Does it have to be spoken?

Marvel Studios didn’t have the movie rights to Doctor Doom until Disney acquired Fox in 2019. His IP is bundled with the Fantastic Four. And you’re right, he’s one of Marvel’s biggest and best loved villains and long overdue for a cinematic portrayal that does justice.

Xochitl Gomez was at the Shang-Chi premiere and her interviews made it sound like she’s appearing in it before Multiverse Of Madness. Maybe America Chavez is in an end credits teaser for Dr Strange? I haven’t been able to confirm it, but either way she looked fantastic on the red carpet.

“Try calling me Captain Genocide again.”

I will be voting for whatever progressive Independent runs in 2024, because I will never vote for Biden again.

Why on earth would human bartender Jackie Daytona return to a show about vampires? They already have a full cast such as celebrated songwriter and legendary lover Laszlo Cravensworth, a “vam-pire” whose storied exploits could saturate multiple television serials at once, much like he saturated your great aunts and…

Back when these movies came out it felt like another factor was all these Baby Boomer actors and actresses, now in their 30s and headed for middle age, defiantly proving they could get toned and naked on the big screen and rake in millions. Being the faces of youth culture and sexual liberation was two decades behind…

The first comics I ever got into were late-80's First Comics series: Badger, Nexus, and John Ostrander’s Grimjack tying the multiverse together at Munden’s Bar. I wish they were better known just because they’re so enjoyable.

Harley Quinn also has the massive advantage of being able to use the full roster of DC heroes and villains — Batman, Superman, Joker, Catwoman, Riddller, etc — and take liberties like killing them off. I watched Birds Of Prey right after Harley Quinn and realized both were trying to do similar things with Harley, but…

I’m still driving the 2006 Mini Cooper I bought nearly new in 2009. It’s expensive to maintain and the cabin is starting to disintegrate. But the drive train has held up beautifully, and I’d rather keep a pricey 15 year old car alive than spend one second with an auto dealer.

What I remember about the Starr Report was that I took an airline flight the day it was published, and at both airports the bookstores and snack shops had tables set out with stacks and stacks of copies and huge promotional posters. A massive amount of money had gone into making sure everyone knew this open ended…

And just six years ago that completely oblivious Batgirl “tribute” cover of Barbara being brutalized by Joker. I’m not going to dignify it with a link or picture. I hope Leslie Grace has a No Killing Joke clause in her contract.

The Blob’s 1988 remake never gets any love, but it’s briskly entertaining and puts its flesh dissolving liquid antagonist to full imaginative potential.

He voices the cantina patrons that order one perfectly normal human alcohol drink.

If Thor can leap into battle to Immigrant Song, Loki and Sylvie can charge Alioth to not-quite-Wagner. It’s a nice reminder just who these Lokis are.

Speaking of Lovecraft Country it’s also pretty amazing Hunter B-15 was Ruby Baptiste (as well as Christina-as-Ruby) not to mention Wummi herself. I hope she keeps getting great roles.

A major takeaway from Season 1 is that Natalie Holt is a phenomenal composer. I just loved the music and how it kept building and reinventing through the final episode.

Seeing Lovecraft Country it was mind blowing to discover Jonathan Majors was the same actor from Last Black Man In San Francisco where his character was like a physically different person.

So glad to see American Spendor and Ghost World listed. Reading Eightball back in the day, the “Ghost World” installments gradually took over entire issues as Dan Clowes rode an inspiration high. It felt like a miracle later seeing Enid and Becky on the big screen with so much of the book’s spirit.
