Hello to everyone reading this!
My name is Joshua but on the interwebs I go by Sir Joshua: The Joy-Rider! I have another blog where I talk about spiritual stuffs but this blog is something I have been considering for a while. You see, a lot of people (I find at least) don't really get the idea of good character and what makes a character someone worth watching. With the popularity of the Transformer movie franchise and with shows like Ultimate Spider-Man coming out, I felt it was time to lay in my two cents on the subject of quality. Remember, just because you enjoy something, it doesn't make it good. Last night I thoroughly enjoyed watching Snakes on a Plane starring Samuel Jackson. Is it a good movie? No way! Is it fun to watch with a bunch of friends? You bet!
This blog aims to understand what makes a character great and what makes a character lousy. I hope to look at things that may not be things most people look at when they consider a character. For instance, I may look at a word associated with a character or maybe a device they use. These things on their own may seem insignificant, but they could reveal something very true to who a character is.
I hope to mostly focus on comic book characters but as I am a bit of a sci-fi and video game nerd as well, those things are not off the table. Also, I have watched a movie or two outside those genres so I will probably go all across pop-culture to explore characters in any setting. Stay tuned, oh readers, for this will get interesting!
Sincerely,
Joy-Rider
