Maharshala Ali has been cast as Blade for some time now but who knows when or if that movie will be made.

I don’t understand why jettisoning the existing plot, to the extent there is one, is more exciting or preferable to just recasting the guy. Just finish what you started, right? Hastily pivoting to a totally different villain with a totally different gimmick sounds like it wouldn’t make anyone happy.

he is making a new version of Avatar: The Last Airbender, so he clearly thinks there’s something to be gained from it.

I’m Kang and so is my wife!

I mean, we all did that with Rhodey, didn’t we? Worked like a charm. 

Best approach: Recast Kang, and simply don’t comment on the fact that he looks different. The characters don’t need to acknowledge it. It’s the same character played by a different actor, it’s happened before, it doesn’t need in-world explanations.

Phases 4 and 5 will hereon in be referred to as the “gas leak phases”

In all sincerity, all it would have taken was a single sentence explanation for the olds. 

What’s a Ziwe?

The people who will run in with attempts at “told you so”s will ignore two major elements:

1) Even if it was the best thing ever, Microsoft did such an ATROCIOUS job explaining/marketing it, it never would have mattered. The case study of just how you could botch a console launch from every conceivable angle is…

I used to think Michael Bay was the worst director, but at least he had the self awareness to know he was making high concept schlock. He always knew he was a hack, and was okay with that.

I’m not letting my kids watch this. I’m cutting down on their Skrein time.

Instead of simply kissing the guy who turns out to be her brother, there’ll be ten minutes of Whatever Her Name Rebel Chick having grunting, sweaty, saliva-for-lube anal sex with him.

Snyder has confirmed that the director’s cut of the first movie will be R-rated

I think they mean they had a long track record of not doing it. Then they tried it for a bit, didn’t like it, and never did it again. 

C’mon, no Fletcher from The Gentleman?

Good. One less live service money pit to watch die a slow death. I’m glad that they could acknowledge that this was going to hurt their bread and butter single player games and made the right call.

What’s incongruous about Wakanda is fans see it as this aspirational black utopia, but its history is that of a society of wildly technologically superior isolationists. That’s going to breed centuries of deeply ingrained racism and xenophobia that’s not going to be wiped away because one ruler wants to build a few…

Mortimer?

Oh my god, we can’t even escape you types on other websites! I lurk on some wrestling boards and the use of the term “midget” to refer to anyone under 8' and 5000 lbs of roided out fury is just bananas.
