>>220502977All "smart" characters in Television & Film are like this, because most movie writers are stupid.
>>220503165Common lazy Smart character tropes. Like solving a rubix cube very fast, or winning chess very fast
>>220503165Yeah you a character is only as smart as it's writer.>>220503204Random nonsensical technobabble too. Doctor Who does that a lot.
>>220502977it's for 70iq shaquinas to self-insert as
>>220503228>Why didn't you resynchronize the VCR clocks?
>>220503204or replacing a smoke alarm battery
>>220503204Have you ever met a dumb person who was far above average at chess or fast with a rubix cube? Didn't think so.
>>220503204>won't do shit because "it's beneath me"
>>220502977Sage is the most pleb-filter character since Janice Soprano Idiots can't stand her without realizing that's the whole point
>>220503856>that's the whole pointlol. she is not a parody of shaquinas but the opposite. it's their power fantasy
>>220503165I'm glad there are movies lik Fracture (2007) that raise the bar
>>220502977>So in order to have fun like a normal person, you self-lobotomize your regenerating brain?>Yes.>And it never occurred to you to design a headband that generates localized EM fields to disrupt synaptic activity in the frontal lobe or that stimulate the areas identified with feelings of euphoria and religious experiences, maybe even with a timer incorporated into it so you can have it shut off after a specified duration?>…>Are you absolutely positive you’re not just the world’s smartest nigger?
>>220503932she's a parody of all the redditors who think black women invented the spaceship because of Hidden Figures
>>220503856>the whole thing is meant to be bad and embarrassing haha you don't get it
>>220503986In english, doc.
>>220502977absolutely fucking would
>>220503987>she's a parodynigga the politics of the showrunners is blatant. how can you say she is a parody?
>>220504021zap yo brain with magnets mah nigga
>>220503827Magnus Carlson is probably the best chess player in the world but he holds no degree in any other subject. Most rubix cube speed records are set by kids who haven't finished grade school. Neither requires great intelligence just great practice.
>>220504057It's cope lol>She's not poorly written, she's actually a 9001-D chess parody of what drumphkin miggers THINK a poorly-written world's smartest moon cricket would be like!
>>220504188>Magnus Carlson is probably the best chess player in the world but he holds no degree Strange that you equate intelligence with formal education. Does he need a degree? A lot of dumb people graduate from college...
>>220504075nigga can't help it - she's a juggalo.
>>220502977The kike writers made fun of DEI without even realizing it
>>220504217The most unbelievable part is her motivation being that she's sick of all the world's bullshit and wants to kill us all for some peace and quiet.The only people who insert themselves into political bullshit more than sheboons are trannies.
why would you watch this fucking shit
>>220504368I never claimed that everyone with a degree is smart, but smart people do tend to have degrees. A lot of dumb people play chess and speed run rubix cubes as well so, thanks for agreeing with me.
>>220502977Did she gain weight for the Taco Bell product placement, or was the taco bell product placement written to explain her weight gain?
Frenchie was actually a pretty good depiction of a smart character in that he was good at his hyperfixation and otherwise completely retarded.
>The writers actually tried to make her really likeable because they're all woke people who worship black women, but then they're so stupid and woke that she turned into an unlikable character/tv/ logic
>>220502977literally me fr fr
>>220503228>Yeah you a character is only as smart as it's writer.Stupid ass reddit take>to write a good killer character you must be a murderer irl hurrr
>>220502977Would
>>220502977A lot of what any super smart character does will never hold up in retrospect. It just needs to be good enough in the moment that the audience will buy into it until the end of the episode.
>>220504368The most intelligent people inevitably pursue quality information which requires indulging academia you fucking redditor uhm aktually faggot. Leave the brain cell on the floor, you don't need it where you're going.
>>220505279sub 80 IQ post
>>220503228>Yeah you a character is only as smart as it's writer.This is just not true, and you can figure it by thinking for 10 seconds, but didn'tA writer can think for days, weeks, months for a plan his character will come up in seconds, he can use resources the character doesn't haveStop regurgitating reddit takes and think for yourself
>>220505333>It just needs to be good enough in the moment that the audience will buy into it until the end of the episode.The problem is that it doesnt. I dont think Sister Sage has done a single smart thing in the show that has made me go "woah she is smart"
>>220502977HOLY KINO
>>220503827Tyler1 has a 1900 ELO. That's better than 99.5% of ranked players. If his IQ was in the same percentile he'd have an IQ of 140.
>>220505649only smart thing she said on this show
>>220505649She's smart enough to never insult Muslims
>>220502977why does she also speak like everyone else in the show with the gross sex analogies and lowest common denominator pop culture referencessurely you'd want to write her differently
>>220505698>Von Neumann would carry on a conversation with my 3-year-old son, and the two of them would talk as equals, and I sometimes wondered if he used the same principle when he talked to the rest of us.
>>220502977>chair creaks>stomach bubbles>everyone slowly backing away
>>220505754that doesn't mean he was talking to the son like a 3-year-old, he was just treating him as an adult
>>220502977Vidya has a superior Sage.
>>220505798sonic frontiers is bullshit for mongoloids with a metal gear solid soundtrack tacked on for some fucking reason
>>220505826Yeah but she's cute
>>220505755>Let me tell you...
>>220503165People who think they're constantly manipulating others and smarter than everyone else are just morons often held up by others.
>>220505579You’re working under the false assumption that your hypothetical writer has the ability to parse all that information. Unless you can provide evidence to the contrary I can’t think of a single example of a character, and by extension the creation of a writer, that plays a convincing “super smart” persona.
>>220505280absolutely, you can tell she's into race play too.
>>220505698because that's how everyone talks.For me it was when the 12-year-old girl talked about "her dick"
What's the beef between Mother Milk & Soldier Boy again? >MM's father died cause he worked overtime trying to pursue vought because of collateral damage that SB causedSo you be saying cause the one Black guy in the universe who had a father that wasn't shot robbing an 7/11 had to make his entire guilt about race war because some asshat who didn't give a fuck about anything was protected by huge corporation? Like why the fuck isn't MM upset at vought and wanting to kill edgar when he had the chance, after all he is part of the system that allowed SB to remain unaccountable during his hero shenanigans. Also what about the courts and local politicians that signed on with vought to have supes remain untouchable during their patrols? Why does this black man want to make his case about race war shit when they had other "racist" supes like the blue hawk going around kill the black community, why wasn't MM going after that race supremacist supe?
>>220505985To be pedantic about this, the claim was that the writer can't write a character smarter than them. You don't need to write an ultramegasupergenius for it to quality as being a character smarter than you.
>>220505613That's fair, and I think the writers actually do know they're too retarded to write a supe as smart as homelander is powerful which is why there are so few scenes with her. Nevertheless they can't avoid the trap entirely like you said. Imagine the mindfuck of trying to write a show she was the lead in, she's like an order of magnitude past Sherlock Holmes. It's questionable that she didn't just make herself a giga serum or build a moonbase.
>>220502977>I cannot predict lovewhy doesnt she just watch redpill podcasts?
>>220502977Honestly, this might work IRL. I'm going to try to Sagemaxxx at college next semester. Will let you guys know if it gets me some hella sick internship.
>>220506492Why cant she predict love?
>>220505579>A writer can think for days, weeks, months for a plan his character will come up in secondsBrandon Sanderson is a moron. And no, he can't write smart characters. This idea of "thinking long time" is stupid.
>>220506553>This idea of "thinking long time" is stupid.You're right, you should not be thinking at allI am preaching to the choir here, you're already doing that
>>220505379What degree did you get? What university? Most colleges put more money into the football program.
Writing a super smart character isn't that difficult. You just need to write your plot around that character. It requires good drafts and a plan and some foresight.It becomes a problem with TV shows though, because you have strict writing deadline, story lines that often run longer than they should, other characters you have to service, actors you need to take into account, contracts you need to oblige. It's literally that worm writer character. Sage is supposed to be super smart, but the writer is probably given 2 weeks to write the script and they have to tie up multiple characters plots, they have to write in a Supernatural reunion, they have to set up 5 new characters for a spin off. They need to make plotlines for all the remaining characters. Actors demand X amount of screentime. Producers want X amount of this and that. That said, the whole can't logic with love is pretty shit. They should have just had her have multiple back up plans, reveal that she had been feeding the Boys the plan to give Kimiko the chest blast power was her plan all along or some shit. Although that plot is pretty shit too.
>>220505895Sociopaths on the street are constantly pulling this bullshit with anyone around them and they lose their shit when someone doesnt go along with it.
>>220506514What an embarrassing clownshoes, I could forgive him if he was on something.
>>220506553I thought he made incredibly complex magic systems that fans loved.
Am I the only one that wants to fuck her? Why do I love black women so much man
>>220506955The limitless books are amazing and the 2nd goes into an advertisement executive receiving the smart drug and his ascent to an intellectual apex.
>>220507053Trinity and Simone in bangbus were hot as hell.
>>220502977now this is a proper helen of troy, if you know what I mean
>>220507053be like this guy, shit this could maybe help develop africa
sage a cute. cute
>>220507053She just seems fun
>>220503204or mail-in ballots
>>220504021>folds paper in half and puts a pencil through it
>>220503986This series is allergic to science fiction. Superheroes don't have any interesting impact on the world. They're as watered down and low-level as possible,
How come when the deep rapes someone, he gets his life ruined but when Sage raped someone no one cares?
>>220506964Sometimes when they fail the manipulation skill check they try the intimidation skill check
>>220507637Walking around the city trying to have fun was always a risk of running into these morons.
>>220507612the deep and sage both show signs of being autistic and are only reacting to stimuli in improper ways due to the way their brain processes information.
>>220507656Bet i can guess where you got your shoes
>>220503204>winning chess very fastI'd love a story where the genius character keeps losing at chess against people but it is revealed later that they're losing on purpose but teaching the other person how to play better and learn the game to a grandmaster level without realising it.
>>220507809Go on...
>>220508211On yo feet nigga you owe me a dollar!
>>220505123This is true.
>>220508252Lmao
>>220505649>but the people who believed in the sky ghost before the story about the baby sky ghost happened are fine>and also everyone who believes in the prophet of the sky ghost that came after the story about the baby sky ghost is fine, too
>>220508330I kinda fucked it up but you get the gist of it. Be prepared for that one if you vistit new orleans.
All according to keikaku
>>220507369
>>220502977>no one will fuck dick this bitch's arrogance downShe clearly just need a cock to stop with this "ill be happy in a bunker full of books".Smarter person in the world YET she can't stop being a woman. Lol
>>220506014Lol her husband is white.
>random bs>"very predictable">something the audience can see coming from a mile away>"i can't predict love"they adress criticism of their show with the sublety of a jackhammer on a glass dome.
>>220506065Bro who the fuck cares at this point.
>>220507860Can he be like a dirty old bum, too? Like the kind of guy where you’re thinking about punching them because they’re, you know, a dirty old bum, but you’re just like “I don’t know, there’s just something about this guy …”?
>>220508533It was still great.
>>220502977How did this thread gain traction? This did not happen at all. The character literally spent an entire episode bedrotting and watching roastie entertainment to distract herself from the fact that she can't predict everything so she might as well be completely useless.
>>220506553What wrong with sanderson, just finished the first book of mistborn and was quite all right
>>220504858Back in S4 she said she was just doing it for fun.They never explained why she kept lobotomizing herself, it was just because being intelligent makes you very unhappy?S5 has been very dissapointing.
>>220505698I hate how everyone MUST talk like a 12 year old or people get genuinely angry. If she talked like The Architect from The Matrix you know everyone would get pissed off.>>220508888checked quads of truth
>>220502977>Alright writers, how are we going to subvert the audiences expectations?>Well, what if we added a black woman to the show.>Loving it; but how does that subvert expectations?>What if we made her the smartest person on the planet?>Now that's what I call subverting expectations!https://youtu.be/267Zihh6T0g?t=51
>>220503986despite being the world's smartest genius, she is never shown to actually CREATE or INVENT anything. all she does is read books that we were required in univ. phil class like wittgenstein.typical female blackie fashion. just consooms and bitches.funny how even though it's a progressive show, they write blacks in a negative light sometimes. even stan edgar seems smarter than her (in a business sense).
>>220504893many anons are actually retarded brown liberals who pretend to be "redpilled".
>>220508252You got me. I had heard it before and I still fell for it. Some tv show.
>>220508608Based brat tamer, the allie sin treatment.
I'm retarded. Who was she in love with? The deep?
>>220505754Like equals!? That’s pretty rare!
>>220508931That entire middle 400 pages between anything interesting where it's just balls and such.The Well Of Ascension is better but it again has stupid levels of unneeded filler.
A character is only as smart as their writers
>>220502977She literally said she miscalculated and got it wrong because she doesn't understand love, are you guys watching this show with an endless runner and family clips in the corner?
>>220509308You should have watched the spin-off show. The Boys is Marvel now. You have to watch everything to follow the labyrinthian plot.
>>220509216They did the same thing with the old Jewish guy last episode. He’s a weasel who only talks about banging countless people in the golden age, and somehow his honesty is enough to convince Homelander to let him just walk away.Wow, so progressive.
>>220502977I think I understand sage She is the writers/show runner self insert. They are part of the smartest people in the world but as marginalised people nobody will listen to them. Sage wants whites to go at war with themselves because of their arrogance and deep hatred of colors. Also sages break down over love isn't about soldier boy but the the writers not understanding the audiences love for characters like Stormfront, Homelander & Soldier Boy even though they are meant to be evil characters.It makes much more sense when you think about it like that
>>220502977She unironically was right about everything. Soldier Boy giving Homelander the V1 because they both fucked Stormfront was fucking RETARDED. She was literally so smart she outsmarted the bad writing.
>>220509574>In all my brilliance, I could not predict the power of love a father has for his son >Fast forward sound effect>You got what you wanted. Now I’m leaving the country so I never have to deal with your creepy ass again
>>220510020>I could not predict the power of love a father has for his sonthat's not even what it was
>>220502977The key to writing a smart character is to effectively make the harbinger of the plot and be a force for the story but to be able to properly fit it into the confines of the narrative in an organic way or at the very least obfuscate it. Say you have a schemer character who comes up with a play to get a bunch of people to do something. You will not have them outright explain it but show them interacting with them while subtly hinting shit and trying to convince them all individually to go along with something while presenting it in the narrative as being done independently of him until a later point. Also add in little things here and there to hint at his plan like say a book he has nearby or him doing something which on the surface looks like him playing his own role in the greater “group” plan but in actuality he is facilitating part of his scheme.
>>220510030No one making these threads watches the show. This should be quite apparent.
has she forseen sex with me?
>>220507612Are you telling me this show disparages male rape? No way, shocker
>>220502977They should've doctor manhattan her where she checks out halfway through s4, stops homelander from pursuing her and fucks off forever
>>220503827Chess can be a learned tihng
>>220502977This character is godawful and this show sucks ass but god she is so fucking cute bros
>>220506955Yeah so its just easy to go "What's her plan? Whatever is going on is her plan. Just have her say haha its going according to plan"
>>220510720Yeah and she should be casually nude all the time too
>>220511317Well yeah so is brain surgery
>>220503165Because I'd, by miracle, they actually write smart character, 95% of people will call it bad writing anyway
>>220503986> designing a headband would take several months. Testing it would take year or two. Jamming icepick up skull takes several seconds.
>>220504368You don't need to be intelligent to have a degree. You need to be either extremely lazy or extremely retarded to flunk it.
>>220502977Magical Negro trope, with a generous helping of Girlboss Wisdom.
>>220511537Oh, you’re so right, you unassailable tower of intellect. You couldn’t possibly icepick yourself for relief during that interim period comfortable in the knowledge that once the headband’s tested and perfected, you’d never need to icepick again. Such staggering shortsightedness has ever been the hallmark of genius.
>>220511329Bruh.
member when butcher has supe cancer??
>>220511537>designing a headband would take several months. Testing it would take year or twonot really a supergenius if it takes her that long
