The last two episodes were 'soso' Trek... but about in the vein of what I think of when I consider OLDSCHOOL so so trek... and not in the way I think of in Picard and Discoveries new tendency to just crap all over the stuff that makes Star Trek what it is. Make no mistake, just cause Star Trek occa...

Holy cow.... for about four or five minutes I thought THIS crop of self congratulatory SMUDGED attack slurs was its own LEGITIMATE topic thread! I was just like 'this crop of political BS is acceptable again!? WTF!?'

Then I got to the end and saw MH's explanation.

*WHEW* You do good work sir!

I'm kind of wary of the Marvel shows now. After Wandavision was essentially overwritten by Dr Strange 2 I'm starting to suspect that they won't count as far as whatever goes on in the movies is concerned. Not that this renders a show completely pointless, but it does sever the connection to the MCU...

Fair enough, as a discussion obviously can't be had with just one or two people. It's just that Shevek, Damselbinder and others regularly engage in discussions of culture and wokeness (history will vindicate me on this point;) so a thread to share perspectives and try to debate the topics in a resp...

Doesn't matter. I won't watch it. The punch bowl is tainted. I'm super shocked. I guess this is the last we can expect to hear from you about this then? Having no cups or spreadable condiments' or Crayola boxes invested here. I'm gonna talk to the person who actually watched it now. Politics slants...

I mean is it a bunch of political stuff not relatable or relevant whenever Daredevil goes and begs advise from his catholic priest? I know I'm going to regret this but there is the idea of playing to the audience. A "catholic" audience is going to be much larger than a muslim one. Plus, a...

But you can't say it's not political. Here are some examples: - Nadia talks about how she learns the history of the "oppressors", and that their history class barely covers Persia or Byzantium. (Byzantium, by the way, was a Greek-based civilization, so that's a writer fail. Perhaps they a...

Okay, have to admit that the line "it is still probably the best Marvel show since Loki" gave me a laugh. Have there been a lot of superhero shows made by Marvel since Loki? But in all seriousness, thank you for adding this series to my radar. I'll give this one a watch based on your reco...

Femina

Anyone out there watching this? It's not reinventing the wheel or nothing which according to who you talk to makes all the difference as though anyone alive anymore is capable of creating something wholly original and unique.... but it is still probably the best Marvel show since Loki. Like all the ...

I think the Mr. X record broke..... then reset to default. Because we're dealing with a broken record. Nah, you started this one man. It's on the page. "Why: Answer. Why: Answer. Why: Answer. Why: Answer? Oh but diversity hiring bleah!" You were basically a fishermen with the hook waiting...

I hope this comes out well. Catwoman only uses a whip. Rodriguez gave us Katherine Zeta-Jones fighting Banderas and Sin City. The mask used in Queen of Swords was sexy as fuck. There is really nothing to say this will suck. It totally May, but Rodriguez has a good track record he even has super her...

...because different people will be writing the show? The show was bad because of the idiots writing it. With new writers it may become better. That's happened many, many times over the years of Dr Who. Am I missing something here? We haven't seen this happen yet and the fact they went with another...

Well I don't have to burn anything down I guess. SNW's is actually GOOD. I have some nitpicks with it... but none that come anywhere close to trumping what's here... and what's here, at least four episodes in, is a show that seems to finally GET it, while providing the kinds of updates to the series...

I like how all these dumb ass things read like 'milliont dollar NFT sold for $12!!!!!!!" It was worthless to begin with and only gained value in the minds of scam artists and marginally wealthy idiots DESPERATE to be in on the 'new thing' It's a ZERO dollar piece of code sold first for one mill...

NFT's area joke created by a pack of scam artists interested in making a quick buck off a quick explosion of bullshit. The proof is in the pudding. The fact that half of ALL the traded 'product' are STOLEN artworks acquired without the artists permission and that there's no system whatsoever in plac...

This is it. This is Star Trek's last f'kn chance for me. Either Strange New Worlds is the optimistic Stat TREK through space that is the series... or I'm burning it down!

The Legal system was not designed to stand up to this level of public scrutiny. The idea that trials would be held open to the public was made to assure the populace that everything in the trial would be above board... but it also made under the assumption that no more than 30 some odd people would ...

Personally I think that Rock crossed a line roasting a woman for a medical condition. You can say some shit and it's the Oscars and it's funny (or generally not) but that seemed lower than normal.

Heaven forefend a show take its time to build toward something instead of just blasting its load prematurely. I've got the opposite take. The first episode was pretty great!

You gotta consolidate all of these into one topic thread. I know the idea is to get hype for each part of the release but its courtesy to not clutter the entire category page with chapters of your story. When you update your story thread it will automatically move up to the top, and its better for t...

I the previews it looks like Ms. marvel has a different set of powers. Instead of stretch its some kind of energy projections. I think with Fantastic 4 coming out they are wary of having two stretchy characters? From the trailers it looks like she'll still do the streatchy stuff... just it'll be so...

This is unavoidable. I dunno quite that I agree in the concept of this 'deep fake' or 'deep fraud' conceptuality.

It's always kind of strange to me whenever a property like this looks to characterize atheism or similar 'nonbelief' as a neo-religious or cultural government. I know Scott claims he's atheistic but I'm not convinced that I believe him based upon the way he portrays such things in his work... no exp...

Yeah. A big ol' wet turd with two episodes of Mandalorian season 2.5 squished into the middle.

Think about it. Boba Fett wasn't even in an entire third of his own show.

He shoulda stayed dead.

Femina

Your points make perfect sense. I’m just coming from the concept of Batgirl being a fantasy character with very limited realism. For a real vigilante character, why would they go with a cape and a bat outfit? It’s already unrealistic to begin with. Then add the lack of using any weapons against peo...

Femina

If Spiderman can wear a skin-tight outfit for Disney/Marvel, why can't Batgirl? The outfit looks exactly like I imagined it would: an ultra-conservative padded outfit desexualizing the character. DC's argument would be, of course, that Batgirl should not be sexualized. Unfortunately, she was sexual...

Femina

It's a pretty good recreation of what is basically her current comic book look. Personally I'd RATHER have a batgirl with the same kind of 'tactical armor' appearance we get as Batman (so mostly just like her new 52 look) BUT............. I doubt very much that's practical in live action for deliver...

Femina

Sure you can! I for one can think of nothing more heroic than getting shot to death by my enemies while attempting to outclass them with an antiquated and inferior weaponry! If she can succeed as a heroine with a sword in a world full of GUNS then it's plenty heroic! True. Batman doesn't use guns. ...

Femina

Hang on? It's contemporary? That's bad. Nobody has a sword now. You can't heroically fight people with a sword if nobody else has one. You're just stabbing people. Sure you can!

It's hard to say what numbers that film would have done were it not for the dreaded coof, but I agree with the general sentiment that sex sells, at least to me.
