He mashed up New Gods and Inhumans. It’s the New Gods mythos with the Inhumans’ origin and status as hidden relatives of humanity.

I mean, the Blip happened everywhere in the universe though, not just on Earth. 

I think you’d have to go back to around Season 5 for your remake, to be honest. The groundwork for the ending was already shakey.

PATHFINDER!??

Trump’s hair is actually real. Basically all sources that know the guy and have commented on it have said this, including Michael Wolff and Kathy Griffin. It’s a comb over that he colors with some product that he almost certainly isn’t using right.

Yeah, a lot of the recent comics have gotten away from what made him great too. Just because it’s in some comics doesn’t make it good. There’s whole eras of the character I would rather not talk about. I wasn’t a big fan of Dan Slott turning him into Ted Kord, and the current run (as well as Zdarsky’s spectacular run…

... I mean, I didn’t specifically say he had to be a bullied nerd. I agree that the nerd-jock dynamic is dated (although kids are definitely still bullied and ostracized). You seem to be responding to a point I didn’t make. I was essentially saying he’s a down-on-his-luck schlub - I don’t mean that in the usual sense,…

I think it’s a magnet school, not a private school.

I would rather those shows also continue to tell their own stories, if they were to stay on the air (RIP Daredevil). Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. could have easily dealt with the effects of the snap, but it improved itself largely by stepping away from the movies and telling its own story (although the massive Winter…

Life-long Spidey fan here, and I agree with this take 100%. I was so excited to see Spider-Man finally in the MCU, and portrayed as an actual kid to boot. But the version they’ve given us is only the Spidey I recognize on the surface level. I was the only person in my group of friends who didn’t like Homecoming, and…

I’d rather they just retcon this out of existence, because the implications of the 5-year-gap so overshadow any superhero shenanigans that are meant to be the centerpiece of this world. And said implications are going to be super difficult for each franchise to deal with, while also telling their own stories.

I don’t understand this Beyonce worship, and don’t think I ever would. Why would I want to spend my day being the servant to a demanding pop star?

Pissed Pete

Maybe she’ll come back more like comic book Sofia - in a wheelchair and neckbrace. I know that makes no sense for a gunshot wound to the head, but it’s Gotham. Anything is possible.

I just saw it today, and loved it, but agree that the comparisons with those movies is overplayed. It’s much more like Heavenly Creatures.

I feel like the reason it took so long to get started is that the show wanted to hold the mother reveal back from the press preview episodes. It was the first 5 episodes that were given over early, right? And the reveal came in episode 6?

Not what we expect? Oh SHIT, MONGOOSE ATTACK!!!

I would like to further correct the Orcrist NYT correction linked. Bilbo Baggins does not wield a sword in The Hobbit; Sting was a dagger.

It’s offering DVDs and blu-rays as well. It just has old VHS tapes as well.

The same thing for me! The AV Club recommendation and the descriptions “American Psycho meets Heathers” actually got me, and normally I just ignore buzz words.
