wcw43921 Posted December 18, 2023 Report Share Posted December 18, 2023 I have seen Stallone's "Cobra"--and the similarities between it and Frank Miller's "Dark Knight" are downright astounding. Both lead characters are play-by-their-own-rules types with little to no respect for higher authority or the rights of the accused. Both have to contend with what are basically armies of murder cultists led by a monstrous yet charismatic figure. Both have to contend with people in authority who are, quite frankly, idiots. (With Cobra one of his fellow detectives claims his "army theory" is a bit weak--this after over a dozen cars attack Cobra and the witness he's trying to protect while transporting her to a supposedly safe location. With Batman it's the Arkham psychologist with the Harpo hair, the Chaplin mustache, and the smiley-face T-shirt who certifies both Two-Face and The Joker--The JOKER!--as being fit to return to society.) And finally, there are these bits of dialogue-- BATMAN: "This isn't a battlefield--it's an operating table. And I'm the surgeon." COBRA: "You're the disease. I'm the cure." You could almost accuse one of swiping off the other, had they not been released the same year. Cobra On Wikipedia Ragitsu 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobra On Wikipedia You are not wrong, but if you were of an age to attend lots and lots of action movies of the era, you'd find that _both_ were derivative of the genre as a whole at that time: the anti-HERO edgelord stuff ran _deep_ at the time.

First time I've been namechecked on a Youtube video! My beard grows slowly on the sides, but the mustache and goatee grow well. I've currently a short full beard, but here's a picture from last year when I had grown it longer. tkdguy and Duke Bushido 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
