Yeah, it was the last movie I saw in theaters and liked. I just suffered through The Marvels.

I didn’t care for any of the scenes that were not Kamala-based. Fortunately I think the director realized that and squeezed her family in there as much as they could.

The AV Club overlords also don’t want to pay writers to review every episode, which was the reason I came to the AV Club in the first place.

Why didn’t people do this with the unlimited pata pass at Olive Garden? Order pasta, go outside, give it away. Then go inside and order more.

SNL made an entire sketch about jokes on the Al-Qaeda name on the first show after 9/11.

Oh, not including Daredevil in his suit was by far not their worst decision (Matt doesn’t wear the suit in several episodes of the Netflix Daredevil, and I’m including his black gear as “the suit”). It was to kill Foggy and Karen from the outset and start with a whole new legal team. Killing Karen dramatically is

Ah, the classic “something you did in a previous movie was incidentally bad for me, a formerly unknown person, so I have devoted my life to destroying you” villain that you use when you don’t have a good villain available.

It’s okay. I saw all of the previous content (except for Secret Invasion) and I couldn’t understand any of this.

Norton is notorious for being very controlling on set - wanting control over the script and production, etc. No way Marvel was going to let him have his way. And that was when actors were allowed to see full scripts! Now they just stand in front of a green screen and read lines and don’t find out what movie they were

There’s definitely a line between people who genuinely think it works because it’s some pseudo-ancient traditional and people who are trying to scam you. Acupuncture is pretty well documented to do absolutely nothing and be based on junk science but have a positive emotional effect, which leads to better medical

Last time someone called for an end to the Jewish people a lot of people did nothing and it became a really big deal.

No, he looks that way the rest of the time.

I mean, if you’re dealing with serious health problems, and you’ve exhausted every conventional option and you want to try some harmless quackery, it isn’t the end of the world. The placebo is effect is well-documented. It’s just a problem if it’s not harmless (like putting weird herbs in your mouth) or if you start

Quick question: Why does he always look like he just got off the treadmill in summer, sans the sweat? Is it drugs? I can’t imagine what else it is.

That’s what he’ll say in the airplane version.

Looks like Daredevil is not big on respecting peoples’ personal space.

Yes, but can you go to the office and get yelled at by Foggy for your irresponsible behavior?

Yes, it is estimated they are about 5% of accusations. How anyone got to this number, I have no idea. Maybe based on the disproven cases and people who recant. The “Believe Women” campaign that a lot of people seem to have forgotten about had a real goal.

Some of the more reliable leakers, but specifically Chris Brewster, stuntman for Daredevil and Captain America, who was not hired back for She-Hulk or Born Again (Matt’s stunts are largely CGI now) but did some work as a non-Daredevil character on Echo.

But not in the Netflix canon. That wasn’t what they were going for. They went for something more sophisticated and I thought it was pretty damn great.
