Nitpick, but those are beets.

Secret maker but not the OP...

[(Anonymous)]

Are they? DARN IT TO HECK. (As you can see, I don't eat either vegetable...)

Cheers,

a secret maker

Haha, sorry. I'm a whore for turnips, ignore me.

Heeeeeeeee!
And, also - fucking yes. I *loathe* when characters do stupid crap, or are just stupid, and that's basically the only reason anything every works out for their opposition. The opposite sucks, too; when a character is dumbed down for a 'special guest' to be framed as awesome (happened on Show SO MANY TIMES).

Question to OP...

[(Anonymous)]

...Do you like Optimus Prime? Have you ever heard of him? ( He is the robot protagonist in Hasbro's Transformers franchise. )

Because he sounds exactly like the kind of hero you are describing in your secret. ( Unless you think that all versions of Megatron are exactly like a bunch of brainless turnips... sigh. )

I don't think the villains are necessarily stupid now (and I don't mind a stupid villain, stupid but chaotic villains are very fun)...but it's clear no thought has been put into a lot of plans, and that annoys me.

You made me remember this trope:

Villain: (With the MC almost dead) return to me when you're stronger than me to fight again

Villain: (After being defeated by the MC for the power of love/friendship/being stronger/etc) I should've killed you when I had the chance to!

Wholeheartedly agreed. As a villain fan, this is why I have not been remotely interested in going to a movie for literally years. Movies that are set up like this give all the characters I find relatable such massive brain damage and lack of depth that I have no reason to watch. It's like they're not allowed to be funny or sexy or passionate or even make taboo but potentially valid points anymore.

So I'm over here on the periphery of fandom re-reading Tamburlaine the Great and some (unrelated but high-flying) fanfics. But from what I've seen, it's a desert, if you're looking for worthwhile villains in recently made anything, these days.
