It's just a feeling I have, but I meet all the qualifications for meeting none of the qualifications for being basically a Batman character IRL. I'm some dude with an uninterestingly normal amount of money and trauma, I'm unemployed, and I don't really do anything unusual or have any weird desires. I can remember the plots of movies really well, and I have perfect pitch, but I don't think there's a corresponding Batman character for that. I guess I could shoehorn my life into being the Riddler since I'm getting into game dev but it feels like a reach.
What do you think? Should I embrace the life of nothing in particular? I need advice, I keep seeing y'all find your true callings as Batman rogues on this sub but I just don't think I'm cut out for it.
I’m just crazy. Absolutely bonkers, bananas even. What can I do? Go about my life as some crazy banana man?
I'm 26
Ive randomly started developing a high British accent (I'm from Iowa)
All I can think about day in and day out is service and child rearing.
You get it..
I’m 34 years old so roughly the same age and have the beer gut for it so peak human shape.
I love all types of condiments
I’ve always had a strong connection with condiments especially ranch. It’s my favorite.
I’ve always known what condiments to pair with junk food. People always come to me first and half the time I’m right.
I know self defense as I carry del inferno and fire sauce packets just in case someone wants to really get nuts. Nothing personnel.
I can tell the difference between ketchup and catsup with just a mere sniff.
I have the IQ as I was able to graduate high school without honors. So peak level intellect.
I actually know how to pronounce Worcestershire sauce. (I bet you didn’t even know how to spell it)
I’ve seen enough YouTube videos to make my own tank and gun to shoot ketchup and mustard at my enemies. (I have great shooting skills from all the hours of playing time crisis and house of the dead)
I relish the idea of being the condiment king. I don’t think anyone else can cut the mustard as I can.
Im only 35 and think I have a lot of qualities that are making me like the character Bane.
Qualities:
My dad is in jail
I often find myself drawn to luchador masks
I’ve gotten into 3 fights in the last week
I’ve always been very drawn to Mexican culture and hope to meet one some day
I can’t stand bats
I got absolutely folded by a French guy I made fun of
My life is a prison
Nobody cared who I was until I put on the mask (I haven’t put on the mask yet)
I weigh 350 pounds
Any suggestions on what else I need to become Bane? I feel like I’m practically there.
I’m 20 years old and I think I am the scarecrow. I believe I have all the attributes:
I’ve always been addicted to scaring people, I would always scare my little brother by screaming BOO at him
I have a laced vape and every time I hit it I get scared I’m worried this is my own version of fear toxin
I live on a farm and purposely wear a scarecrow outfit to scare any birds that come around
I’m really smart, my IQ is nearly 100 and I have been called a genius by my parents
My favorite construction vehicle is a crane just like scarecrows real name (Johnathon Crane)
I’ve always wanted to work at a haunted house to scare people
My favorite color is beige
What do you guys think? Should I embrace my terrifying existence and become a villain?
hey guys im 19 years old and i think im going to become clock king... its really fucking scaring me and I dont know what to do. im getting really obsessed with clocks and telling people what time it is and i feel control slipping from myself every day.
reasons:
i always wear watches
whenever people ask me what time it is im almost always right
i have his same backstory (disabled sister and i wear glasses)
ive been finding myself staring at my watch a lot lately... almost becoming obsessed with time
whenever my boss tells me to go on break i always count to the exact time my break ends but i sometimes stay one minute over and im worried its me becoming evil
i draw on my glasses
i can almost always pinpoint exactly when the bus is going to come but its almost always late (im thinking this might be my villain origin story)
i have almost the same IQ as an adult at just 19
i have taken apart and reassembled over seven watches
i really like telling the time with my eyes closed (over 72 non consecutive minutes told correctly)
any advice on becoming clock king? should i embrace my evil side and say f*ck it and be evil? thanks
I’m 21 and I’m worried I’m becoming the riddler because I can’t stop fooling people with my riddles and I'm worried it’s going to get out of control. Here’s my reasons:
I only dress in green, usually a suit
I have a strong inclination to make people solve riddles
I like the color green
I write a diary
My upbringing was the same as the riddler
I like solving questions and riddles (167 is my record so far)
I like question marks
I took accounting in college
I keep leaving riddles for my boss to find and he hasn’t figured out it’s me
I sent the police a riddle and it made the local news
I can solve any riddle in under 5 seconds
I don’t know why, but I have never told a single lie since I was 10
My IQ is 153
I really like this show, however, I have to admit - it feels like a show created by a bunch of adults out of nostalgia for their childhood, who have since then lost the joy of being alive, and forgotten the magic and the terror and adventure of childhood.
Not sure if that resonates with anyone else.
I'm still a huge fan of the show overall but it misses the following aspects of BTAS that make it a classic of animation to this day:
fear (and i mean instinctual terror, from a kid's perspective - of the world around them, be that adults in positions of power like scientists, lawyers, businessmen; or people they come face to face with on the street level that terrify them without being told)
fun
sexiness (and I'm not talking about being "horny-forward" or whatever the new lingo is - ugggh)
a sense of movement
adventure (this show seems more ponderous and painful as if the adults writing the show projected their own discomfort and pain from aging and poor health onto the characters)
Overall it's a good show, and an intriguing one - but unlike the original Detective and Batman Comics, which were actually APPEALING to kids in the 30s and 40s, this show seems like it's written (oerhaps unconsciously) FOR adults who think they MAY still have a litte bit of the childhood they remember tucked away inside them.
It's not a show most kids would get excited about or want to get a coloring book from, let alone play a video game or or collect its Kenner action figure line.
P
The penguin is supposed to be some nasty decrepit crime boss, like Danny davito's penguin was perfect. I don't like this one (and no, it's not just because she's a woman)
Honestly when I’m as watching the first episode I was worried what they were going to do to characters liek the penguin because typically when you do a gender swap you either don’t change anything else or you destroy the character, I feel like they actually did a good job with the penguin and I liked her character and I liked the female detective I just didn’t like how it felt like they only focused on her and Barbra it felt like it was a show with Batman not a Batman show and one of my main gripes and I feel like bad swaps/ideas is that they decided to Harley quin and merge her with the joker and that it just wasn’t good I wish they just did a new character insted of trying to do a weird merge of the two and make it so the joker actually is a kind of good guy in a sense since it’s only bad men that get punished which I thought was dumb since it was supposed to also be the joker also the butchers Harvey and that was stupid and it felt like so they could have a stereotypical white straight asshole where Harvey’s a great white night turned bad character and making him a sleez ball from the get go have me a sour taste I think that they’re were a lot of new or changed characters handled well but at the same time may of the institutional characters where just butchers and again it felt like a story with Batman not about Batman
Just finished the season. Loved the voice cast, and loved the fresh spin on characters, particularly Harley Quinn (loved the new costume).
Appreciated the rogue's gallery in the season, but found the final tease a bit tiresome, that character needs a lengthy break...
I dug the animation too, though I do miss the texture TAS had in its animation.
The only thing I'd say is is 10 episodes is very short. TV these days takes over a year, sometimes two, to get a new season out, so 10 episodes was a bit of a bummer, I'd easily have watched 5 more.
I'd love to see their spin on Mr. Freeze, Poison Ivy & the Ventriloquist and get Robin in there in S2.
I know Batman was in the PTO at Damien but was he in the PTO for Dick Jason and Tim?
And if he did I think everyone in the PTO though out the years would judge him in different ways.
Like when he first got Dick he joined the PTO. every PTO mom though Dick was Bruce's bio kid and when ever someone asked Dick he said he is my dad just to get under Bruce's skin every one thought Bruce was a teen dad.
When he got Jason in school he stressed that he was adopted. So every PTO mom thought he was a hero for adopting a poor kid from crime alley.
With Tim every mom thought Bruce was holding him back because he's a genius and he wasn't any clubs or after school classes. He was to busy being robin.
Two things he could do in his first real appearance is:
Poison beauty products like in Batman '89
Poison Gotham's water supply like in The Man Who Laughs
Or even something entirely different.
What do you think?
like where did that even come from 😭😭? even the music was confused lmaooo. any thoughts on this? because i can’t exactly come up with anything besides bruce being mean to harvey, or maybe there’s some foreshadowing??
I feel like Clock King would work well within the show, with a very similar design to Brave and the Bold. Keeping in theme of the villains transformations/reasons for villainy being their own selfishness, they could rework the original backstory so his sister died because of him, yet he blamed anyone else but himself, turning to crime to get back at "the system that failed him."
