Had to get ahead of the spoiler curve... LOKI by far & away my fave of Phase 4 so far! Lady Loki is almost irrelevant, biggest reveal in this ep is the solid presence of Roxxon Corporation in a timeline. MCU distraction, misdirect, or future reference? Biggest question, once TVA Loki realised his magic (science) worked…
I’m thrilled with the TVA’s look & tech! But I don’t think it was wholly Kate’s idea, because much of it matches similar stuff seen in, say, GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY & THOR: RAGNAROK. Even DOCTOR STRANGE film’s “magical” tech has a similar vibe. Again, I love it! Show me more!
I really loved the revelations Loki had upon seeing the junk drawer AND the life reel of Loki Prime. He realised the pursuit of “Glorious Purpose” was ultimately a load of crap & he would’ve wasted his life. I think changing this path is why he’ll help the TVA, as long as it serves whatever he’s going to cook up next.…
At first I thought so too, but if you’re talking about Owen Wilson’s credit screen, it’s the little Apple-wheel thingy used to control the collars & transport around. However, though they are magical & not mech, I think the retro vibe of the TVA tech feels very similar to the Sling Rings.
LOVED my first look at LOKI TV series, did indeed address some things about which I’ve been wondering. Eager to see the rest.
I just placed my order & still fail to comprehend why Lynch, an artist I greatly respect for his vision & creativity, hates one of his masterpieces so much. The production design alone is Oscar-winning calibre.
I saw this film on opening weekend in a packed, sold out cinema & everything was GLORIOUS, movie & audience…
I don’t know if it helps, but this is why I don’t default use same day or 1 day deliveries. If I can wait more than 2 days, I wait. I’m told DoorDash has started this kind of ultra fast delivery and I cringe. A company like Amazon absolutely needs to pony up more window time & wages for its employees.
I’ve been watching since Day 1 too & yeah, agree it’s a lot.
If reboot: oh god no.
Drizzt Do’Urdan is in my Top 5 of ALL TIME FAVE FANTASY CHARACTERS.
Also, no one but me talks about how HUGELY GREAT it was to make a major character, white Euro aristocrat & archvillian Baron Mordo, into Mordo, the Sorcerer Supreme’s second in command, enforcer, & a teacher, a very powerful black sorcerer who is possibly Wakandan, in Earth-199999's reality.
Before Marvel’s DOCTOR STRANGE was announced, I had long fantasy-cast Ken Watanabe as The Ancient One.
Ben Wong as Wong = perfect casting.
Tilda Swinton was a GREAT choice to depict Earth-199999 MCU’s androgynous Celtic Ancient One, because it’s an alternate universe. This reality lists Agamotto as the first Sorcerer…
I had no problem with someone else becoming BATWOMAN. I too thought they’d leave Kate a mystery for awhile.
To me, this is trying to reach GOTHAM levels of nuts, but without the charm. I’m struggling to stay interested.
GIMME ALL THE CONSTANTINE
Not that I didn’t have vagueness with some storylines, but I get the impression that far too many people didn’t understand what they were watching, drawing parallels between the MCU universe history & our real world history.
The Flag Smashers agenda is self evident: the Earth equally belongs to everyone, including all…
Like what I see so far! I want the MCU IRONMAN mistakes with AIM + fake Mandarin using the Ten Rings to be righted.
I gotta get this off my chest- WANDAVISION DID NOT retconn The Darkhold. If you paid attention to AGENTS OF SHIELD, in the MCU it is a massively powerful relic written by an Elder God that manifested what you THOUGHT it was & corrupted you. Book of the Dead = Ghost Rider. Read by an android = Framework. Book of the…
Didya see the red glowing book? I’m not convinced AGATHA is the main villain either. She might be acting under the influence of this powerful magical relic (remember the Darkhold in AGENTS OF SHIELD?), which is our best clue yet why Wanda is going to need Dr. Strange & the Masters of the Mystic Arts’ help. Relics are…
Nope. This TV was much less interesting than the 1994 attempt, with its problems. Maybe the biggest problem remains that the story - ALL OF IT - still needs a better ending. The only bright spot this version was a better played Harold.
