Ok so I may get some hate for this but I’m going to say it anyway

I think Riri is such a champ for having the balls to do what everyone else seemingly refuses to do, RESURRECT HER FRIEND FROM THE DEAD!!!! Even if it was having to make a deal with Mephisto I don’t even care because the fact that she did it is great! Everyone talks about depth and meaningful deaths and likes the shock factor stuff but guess what, BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH!!!! SCREW THAT! If more heroes stopped being chickens and iron man wasn’t so selfish more heroes would come back from the dead the proper way instead of variants or time displaced dopplegangers they come back and stay back!!!!

Making a deal with Mephisto is the "proper" way to bring someone back from the dead?

PowersUnleashed2026-01-27 05:29

Wow you completely missed the point of this post. I’m saying to stop killing off character or if you do bring them back and stop this nonsense with “oh it cheapens their death or some other dumb garbage like that”

FalenAlter2026-01-27 05:39

It cheapens it the more often it happens.

PowersUnleashed2026-01-27 05:48

What does? Resurrection or to much death you mean?

FalenAlter2026-01-27 07:23

Yes, resurrection cheapens death the more resurrections happen.

PowersUnleashed2026-01-27 09:24

Well then let it cheapen screw death

gaypirate32026-01-27 05:51

I think it cheapens it when you introduce 100 new characters and only see them every 4 years

nickelbackisbad2026-01-27 06:03

You're right I don't understand your point. I mean your "blah blah blah" point was very eloquent, but I must be a little slow. WTF are you trying to say?

PowersUnleashed2026-01-27 09:33

I explained it 🤦‍♂️

mitvh23112026-01-27 05:28

There's many many shows and movies to show why bringing the dead back isn't a good idea

PowersUnleashed2026-01-27 05:29

Like what?

mitvh23112026-01-27 05:29

Any zombie movie

PowersUnleashed2026-01-27 05:30

That doesn’t count and I said back from the dead not undead! 🤦‍♂️

bythewayne2026-01-27 05:33

City of Angels. Not exactly the thing but it's kind of the same thing

PowersUnleashed2026-01-27 05:42

What’s that

bythewayne2026-01-27 06:16

A movie with Nic Cage and Meg Ryan. >!He, an angel falls with her, a mortal woman. To be with her he has to renounce his angel privileges, including his immortality.!<

Oh ok and what does it have to do with death?

bythewayne2026-01-27 13:58

You have to watch it, lol. Or look up the ending.

PowersUnleashed2026-01-27 22:03

I’ll probably never watch it so just tell me lol

bythewayne2026-01-28 01:19

He gives up his inmortality and she dies in the stupidest but plausible way

PowersUnleashed2026-01-28 01:37

Ok so if that’s the case why wouldn’t you want her to be revived

ShookMyHeadAndSmiled2026-01-27 05:35

The very first science fiction novel?

PowersUnleashed2026-01-27 05:48

LIKE WHAT MCU MOVIE?

Main-Key-12712026-01-27 08:31

Not mcu but Whistler (sorry if I misspelled that) from blade 1 he come back in blade 2 and if you go back the moment where blade makes him kill himself and refuses to kill him loses all weight because he just comes back in blade 2
Edit misspelled and at one part

PowersUnleashed2026-01-27 09:42

Well ok but why’s that a bad thing who the heck cares about his death when he’s back it’s meaningless because it never had meaning because he shouldn’t have died to begin with then. (My dad has them on dvd so I kind of remember now) Meaningless means pointless and pointless means that it was a stupid death.

Main-Key-12712026-01-27 10:01

>meaningless because it never had meaning because he shouldn’t have died to begin with then

It had meaning in the first film he was blades partner he was the reason blade could go out at day and it was pretty good scene and he had to die because the villian found his hideout it would be stupid for him not to kill the guy who was giving blade the stuff that let's him not die in sun

Also I would like to note that bring a character back can be good when you planned for them to come back when you killed them a good example of this is the people they killed at the end of infinity war or bucky

And about you wanting characters not to die/be revied when they do i ask do you want to watch a series where nothing has consequences and nobody ever that removes all stakes and tension from a story

PowersUnleashed2026-01-27 10:10

The stakes and tension are the temporary erasure of all these heroes the stakes are that their worlds are getting wiped out and they have to stop it the stakes are that it could be permanent because if they all get erased then nobody will be there to reverse it you make it sound like death is the catch all only way to build stakes when it’s not! If anyone is going to die it’s going to be kang NOT ant man.

DoNotGoSilently2026-01-27 05:33

If the show gets a season 2 you’re going to get an entire plotline about how she has to deal handle the negative consequences of that deal and has to let her go and accept her death.

PowersUnleashed2026-01-27 05:43

Yeah ok I’ll believe it when I see it

DoNotGoSilently2026-01-27 06:14

Yes, so far fetched that a show will depict that making a deal with the devil is a bad idea. It’ll NEVER happen.

PowersUnleashed2026-01-27 09:38

NO SO FARFETCHED THAT THE CONSEQUENCES ARE REVERSAL! Even in the super controversial Spiderman comic when Peter finally remembers MJ again aunt may still lives and it is NOT reversed!

DoNotGoSilently2026-01-27 16:28

You mean the comic arc that is universally hated by all Spider-Man fans? Doubt that’s the one they’ll be copying B.

PowersUnleashed2026-01-27 22:05

Yes and guess what even with consequences aunt May was still alive so even with consequences here guess what her friends revival won’t be reversed

DoNotGoSilently2026-01-27 22:09

Kinda crazy you don’t get the point of the Fustian bargain trope since it’s existed for hundreds of years but whatever, do you. Also aunt may is not brought back from the dead in that story. So…..

Ok-disaster20222026-01-27 05:55

Gonna be perfectly honest I didn't get that far because she was being so stupid I just couldn't continue watching it.

The woman is able to create technology that on Starch seemed able to create, has connections to Wakanda, and blows up her scholarship making pennies for her inventions for hard cash for her construction instead of just putting something together to graduate and get a very high paying job to afford her the resources. Don't get me wrong I have ADHD, I suck at long term planning for myself, and when I've lost a loved one I wasn't making the best decisions. But she never confronted her grief and left that as a wound and a stumbling block in her life for wayyy too long.

And yet all that I can forgive. But my God is she just stupidly bad at crime and so is everyone else on that crew. Like if she was making robots and gadgets for each crime, I could see it as interesting. But she wasn't. She was flying around in her iconic and unique power armor expecting no one would report it, no radar system would track it, and no random cop just wouldn't see it and connect it.

Meanwhile the power storage system in her suit could eliminate the internal combustion engine from highways around the world in a decade. One of the largest difficulties with power grid management is power storage and she casually flies a suit from Boston to Chicago on partial charge in few hours and she only needs to recharge it. Not replace a core with rate earth minerals or a unique isotope. Just electricity. She could market that. And while it's not as dramatic as a first responder power armor suit (which let's be honest the Police union would just load it with guns and tear gas cannisters to commit war crimes against the population, while the fire fighter and EMT busgest would be slashed so the police can afford power armor), cleaning up aerosolized pollution would be huge on the health outcomes of billions of children and adults around the world.

She's a selfish idiot, and nothing I saw in the first half of the show made her any kind of hero.

And don't get me started on the first black woman lead superhero series in Marvel and she turns to crime in like the first episode. Like what the hell were the writers thinking? The most brilliant line in the show was her counselor shutting her down for trying to play the black woman card when she screwed up on her own merits, bit because if racism or misogyny. If you understood the real life bias in engineering departments it's impressive she even made it that far.

I love Riri so I hear you

PowersUnleashed2026-01-27 09:43

Thank you finally someone who gets it!
