I liked spiderman and batman and superman as a kid, but it was only about liking their movies. I liked teen titans on comedy central and I thought cyborg and some others were cool characters, but I never cared about them in a show/actor agnostic way.


That's carried forward. There are good super hero movies, but I couldn't care less about these connected universes they keep pushing. Maybe that's why Iron Man, Wonder Woman, Suicide Squad, etc. are all the better ones imo. More stand alone.

I might have to bite the bullet and pay a dollar to try it out. I doubt it could handle any of my niches.

There's this YouTube channel that's very popular, and does (I would call them) gaming conversations. I've seen like 3 or 4 videos of his, and I find them kind of grating. The videos that I've watched have all felt like - someone who knows a little bit about gaming but not very much.

Like I find this kind of cringey:


I didn't watch all, but I get that. Very newb.

I hope I don't sound too stupid asking, but can any of you guys understand this tweet? What rule is he supposedly breaking? I'm too in the weeds, it just looks like a normal screenshot during development. Best I can guess is that people think the train should normally be modeled outside the camera frustum?
Probably that you don't need to build a scene completely if you just get the right angles or something

Off-Topic Community / Marvel vs DC thoughts
Last post by the-pi-guy - Yesterday at 06:36 PM
I mostly grew up with DC (Justice League, Batman Arkham games, Dark Knight series, Smallville), but Marvel has had a much better run on the movie side in recent times.  It was never a huge part of my life, but I have a lot more fondness for DC to this day.  


I've seen the sentiment that Marvel is about humans trying to be gods, while DC is about gods trying to be human. And I think that's a little too general. Like Thor is literally a Norse God.  

I do think that more of the superheroes in Marvel tend to have a radiation/chemical based origin, whereas DC has a lot of heroes where they're just born that way.  But there are exceptions - Thor on Marvel's side, Flash on DC's side are obvious ones.

It didn't look great in trailers so is this fixing things or making them worse? Hmm.
