It’s a slight reassurance that reactionaries just have the smoothest brains no matter where they dwell. If your take is “boys aren’t growing up with a specific fictional hero to look up to,” I have to assume that cranium of yours is neuron-deficient. Read more
This reminds me of how back in the early ‘80s, Stan Lee was shopping around a Broadway musical of Captain America in which Steve Rogers had become a jaded, middle-aged Archie Bunker type, overweight and balding, until his faith in the USA was renewed and he once again becomes a defender of justice and freedom.

But how does it compare to the Batman musical?
If I had to review this show right now I’d call it Low Rent, that’s for sure. I couldn’t tell if this sequence was spoofing Good Broadway or Bad Broadway, and I’ve watched The Apple several times of my own volition.
But like I said in the show thread, ROGERS was absolutely produced by the MCU Oliver Putnam in my… Read more

“Ancient immortal warlord here, nine centuries’ experience running my own criminal empire. Finally got to watch Shang-Chi at the weekend, and hoo-boy do we have to talk about the logistics of the Ten Rings. 1/”
Of all the things that I found wildly fantastical in the movie (which I loved!) — unrealistic action scenes, an underground fighting ring for superpowered individuals, mystical villages, dragons, Awkwafina learning how to be a Hawk Eye level archer in like 4 days (less?), faceless chicken cats, Ben Kingsley — the… Read more
Ha, that’s amazing! That’s some “Superman is a Dick” level fucking-with-the-mere-mortals. Read more
It will never not be funny to me that Dr. Strange’s most significant relationship was dissolved because of Ben Franklin
Obviously they can’t do a proper Dr Strange movie if they don’t include Stephen’s greatest nemesis: Benjamin Franklin
