Am I saying *who* is incapable? Scarlet Witch? No, I don’t believe I am. In fact, she’s one of the most powerful mutants there are. So powerful, in fact, that it doesn’t matter if she wears nothing, a man’s business suit, Mom jeans, the costume she has now, Thor’s costume, or the shorts I wear to sleep in sometimes..…
Better question: why doesn’t Tony just make EVERYONE Iron Man suits? I mean, it’s not like it would help Hulk, and Thor’s a freakin’ god, but Black Widow, Cap, Hawkeye, Falcon, Scarlet Witch, they’re all pretty vulnerable to old-fashioned bullets and stuff. He’s shown that he’s willing and able to make a full Iron…
Yeah I don’t think Scarlet, Hawkeyes, Caps costumes give them extra protection. I mean if we gave her a full turtle neck then...I still don’t see how that is going to make her anywhere less vulnerable.
I always got the sense that the MCU Scarlet Witch really wasn’t that into the whole superhero business. She may have submitted to experimentation and received her powers out of revenge, but she never intended to live a life of slugfests, when she sees where that motivation leads she is mostly trying to pick up the…
They were itching to jump on someone who just wanted to see boobs on an actress, but I couldn’t care less who actually wears what or how revealing it is. As long as it looks cool.
Forgive me, but I fail to see how that concept costume is at all less sexualized or more tactical than the screen version. If the cleavage bothers Ms. Olsen, fair enough, but I honestly didn’t even notice it until this article. If there are creepers actually titilated by that inch of skin, then I don’t see how…
Damn people are being super mean. He’s not saying that she should be naked, he’s just pointing out that she really could wear whatever she wants.
I respect her desire and think that costuming should work with her and throw a bit more lace at the top of her costume. That said the cleavage level she shows would.not even be considered excessive in an office or store job. Wonder Woman shows miles more skin. It is not a crazily sexy outfit.
Man people are being mean to you. In any case, the argument that three more inches of lace at the top of her outfit would somehow.make her safer is silly. We have been given zero indication that her costume is any kind of starktek armor or even particularly thick leather.
She’s uncomfortable with the cleavage (doubt). We get it, feminist movement and all, she has the right to an opinion, but c’mon, it’s not like the comic book costume has that much more protection, and it’s not like by the kind of movie there are cleavage close-ups.
Only if your WYSIWYG editor is too stupid to add the after the first space. Oh, and you can have my second space when you pry it from my cold, dead hands.
I see this all the time when I edit copy. People also seem incapable of picking a side on the Oxford comma debate as well, so I’m always going through and fixing those to be consistent.
I’m not nearly forty. I’ve never used a typewriter (may have tapped on one a few times, that’s it), and I definitely know the difference between monospace and proportional width fonts. I’ve created a few fonts of my own back in high school for programming projects.
...wait, what sort of heathen doesn’t use 2 spaces?
Tossing the double-space after a sentence is just plain reasonable. It was invented to solve a problem we no longer have. Typesetters had issues, but digital type doesn’t have those issues. There’s nothing easier to read about a sentence that has two spaces after it, because we don’t have universal space sizing.…
Being over 40 doesn’t make you a baby boomer. That also includes most Generation X. And being part of Gen X, I’m very apathetic about this issue.
Two spaces. Full stop. Notice the two spaces after each period.
Part of my job is reading/editing stuff from my other team members. I’m an old, meaning I learned to type on a typewriter that works just fine without electricity. So I’m a two-spacer. Mostly. Most of my younger colleagues are one-spacers. Mostly.
Two spaces. Otherwise, logically, there should be more of a pause between words inside a sentence than there is between sentences. Commas, colons, semicolons: all of them are bigger than a period; therefore they have more of a ‘separating’ feel than a period - unless you add a space to the period. Then, sentences are…
