Replacing an actor that has gotten terrible reviews for her singing with an actor that (despite what you may think about her) has a fantastic voice counts as new and interesting to me. 

I’m not worked up over this, but Black Widow was definitely more fun than some entries above it, and having finally seen Eternals...it’s a mixed bag mostly on pacing—though remarkably straightforward and competent I thought given it’s brief. What it does have that very few MCU movies have is actual moral consequences

I could see not liking the main challenge, because everything TikTok touches turns to garbage. But not liking the *lip sync?* Jesus.

I signed up to comment on this site for the 1st time after reading for 7 years just to agree.

I laughed a lot this episode. I loved that it was a new challenge - almost like drag queen branding through interpretative dance, loved how I could see some of the dances actually going viral on Tiktok (especially Yvie’s, though Shea’s could be for high achievers), thought Jinkx making a sandwich was hilarious, loved

Did we watch the same episode? I luuurved this — thought it was filled with silly, funny joy, as well as true finesse exemplified by the two winners. I mean, come on, that trip through Art History 101 was GORGEOUS, as well as masterfully executed. And the lip sync was an absolute trip. I agree the editing could have

Wow bunch of folks wanting to have amber shit on their bed.

I thought she was brilliant in Room. And I’m really glad it was the first thing I remember seeing her in, because that has given her a Free Pass for me for whatever else she has fumbled. 

Boseman was a great actor, and Blank Panther was a great character, and the film had a wonderful cultural impact and felt special compared to some of the more cookie-cutter (if still enjoyable) MCU efforts. But putting him first feels very much like a sympathy vote. How do you not put Cap or Stark first? They are the

Glad to see Jessica Jones appropriately high on the list. Krysten Ritter was so good & her sitcom skills really helped salvage The Defenders. 

I was really hoping #1 would be “America’s Ass”. Not Cap--just “America’s Ass” with a close-up pick of Chris Evans’s butt. It would have made the five days of needless slideshows worth it for that gag alone.

I didn’t say it was inexplicable, just that it was shit.

Jesus what a shit list. Brie Larson is a bore as Captain Marvel and I wanted her not to be to stick it to the fucking sexist shits who wanted the movie to be bad. it was so so. Tom Holland wasn’t a great Spider-man till this last movie.

meh it wasn’t that unexplainable, Wandavision literally ends with her off to do some more evil sorcery after accepting Visions death but not accepting her children’s death. It mostly just felt we were missing a connective story between Wandavision and Dr. Strange 2's film.

During the entire movie I thought she was some alternate reality Wanda but Mrs. F. told me it was “really her.” So it just confused me even more they’d do that to an Avenger.

Also, for those bitching about Black Panther being #1, you’re forgetting the golden rule of online writing:

“As the first superhero of African descent to appear in comics and then big-budget films”

Did anyone expect AV Club to choose any other character? There is no conceivable metric by which BP could be considered the greatest Marvel film character but he certainly is the choice that signals that one holds fashionable opinions the loudest.

I’m not saying there’s never a time to clear your cache, but the entire design purpose of a cache is to speed things up. Clearing it will normally (by design) cause some additional slowness as the cache is rebuilt.

I am SO GODDAMN OUTRAGED that I basically agree with most of this and don’t have a chance to write a sarcastic spittle-flecked list of all my problems with it.
