At a stretch: perhaps Disney have let their adaptation rights for The Rescuers and Black Cauldron lapse, and couldn’t include them?

“I hate that you keep telling me not to jump off a cliff, so I might just JUMP OFF! That’ll show you!”

A funny gag, maybe. He’d be the worst Skrull infiltrator in the world!

Unless the bulk of them are hired mercenaries and the only Skrulls are Gravik and his right-hand man. It’s stretching things a bit - what mercenary company would accept a job of “come with us to attack the President of the United States” - but unless they were incredibly confident or all of them have Extremis healing

Calling Max’s development team “IT folks” is pretty misleading - it makes it sound like they’re blaming the sysadmins and tech support department, when it will have almost certainly have been owned by a dedicated team of software engineers.

It reminds me of classic Doctor Who, where indoor scenes tended to have everyone in shot, as if it was a stage play being filmed for the screen, and you could see characters waiting patiently to deliver their lines.

Nobody. They show a single clip of him from the film itself - in fact they cut to it twice - to illustrate her filming The Bodyguard.

Yes - if nothing else, the movie is gorgeous. Disney gets a lot of stick for making every human character look basically the same through the last twelve years’ worth of movies, but this is the best those humans have ever looked. The way they move is so natural I thought it might have been rotoscoped. I’m guessing

Everywhere does recaps now. The age of decent online reviews - or at least at the AV Club - might well be done, it’s easier and probably cheaper to pay someone to regurgitate the plot of something we’ve all just watched and then add in a few token criticisms or plaudits. Slap on a few bullet points and submit, then on

The Imperial officers are so terrified of Vader that they dare not question his orders, or even make suggestions. Like “why don’t you go and chase Obi-Wan in a shuttle, and we’ll continue pursuit of the rebels in our Star Destroyer? Then we’ll achieve both objectives.”

They’re both taking small steps: Kamala is more open about what she wants to do, and her mother is loosening her grip a little because it’s the best way to stop her from doing it anyway without her permission. By saying “yes” to some things, it’s easier to say “no” to others.

In Homecoming they weren’t just a cleanup crew, they rocked up to Toomes’s work site behaving like the FBI and all fully armed. Not to mention that their heavy-handedness directly led to Toomes’s side career as the Vulture in the first place. The MCU has a long history of government agents and agencies being

Or they’re able to fix him up with droid parts, like Fennec Shand.

Boba Fett is set post-Empire, in the early days of the New Republic. Here in the Imperial days, maybe there are fewer regulations on carrying weapons aboard passenger transport ships.

There’s really no point in puzzling out Thawne’s timeline. The showrunners don’t care - if he needs to be in an episode, he’ll be in an episode. He’s the Arrowverse equivalent of The Master from Doctor Who - he might appear to die, or even be erased from time, but he always finds a way to come back somehow.

I had a thought about this when Amy Sedaris unveiled the Naboo starfighter and told Din “it’s pre-Empire so it’s off the books, unregistered” - the Empire only lasted 20 years! That’s like the US government saying that every car built before 2000 can be driven without any vehicle registration or tax, just because it’s

I would watch the hell out of a spin-off show where Amy Sedaris repairs a different Star Wars vehicle every week with her droids and the Jawas. Structured like one of those Discovery channel gearhead shows, Fast ‘n Loud, Wheeler Dealers et al.

I mean, they both know Din pretty well, so that just adds to the weirdness of the scene for me. Why doesn’t she just say “hey, with our cash reserves, why don’t we call Din or his Mandalorian friends whom we literally just worked with a few weeks ago, and see if they’ll give us a hand?”

A plot point in Daredevil was that he wears specially-made clothing that’s lined with a kind of super-Kevlar armour layer, so he can take physical hits that would incapacitate a normal person. And as per the comics, he’s in very good shape, his size is largely muscle and not fat. It gives him more or less unquantified
