Oh, I think they probably edited just a few more things than that. Sometimes a show like The Sopranos will start shooting alternate “clean” takes that can be edited in for syndication so that the shows will make sense in a cut for TV stations that need to answer to Standards & Practices. I would imagine that there…

I believe that it was actually conceived as a three-parter, and possibly may have been subsequently condensed to a two-parter. From what I can gather, the entire Phoenix Saga is not completed in this movie, and it leads directly on to another film. At this point, it will depend on how well the movie is received and…

That was my thought. if you have the Monitor and the Anti-Monitor, then you have a recipe for a crisis on infinite earths, or three earths.

Clearly, brilliance in managing a tech business is no qualification for being an entertainment programming director. Tast in tech products has absolutely nothing to do with taste in what content gets played on those products.  It’s tough to see how Apple can achieve a competitive position in original programming…

I don’t think you know what a “dad bod” is.

I’m not sure what’s supposed to be so “questionable” about the trailers. I think you are confusing what comics fans know about Venom with what the general moviegoing public knows about the character, which is basically what they have seen in Spider-Man 3 or maybe some cartoons. What the trailers showed was kind of a…

Sometimes fans don’t fully understand that the Venn diagram of what they want to see and what can actually be successfully sold to the eager moviegoing public can often have a very, very small area of overlap.

Yes, yes, Skrull in disguise. My typo. I know the difference.

If I understand correctly, certain specific Skrull characters were deemed to be part of Fox’s Fantastic Four IP. The Skull race in general, however, was ruled as being common property between the two studios, possibly similar to the way different versions of Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver were allowed to be common…

I’m almost willing to bet that there will be a scene where Coulson makes a throwaway comment about Kree blood and what it could do. And I’m not someone who insists that Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. needs to be super consistent with what’s going on in the movies.

Well, it’s sort of an origin story, no? I’m all in for punching old ladies on the bus. (Yes, I know it’s a Kree in disguise, but still, have you ever been to Zabar’s at any time of day? You’ll want to punch old ladies, too.)

I would have thought that Stewart should have been the new Charlie with his splendid voice, but I am predicting that whoever plays Charlie will remain a mystery, and won’t be announced until the first trailer at the earliest, and possibly not until close to the film’s premiere. It will be recorded in seclusion, away…

First of all, if Supergirl, the movie, is set on the 1970s, and Wonder Woman 1984 is in the 80s, how are we supposed to believe that when Superman showed up in Man of Steel that nobody had ever seen a superpowered superhero before in the DCEU?

I would rather she be her own Mary Poppins rather than having to attempt to mimic Julie Andrews (which would be impossible). It will make for a better performance and movie in general.

Something wrong with that?

I really hope that’s not the only outfit she is going to wear throughout the entire series. Maybe there is a reason why she is dressed like an 80s streetwalker hopefully for a brief time in the pilot only? Hopefully? Here’s hoping that someone clocked the horrified fan response to her look in enough time to make some…

Oh, but then WB and DC wouldn’t be able to put the cart before the horse, which is their usual M.O. for movies. You are suggesting that they might be capable of developing their comic properties in a logical, deliberate sort of way.

Not to put too fine a point on it, but some “fans” seem to go ballistic when a person of color is cast in a role where they didn’t imagine one should be. As for the costume, I can’t see how many of Starfire’s more well known costumes could actually be reproduced in real life on a purely practical level, and we should…

Seriously, it takes huge teams of people to get a minor movie made, let alone a major studio release. Should I rob Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga of their potential success just because they had to hold their noses and work with a disgusting pig like Jon Peters (probably on a superficial level) to get their movie made?…

You should watch what there is of the show so you can appreciate it for what it is. There are so many moments that are unlike anything that I have seen on TV that it’s worth it regardless of what may or may not become of the show going forward. I don’t know that getting rid of Bryan Fuller has ever improved the final…
