Which was?
The first movie was about what a loser Arthur was.
This movie hammers in that he's a loser. Maybe people expected him to become le ebin Joker in this movie, even though the first movie was about showing him as a loser.
>>
>>11185205
He's not even THE Joker though, right? I mean, there's a scene with him and a young Bruce Wayne in the first movie.
>>
>>11185205
He was a loser who got revenge upon "society" and made an impact which is what the fanbase for the film loved about it.

I went grocery shopping earlier and checked the DC section. All that's left is a vampire Shazam, vampire Nightwing, Max Mercury and blue Wally Wests.
The Wally Wests were destroyed, like someone was pushing them aside to see if a Question was hidden there.
A Green Arrow that had been there for a while was gone.
I wonder if someone else who lurks here shops the same Walmart and was checking my hiding spot after I posted about stashing Question with the Wallys.

I was going to post my entire DC collection today but everyone is mass dumping their Joker figures so I'm going to wait a couple weeks for the market to stabilize
>>
>>11184716
>They sold enough that i never saw them clogging the stores like duke thomas
Duke was always going to be a peg warmer, toy collectors are racists as fuck which is why Super Powers Hal Jordan is being bid up routinely at over $50 per, even for a loose used toy, and mint on card copies of John Stewart can't be given away with free shipping.

So he's not a good example of how 'successful' Todd's tie-ins have been, given that Fury of the Gods also peg warmed, badly, as did Mamoaman II and Blue Beetle, all of which plus Black Adam, are just clogging up Ross and similar shelves.
>>
>>11185642
It's not that I'm racist I just don't like nigger characters and I do not want them on my shelf. Cyborg will be the only exception because he's a good character.
>>
>>11185097
>Are the rumors true
Yes. He is not even the Joker, the whole movie takes away "loser get enough and takes revenge on society" and turns into "he imagined most of what he did and will never not be a loser". There is some clear humiliating stuff, like every scene is made to make him look small, weak, effeminated. He kisses a guy, is called a virgin, probably gets raped etc, etc.

I usually don't buy conspiracies but this time is clear the people responsible for the first movie hated that so much people identified with the Joke and chose to show him as the worst possible failure in this one.

Also worst Harley Quinn in every aspect, specially design. I don't think many third parties will make figures of this movie like they did with the first one, any kind of magic is gone.
>>
>>11185727
It's just Todd Phillips doing what Todd Phillips does, and bitch about being forced to make a sequel he didn't want to make. It's nothing new, he did it with the Hangover Part III too.

Is the character named Joker in the movie Joker really a Joker???
>>
>>11185642
I always wonder why toy companies make so many General Lando and pregnant Spider-Woman figures when everyone knows they’ll clog shelves for eternity then make something like Question a rare one per case figure.
I know stores have to buy the whole case so it’s just toy companies padding out sales, but wouldn’t they make more money if they just released the less desirable characters as the rares?
I remember as a kid the movie version of Mary Jane was less common than Spidey and Green Goblin, obviously not everyone is gonna want MJ, but now a movie case would be four MJs, one Spidey, one Goblin.
>>
>>11185809
Oh yeah the musical aspect. There are actually fewer songs than I expected but all of them go from mediocre to awful. You can say what you want about Gaga but she has amazing vocal range, to waste her like that was a crime. I got the impression this movie was a vehicle for her getting another Oscar but I can see everybody gettting a Golden Raspberry instead.

>>11185841
Well, at least this version of the Joker. He becomes something at the end of the first movie that this second one completetly undoes. It would be like Tony Stark going back on saying "I'm Iron Man" in Iron Man 2 and the whole movie being about "who is the real Iron Man?" and the answer in the end is "nobody knows, but he's not Tony Stark".
>>
>>11185875
Is he even called Joker in the movie? No, it was marketing. Could have just as easily been that serial killer that dressed up as a clown. Really the only association you have to Batman is the Waynes.
>>
>>11185886
You know what it reminded me of that Marvel did way better imo? The Iron Man 3 Mandarin thing. And I'm not really an Iron Man 3 fan.

what does that have anything to do with joker? I guess joker from persona 5 is also joker too cause his name is joker. The joker movie was so far removed from the bat mythos that the only thing that made it a DC movie was by name only.
>>
>>11186023
The Joker movie took place in Gotham City, Arthur literally meets Bruce Wayne when he's a child. We see the murders of Thomas and Martha Wayne. Just admit you haven't watched the movie and shut your stupid mouth already.
>>
>>11185939

again all in name only, it still had nothing to do with batman or joker. All of these characters were nothing but their names, thomas wasnt thomas, joker wasnt joker, and without that gotham just becomes another chicago.

I'm sorry, but until you actually watch the film, your opinion is worth less than nothing, now shut up and talk about toys.

Will this stop anyone from ordering the Joker/Murray Diorama? I'm still probably going to get it since I'm capable of ignoring shitty movies I don't like.

There's one anon here with lifesize Bat cowls and piles of Batman figures who prides himself on being a loremaster. Also suspect that hoarder on youtube with one of everything Batman related ever posts about himself here, there's no way a sane person would act like a hysteric bitch and defend that kind of behavior but someone is still triggered by us laughing at his 'collection' like three weeks ago.

I could see people that having autistic meltdowns over Joker getting raped and just chimping out on their keyboards for days. I mean, it's not like they have any friends to laugh with at how stupid modern movies are, so of course they'd come here.

It's crazy that there are still DC fans who can be triggered into meltdowns in 2024.

We've seen Superman killing people by snapping their necks and destroying buildings. We've seen Batman drive his motorcycle through city streets in daylight letting the four side machine guns rip continuously. We've had the Rock play Black Adam.

But you're paying to go see a musical co-starring Lady Gaga and this was your breaking point? You're just now getting pissed?

>>11186205


McFarlane knew what they were doing by making it impossible to cancel preorders in their store.
>>
>>11185885
I mean both Black Panthers made money so people were interested in paying money to watch them. But many of the toys didn't sell, and by and large, that's partially on the toy companies since they had some ideas.

But the rest of that is just shitty business practices by the manufacturers. The last time I was at a GS, about a week ago, UPS actually walked in and delivered two cases of McFarlane products right when I was asking the clerk to look up if they had certain things. But she told me the store manager had to inspect the stock and put it out for sale so she couldn't let me look at the boxes.

>movie version of Mary Jane
Well, the NWH version of MJ and Matt also peg warmed badly, not really surprising since who wants a $20 figure of a blind lawyer as a toy? I mean someone at Sony and Marvel Studios probably pushed that onto Hasbro but instead of making six equal toys per case, they should have just made MJ and Matt into chases that might be in a case or might not, and instead you get extra Tobeys or extra Andrews. THAT would have made retailers that much happier all around.

But choices like that make too much sense for McFarlane and Hasbro both.

They're paid to promote that shit and say it's the greatest thing ever, even though it looks nothing like them.

Dumbass terminally online take. Actors largely don't know shit about toys or what high end ones should/could look like. They're normies with no clue basically. All they know is that there is now an action figure of them, and that's pretty cool no matter how mushy and inaccurate it is.
>>
>>11186284
it ain't that deep bro. just like you wouldn't say "this looks like shit" out loud when receiving a disappointing christmas gift, why would actors do that on camera? it's just performative politeness if nothing else, it costs nothing, and reacting in a disgusted or bitter way just makes you look like an asshole and will drive away your fanbase. only the most socially stunted kind of person would think "hurrr they aren't saying what they REALLY think about this shitty $20 action figure!"

I'm not saying nobody has ever done it. I'm saying it's a dumb thing to do, especially when your public image matters. Most people can politely just smile and say thank you, it was cool of you to make a toy of me, and move on with their lives. Most of them will probably never even see or think about said toy again.

Promotion parts of contracts are weird, especially riders like what actors will and won't do on promotions (like puppy interviews, or lie detector tests, or hot ones).

But the SW and Marvel Studios contracts have specific language about disparaging the movie (and 'it's related component aspects') - and generally 'related components' means things like the trailers or the posters, but it would also include tie-ins, like comic books (I know because the First Avengers comic books became a thing one time for the drawings and depictions of Captain Carter but more so Tommy Lee Jones' character) so it would also cover disparaging a toy in public.

Robert Patz got away with shitting on Twilight in promotional interviews because by then it was the second movie and preproduction had started on the last two movies, and they weren't going to recast him. And most people also took that as him hating to do the promotional parts, not that he really thought the movies were steaming piles of garbage.

But Marvel and Lucas have fines built in to their contracts, again, for refusing to do the promotion, but it wouldn't be a stretch to get a 'bill' from Disney for saying a piece of shit toy is fugly crap.

Again, it's the same shit with their movies, despite being shit movies, it's going to be how much they love their movie and the cast and crew became their new family.
Nothing but shit soccermoms want to hear, and apparently you.

Personally, i hate celebrity worship and the only time pay attention when they fuck up or are actually honest for a laugh.

If it's a proper iconic version I'll be getting at least three, regardless of the cost.
One as a shelf display, one to repaint with pearlescent white and metallic blues, and one for keeping mint so in ten or twenty years when my skills have improved I can add details like sculpted pudge where the boob meat squeezes through the window and airbrush subtle shading.
Todd can charge $30, $40, $100, I won't care. I piss that away on 40k minis and anime statues, if someone finally gets a Power Girl figure right I won't hesitate to go all in.
If it's the jacket version I won't buy any.

He's used that basketball texture on a couple figures. Honestly I could see him being a faggot and doing the jacket version first to string customers along until he releases a real version, but I'm not sure if the line's sales are strong enough to play games like that anymore. I'm hoping he needs money bad enough that he just makes what people want.

But as it stands there's still no announcement and stupid shit like >>11187023 is still getting released, so it appears he doesn't want to make money.

So many opportunities to go the extra mile and make it some kind of Corps upgrade pack but it's just a couple extra heads you can put on the multiples you have to buy of that figure. Lazy.

I imagine McFarlane Toys takes people straight out of collect with a barlike atmosphere with Todd walking around with no shoes on and the college kids partying and laughing in the halls, then when it comes time to put a figure together they just rush everything together for the "weird boomers that like these old 1970s characters"

I'm not even a Green Lantern fan, this is just basic stuff that comes to mind with a couple minutes of consideration. You're right, a lot of times it feels like nobody involved is thinking about what they're doing, like how card art doesn't match the actual figure.

At least include something like the Kingdom Come armor, like how Kyle Rayner came with samurai armor. That way Todd can add to the Kingdom Come set without having to gamble on releasing a solo figure.

>>
>>11187368
OK!

Prime Video, which is access to a library of movies, tv shows, and original content. Prime Music, which is streaming music with the ability to make playlists. Amazon Photos, which is unlimited online photo storage, and 5GB for video. Prime Reading, which is access to a rotating selection of eBooks, magazines, and comics (but maybe you wouldn't be interested in this one). Twitch Prime, which is free game loot and one free Twitch channel subscription per month. Prime Wardrobe, which lets you try on clothes before you buy and Amazon Fresh and Whole Foods discounts. So no, it's not just free shipping.
>>
>>11187376
Ah, so your solution to just paying $15 is to buy more stuff to get free shipping. Flawless logic.

You're an idiot. Amazon Prime is great if you buy heavy things and don't want to pay more for shipping than the actual item itself.

Remember that time we talked about Walmart exclusives and some anon says people legit work 40 hour jobs at Walmart just so they can buy toys before customers.
Some anons work hellish minimum wage jobs and probably can't afford Prime so they delude themselves into thinking their Walmart job is really some kind of covert toy spy operation and thinking they're a mastermind for spending $35 on Amazon to get free shipping.

For repeatedly abusing the free trial system they could. Read the ToS.
>>
>>11187472
They do not, nor would they, mention such a thing in their TOS, as it would suggest to such a user to try such a thing and see how much they could get away with. And certainly Amazon does not want to put those ideas in users' heads. They merely use the nebulous "We may terminate your Prime membership at our discretion without notice." which basically is a flat "we can fuck you in the ass all we want since we're a corporation" that's in all TOS.
>>
>>11187477
What else would lead to a termination of your Prime?
>>
>>11187499
Too many returns or illegitimate returns for sure. They definitely track that.
>>
>>11187502
They say no fraud or misusing the Prime membership, wouldn't repeatedly signing up for a free trial to get what you would normally have to pay for qualify as that?
>>
>>11187506

Anon wants to feel super special for gaming the system and being smarter than Amazon, just let him have this.
>>
>>11187506
Maybe or maybe not, you'd have to be the lawyer who wrote it to know if that was part of their intent with it.

I could see a lawyer not employed by Amazon argue it isn't though since they are freely offering you the trial without any demand that you pay for it or warning you have a limited number of trials before they will stop offering them, or some other repercussion. You are operating entirely under the offers they have extended to you and while the offers are an attempt by Amazon to show the worth of Prime and get you to pay, there is nothing saying you will be punished or that it is fraud or misuse to not pay for a sub after the free trial period.

Of course such a thing would never get to court because if someone at Amazon was monitoring your use of these trials, they'd just flip the "we reserve the right to fuck you over without explanation" button rather than telling you why they did it, as that is safer for them to do. Not sure what they would do, just never offer you another trial? If so that doesn't really matter. If they'd ban your account entirely that'd be a bigger issue for you.
>>
>>11187515
You JUST said they use the "We may terminate your Prime membership at our discretion without notice" thing to cover their ass there. Also, a trial period is not the full service really. It typically stops being free after a month and auto renews. That's... kinda what trial means.
>>

Part of DC action figures, a large part, especially, given that they do not have much posability or play value, is ordering them and thus collecting your teams. So it's quite relevant to strategize how to best ride Todd's Wild Ride we have been put on.

>>11187518
>warning you have a limited number of trials before they will stop offering them
This should really be includes, right. But reserving the right to cancel it at any time kinda also covers that I think. Is it technically fraud or misuse to take all the ketchup packets at a restaurant or something like that? And yes I know that's not exactly the best analogy as ketchup packets are finite and Amazon Prime trials are not.
>>
>>11187531
They probably aren't going to care about someone using free trials to order a couple figures a month. Likely they're looking for people using free trials to order thousands of dollars in shipping worth of products for their businesses and returning them if they don't sell within the 21 day window or something, like ordering food for a truck and returning it before it expires.
Either way, anon's entire perspective on Amazon is warped and schizo.

>>11187531

WAIT

Back to topic. Do any stores have a Limit 2 kinda thing on action figures? It would really cut down on scalpers.
>>
>>11187544
bbts often goes 1-2 and sometimes amazon limits to like 5. But it doesn't really work since scalpers have bots. And physical stores often dont stock more than like 5-6 of a single figure so the scalper just would need to go in, buy 2, come back and buy another 2 twice more at most to clear them out. Can't really stop the scalpers that easily, nor do stores really have an incentive to because a sale is a sale to them.
>>
>>11187544
Amazon is scalping preorders on figures right now. Low grade scalpers are the least of collectors' worries.
>>
>>11187520
>a trial period is not the full service really
There's a big difference between "trial period" and "we're not actually giving you Amazon Prime service for free despite calling it Amazon Prime and saying you're getting it free for 7 days"

There's probably a thousand litigious assholes using all the Amazon Prime trials to their fullest extent and the reason you don't hear them suing Amazon on the news for not delivering is because amazon is keeping their word on free Amazon Prime being Amazon Prime for free.
Obviously, Amazon doesn't offer free trials to the worst of them and the only lawsuits you hear about is where they're charging people for it in underhanded ways.

>>11187531
ketchup analogy doesn't work because Amazon is personally offering you the free trials. They should be the ones keeping track of it, not you.

I don't get it. Burger King is the one offering me ketchup packets and keeping them stocked.

>>
>>11187341

>>
>>11187615
Burger King can ask you to leave their property if you're abusing their self service.

Nothing amazon does is self service. It's all directly done from them to you and they have full control over it. Everything action you do is something they're letting you do.

To be fair, that IS kinda how that version of the character looked.

Why didn't Todd make a megafig of actual Parallax while he was still doing new molds?

It would just be another Anti Monitor situation where people would be complaining that it was too small.

I can't believe I'm actually wading into this shit show just because the latest Simpsons still hasn't dropped onto pirate sites, but the Amazon Prime TOS actually cover this, because each account (meaning each email, credit card, person) is allowed one free trial per year. The few times I've wasted time signing up for Prime, which is usually around Thanksgiving for the holidays, that's how I've done it:

As any site that has those Idiot Tier "HOW TO GET AMAZON PRIME FOR FREE" stories will put it: 'The best part is, this isn’t only for new users – so long as you haven’t been a Prime member over the last 12 months, you can take advantage, meaning you can try the free trial out every single year.'

And yes, before some idiot chimes in, if you want to use multiple street address, and multiple email accounts and multiple credit cards, there's all sorts of ways around this and if you don't think Bezos doesn't have his cloud computer farms crunching data looking out for that shit and watching your accounts accordingly, then have at it, pal.

Antimonitor was one of the smallest megafigs because Todd was out of money by then. He went too big with Swamp Thing to push megafigs and then gradually kept making them smaller. He should've started with the largest characters if he was going to do it that way. But once again, McFarlane Toys has no planning

Um, anon, I've seen it offered to me multiple times a year. Not just once.

y eah, I've gotten free trials offered more than once a year and I'm not talking about the weekend/week long ones either, which are more abundantly offered.

Maybe has to do with the fact i used to be a prime member and they want me back? Who knows.

Season premiere was actually pretty decent. It's been having something of a renaissance.

Yes, yes, yes Slytherin. Well done.
Two anecdotal experiences negates a legally binding terms of service contract which is why both Disney and Lyft are forcing victims of medical injuries to accept binding arbitration instead of being able to take their large corporate asses to court.
Well done!

Tos isn't legally binding though

Even in third world shit-holes, it sure as heck is, pal.

"In the age of the Internet, contracts take a number of high-tech forms, but is checking a box really legally binding? The short answer is yes."

If Amazon wants to offer me Prime for free beyond what their TOS says, that's on them, not me. And it's illegal to switch and bait.

Again, it wasn't just 30 day trials, but weekend/week long trials too. I'm actually unsure of how long they lasted, btw, but they were free and i used them to buy single things without worrying about the minimum order.

I ahven't liked Prime for years now, since so much of their shit isn't one day shipping and without prime i still my shit within a couple of days, even when it says it'll take longer. The benefits of living in a populated city.

>Each of these courts evaluated what is commonly referred to as a “sign-in wrap” agreement, and in each case the court held that the manner in which the applicable terms were presented to the user or the manner in which the user assented to them was not sufficient to form an enforceable contract.
Whether Amazon is or isn't, who fucking knows unless someone get sued about it.
These TOS things have always been in shaky ground since they were introduced in the 90s. I'm not at all surprised people no longer know about these news stories, because 4chan is full of zoomers now.
