    What If...?

    To me it felt like the big What If? change in the Dr. Strange ep wasn't what if Christine died instead of his hands getting crushed (he lost his heart instead of his hands). It was What if Steven Strange wasn't a selfish narcissist. From the first moments of the episode it was totally different...

    What If...?

    Definitely one of the weaker episodes so far. When Wasp went down I knew already she was going to get up later, and still be big. They didn't think this one out as well as they should have. That was just one of the story points they could have thought out better. Did not help at all that this...

    Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021)

    a big monster at the end doesn't make it the villian, come on dude.

    The Matrix Resurrections (2021)

    There is no Lucian in the entire book series, let alone that movie. Just another shit-take around these parts. Thanks for calling it out early.

    Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021)

    Very enjoyable. One of the most relatable "villians" since they started the MCU. Action sequences were excellent and didn't have the quick cut bullshit to hide flaws or make it look better, especially the early fights. I'd knock a point or so off for the final act and all the CGI heavy dragon...

    The Mandalorian

    Latest rumor I heard that sounds interesting is that there is a redesign or paint scheme update on Boba's armor so the viewer will be able to differentiate between 3 distinct time periods that the show will feature.

    The Mandalorian

    There's been a little chatter lately on a few podcasts and such that it was coming early, with absolutely nothing of substance to back the claim up. They said December from the get go and its going to be December.

    What If...?

    Yeah this episode is exactly what I was hoping for from this series. Great episode, great emotional impact, and awesome to see alternate versions facing off against each other. Doesn't hurt that Dr. Strange and the magic and cosmic stuff is my favorite part of the Marvel universe.

    Star Wars general purpose movie stuff

    Honestly I don't see Mara Jade ever fitting into the continuity now, but I will admit there is a lot of empty years story wise between Mando season 2 and Force Awakens, it could happen I guess. I hope not.

    Star Wars general purpose movie stuff

    Its already been established as that after the Bad Batch finale. I find the Mara Jade stuff very hard to believe in general, but especially tied to BoBF.

    Wow, looks great. And they haven't shown shit yet!

    Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021)

    for the record, that is a fan made trailer and thank god, those effects looked fucking terrible.

    What If...?

    This is the rumor I have been hearing the last week or so. This series is actually building an entire alternate phase 1-4 from the MCU that just finished, within a single one of the other multiverses. All of these episodes are tied together although we have no indication of that so far in the...

    Batman: The Long Halloween, Part One

    Batman: The Long Halloween, Part One

    DC has a great track record with their animated division. This is pretty good, but not great. They changed a few things from the comic version that I don't think made it better, and the immediate jump from the end of episode one to where episode two starts is quite jarring and not set up at all...

    Star Wars: The Bad Batch

    Pretty sure they are putting up all the episodes at once for this one.

    Star Wars: The Bad Batch

    Aphra is an archeologist, not a medical doctor. She basically the SW Indiana Jones. But yeah, I agree with your guess on the location.

    Star Wars: The Bad Batch

    Won't sugar coat it, the first part of this finale was stronger but this was a great finale. Tons of subtle dialogue along the way concerning Crosshair and how most of the Batch and Omega felt about him. Has to be by far the strongest first season of any animated series they have done. Looking...

    The Suicide Squad (2021)

    I watched this for a second time and felt noticeably more positive about it the second time. I was all in on the overhype train the first time, mostly my own fault. I enjoyed the back half much more than the first time through. The first half I find almost impossible to dislike.

    The Suicide Squad (2021)

    I followed the hype leading up to this release pretty closely. That shit got pretty hyperbolic really quick and I was buying all in. Based on the pre-hype I would say I was a bit disappointed. But just watching this with a good grounding in what the SS is all about, I think this did a pretty...

    Star Wars: The Bad Batch

    Incredible episode. The use of music cues in this is absolutely top notch. This series had some bumps in the middle but the final three episodes are stacking up to be outstanding. Holy shit.

    Star Wars: The Bad Batch

    Holy shit, we are totally back on track across the board. That was excellent.

    Been dealing with it for years. Easier said than done on all this I know, but...Get out of the house for the day. During my worst periods I would just set a plan of heading to some place interesting a few hours away just to have a mission in the morning. I was able to string quite a few...

    The Documentary Thread

    I thoroughly enjoyed the Sparks Brothers documentary and would recommend it highly to anyone into 70's and 80's music, more specifically musicians who pushed boundaries after their example. These two were hugely influential and flew under the radar for most people.

    Loki

    exactly this, nailed it.

    Loki

    Because that was the exact moment her heroic future in that timeline diverged from Loki being a shitheel in the Sacred Timeline happened.
  36. Miguex

    Loki

    I've been convinced since that episode that she was going to be a truly heroic Loki with no trickster side. The dialogue she says while playing with the toys is about defending Asgard from dragons/evil as I recall.

    holy shit dude why do you waste your time in this, and many other, threads. Fucking energy vampire.

    Star Wars: The Bad Batch

    And in the first 5 minutes, they've tied Clone Wars, Rebels, and Bad Batch together in a huge way. Fucking awesome. I expected the one cameo, but not the other.

    Star Wars: The Bad Batch

    Totally awesome episode. Opened up a whole bunch of potential with what Omega actually is and the way they are tying all of the established eras together is pretty incredible. I did not expect this much from this series.

    Star Wars: The Bad Batch

    Wildcard of this ep is the Ion engine wrecking Crosshair. I do wonder where that is going. Pretty sure we are going to get the out of this. This series could continue to deliver more than we expected.
