Just read Immortal Hulk and holy shit one of the best comics of all time. Never thought anyone could get me to give a damn about the Hulk but here we are. Anyhow partner (and I tangentially) has been working on a Joe/Bruce and Peter fic about them ending up on the run together. Peter's really confused why his travel partner keeps gaining and losing an accent.

why are so many comic book fans incapable of selectively ignoring canon. “yeah that character’s great but remember when they—” no i don’t. i didn’t like it and therefore it didn’t happen.

A little late posting this, but Hani Almadhoun has posted the weekly update on the Gaza Soup Kitchen fundraiser page!

They're operating pop-up kitchens, delivering food and medicine to medical posts, and running water trucks wherever they can.

You should read about the good they're doing and donate if you can!

I may be deeply disillusioned with marvel but I will be a hulkhead for life. Gotta love that big green guy. Hulk smash and whatnot. And of course there's the sadness

I love older comics because a guy will be saying "Bruce, the Hulk wasn't created by the gamma blast, you actually have Dissociative Identity Disorder due to your father's severe abuse of you and your mother," and this is the guy:

nosferatu (2024) is so fucking funny. they did this joke twice

Can I just say how mad the Nosferatu controversy has made me?

Like I’m not really talking about people who didn’t realise they were walking into an art horror movie and got whiplash, I mean the entire misunderstanding of the themes of sexuality in the movie. Like, why are so many audiences assuming that sexual themes can only exist for their personal gratification, and either, from that, A) getting mad that they don’t find the movie sexually appealing, or B) completely misunderstanding the work and romanticising and sexualising it in ways that completely juxtapose the intent of the director?

I’ve seen so many people either getting so mad that the movie ‘made them uncomfortable’ or that the Count was an ugly corpse with no capacity to love, (the intent of the ORIGINAL novel, by God above 1992 Dracula has fucked with some people’s brains), or completely romanticising his relationship with Ellen and mischaracterising it as some forbidden monster romance.

Like, I know this was a thing with Dracula as a whole, right? I’ve been around in this space for ages, of course I’ve seen it, but to be honest it’s never really bothered me too much because I always assumed it was just out of complete ignorance. But if you watched the 2024 Nosferatu and somehow left the theatre thinking you saw the new Coppola’s Dracula, I genuinely don’t know what to tell you.

Just because a movie prominently features sexuality doesn’t make it porn. The mention of sex doesn’t solely exist for your personal gratification. Sex and sexuality are complex and normal human subjects that deserve to be explored in media.

Nosferatu (2024) is a horror movie.
