I’m in UK, so in theory we already pay for one (BBC through licence fee). Then we have Amazon Prime but mainly for free, fast delivery. I’ve got Netflix as the only streaming service I pay out right for. But I also buy content though Google Play and Chili. And I’d maybe by a month pass for Now TV to watch Sky TV

Okay. Or as the cool kids say, OK

This song was released 18 years ago. How does it still have cultural relevancy now? (Says the 38 year old man)

I’m not going to start using ‘Imma'

Better than Expen-day-bles and Jingle all the Day. Sorry.

Haha. To be honest, think Marvel talked themselves into a corner. What Thanos was really after was to reduce the level of humans who were causing over population - but they can’t say humans because aliens. So then what? Conscious beasts - but what classes as conscious, especially in a universe with strange creatures.

Maybe one of the 14million version has him snapping himself away and then someone just picks up the gauntlet and un-snaps

I thought Ebony Maw was an excellent bad guy. something of the sneering 80s villains about him. 

My way of thinking about it is much like sport ability. They’re all ‘professionals’ but the margins of difference in strengths are small. But, things like having a bad day, home advantage, element of surprise etc all play a part. So in this battle, Hulk was shocked when Thanos fought back, which gave Thanos the upper

And something that bugs me. One thing about the MCU is that some of the heroes don’t have clearly defined powers. It’s most obvious with Thor - how powerful is he without his hammer, away from Asgard etc. Is Thanos actually stronger than the Hulk? 

Ok, so answer me this, was Thanos at risk of turning himself to dust? As one of the universe’s inhabitants, surely yes? Or does the Gauntlet protect him somehow? 

I remember the first reactions to Justice League - they were glowing as well. not saying that Endgame won’t be awesome but just that these reactions from people who are on a high from being first to see, know that if they talk it down they probably won’t get invited to another opening, and are probably writing them in

Now playing

He’ll always be known in the UK for his version of Unchained Melody

He seems to be having fun all by himself. See how long he keeps going

But my point really was that unless you have done some reading on a topic like this (ie defining a literary term) them it's just he said, she said. There's a lot of well written essays on the very topic that I'm not going to summarise for some guy i' ve never met

It was satirising consumer culture

Definition of satire...

Before we get down one of those annoying threads where people just pick away at the smallest points of someones argument while getting further from the initial point I'm just going to go back to my point. Satire doesn't have to be funny. There are debates elsewhere in the net about it - go look there. 

Civil War, Avengers, Ragnarok, GOTG and Winter Soldier would be my top 5. Not a huge fan of first Cap. But, yeah, think this list is fairly spot on
