The End wasn't The End - Found a new home after the great exodus of 2012

In Vino Veritas
Cosmic horror too often devolves into “big scary monster from space wants to destroy the world”.
The problem is the “wants” part. The essence of cosmic horror isn’t just scary space monsters, it is fundamentally the horror of apathy.
The cosmic space God doesn’t want to destroy Earth, that gives humanity too much purpose and importance in the narrative. It weakens the horror to know that humanity, or worse an individual human, is worthy of the malice of an incomprehensibly powerful being.
Picture some (sentient) insects in a field. One moment they’re frolicking around their little world, the next minute an unfathomably large object darkens their sky. The next thing they know, the world is ending. Buildings are destroyed, entire generations of bug families are snuffed out in seconds, everything they ever knew is ending around them. What horrible, malicious being could do this? What could we have done to anger it? This is what the bugs think.
However, the thing that has genocided their entire civilization is two teenagers fucking on a blanket out on a farmhouse field.
These beings, unknowable and uncaring about the bug civilization do not even give a passing thought to the horror below. It is not even “beneath” them, as even that implies some level of concern. It is entirely a nonissue.
A good cosmic horror story scares you not with malice, but with utter apathy.

More or less feel the same way, even though i tend to think of them being more scary for your inability to understand their motivation.
I always compare it mentally to Alice in Wonderland. It makes sense to everyone except the viewer or viewpoint characters.

Even worse when you bring that to film.
Like, the very essence is it being “Incomprehensible”. But. Like. If it’s on film then it’s comprehensible. By simply showing it you are showing that it can be comprehended.
The closest film I’d say got “it” right was Annihilation. The “final monster” so to speak started out as a fractal, which did a good job leaning into the “can’t explain” part while still giving the audience something to look at. Even then while the entire movie dealt with some heavy concepts, it still lesser than the book trilogy it was based on.

Krass, the “Ram Ma’am” of the cgi He-man show looks more like Stonedar and Rokkon than she looks like Ram Man.
I also just watched the epidode that introduces the robot Orko. Certainly a unique take.

Official poster for Ms Marvel was leaked. Still looks like they’re changing her powers to hard-light constructs over size-shifting.

Well my issue is more that they are doing this to accommodate the worst member of a team that is a joke now, and after they literally gave 2 people movies just to prevent Carol’s from getting made it’s a bad look for them to still be fucking over female heores for less popular male ones,

Reed from F4, he’s literally only relevant in modern comics because he’s Dr Doom’s arch enemy and his team are connected to a few big names, otherwise ben and Johnny are the actually well liked members some times Sue if she’s in her badass will create a forcefield in your arteries if you threaten her family mode,
