If you didn’t think GRRM and the adaptation were setting Dany up to be the Mad Queen then you haven’t been paying attention. She’s been impulsive, vindictive, and wrathful since she started down the path to conquering Westeros in S2. She’s only been kept in check by the wisdom of her advisors, and even then, it’s been…

Neighborhood-level data needs to be adjusted by the temporary spike in people present to be meaningful.

She certainly didn’t do that on screen, that’s my point. Valkyrie had been a hard-drinking lout, working only for herself, and by fighting Hela, she’s a leader now? I can get that a bunch of stuff happened in those five years, but the moment doesn’t pay off by her being a good leader in stuff we haven’t seen,…

I don’t think the whole “Valkyrie should rule New Asgard” was well-done either- last time we saw her, she was an alcoholic with trauma from the last time she defended Asgard. Then, two films later, she merely walks through New Asgard with the Avengers, points to Thor’s cottage. Why does she want to lead the Asgardians…

Did anyone else watching think, “damn, I need a new tv”? The dark episode really highlighted all kinds of pixelation I hadn’t seen before. Shades of pixels. 

God that was awful.

Bold choice to film the episode entirely in black and darker black.

normies and try hards, huh. i’m guessing there’s a whole lot about the offline world that you don’t understand

Meh. AV Club’s total 180 on Joss Whedon was pretty weak. After Whedon got caught cheating on his wife, AVC immediately started acting like they never liked him and how his female characters were actually all super duper sexist as if we weren’t celebrating Buffy Week 4 days earlier. If there was any specific moment…

I love Edgar Wright but oh my god yes can we please move past this shit when discussing ant-man already, agreed so much.

Some thoughts:

Is this the first time we saw Brienne smile?

Out of everyone, the person I most want to survive until the end is Tormund.

The Brienne scene, man. Just so wonderful to see the show and the characters acknowledge that there’s no one more just, more honorable, and more compassionate than the big woman.

I feel...extremely unusual watching Maisie Williams in a nude sex scene.

The movie that finally got my mom appreciating the MCU. ‘I like that Groot boy!’

GOTG2 has the rare distinction of possessing both a mediocre ending and a great one. The big action climax ending is your classic shrug-inducing superhero movie fight, a couple of CGI beings weightlessly punching each other for what seems to be an eternity. You can see Gunn trying his damndest to turn it into…

Cholos fucking love their white wines and neo-cubism.
