Say only the manchildren. It's a Graphic Novel Movie if that makes it clearer to you. Personally, I'm always grateful for the tiniest bit of substance in the silly superhero genre. "It’s a marketing term. I mean, it was one that I never had any sympathy with. The term “comic” does just as well for me." - Alan Moore on "graphic novels" |

Try to work on the relevance of argument next time.

The relevance is that if Alan Moore thinks its silly to go with the term "graphic novel" just because someone is ashamed of comics, then it's pretty darn silly and said person should get over themselves. |

This is beside the point though, and you even misrepresent the quote. Moore said that he does not like the term because it's a marketing trick for companies: "...they’d stick six issues of whatever worthless piece of crap they happened to be publishing lately under a glossy cover and call it The She-Hulk Graphic Novel, you know?” Now, I'm sure Marvel comics quality lacks and they are somehow ashamed of their comics (I do not waste time on crap tbh), but I give little about Moore's personal opinion on semantics, especially when they are thematically irrelevant.
Moviebuffbrat and you failed on both levels, but you succeeded to waste my time.

So then why should we give any thought to yours, when you're so below him? |

Calm down old man, you're going to give yourself skin failure. |

It was bad, but not the worst CBM ever.

I really feel like this movie gets way too much love. Justice League was a billion times better and still managed to be the absolute worst thing Joss Whedon has put his name on. THIS THREAD is the worst attempt at TROLL of all time! |
