He is willfully delusional. What a dishonest title... Disco doesn’t promise any such thing because there’s no admission that they did something wrong, because they didn’t do anything wrong.

Actually Klaw became pure (solidified) sound due to the mountain of vibranium and some kind of energy backlash—comics logic!— and the thing on the end of his arm was a weird antenna with a dish that focused that (solidified) sound into (unsolidified) sound. Comics logic!

Is that your argument? You can’t actually deny the facts I just dropped, so you resort to that weak-sauce? SAD.

With Marvel all but forcing directorial anonymity on its movies

I agree with most of what you said, except i fast-forwarded through quite a bit of the last 20 minutes.

Yes, and it was far more than merely solid. It was a great indie film that puts to shame 99.9% of the big-budget action/suspense Hollywood films thank to excellent writing, characterization, human connection, wonderful acting, great filming and all the rest. On a budget.

Man, so do I. And that is a GREAT photo. Thanks for that.

Jesus, thank you.

I think I misspoke. In fact it looks like more than thinking. I was certain I’d read Hickman had worked on Westworld, but maybe that was wishful thinking because I don’t see him anywhere now that I search for it.

I am a bit scared, because for me the first season is really one of the very finest bit of TV I’ve seen and one of my very favorite pieces of science fiction ever. Part of me is very afraid that another season couldn’t live up to that.

I think we will have to agree to disagree on that. I think Claremont had some moments beyond Byrne (with Miller and with Davis), but for my tastes most of what he wrote post-Byrne was not great stuff.

I do not think that Silvestri and Lee-era Claremonte were remotely great comics, and I would actually use that contrast to the Byrne (and to a lesser extent Davis) stuff as evidence to prove my point.

I enjoyed Reservoir Dogs when it came out. I think Pulp Fiction is a great movie, and I think Jackie Brown is exceptional. Unlike so many of his other films, including Kill Bill, Jackie Brown feels true to me. The characters and dialogue don’t just feel like contrived, juvenile “cool” bullshit. Even though, yeah,…

I haven’t loved a Tarantino project since Jackie Brown, and I HATED Kill Bill, (holy shit, I hated it so, so, so, fucking much)

Karen Tidbeck is amazing and Jagannath is a terrific collection of creepy stories that have a timeless feel to them. Well worth reading.

Using Zola’s algorithms as its base not to mention all the other super-and-occult-science Hydra had been making use of since at least WWII? I just don’t get why this is challenging.

This is completely correct. They made it clear in the movie that it was predictive. Therefor this isn’t even a continuity error.

I’m completely with you here. Don’t spoil Black Lightning. Let it be what it is, which is so good, and let the other shows be what they are, which many people enjoy. Just please don’t make BL like the others, even for a crossover.

I honestly hope it never crosses over with the other shows. I just think it’s a much superior show that is required to operate with a certain level of seriousness that things like musical episodes and a frequent total lack of logic, emotional or otherwise, would just not do good things to.

No, please don’t spoil Black Lightning with Flash/Supergirl crap like musical episodes.
