I’m mostly fine with the retcons. Was not as thrilled with the world-weary dry Ahsoka with no emotions besides the occasional smugly-annoyed smirk... She was far more lively in Rebels than that, though I recognize a cartoon to live action conversion is always tough, and visually they did a great job. 

I mean, the canon version of the Gorn is that after a brief one-on-one fight they and the Federation reconcile and then their representatives grow old together and play video games on the couch.

And that’s fine. Retcons to make a better story or adapt to out of control changes happen all the time.

Unions indeed aren’t perfect, nor are the people that comprise them. In particular, police and teacher unions too often protect genuinely problematic people. But this isn’t them. This is a union taking a very justified stand against naked corporate greed for the protection of the livelihoods of tens of thousands of…

I think his best clarification was “perhaps it was... inarticulate,” as I’m not sure he understands what “reductive” means, nor “myopic.” He should probably put the thesaurus down, and just speak plainly on how he feels: strikes suck, even when necessary, and he’s bummed he can’t promote his show. It’s alright to feel…

You know what?

Incorrect.  Ant-man DNA would give you Paul Rudd’s anti-aging powers.

Why would you ever call on Drax's super strength if you also have the Hulk in your collection of superpowers? The Hulk is the tops on super strength among the MCU heroes and villains, except for maybe Thanos? Was Thanos included in the DNA smorgasbord?

It seems quite stupid to end the season with the President declaring genocide against all Skrulls even though there is still no way to reliability detect a Skrull other than killing them (or apparently cutting off a limb would work?).

The big issue for me (among several big issues) is how the series ends with an obvious attempt to set up season 2, when of course there will almost certainly not be a season two.

Skrudey, didn’t don the War Machine suit once, to protect the president, and no one questioned it. Much less, the writers create a reason that he didn’t. Could have at made up a line like “the Skrull DNA doesn’t match, so the suit rejected Skrudey” or anything.

Blasting an Extremis user’s heart completely out of their body worked in Iron Man 3.

“Oh G’iah? She stubbed her toe on the bedpost the other day. Turns out that’s lethal to Super Skrulls. Who knew?”

This show felt so cheap.

I miss that desperately. And I say this as someone who, by and large, has really enjoyed NuTrek.

I assume it’s because of SNW, but there’s been a lot of chatter this week about how strong Trek’s courtroom episodes are, and in part, I think that’s because they had to be strong in character and depth, because they couldn’t really be deep in pockets.

At least Prodigy is available on disc. MCU completionists gotta get real swashbuckly creative to see Runaways now.

This is much more likely I think. 

The fact that Prodigy was yanked so quickly implies to me that a deal with another streamer is imminent, or at least very likely.

It really does seem like a fundamental failure of basic business strategy. Businesses everywhere know that sometimes you do things that don’t make money or even cost money in order to bring more value to your brand as a whole. Costco sells their hot dog combo and rotisserie chickens at a loss because they know it…
