My headcanon is the Monkey’s Paw Stone brings your wishes to life in sometimes the worst, most twisted way possible. So it wasn’t that Steve needed to be resurrected by taking over someone else’s body.  It was that the magic Diana and everyone else was using was inherently evil / twisted.

I think what WW84 shows is that it needed some time to bake in the community writers’ roundtable. For editing, for clarity, and for revision. This was like getting an early draft of a story pushed to filming and postediting, before seeing enough talented people with the power to say, “Wait, no. we need to change this…

99% of Soul’s problems could have been fixed by recasting.

Really? Must have watched a different Princess and the Frog than me. Tiana starts off as meek and serving the needs of other people; in the end, she  owns the restaurant, she  runs the nightlife, and the Prince is the loyal supportive spouse. The rich white fairy godfamily doesn’t magically give her anything; she earns…

Damn; I was just coming here to say that Soul should have done just that. Recast Tina Fey with Tiffany Haddish / Lizzo / someone else.

I’m just going to post about something a lot of critics have jumped on.

I love how they paralleled Vader’s hallway scene in Rogue One with Luke. He’s not all his momma’s boy.

Cool story, bro. Now here I am, living in the middle of a red state, getting 100% of my energy from wind farms across the state. Something that every power consumer in my metropolitan area is able to do.

“I understand you think this, but is this just a supposition or is there evidence for this?”

1) As the Ancient One points out very graphically in New York, the loss of the infinity stones causes a branch to form in reality, one with quite a ripple of aftershocks.

“By every indication in that scene where they see Cap on the bench, he has taken “the long way” back, rather than engaging in any time travel that would “return him to his own timeline”.”

I’m assuming the ‘borrowed’ infinity stones are used as anchor points to find the branched alternate timelines that Cap returns them to.

“One of the few things I liked about The Last Jedi was the acknowledgement from Yoda that the fall of the Jedi Order came from within, and it had nothing to do with Anakin. It was because their teachings were flawed. They stuck to the old ways so rigorously that they never once stopped to try to rethink their…

So, I am a doctor.

No, no, just the opposite. With unlimited thrusters, they can slow down from orbital velocity whenever they want in the Star Wars universe, and the repulsorlifts mean that they don’t have to be falling at terminal velocity as a consequence. Add those together, and it means no hot re-entry.
