Do you think any superheroes enjoy horror movies? It seems pointless when you have a perspective of "I have superpowers."

I like to imagine Clark Kent being a complete pussy when it comes to horror films

They probably watch stuff more grounded in reality, like Psycho or Texas Chainsaw Massacre to see how humanity can really be fucked up and how they probably can't save everyone who goes through that shit.

I think the ones who can empathize might like them.

Sure, Superman's not directly threatened by most horror villains or monsters, but Clark is also empathetic and caring, and if he can suspend his disbelief I could see him fearing for the movie's characters.

I doubt those films would give him nightmares, though.

And jump scares can get most superheroes.

Moonknight is probably all over that shot. Mostly to take notes on how to best brutalize people.

Alright, its movie night at The Watchtower. What movie does each hero bring, whats their snack, and how do they react?

Which horror movie villain would be the biggest threat to a superhero?

Freddy is the only one who would pose any threat.

Freddy Krueger, Pinhead, and arguably Jigsaw since he has like a dozen apprentices to continue his work

Oh, it's got to be Krueger. Either him or Pinhead.

When he gets really into it, do you think Clark smashes the image of a horror monster when it attacks its victims?

I'm sure he has better self-control than that in public, but I could see him wrecking a TV or two at home.

Superman brings the first avenger
Batman brings Civil War
Wonder Woman brings Winter Soldier
Green Lantern brings Black Panther
Martian Man hunter brings Age of Ultron
Hawkgirl brings Spiderman Homecoming.

Flash: Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
Literally a snack bar, and a bucket of popcorn for everyone else

Superman- Remember the Titans (or Savings Private Ryan)
BBQ food he prepared

Green Lantern- Snakes on a Plane
Beer just Beer

Batman - Zorro (for the fifth time) only soda and popcorn, no alcohol allowed. No talking, no cellphone, or any recording device

Plastic Man- Ace Ventura Nature calls, he forgot snacks

Wonder Woman- Casa Blanca, served with Greek food. Most the league isn't hungry

Martian Manhunter- Dr. Doolittle, Oreos for him

Hawkgirl- Troy a roasted Boar and a keg, no one leaves until the keg is empty

I'd like to think it depends on the hero's mindset. Somebody like Superman might enjoy different types of horrors than, say, Spider-Man. Probably depends on how many people they think they can realistically reach, or if they even have those kinds of thoughts at all.
The best horror movies make you care about their characters in some way, so that you don't want to see those horrors visited upon said characters, so even if a hero couldn't relate to somebody without invulnerability, for some reason, they can still be afraid and feel helpless along with those characters.

Clark Kent likes Metallica and has every CD.

Pretty sure there was also an issue where Bruce Wayne had some rock CDs

They have lives outside of superheroing. Them liking horror movies wouldn't be that shocking.

Superman - To Kill A Mockingbird. Brings some classic popcorn and soda.

Batman - The Mask of Zorro. Doesn't bring a snack.

Wonder Woman - Alien. Brings a bag of Skittles.

The Flash - Who Framed Roger Rabbit. Brings pretzel sticks.

Green Lantern - Top Gun. Brings some weird alien food he discovered while on some distant planet.

Aquaman - Conan The Barbarian (1982). Also brings popcorn.

Martian Manhunter - E.T. The Extraterrestrial. Brings Chocos.

I always struck J'onn as the guy who brings the animated family film

He could take some additional tips from The Shadow.

I see Bruce watching Zorro alone or with the Bat-family in the cave, myself.

>Zatanna changes into a boy while Alucard talks about romantic comedies

Superman: To Kill A Mockingbird, he brings chicken wings for the gang, he tears up.

Batman: Zorro, no snack, he's smiling for once.

Wonder Woman: Moana, she brings olives, she sings along to the songs.

Green Lantern: Top Gun, chips and beer, he enjoys himself.

Flash: Breaking Away, cheetos, he wants people to enjoy the movie he likes.

Aquaman: Finding Nemo, popcorn, he cries reminiscing about his son.

Martian Manhunter: Spirited Away, oreos, J'onn wants to watch another Ghibli movie afterwards.

What kind of movies do you think the Batman rogues enjoy ?

Joker watches Schindler's List because its his favorite comedy. Im sure any heist movie Selina watches leaves her annoyed saying "Thats silly, I could have come up with a better plan than that!"

Scarecrow- Saw
Penguin; American Gangster, Lock, any Guy Richie movie
Poison Ivy- Fern Gully
Riddler- Zodiac, Law abiding citizen
Mr. Freeze- Titanic
Two Face- any denzel washington movie

Mr Freeze: Citizen Kane

Scarecrow: An assortment of B-horror films like The Screaming Skull or The Brain that wouldn't die.

Two-Face: American Psycho

Ivy: Little Shop of Horrors

Catwoman: Fifty Shades? There's an older film that has a similar theme of debauchery.

Riddler and Joker: Who the fuck knows; they're too enigmatic and/or chaotic.

Mr. Freeze-the big sick
Scarecriw-scarecrow
Two face-Liar Liar
Catwoman-Annie
Poison Ivy-the happening
Penguin- the Penguins of Madagascar
riddler-seven
And the Joker the man who laughs

>There's an older film that has a similar theme of debauchery.

Fifty Shades?

Secretary - It's a much better version desu

10/10

Catwoman strikes me as a gal who likes Burlesque

>riddler-seven
Damnit. I was questioning whether or not to post again so I could say SE7EN.

So what about Clayface, Harley, Black Mask, Slade, Firefly, Killer Moth, and Condiment King? I'm thinking Goodburger for Condiment King.

I always love Superman liking things no one expects him to like.

>Much like Nemo, I too am an outsider in an unfamiliar world....
>That's great J'onn can we watch the fucking movie

Clayface- The Artist
Harley- National Lampoons Christmas Vacation
Black Mask- Wolf of Wall Street
Firefly-Backdraft
Killer Moth- Mothra or Kick Ass
Condiment King- Julia and Julia

Do keep in mind some people's superpowers are shit like Soap Bubble Control or Squirrel Empathy or 2-second precognition or slightly accelerated rate of healing.

Joker: A Clockwork Orange is his favorite. Mostly watches edgy torture porn or classic comedies. Killed the goon who suggested The Man Who Laughs to him.

Riddler: Zodiac. Seven. Movies of that sort. Loves to rub his film knowledge on people's faces and writes those really obnoxious thesis just to show he "got" the movie.

Scarecrow: Prefers to read books but occasionally he watches some B-horror movie to pass the time. Secretly loves The Wizard of Oz.

Penguin: Claims to be a classic noir/french film buff at social events, but he really just likes to watch crime films, preferably starring Joe Pesci or Robert DeNiro. Also watches bird documentaries and becomes upset when they depict inaccurate information.

Two-Face: Doesn't watch movies, prefers books or tv shows. To Kill A Mockingbird used to be his favorite movie, but it hurts too much to watch now

Hugo Strange spends half of his free time watching monster or gore films.
The other half he spends watching porn of people in Batman costumes that he commissioned.

The Mad Hatter's favorite is not any Alice in Wonderland; he just watches Dr Who reruns while looking at pictures of Alice.

The Ventriloquist cries during The Adventures of Baron Munchhausen and doesn't know why he keeps watching it, or why his puppet keeps threatening him when he does.

Solomon Grundy likes Young Frankenstein. It's funny and he thinks it's about him.

Zsasz keeps watching some fucked up porn, and Evilution 2 because it shows the girls dead after being whores.

Deadshot likes Quigly Down Under and The Pursuit of Happiness.

Ra's al Ghul keeps forcing other Demon's Head members to watch A Boy and His Dog with him like it's a precautionary tale.

Joker: Clockwork Orange or Fear and Loathing
Two-Face: The Verdict
Penguin: The Godfather
Poison Ivy: Soylent Green
Mr Freeze: Romeo and Juliet (1968)
Catwoman: Ocean's 11 (Sinatra's one)
Scarecrow: Children of the Corn
Riddler: Seven

Freddy, Pinhead (All the cenobites, really), and maybe Candyman are high tier threats to pretty much everyone, possibly even Superman. These are the fuckers you need to call a high level mystic, preferably someone with "Dr." In front of their name. And yeah, eventually these characters get taken out by normal mortal teenagers, but not before they murder a fuck ton of people.

Characters like Jason and Michael Myers on the other hand could be a fucking nightmare for the average street level hero just flat out due to their immortality and surprising level of physical strength you might not expect. Not to mention their supernatural levels of stealth and ability to just pop up wherever.
Jason Vorhees alone is easily Luke Cage level super strength (Which last I checked was around 3 tons)
And characters like these won't just stand over a defeated young hero to gloat as is customary to give them time to turn the tables. They're just going to brutally murder your Daredevils, your Frank Castles, and your Black Widows without a second thought.

Freddy and Babadook would be very credible threats, the latter to Batman, mostly.

thread topic aside, pic related is Sup Forums kino if it wasn't for the servers being filled with bugs.

Considering Jason is part of a clan of witches, literal pact with hell type, and Michael has been hinted at being connected with human sacrifices to a Celtic god? I've always wondered if that had something to do with their weird stealth BS and not just their durability.

But yeah you don't call in Captain America for something that has a knack for stabbing people from behind. Or cutting peoples' heads off so hard that they stay attached to the body. And any cenobite could prove a threat to almost any hero, or villain, as long as they aren't busy playing lethal BSDM games. Hell they armor themselves with the skin of a fallen angel, and any of them can summon those chains to defend themselves.

Something like that.
Jason and Michael are also both really, really fucking smart. Something you don't think about, yet realize they are once you look at the shit they do.
Hell, Jason taught himself to survive in the woods all by himself from like, age 8 until adulthood.

Sooo... Strange, Fate and Constantine?

Krampus.
