Why won’t these stupid humans stop trying to get themselves killed so I can please just get back to watching Sanctuary Moon???

Imo, I wouldn’t even have put Spider-man 2 in the running here. It inspired some excitement back half of the year, but even then the dialogue (positive and negative) didn’t inspire anywhere near what the likes of TotK, BGIII, Alan Wake 2, and Starfield did.

Okay but ‘Those Old Scientists’ and ‘Subspace Rhapsody’ are legitimately two of the greatest episodes Star Trek has ever done.

All right, favorite Captain Holt moments.

And Lance Reddick... :(:(

Imo, The Expanse is right up there with BSG and DS9 as all-time greatest scifi tv series.

Oh, I like that a lot!

I’m a huge fan of The Impossible Planet/The Satan Pit, in part because it solidified my love for the series, and I feel like they’re a bit unappreciated.

That moment traumatized me for a month.

Iirc, Patty Jenkins was supposed to direct The Dark World, but that fell through and she left Marvel, and so Portman wanted out. But she was contractually obligated to stay. It’s not a huge surprise she’s kind of phoning in her performance a bit.

I know I’m in the minority, but I prefer Thor’s character pre-Waititi. I know Chris Hemsworth has a lot more fun with him, but I don’t necessarily think it’s a better presentation of the character. (It didn’t help that Love and Thunder kind of just had to repeat the same beats of supposed character growth.)

It was the post-Sam-and-Diane problem. How do you keep a couple dramatically interesting once they’re together? Lots of immature drama! 

Chandler and Monica as a couple has held up really well in retrospect. It’s like the writers wanted to go in the completely opposite direction of Ross and Rachel and so made a really mature, loving, supportive relationship.

I friggin' love 12 Monkeys. It is the most I've ever enjoyed being upset and disturbed by a movie.

But those are all easter eggs with no specific purpose. Until we actually see well-known X-Men characters on-screen with a clear indication of what what role they’ll play in the MCU, all of that is ultimately meaningless.

“Kevin Feige has been working on incorporating the X-Men in the MCU” 

They did it with Gemma Chan (who was cast in Eternals in spite of having already played a different character in Captain Marvel).

If that’s a deterrent for you, you’re missing out. (Putting aside the fact that libraries tend to be one of the few reliable public spaces that don’t shun people experiencing homelessness.) The library has so much information and resources available essentially for free.

They mock her to her face. A lot.

You’re not wrong...but I keep hoping that the potential death of streaming services means going back to an era with more creative freedom and risk on tv. Though even as I write it, I realize it’s probably somewhat naive.
