I did. Still doesn’t explain why the creative team thought it’d be a good idea to try and make Frank heroic or super-heroic. Frank is not your average reluctant grumpy-but-with-a-soft-side-and-a-teenage-sidekick hero. Frank is not Wolverine-lite.

The Punisher season 2 wants to make Frank Castle a Superhero

Moix is a cunning polemicist who thrives on provocation. Shocking people with outrageous comments & opinions is his bread and butter, and this interview came out a few days after his new book got released : the media outrage gave him plenty of free advertising, his sales got a boost, mission accomplished.

We clearly haven’t watched the same copy of Star Trek Beyond.

No surprise there. And that clears the way for a (new) Kirk in Disco, which must make CBS very happy.

Spock, because of his experience with the Red Angel and because the seven signals and these visions that he’s had since childhood, all of his logical training cannot make sense of it. These experiences have basically broken his brain and he doesn’t have the emotional understanding of how to deal with [it] either.…

Daleks ? Hard pass.

Nah. Oded Fehr as Jafar (in ABC’s Once Upon A Time) was hot. And menacing. And looked the part.

Not sure this trailer made me wanna see this one in theaters, but I’ll gladly give it a shot later on.

Same thing goes for Nathan Barnatt and his No Bones/boneless dance. Except something tells me that he won’t sue, and will settle for some undisclosed sum and/or a credit.

Red Tornado was looking better.

Eh, given the fact that Fuller got canned very early during pre-prod, and that his work on the two-parter pilot & the following episode was heavily rewritten by Kurtzman, Goldsman, Berg & Harberts, I’m not sure he’s necessarily to blame for all that. It was a team effort to make such a mediocre show.

Fuller does need to have someone to rein him in on most of his projects, but nothing i’ve read about STD s1 indicates the blame should be laid at anyone’s feet but CBS’, and their vision of what modern Trek should be.

Either that, or Jean-Paul Valley.

Nah. Its biggest sin is having shit writers and/or showrunners rushing through all of their plot points and skipping character development for the sake of having loud action, big “moments” and “reveals” that end up falling flat because they’re so obvious.

Bigger, louder... dumber ? We’ll see. But the stakes are way too high for my tastes (“the end of all sentient life in the universe”, sure, Thanos would like a word), and the fact that they deliberately play the mystery card re:the Red Angel means they’re probably setting up a big surprise reveal at some point.

Fun episode. I’m still waiting for the moment where they’ll let Superman loose, and not have him constantly reined in “because Supergirl shouldn’t be overshadowed”, but still, it’s crazy how much those tv crossover are more enjoyable than their big screen counterpart.

The first episode of the season was the biggest Doctor debut since the series reboot, as well as second-biggest drama episode of 2018 for the BBC, with 11-million consolidated viewers. Since then, the season has averaged over 8-million viewers per episode.

Thing is, the YV movement is, at its core, a social media-born and fueled movement. And as we all know, social media is the place where, more often than not, fake news & misinformation abound, outrage is amplified beyond measure, people all know better than the experts, and kinda end up losing touch with how things…
