The Smiths are just the weirdest family… I kind of want to see a Sit-Com about them but with Michaels Cera as the crazy uncle or Urkel type

Now that's more like it.

debatable being the key word ;P

So the turned humans are the alpha primitives, the Inhuman slave class from the comics right? Wait… are we still doing the "they're THIS in the comics! thing?"

So, I'm the only person who pulled back from the abyss and said I'm better than this? Yes!! I've always wanted to be better than everyone else! *ahem* I mean, I've always considered myself a stoic and morally centred man *cough*

Nah, she's still a Carter, implies that it was Peggy's brother, someone who could carry the name.

I think they established it in this one very early on though, with the scene with Sharpe where you can tell that his anxiety is building already, and he literally jumps at her when she puts her hand in her purse. Plus, he seems stressed/anxious/in a low point of his life, so it all makes sense without it anyway. I…

As someone that suffers from mild ones, I know they're not fits of blind rage. But they can be, and in this case, he directed his panic into anger. don't want to get all phycological, but anger, anxiety, etc are all defensive emotions. They come from the same place. And anxiety makes it hard to control your anger,…

And an anxiety attack where he couldn't think rationally! I think people miss the subtle panic attacks he's had over the past few films…

Or more an anxious character flaw where he can't give up and stop, and feels a certain responsibility through guilt to keep doing more and more, which is why he and Pepper broke up… so status quo is maintained through character motivations, so yes the script. But not in a cynical way.

it's put in Europe and most other places for near a week now so… not really.

Dude went through full-on anxiety attacks in this film, and I loved it for that. They really fleshed out his reactions to all the situations by putting him on the absolute low point of his life. Everything about that final fight was perfect, him lashing out sure to panic.

He was 2-dimensional, but in a way that was 3-dimensional all on its own. Bruhl fucking killed it, especially in his scene with Panther, playing this man that has lost all will and motivation beyond revenge, someone with a full and interesting life that lost everything, including himself. Interesting contrast to the…

Guys, I feel as though there isn't enough discussion about Evan's arms in that helicopter sequence. Can we get an Evan's arm appreciation thread going here?

On the other hand, the excuse is Tilda Swinton. Which while still being an excuse… it's a pretty good excuse.

1972, not 1920.

Tell that to the victims of Bloody Sunday.

This was not a D+, it had plenty of really fun moments that didn't cohese into a whole at all, but the fun moments alone make it at least a C. Far from a slog, it was an episode that just kept jumping around, and the snark on this one was gold. Plus, stern english mother, I always love that trope.

Kurt Buesiek and Alex Ross's Marvels dealt with this dichotomy beautifully, highly reccomended
