I'm not asking you guys to like each other films or TV shows, but let's work together to rid the toxic atmosphere. Or am I asking for too much?

I'm not fighting with anyone. I'm setting the record straight because Tristan's trying to revise history. Also, I've NEVER seen Tristan in ANY of the MCU-related boards when IMDb still had message boards.

That's why he trolls these boards and stalks me.

Ask the DC fans and the FoX-Men fans, they threw the first punch. Not really. Inhumans. Only Fox-Men suckers like The Gifted.

Speaking the truth doesn’t make me an idiot. You do seem to have a problem when people prefer a non-Marvel product over a MCU one.

Everyone needs to calm down.
Explain your previous grudges in a civil way and try to finally come to terms with one another so the constant bickering can stop. If this is going to be another thread where people just claw at each others throats then I'll have no choice but to lock it.
What other fans may or may not have started almost a decade ago should have nothing to do with how you guys treat each other now.

Nothing is going to be resolved here. No one is going to change their opinion or their behavior. This board is dying. There is no growth here and people who do want rational discussion are leaving.

Let's demonstrate this, shall we? I said: and I then further said: So, what has me not being involved in MCU matters on IMDb to do with anything...? Thus, per usual it's a non sequitur. You see, as predicted, your years of IMDb ratings-trolling/pissing did not bear well for your debating skills. Surely, you can do better than that?

Lol not even formersamhmd denies that was an unprovoke attack towards fans. That came YEARS after the nonstop assault XCU fans have been throwing at the MCU right from its' birth.
