TopicWait, is SSJ4 considered canon or not?
darkzero297
05/27/20 1:02:21 AM
#4
It is actually an interesting question. Neither GT or Super are actually made by Toriyama, save for some input he has given. Technically, in terms of timeline, it could be possible for them both to be canon. But at this point, too many concepts have been introduced in Super that aren't in GT so obviously it is very strange, if not entirely contradictory to consider both canon. Given how Super follows Z so much more strictly and immediately in terms of timeline than GT did, that might suggest that SSJ4 could not be canon, except ironically, the one major thing Toriyama contributed to GT was SSJ4 itself. Can something that the series creator himself made be non-canon? Sure, but only if it is retconned. At this point, that is probably where SSJ4 stands as a concept in the series. SSJ4, Dragon Ball GT, and likely the actual ending of Dragon Ball Z have basically been retconned at this point.

I just purchased this and I have had it for about 4 days so far and I am very impressed. It doesn't have any stories of common malfunctions that I can see across the internet, it is fast as hell, small, light, powerful enough for gaming and anything else you might do, and it is discounted a few hundred bucks, even though it still would have fit into your budget anyways. Very little bloatware as well.

https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07RG83B7K/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I should also mention though that the battery life is kinda crap from what I have heard. Even when plugged in, it only goes up to 96 % charge lol. I heard that it does gaming for 1 hour, or anything else for about 3 hours on a single charge. Definitely not the best.

Did you not know? It's actually a pretty stand-out situation in the history of the video game industry. You know, just one of those really weird things that happened. The second disc has many scenes where characters just narrate what was supposed to happen. Entire segments of the story with absolutely no gameplay at all.

No side effects either. That being said, I have never had a problem with any medicine in my life and everything works just as intended on me with no side effects. I guess I'm just super lucky like that. Although, it is unlucky that I need those medicines in the first place.

Why would they expect their security to be paid by state/government?
Their security is always paid for by the British government. And the Canadian government is also obligated (constitutionally IIRC) to do so as well. The issue is that since they have abdicated their royal role, they are now obligated to cover their own expenses. I believe that Canada has effectively decided, however, to uphold their duty to the British mainland to cover for their expenses, despite renouncing their royalty anyways. This has been a matter of contention for the Canadian political scene, but obviously America has no obligation at all to them. It would be amazing if they actually requested the American government to cover for them. Just the gall to do so would be out of this world.

Yeah, it has touch controls, but the game was actually developed with gamepad controls in mind. I think the development of the game coincided with the release of some kind of phone that has a physical gamepad attachment. That being said, any gamepad works.

Haven't seen any posts about this so here we go.

It is not available outside of various asian countries, however, you can search for and download the apk from various app mirror sites and manually install it. I did so on android, but I'm not sure how this could be done on IOS since I don't use that.

In any case, the game has multiple languages (English as well) so there are no accessibility issues in that regard. It is a typical freemium game, but I am actually having a lot of fun with it. It plays very well, especially with a gamepad. Maybe the jumping lags by a frame or 2 but it's not that bad. They really did a great job translating the enemies, bosses and levels from the earlier games into this. It's got a bunch of multiplayer modes as well. I also kind of appreciate that the story for the game doesn't try to create some dumb side story within the canon of the series or just retell parts of the actual games/stories. Instead, the story breaks the 4th wall and revolves around you, as a player of the Megaman X games and the memories you have had with those games being corrupted or something like that.

It's definitely worth looking into if you are a big fan of the megaman X games. I got a super nostalgia blast from fighting the intro stage boss from Megaman X2 in this game. Fun times so far.

Damn, for whatever reason I was under the impression that Kevin Feige was just a director/producer, and not the actual head of MCU. Ok then that changes things. My mistake.

If Feige was intent on making a certain type of movie with a certain lead character and it was the Disney higher ups who prevented that due to concerns about diversity, then the interference would be on their part, not Feige.

You're misunderstanding the relationship here. Kevin Feige is the head of the MCU. Basically he's in charge of the MCU output. He chooses what they make, what directors to go with, etc. (assuming the Disney higher ups approve).

There's no original creative vision for him to meddle with because he was being denied the opportunity to start a female led Marvel movie to begin with.
If that's true then I am mistaken then.

The issue with that argument is you're saying that having this stuff negatively impacts the story without really explaining why. How is it not 'forced' There are plenty of people who think companies like Disney do this stuff to appease social justice types and not because they want to.

Which implications do you think I've misunderstood? The implication seems to be that Feige had to fight tooth and nail to get a movie like Captain Marvel and would have left the company if he didn't get it.
I was purposely not explaining how 'forced diversity' might affect quality negatively because I'm not actually interested in that point of view. Rather, my only interest here was how you interpreted what Mark Ruffalo said as a refutation of the 'forced diversity' accusation when I could even more easily see this intrepreted as confirmation of precisely that accusation. The fact that Keven Feige had to fight so hard for it is what makes it look forced.

As it so happens, I actually agree with Kevin Feige. Black Widow should have had her own movie long ago at this point.

In this case the creators wanted diversity and it was executive meddling that risked compromising the creative quality of the end product.
That's definitely an interesting point because I can imagine being able to argue the exact opposite. The question of 'forced diversity' implies that the diversity is being forced in artificially. So was the director looking to make a diverse project but was stopped from doing so from above, or was the director hired for a project but wanted to make his own changes.

Who is the 'creator' in this scenario? Is it the company that decided to make movies based on properties it acquired, or was it the director ultimately hired to do the job? Who is responsible for forcing their way in.

As I have said earlier in the topic, it seems from what Mark Ruffalo is saying that Kevin was the one trying to force a change and affect the original creative vision.

You should think about why that is.

Forced diversity being an issue because creators want diversity in their own stories makes no sense.
The entire issue is predicated on how well the diversity is implemented into the work. If it is done in an awkward or 'forced' manner, then the quality of the work is affected negatively and complaints follow from that. Is that not the issue? If not, then what is the source of contention? I am trying to be open minded about this, but I am increasingly convinced that you have misunderstood the implications of what Mark Ruffalo has said here.

How is fighting major shareholders and executives for the opportunity to make a diverse movie validate forced diversity?
When people talk about this issue, it has been my impression that people often do so at the creative level. Hence the typical counter argument being that 'forced diversity' risks compromising the creative quality of the end product. This story that you posted reinforces the 'forced diversity' notion that the creative angle of these movies is being influenced by the political sensibilities of the creators in a premeditated fashion.

I can't think of a single time I have heard someone take the opposing position on this issue ('forced diversity' being a problem) and tackle it at the level of investors and other stakeholders for example.
