As the lone Trek fan who still loves the Abrams-verse, my hope of hopes is the Red Angel has something to do with Red Matter and comes from the Kelvin timeline, and Spock is being driven mad by visions of Vulcan’s destruction. I mean, it’ll never happen, but if they used all this to get Disco out of the Prime universe

It’s weird how Sarek convinces Burnham to take Spock to Section 31 by being all “you have a troubled Starfleet history and risk a court martial otherwise”, and then like 5 minutes later she just goes on the run with him anyway.

Girlf and I have been watching “Windy City Rehab” and have taken to calling it “Boobs & Bevers”, because her cleavage seems to be a main character on that show, and her work-husband-whose-name-I-don’t-know looks like Bevers from Broad City.

I love Age of Ultron - top 5 MCU for me. It’s overstuffed, and doesn’t have the same distinct character arcs as Avengers 1, but it’s an ambitious blast beginning-to-end. Civil War is still my favorite, and I think the Russos do both a better job of balancing complex multi-character plots, and direct better action, but

Also isn’t this kind of exactly what we see in Avengers aboard the Helicarrier, when everyone’s standing in the lab around the scepter and their argument starts to really heat up seemingly because of it? It seems like this fits into that - Thanos wasn’t controlling him explicitly, but the scepter/mind stone did

It would be better if Apple would stop chasing thinness and leave room for things like bigger battery and a headphone jack. But also, like, how hard is it to just leave the dongle connected to whatever pair of headphones you’re used to using? I know there are a million use cases where it’s not that simple, but having

I’m super confused by these headlines about this being his first tour since the allegations, or maybe I’ve gone insane, because he definitely had a tour this fall.

On the one hand, she is great and what she’s saying is great and it’s great that she’s saying it. But on the other hand, she is like the most beautiful woman in the world and pretty much perfectly matches that “ideal” body type she derides.

Looks like he’s gonna snap his fingers and kill half the players in the league.

I sort of did the math on this recently too and found it’s not really worth it for me. Another way to look at it: if you bought the iPhone X at release for $1000 and want to sell it on eBay now, you’ll get $600-700, meaning you spent a net of $300-400 for a year of usage. If you bought AppleCare+ for $200, you get

It was the same type of GPS tracker that Gus and Mike basically used on each other last season. (The one Mike found hidden in his gas cap.)

Yeah I’m pretty meh on it too on the first listen. I really like the first two tracks, “Graffiti” and “Get Out”, but the rest don’t really have anywhere near the catchy hooks of their first 2 albums.

Eh, good on them, I’d say, for not trying to hide from it and brush it under the rug. Let them be confronted with questions. (Though, cynically, it’s probably more like “all press is good press”.)

I really liked Season 4 originally, and had intended to rewatch the original cut, but Netflix buried it so much that I’m watching the remix instead. I’m kinda surprised how good it is. A lot of the plot threads still fall flat, but there are so many good jokes, and it feels good to have the traditional AD rhythm back.

I’d say The Rock’s career in general. He’s a steady B+ thanks to his charisma and the generally-fun projects he chooses, but I keep waiting for him to be in a legitimately un-ironically *good* thing.

I’m still greatly amused that everyone seems to think they’re going to do something with the snapture, since I can’t see Kevin Feige entrusting any of the plot points of Infinity War to the red-headed stepchild of the MCU years in advance. Their mention that Thanos is attacking could’ve been guessed by any of us, and

On the other hand, it may be kind of a savvy move on Marvel’s part. Without IW, it’s just a fun-looking sequel to a likable middle-ground MCU movie. But with IW, now people are excited to see how the heck they’re gonna address those events in this movie. The MCU has more cultural awareness than ever now, and a rising

Especially when compared to the similar Steppenwolf from Justice League, sweet Jesus, Thanos was so much better.

Banner was still probably perma-Hulked from the end of Ragnarok.

Still going with the idea that being an unfaithful spouse is mutually exclusive with feminism, eh?
