I mean, X-Men has been going on for a pretty long while, and if certain writers have occasionally “answered” the question of whether Magneto or Xavier is right, it would seem that they’re still somehow asking it today. It’s almost as though it’s a question with no finite and concrete answer, not to mention it’s the…

Well this sure had a ton of cameos. I caught Captain America, Iron Man, Black Panther, Doctor Strange, Daredevil, Silver Samurai, Cloak & Dagger, Pete & MJ, the Red Guard (Darkstar, Crimson Dynamo and Omega Red), the children of Magneto mentioned above, Northstar, Aurora, Psylocke, Puck and Cipher. There were also…

So, you haven’t seen the movie, but you’re saying his review is incorrect.

First review I’ve read for IF and, woof, that’s disappointing. :(

A novel can have a character just sit in a room, doing absolutely nothing, and having a existential crisis for an entire chapter and make it compelling.

I would rather watch a film on my crappy 2010 laptop with £3 headphones than endure the behaviour of the absolute arseholes who make up a chunky minority of cinema audiences these days. That plus the sheer expense/transport issues of a cinema excursion makes waiting for a film to pop up online a complete no-brainer.

read: “We need a boogeyman to blame for our movies underperforming besides the fact we made too many of the damn things.”

its been five years since Endgame came out. five years. theres no generational divide. Marvel bet on “keep doing the same thing” and lost. they didnt focus on new trends or how viewing habits changed during the pandemic. 

“Things’ll work themselves out eventually—of course they will, this is an arm of one of the biggest companies in the planet”

Every media has limitations. A novel let’s you get inside a character’s head in a way comics and movies generally can’t.  

So you literally didn’t pay attention at all, or you never saw it, because the snap happens in Infinity War, not Endgame.

Captain America straining to get to his feet after Thanos has destroyed his shield and still resolving to fight and then his rallying cry of “Avengers assemble” is hands down my favorite moment of all the Avengers movies.

Yeah, Captain Marvel isn't my favorite, but it's solid. And it's always nice to see Clark Gregg.

Fuck offfff with this shit. Captain Marvel made over a billion and had really good reviews. Nobody is “blaming” Brie Larson for shit, cuz there’s not shit to be blamed.

The moment when Cap is buckling down to face off alone against Thanos and all his armies is and always will be an iconic moment in cinema history. And there are many others.

Folks, in case you were worried that the studio heads and chief investors weren’t going to be properly represented in this discussion about why anyone except said powers should be shafted in terms of income from projects, rest easy.

These days, real-world Republicans are increasingly indistinguishable from parodies.

anyone who willingly bought a cybertruck after knowing everything about Elon and Tesla honestly deserves to have their trucks bricked lol 

Everything I read about this makes me feel like it’s a repeat of the DeLorean in the 80s. Terrible quality doomed the car, even though it was cool...and then there was the whole John/coke thing...which I suspect is similar to Elon’s arc.

Replace HV battery.  Don’t forget the HV battery is the entire floor of the truck.  So remove seats, entire body, suspension and drive, replace battery, reassemble.  That truck will never, ever be right again. (if it ever was)
