Yeah. I like some of those ideas. I must confess, mine was a throwaway ‘big stars of the 80s’ thing just to accommodate the original Arnie idea.

It’s limited to major box-office names of the mid-80s. And that’s a pretty white list too. Yueh, in the book, is physically described in borderline Fu Manchu terms. Better to ignore that than lean into it!

I think Duncan Idaho should be frozen in carbonite toward the end of the second movie and brought back at the beginning of the third one.

I see what you did there. And I like it.

Ok - who ya got?

Prometheus and Covenant were, for me, very pretty looking but utterly unnecessary. If you explain the Alien, you rob it of its menace.

i’d never thought of that before but that is some BRILLIANT fan-casting!

Nicholson does appear in Terms of Endearment sequel Evening Star but it’s not exactly io9 fare so there’d be no shame in not having seen it (I haven’t!)

I found it really weird that at a screening of TENET this week I saw a trailer for Black Widow that was still insisting it was coming in May…

Deke = Dazzler.

It’ll be made on location on Pandora, using Unobtanium cameras.

I am an absolute sucker for Japanese superhero logos and I will almost certainly be buying a The Suicide Squad tee even if the film’s a stinker.

I have a similar (but not quite so huge) print of his JLA group shot and I would love to be able to buy a giclee of this to hang as a companion piece on the opposite wall.

I mean, it can’t be helped and it’s nobody’s fault but anyone who bought a one-year Disney+ sub on the basis of all that cool Marvel content must be feeling pretty silly right now.

Is it just me that can’t find that Loki landing page?

My thoughts exactly. I learned to read from being handed piles of Batman comics as a small boy. When my contemporaries grew out of comic books I never quite lost the Batman habit. As an adult, the idea of seeing the Justice League on the big screen blew my mind. And even though the DCEU movies have been undeniably…
