godspell

Lamby @momoichi i like that they gave riddler a ted kazinsky vibe, but idk about the yandere thing

Lamby @momoichi also, not a fan of him being a pseudo batman, i prefer him being a reclusive nerd that wants friends but cant make human connections, so he projects his favorite things, riddles/puzzles, onto others

godspell @godspell No I think he was perfect. He didn't care about being Bruce Wayne at all. He was a recluse no one watches. He believes he should be batman and that should be his legacy. All his anger and trauma all focus on all of his actions. He was prefect. That's how the first two years of batman were full of anger and no restraint.

godspell @godspell I was fine with that for riddler. Because this is a realistic world. Though obsession of becoming a somebody a focal point of attention made sense. He wanted everyone to know who he is. He was trying to connect with batman because he could solve his riddlers. He became instant friends with Joker just because of Joker riddle.

godspell @godspell Cudos to Paul Dano for his acting. Because he showed he wasn't sure or was sure that batman was Bruce Wayne. So did you figure out the riddler plan like I did?

Lamby @momoichi hes not really a recluse, he had followers, which i also didnt like. joker had followers. i like riddler as a littlw dweeb that forces social interactions out of people on his own terms. i also loved penguine. danny devito left huuuuuge shoes to fill, and i was iffy at first, but he did it great. i also loved catwoman, but the whole "HES MY FATHER!' was cringey. her wanting to help her friend was good enough reason to let her struggle with wanting revenge. but holy shit. robert patterson was sooooooo baaaaaaaaaaaad. it was hilarious. i couldnt stop laughing whenever he was on screen. which sucks cause he was so hot with the black make up and outfits, but oh man he was just a rock. him and catwomen had 0 chemistry. she have a good performance, but he was a wet sock the entire time. 0 reason why she would be into him.

godspell @godspell Oh no the recluse was batman. I felt it was fine because the riddler having people appreciate his was fun to watch his appreciation for him. Also I was fine with catwoman and the father side plot that was building up to it. Because he did ruin her life strangling her mother. Him deserving to be robbed of his money (which she did steal) but im also tired of catwoman appearing in batman films.

godspell @godspell Robert Pattison performance wasn't bad at all. I'm quite tired of hearing that. Because this batman was different. He was chatty. He would actually talk to people instead of being a silent brooding figure. He was a detective and discussed/work with commissioner Gordon which no other film has portrayed. I do believe you're right there didn't feel any chemistry between batman and catwoman. Because I feel batman didn't feel like he deserved or needed a love one

Lamby @momoichi dude, batman literally yelled at alfred "YOUR NOT MY REAL DAD". if he was a teenager id understand, but he is a whole ass adult. and he gave 0 emotion. constantly, 0 emotion. he was a dick to alfred for no reason. they presumed so much about batmans character, for us to be like 'oh batman acts like this because i already know his story' but it didnt work. i dont know why hes an asshole to alfred. look at catwomen, she was an orphan too and didnt have all of his money, yet shes a more well rounded human being. even riddler has a better grip of maturity than batman did. he acted like an angry hormonal teen. the plot was stupid too, i liked that the waynes had some corruption within them, but the whole 'the murder was an inside job!' was cliche. i liked it just being a tragic accident that happened to two good people. a meaningless act of violence. why not? gotham is a cesspool. a mugging gone wrong is good enough reason for them to be murdered. also, why was he fighting crime if all he cared about was solving his parents murders? why was he at the scene of the crime of the riddlers first victim? i thought he only cared about his parents? the story doesnt even acknowledge what theyr trying to accomplish

godspell @godspell He slowly opened up in the series realizing the faults he has committed. In believing no one should be important to him. The only thing important to him in the beginning was being batman. He was grappling with the two identities he had. He saw what that can do. Because riddler let his other face. His true face take over his entire identity throwing it all away

Lamby @momoichi does he? from my memory when riddler brings up legitate critisizes with bruce wayne (what iv been sayin since forever!) bruce ignores it. 0 emotion from being called out for being a brooding manchild. just goes on to call him a failure. if he was lashing out from being insulted, i had 0 context to believe that. when your wearing a fuckin mask you have to emote harder. purse your lips, clench your jaw, swallow hard. i saw none of that. he just stared at him vacantly and then called him a failure. riddler tells him 'i was in an orphanage and my fingers got bitten by rats at night," and batman is legit like "your a failure i hate you," like holy shit dude chill, he just told you his life story and your gonna be a dick about it cause he called you privileged? just makes batman seem like more of a manchild.

Lamby @momoichi legitimate criticisms*

godspell @godspell True one can be angsty. But hes been back to gotham two years ago. He hasn't seen Alfred for years. Sure they can put why he was a dick to Alfred. But im like I don't need to see another origin happen again. Also he said it in the beginning that this is his plan to heal the city from crime. He documents every night he's been out. Of course he would be at the crime scene Gordon called in the bat signal because the letter was addressed to him. This was a deep case outlying the Wayne's corruption on how one man wanted to do right and wanted to protect his family turned to an evil man. Then get killed for it. He has to protect the city his family gave their lives for

Lamby @momoichi also, when its saying bruuuuuuuce waaaaayne i thought he was alluding to the fact that he knew he was bruce wayne. so when hes liek "I HATE BRUCE WAYNE and i wub you batman!" i was lost. there needed to be better context to show he had no idea why batman really was

godspell @godspell Because he already psycho analyzed him from their meeting. This guy is not well. He's seeking validation from batman. He wants him to tell him it's ok what he's doing he has reason to do so. He wants a friend to be alright with his actions. Because riddler never killed anyone. And he's killed four people already. One can even say these riddles are all methods for him wanting to be stopped.

godspell @godspell Of course he hates Bruce Wayne. The Wayne project was perverted and taken advantage of instead of helping the orphans. That was alluding to him trying Guage his reactions to see if he was correct that it is Bruce Wayne after piecing it together

Lamby @momoichi he had the angst of a teenage boy. again, he was a dick to alfred, why? because he wanted him to be responsible? when he sees the video of catwoman hes so happy he finally might have a friend xD and he seriously did the "YOUR NOT MY REAL DAD" like. come on. and again, why is he fighting crime when all he wanted to do was solve his parents crime? to add onto that, he built arkham asylum. he funds politicians like two face. WHY IS HE FINE WITH WAYNES ENTERPRISES GOING UNDER WHEN THATS THE MONEY HES USING TO SAVE GOTHAM! it makes no sense!!

godspell @godspell Wtf you mean he never was able to solve it. Alfred even said he wasn't sure either. That it could have been falcone or random fucking mugging. He never fucking did batman to solve his parent murder never even said it. Until he wanted to know the truth was falcone did it or not. Never answered since he died. Could never face trial. Also what do you mean Wayne enterprises going under. He doesn't care. All he wants to be is batman. After this movie he'll start to form his mask. Being Bruce Wayne and running the company as well. Because you already saw in the movie. Even if you have money try to fix the city like Bruce Wayne father. You're still fucked

Lamby @momoichi riddler is insane, yes, but the criticism was real. while riddler shivered cold in the winters, bruce was comfy and safe in his mansion, and yet he was all people cared for. this isnt the ramblings of a madman, this is logical thinking. and if we are to assume these are tha ramblings of a madman, why did batman lash out at him? call him a failure? thats doubley cruel. and the riddler did kill people. his first victim he bludgeons and then suffocates. i know why he hates bruce wayne, he is justified for that resentment. but there was 0 context to make us believe he was being like 'bruuucce waaaayne' as a way of hinting 'i know who you are' and why wouldnt riddler investigate who batman is? it wouldnt be hard to find out. hes clearly a genius

Lamby @momoichi what are you refering to "he never was able to solve it"? im not saying that he couldnt solve the murder, im saying if thats all he cared about, why did he help with petty crime to? apparently he cared so little about anything else that he was neglecting the family business, and his big lesson in the end of 'i was helping, just not how i intended uwu wevenge isnt the end up be all uwu" alludes to the fact that he only ever cared about solving their murder, but clearly his actions prove otherwise.

Lamby @momoichi HE SHOULD CARE IF WAYNES ENTERPRISE WENT UNDER! THATS MY POINT! how else does he fund projects like arkham! infact, is arkham even a state institution, or does he completely fund it?? and how does he expect to pay for his shiny toys and gadgets without mommy and daddys money?? him letting the business die literally makes NO sense

godspell @godspell I was at work ;.; I just tossed him money and said get what you want

Lamby @momoichi id say he spent it on bitches (heh, get it) but hes an old man. probz bought a 40 and is watchin the news.

godspell @godspell I think hes a mafia boss

Lamby @momoichi why do you think so? did he get into your spaggs? does he listen to frank sinatra when your out of the room? does he slip you 20s and say you didnt see nuttin?

godspell @godspell It feels like that's the case.

Lamby @momoichi why? he got a gang of other pompoms? my moms childhood cat was like that actually. when the cat would wanna go outside, she would open the door and see a bunch of cats standing in front of the door, and he would go off with them xD he was like the leader of some cat gang xD

godspell @godspell if only. He does rule the neighborhood

Lamby @momoichi how so? regale me of his antics

godspell @godspell well everyone always say hi to him. Dogs are always barking at him. And he disrespect him with pee

Lamby @momoichi you should give the neighborhood dogs mobster names, like two bone tony or tailwags-magie

godspell @godspell I should. What would you call a wiener dog

Lamby @momoichi hmmmm lanky legs larry.

godspell @godspell awww

Lamby @momoichi riiiiiight? we need to bring back giving people mafia nicknames

godspell @godspell Yeah especially those ironic mafia nicknames Tiny Tony but he's tall

Lamby @momoichi what would yours be? mine would be loose lips lamby, because i never spill my guts to the coppers when im pinched

godspell @godspell man im exhausted but going

godspell @godspell I sent you Lucas true form on discord

godspell @godspell None

Lamby @momoichi whore

godspell @godspell I'm trying damn it. I've been busy. My schedule has playing with dogs for 2 hrs and then work after laundry.

godspell @godspell I'll try reading at work

Lamby @momoichi chill it was a joke >w> i get your busy

godspell @godspell I am chill. It was in a calm joking tone. That really wants to read manga tbh

godspell @godspell I've read 15 chapters

Lamby @momoichi it doesnt get good til antarctic chapter (aka the sleepy arc) so dont judge it just yet

godspell @godspell It's very refreshing read. Even though each chapter the standard amount for some reason feels like I take so long on each chapter showing me these flawed beings

Lamby @momoichi its standard slice of life FOR NOW i swear it gets dramatic and the ending is the saddest iv experienced. the ending of shiga himes got nothing on this manga.

Lamby @momoichi tell me when you get meet the sea dudes. i wanna fun fact dump on you about the core of the manga!

godspell @godspell I havent met sea dudes. I've only been reading the changes of phos after replacing their legs. Also I appreciate the translator of the scans that the Japanese translation was using more masculine words or they/their pronouns

Lamby @momoichi wait, but she repairs her legs through the shell of the sea dude right? so youv met them?

godspell @godspell We're they guys. Ruler was a female like princess. Only her brother was male

Lamby @momoichi fun fact! the three types (moonies, gems, and seaple) are based off of buddhism! the moonies are the spirit, the gems the bone, and seaple the flesh! this manga was heeaavviillyyy influenced by buddhist beliefs!

godspell @godspell Yes I know. Ruler explained it.

Lamby @momoichi ah, fug. no fun >3<

Lamby @momoichi well, in that case the fun fact is that its based on buddhist belief!!

godspell @godspell I kinda figure because the father figure a monk so this is derived by some form of Buddhism. But my knowledge is limited

godspell @godspell Omg how did I not assume this one. OK ok I'll read it all in one night

Lamby @momoichi kukukukuuuu link me your manhuwa

godspell @godspell Read it on the webtoon app. It actually feels a lot better reading comments to be with you

godspell @godspell Plus the author adds music to scenes

Lamby @momoichi i aint got no webtoon app. only good webtoons were killing stalking and 100 days til this crocodile dies. ill google it if you cant get the link, whats the name again?

godspell @godspell The boxer manwha. Also if this is the only way to get you to read manwha. I might have to keep trading with you

Lamby @momoichi its literally called the boxer?

godspell @godspell yup

Lamby @momoichi weellll we only trade if i have a manga i really want you to read >W> i dislike the reading style and smooth art of manwha's. my adversion into toward the story, its just hard to ignore how shiny and smooth it looks, and i have to remember to read it left to right

godspell @godspell >.> fair enough but it's the way I'll read your manga now

Lamby @momoichi pft the guy finds a bloody kid on the street and his way of helping him is telling him the stars shine for him xD?? ask the kid where his parents are xD

godspell @godspell I think he has a good idea he doesn't have anyone

Lamby @momoichi the art is good though, i like the character designs, kinda remind me of a mix of boku no academia and haikyuu

godspell @godspell It is good. I need to read their other works. Because the author really stirs your emotions

Lamby @momoichi aye your right, great first chapter. i like that even though hes a prodigy, he still has things to learn and lost in the end. ill keep readin, thanks for the recommendation >w>/

godspell @godspell I do love the series. I really hope I can get you to read more of my favorite manga even a chapter or 2. I do think you'll like Learn how to fight because you can relate you want to help your mom financially from reading the series and how that desire evolves

Lamby @momoichi ill give most manga a try. manhwa? now that takes coercion >W> i have too many manga on my plate right now, but when im done with one we can trade recommendations again. i think ill wager run boys run

godspell @godspell Ok better read learn how to fight :o you should try one or 2 chapters

Lamby @momoichi nooooooooooooooot til im done with another manga. and im not gonna keep reading the boxer if you dont read houseki no kuni btw!

godspell @godspell I know. I said I'd read it tonight

Lamby @momoichi good goooood, gimme updates on how you like it. remember that it doesnt get really good til the antarctic arc. it starts out so sweet and innocent and ends so horrifically sad xD

godspell @godspell God I hope so. Last time I couldn't get pass one episode or chapter

Lamby @momoichi dude, thats the thing. houseki no kuni is my favorite manga, but i had to force myself to read it too. thats why you gotta trust me on this, forcing yourself to read is worth it for the early mid arc. from there is snowballs and gets better and better

godspell @godspell I will try

godspell @godspell Man sucks you're gonna move away btw instead of moving in with me

Lamby @momoichi nah your lucky. living with me is like living with a bridge troll. riddles and all

godspell @godspell Nah I like you too much to look past your faults and accept you as you are.
