The oldest we’ve seen Veidt comes from the 1988 video he sent to future president Robert Redford. How would anyone know what he looks like now?

Eh, I kinda like old Leia as the general who was never really that into the Jedi bullshit.

I get the feeling that the cake is just an everyday affair. Dr. Manhattan created all these clones to keep him company, and was just like, “hey, humans like birthday parties, so give him a cake every day”.

Per Peteypedia, I believe, Veidt was simply declared dead after going missing some years ago, circa the time his company was bought by Trieu.

Do your first pass with the grain, then do a second pass (lightly) against the grain. Smooth, no razor burn.

But he’s got one more October to get through first.

Jesus Christ, people, those weren’t psychic visions. They were just flashbacks to that thing we saw earlier in the season where young Bonnie was drowned by her mom to teach her a lesson. It was a traumatic thing that they both experienced and defined their relationship, and they both flashed back to it.

That’s baseball, Suzyn.

“No, it’s not a political statement, we’re just honoring the memory of, uh, some cops who died 3 and a half years ago? Yeah, that’s the ticket.”

I very much want a sticker of this to slap over the decals I see on cars.

They didn’t.

Something I thought the movie didn’t make super clear was: how much *did* Carol remember about her old life? We see her remembering the accident, but I wasn’t sure if that was a snap-into-place moment with her remembering everything else up til then, or if the rest of it was still just bits and pieces. Kinda made it…

Not that we should be looking to straight white guys for representation, but we’re still angry at him for having an affair, huh?

We’re not buying that x-planation.

For me, the thing was I was unsure for most of the movie whether the audience was supposed to know it was Bucky. In Winter Soldier during the Hydra reveal there’s a quick shot of a newspaper clip heavily implying Bucky was involved, and remembering that I just kept thinking “WE already know it’s Bucky... right?”

This is right up there with Dark Knight as one of my favorite comic book movies, and this final battle is one of the big reasons. I particularly like the reversal that sets it up - you think they’re going into a big battle against a bunch of other Winter Soldiers, but then the movie pulls the rug out from under you…

Hard disagree. A good alternate thesis for this article would be how much it was a counter-point to Man of Steel, with its city-destroying collateral-damage-ignoring final battle. Cap specifically says something to the effect of “we need to save these people to prove we’re better than Ultron says”.

But then, I was born yesterday.

I rewatched Avengers 1 and 2 yesterday, and even if it doesn’t quite reach the heights of 1, Ultron is still one of my favs. There are a lot of plot points that are glossed over too quickly, like the creation of Vision, and I wish we’d gotten to see a Director’s Cut that fleshed out those things better. But there are…
