Let's just hug our problems away!

There is literally no other way to defeat Void without killing Robert. You would have pissed and shitted yourself if they Suicide Squad'd it and killed him off right there and then.

Not really, he’s been killed in the comics about every time he appeared. Just ressurects next time.
Or better yet just make the Thunderbolts movie a thriller about the Thunderbolts. Not Sentry’s therapy cheerleaders. Put Ross in there.

Not really, he’s been killed in the comics about every time he appeared. Just ressurects next time.

Because they're comics and you can pull that shit there. They'd use telepaths or magic to seal Void away and get rid of Bob's memories, sometimes Bob himself just stands up to Void and attempts to get rid of it himself.
Anyway, Void's not dead and he will return the next time Sentry goes apeshit.

yeah and he’ll send everyone to the crybaby therapy realm again

lol

At least they didn't kill Void.
It would have pissed me off harder than when they killed Carnage after one little consequence-less fight.

Have you seen the cartoons they watch? This is how they are.

You're not cool anymore, Elon. Time to grow up and act like a middle-aged millionaire who knows he has too much cash.

Warmed up? The word's been lukewarm bordering on cold since 2022.

Put Ross in there.

This, but wait until Harrison Ford retires so we can recast him. He's an okay President Ross but not a good General Ross.

The word's been lukewarm bordering on cold since 2022.

Not in the least. It's been steadily gaining steam, especially in the wake of the AI era. It's going to be used a LOT going forward.

I would also like to point out that trying to kill Bob is literally what set the Void free, so that probably wouldn’t work either

Go outside

The film ends with a lonely troubled guy being offered compassion and comprehension instead of being shamed for his existence and you faggots still complain.

seems like youre speaking from experience

LOL

Except he was neither lonely or troubled.
He was some faggy soiboy manbaby who had no trouble getting along with the others, tried to act meek and dorky and scawwed of everything despite being a grown adult man in his 30s, and constantly tried to act like a “funny” redditor with quipshit like “le cucumbers”.

Throwing in a last minute sad backstory and making him cry and cry and cry like an lgbt fag does not make it about loneliness and compassion. It makes it a poorly tacked-on backstory to an unfunny mcu cuck film where they all hug the comic relief and go “aww so sad!” Even his meth addiction is only brought up to be another joke scene about the “funny” chicken man fighting them. It’s inane.

You’d seriously have to be 13 to think being sad because people were mean to you, then crying and getting a hug is what mental illness is about.

You’d seriously have to be 13

They are. And none of them have mental illness either, Mom took away their Xbox and girls at school say they smell so now Sentry is literally them

You’d seriously have to be 13

I know you'd have to be. You need to be 18 to post here.

Mental Illness doesn't turn the individual into an incel-like state just for having it. It's a far more complicated issue, and affecta the person in a myriad of ways, not just the stereotypical image showcased by media. As for the film itself, Bob is show to have been abused and neglected by his parents, and shares a history of mental problems passed over by his mother, besides showing heavy symptoms of what can be inferred as bipolarity. In no way he's like that "just because people we're mean to him".

Holy shit why are you faggots so negative all the time.
I understand getting mad at unnecessary race mixing couples, lgbt shilling, whatever, but you're getting mad at a character overcoming their flaws and progressing the story.
Jesus Christ we get it, this board is the most mentally disabled retard board full of unironic special needs people who like their cartoons for kids because the idea of a character changing at all instead of just fighting in one off episodic slop triggers your autism, but out of all the shit to complain about this isn't the thing to choose get some fucking taste, there are a million things you can critique the latest Marvel slop for and you chose this instead.

You don't understand beating the shit out of a monster for the 28th million time is what makes a good product

You sound like you could use a hug, anon.

I'm entertained at the idea of people supporting this representation of mental illness but looking down upon someone like Kanye or Chris Chan for being the "wrong flavor" of rock bottom. Mental illness is cute and quirky until it doesn't agree with me.

Anon, if we ever meet I'll stomp you out for the good of humanity.

the movie handled depression and loneliness
being there for each other and hugging helps, like family

being actually mentally ill, like kanye and chris, requires professional help

Or maybe different mental illnesses exist.

We’ll never meet because you’ve never left your gamer chair in all 13 years you’ve been alive, and if you tried now you’d be too fat to pry your ass off

Yeah
There’s real mental illness
And there’s the fashionable type teenage emos and women label themselves with for “i feel sadness sometimes gimme a hug and a box of tissues waahh!!”

It didn’t even handle real depression or loneiness either
I think it needs to be said again that stapling a sad backstory in the last 20 minutes and crying about it is not making a movie about it.
Bob in this film is no different than Peter from Deadpool or the unfunny Extras from Antman. He’s the quirky comic relief then he’s given superpowers. He’s never written as actual depressed, antisocial or lonely until it’s time for his backstory so he can start crying “WAAAH DADDY HIT ME WAAHH WAAAHHH”

He tried to kill himself in the first act because he felt he didn’t matter and just made things worse

He distracted the guards and take their bullets to save his new friends
The basic bitch heroic act that every superhero movie has, and another proof he has zero problems with socialising or making friends because he is written as a randumb quirk chungus comic relief, not a man with actual depression or anti-social tendencies

This slop was literally just Steven Universe Future
youtube.com/watch?v=YiT4E51wGhA
but somehow less cool and even more gay

KEK

Except Thunderbolts did it better.

You sound like the type of person that this movie would be fit for but you reject it for retarded reasons so you should commit to actually killing yourself the next time you're all alone in your room or by yourself.

We'll never meet because EXCUSES AND PROJECTION

Can't even fucking commit, at least he promised you on the chance that you meet.

this girl I have literally no connection to that I met yesterday is hugging me

now I am okay

vs

the people who I have personally helped and those that helped me throughout my life are all here to help ease my suffering

now I am okay

A cute eastern european girl I just met hugging me and pressing her body against me would also solve all my problems.

You seem to imply mental ilness incapacitates you from wanting affection or being functional. Not all autists are Chrischan.

Yes, mental illness IS supposed to impair your ability to be functional in a social setting.
Anything else is just low-test tumblr teens and women wanting to feel speshul for feeling sad now and then, the same way every human on earth does.

Bob's not antisocial, but does struggle with loneliness and symptoms of illness. It's mentioned that he blacks out from time to time, disorienting him and leaving him with a lesser sense of control (which is why he copes with his addiction). And it might come as a surprise, but depressed and lonely people are not purely conditioned by that state; you can still be friendly and try to act positively while being depressed. It doesn't incapacitate you for all corners of life.

the type of person this movie is fit for are the types who draw comics of Steve and Tony like this on tumblr, think they have a "panic attack" whenever they feel stress, and have never experienced real depression or hardship in their life

You are genuinely pathetic. Seek help.

talk no jutsu

"Doctor Doctor, there's something wrong with me, I can't fix all life's problems by crying like a faggy teenager to an lgbt therapist woman with blue hair"
Sought help. Good news, Dr said i'm just not an MCU consoomer.

It difficults your functioning at a social or personal setting, which varies heavily in degree; it does not instantaneously renders you "useless". High functioning depression exists, as well as the entire autism spectrum.

his addiction's not even a thing in the movie either.
That is also entirely told offscreen as part of his crybaby backstory and is never relevant in the present time.
Worse yet it's told as a joke for "duuuh there's a funnee man in a chicken suit fighting us I must've been high on meth lol!"

half of the autism spectrum is also a massive grift by teenagers wanting to feel speshul, and therapists prescribing conditions where no problem exists. Look up how many Somali immigrants successfully claim they have autism based on omnipresent "symptoms" to get state benefits.

Notice how none of the posts acting negative towards this post are refuting it's central argument but are just ad hominems? Surely

It is a part of it, just not the central point of Bob's characterization; it's mentioned to illustrate just how far down the guy got to due to his problems.
If it doen't go beyond those mentions it's because a)it is only a consequence of Bob's personality and history, which are the main focus of his character, b)a serious study on addiction would requiere a far greater insight into the problem and while he's one of the main characters, he's not purely the focus and the film has to devote time to other things, and c)that would requiere an R rating and this was still a mainstream film

The misuse of a diagnostic is one thing, the validity of a condition is another.

Anon just ragebaited, and didn't put any point to discussion.

the massive misuse of the diagnostic is because the condition is so readily misapplied. The condition is only valid for those it actually impairs. Any normal person can read themselves into autism conditions the way a woman will read her own life into a horoscope.

hitler just needed a hug

I mean, he was constantly abused by his father, that probably didn’t help things

Yeah, you should retardo

"Libs don't know what actual mental illness means" is a very valid point

The broadening of the autism spectrum is due to just how merky the condition on itself is; it's very limits, unlike other types of mental disorders, can't be marked without stepping into conditions that might or might not share traits that are commonly interpreted as autism. The condition itself started by being labeled as a type of child schizophrenia, and has got to the point of making the notion of Asperger's dissapear since it was seen as redundant when Autism exists.
I totally agree that the misuse of the diagnostic is a real issue, but that shouldn't stop further research into the limits of the condition.

He just generalized the behaviors and personalities of mentally ill people while ranting about it, not really making a serious point of discussion.

I don't watch Shitflix trash, so I wouldn't know.

Umm hey guys I know you're all serious soldiers in a thriller spy movie but I'm your mandated comic relief the executives asked for

I'm super dorky and randumb and I act like i'm an awkward 13 year old even though i'm 32 and have neckfat like a turkey

UWAHH I'M SO SCAWWED OF EVERYTHING HEIGHTS SCARE ME UUUU PROTECC ME GAY GIRLBOSS HALF MY AGE

Oh no guys I know we're climbing up this vent but I think I'm gonna SNEEZE isn't that so funny in such a serious situation A-A-A---

Umm CUCUMBERS XD *holds up spork* I'm so random and silly aren't I heh??? *wink*

Guys I awakened my superpowers now, I have this DARKNESS inside me uuuu teenagers at home you feel the DARKNESS inside you too right grr

also here's me being le evil superman #999999999 I know that's the only thing from this fanboys actually care about so i'll beat up some muggles

...but now it's THERAPY TIME QUEEENS! my inner DARKNESS is unleashed and now you're in my therapy dimension

MY DADDY HIT ME WAAAHHHHHH WAAAAAHHHHH WHEN I WAS A BOY MY DADDY HIT MEEEE WAAAAHHH *sucks thumb in baby room* WAAAAH DID I TELL YOU MY DADDY HIT ME WAAAAHHHH I'M SUCH A SAD CHARACTER BECAUSE DADDY HIT MEE WEEEHHH WEEEEHH

Ugu I'm so angwy because my DARKNESS is saying spooky lines like "You can't get rid of me"! This is totally, like, a metaphor for mental illness and stuff! BECAUSE DADDY HIT MEEEE!!!!

WAAHHHHH EVERYONE GIVE ME HUGS WHILE I CRY WAAAH

But I won't do anything so I don't unleash my super scawwy Therapy monster who is an avengers-level threat with his therapy powers! But I did the dishes guyysssss isn't that so random and quirky???? *holds up spork*

I related to this.

If you watch any modern cartoon, you would know.

It'd be funny if this wasn't literally the "film" they shat out
Marvel did not learn a single thing from Love and Thunder

Yeah, the uwu sadboi stuff is shit and gay, but you should keep in mind that most characters that are written to be standoffish as possible can also be annoying. Ideally, I'd just have a Gosling type who tries to push on with life, but ends up self-destructing anyways.

Ideally i'd just write him as in Dark Reign.
Some schizo everyone else rightfully doesn't trust to have superpowers, being misled by people who don't like him but tell him they do and worsen his bad habits.

yeah, that's Sentry, he's cool.

No, this is Sentry.
That's some fag.

Steven’s a shitter than ran away because he’s an ungrateful brat. Bob finally found his friends and family in the Thunderbolts, and he stays with them. Try again.

Sounds like Bob, frankly. Threw a tantrum and tried to kill all his "friends and family" because...uhhh.. oh yeah because Daddy Hit Me lol

because...uhhh.

because the killswitch on his brain got activated while he was trying to kill the Seinfield woman

Millennial writing

and then they go inside his therapy space and see it's all actually because daddy hit me waahhh waaahh wahhhhh

Bob was overtaken by the void. Even after defeating him the film states that he lost his memory about the incident, showcasing he wasn't entirely in control.

The trauma isn't used as an excuse for his action.

Comics Void is the eldritch monster that attacked Ancient Egypt, possessing a mentally unstable crackhead that might let him out at a single dopamine-fueled moodswing

MCU Void is a soiboy having a panic attack because his daddy hit him when he was 13, and the Void is just him using therapy powers to make everyone see "Dark" memories of him dancing in a chicken suit

MCU Superheroes used to kill people and now they just hug

yes it is, retard. The whole thing's solved because manbaby needs a heckin hug because he has a bitchbaby backstory that makes him cry like a fag.
That's literally it. His whole Void tantrum is just him crying because daddy hit me.

Imagine losing control of your mind because daddy hit you, lol. Only tumblrinas could ever

I remember comics Void was actually a monster that actually attacked people. Didn't just make them replay crybaby memories.
Noone in comics would ever be scared of a bad memories bad guy.

Being a Space Satan is gay.

Comics Void is the eldritch monster that attacked Ancient Egypt

that was a later retcon.
MCU Void is based on the original version, and apparently had some supervising done by the original creator.

Space Satan is what Sentry is. Not a gay panic attack bitch.

Quit projecting. The only manbaby here is you.

It was mentioned in Dark Reign which is one of his first arcs.
No I think it's the 30+ year old man who cries like a whale

""Frufru softboi" nigga he vaporized a room full of scientists in a moment of nihilistic despair and got addicted to meth. What fucking movie did you watch? The Void is his mental illness, Bob is just him when he's not in a despair spiral.

It’s not. That was a retarded retcon made later down the line. You’d know that if you were a real fan of the character, and not a loser pathetically trying to rage bait on a Mongolian basket weaving forum.

ngl you niggas sound weirdly stuck on this.

yeah his dad hit him, leading to depression and drug addiction, which only made his already present mental illness get even worse.

how is that not just normal character backstory?

Boohoohoo he mentioned being on a meth trip offscreen while he fought a funny dancing chicken suit in therapy land, this is so le DEEP!!!!!
All those scientists he also sent to therapy land to see his TWISTED memories of "Waaaahhh daddy hit meee!!! gimme a hug waaahh"""

Which one are you going for then? Original Sentry series, Void is a monster he has to contain with forced amnesia and a mental world trap where he becomes Sentry every day in his head, not a panic attack. Dark Reign Void is a monster. Horseman of Apocalypse onwards Void's is always a monster. I'm a fan of the real character, not this faggy unfunny tumblr version mcu does.

I wouldn't make my whole movie resolution about a poorly tacked on backstory. Batman doesn't defeat Joker by breaking down crying about muh dead parents.

Different kinds of mental problems, Chris Chan is something else, both figuratively and literally.

The issue is that no one is coming to a superhero movie to see people hug

horoscope autism is not a real mental problem. It's something you use for popularity on tiktok

People don’t generally like self admitted rapists.

No those scientists see the moment of their greatest shame and self-loathing, literally a hell of their own making. And he did this knowingly. The Void is literally just the other half of his manic depression. Go outside, touch grass, and date a chick with BPD like I did. Watch the bitch go from 0 to 100, key your car because she thought you 'talked to a whore' because she hasn't met your mom, and then immediately swap back to sunshine mode in 3 hours.

Bob isn't realistic, but he's not just Le Sad Boi.

Oh boohoohoo they saw their Le Trauma this is so heckin sad!
Nobody cares fag. Void should be an actual monster not crybaby therapy-time powers.
Go back to crying like a fag because feeling sad sometimes means you're mentally ill. That's all MCU Void is, Sentry crying because le daddy hit me

mental illness has a very strong correlation with the chance you'll try to rape someone.
Though of course that's not the cute and quirky and fashionable "mental illness" tumblrinas love to say they have

autism is a spectrum you retard.

Sentry goes Void and shows Omniman his saddest memory

Omniman doesn't cry like Bob does, he just gets more pissed

Decks crybaby Sentry in the face and kills him instantly

"Grow some balls you fag."

Disney, pay me to write the crossover

Yes i'm sure that's what you tell yourself, 300ib green-haired katherine from HR

dumb ass fatherless nigger.

Kino

Go cry back to your therapist now little baby

Canon

Mentally Ill people don't tend to commit violence generally tho

Facts, I work with the public and you'd be surprised how much overlap there is between entitlement and mental illness.

Most actually mentally ill people do. Either to others or themselves, usually by not being able to take care of themselves.
Trendy "mental illness" sure

anon, i have autism.
not self-diagnosed tumblr autism, genuinely diagnosed autism by a professional, ive struggled with socializing and being a normal person my entire life, and have had to be put on programs due to it since i can remember.

you're a fucking retard if you think Lolcow behavior is the only "true" autism.

Autistic here, Chris Chan is really something else.

T. fatherless.

Nope. Again, it is used as part of his backstory and to explain his behaviour, not absolve it. The Void was years of accumulated depression and self-loathing, and Yelena and the rest, who are all equally fucked up people, saw themselves in him and understood he needed compassion.

Gimme a hug Anon Babble.

"No more hugs, Disney..."

When I was a kid I lived next to a mental hospital. The one in Littlemore, Oxford. They still let some of them walk outside the gate and around town for some reason.
They absolutely shouldn't, half of them are dribbling drug addict retards who shout at themselves and you can't stand next to one without being on edge, they're the types who become homeless anywhere else. None of them have any self-control. Only reason they never attack anyone is people cross the road whenever they see them.

I can rephrase and say that violence commited to others is not something that, on the majority, is commited by mentally ill people. They do tend to be victims of violence.
Self-harm on the other hand, as you've said, is another issue.

"professional" therapists are a scam, anon. I'm sorry you have to hear it from me but you'll figure it out on your own one day.

self diagnosed people are idiots(true)

professionals are a scam

what then, genius?

aka, he's absolved of it and given compassion and forgiven, because le sad backstory le daddy hit me
glad you self-admitted

Yeah let's magically solve the psychological problems of the main cast by beating the shit of some generic cgi monster again

If you’re a retard who can’t take care of yourself, THEN you get to call yourself a retard
Not because some woman who went to college on her dad’s money says you’re shy when you talk to strangers
