Is this image playing at about 396fps, or is my lemmy browsing app not able to handle this image right?
Oh man, did you know that the capes thing was actually in-world propaganda/disinformation in the movies? Syndrome killed all the people listed as having cape accidents, so it was like a go-to coverup that they died in cape related ways, like the people making the cover stories didn't have the creativity to come up with anything else. And it just ended up making capes seem like a bad idea.
Wait, does the movie actually show that? Are any of the same heroes cited by Edna as cape accidents also shown in Syndrome's database as being killed by him instead?
Yeah, it doesn't point it out, but if you check the names, they are all there.
This got me curious enough to go re-watch the scenes involved. The five supers Edna names are not shown in Syndrome's records (at least not the ones Bob looks up).
Ah, nevermind then. I was taking it on word from someone else. Guess I shouldn't do that, even for something that would be weird to make up.
Always remember that people can just go on the internet and say shit.
Noooooo ooo?
