Really good point. That increases the depth, and adds another level to the story. And, if you ask me, that’s part of what good writing is: layers, mirroring, etc.: literary techniques and devices. Plus, we’re talking about it, so that adds another point to the scoreboard; if storytelling is good, it allows for…

The scene mirrored Luke and Yoda’s ESB scenes where Yoda scoffed at Luke’s military rations and happily ate what he hunter-gathered in the Degobah swamps. Back then, before Luke knew Yoda was a Jedi Master, Luke was grossed out by Yoda’s swamp grub. The stunned, young, in-need-of-training-by-a-Jedi-Master, version of…
I forgot about that. And also AoS made on off-camera appearance in Avengers 2 as the “lifeboat” people.
I am not sure either. I agree that is post “Avengers” due to the art department and prop department ensuring newspapers were in the background throughout the first seasons of the various series. Beyond that, I remember multiple tongue-in-cheek references to the big screen heroes in various bits of dialogue, so we know…
It would be a shame, or a waste, or both, not to have some of the Netflix heroes make at least some sort of appearance. I think that Daredevil and Luke Cage, at the very least (as it would be out of character for Jessica Jones to go into full hero mode), would be the two who would go see what the hell is happening and…
You are so right. Very clever thinking and follow through. If only I could give a million stars to this. (Why are you in the greys!?!) I’ll now be pondering this for a while.
Can you imagine an alternate earth where Star Wars bombed and Hubbard’s writing was turned into a major film franchise? And so there is no Church of Scientology or thetan counts, but there is a Church of the Jedi and midichlorian counts?
We’ll never know. These are two of many possibilities, and the truth is likely an unknown third that will never be released or addressed, at least not for decades to come. (Not until batches of Marvel movies are made, people retire, and some of the players die.) It’s a bit of the Lee/Kirby situation, where the truth…
I imagine there’s more likely an NDA clause reason for the nebulousness. He was the Fantastic Four for several years, and he was the one who ended their story. He wrote the final appearances of Reed, Sue, and the kids. That wasn’t so much his choice as a mandate; he was told he had to wrap up any FF story lines…
Disney is showing the world, again, how to make a Fantastic Four movie! Hopefully the rumors are true that the actual film rights for the FF are in negotiations. They have the ability and talent to do a family-based Marvel super hero movie, and not too long ago writer Jonathan Hickman admitted that Marvel did stop…
“We were somewhere around Batuu, on the edge of the old sub-lightspeed trade routes, when the drugs began to take hold.”
If you watch the after show hosted by Jim Rash, they allude to the scene and explain it. Initially she was standing and waiting in the freaky Mike Meyers costume; it was actually distubing on set because there is just this short supernatural killer standing there off camera in the dark for a loooong time at the…
I was trying to be polite as fans who are commenters can really get out of hand if you’re blunt about a show or movie (etc.) that they love but that you know is unbearable tripe. There are a lot of shows that I find insufferable to the point where watching them, even as an attempt at hate-watching it, is absolutely…
The boys literally told Max where to meet them. It was at the corner of (insert name) Street and (insert other name) Street. Max met them there. Maybe you missed that part of the dialogue?
Sad news: Wayward Pines has been officially canceled by Fox. [Spoiler TV]
Damn. I don’t know why, but that sounds amazing. Turtle soup perhaps, gumbo style. Served using the shell as a bowl. I haven’t been able to eat for about a day currently because I’m sick, and absolutely nothing appeals to me, but damn: for whatever reason that sounds delicious.
I really, really want to see what you two have to say, but, for many reasons, many people simply cannot or are unable to invest 20 minutes in a video by talented writers. I think making videos are great! A lot of people would really appreciate it if you ran a transcript as well. With voice recognition software, it is…
There was the danger of cracking everyone’s screens and released the elder gods if I tempted the dimensional breakthrough by using foortage filmed in those two very dangerous,and one utterly accursed, worlds.
