Does it come with bright yellow collectible splitter guards?

The original Flag-Smasher plot vs the GRC makes much more sense with a deadly global pandemic raging.

But Karli just feels disjointed to me; part of it is that she has zero backstory, and her descent into moral relativism kind of comes from nowhere because of it.

I think Marvel had to scrap that section of making the GRC and the Flag-Smashers make sense when they scrapped the global pandemic storyline that Falcon and the Winter Soldier was supposed to feature.

I think it does comes back to the scrapped pandemic storyline. Think of it this way: not only is the world dealing with half its population coming back in the blink of an eye, and not only are large sections of the world population back to being homeless, dispossessed, poor and displaced, but now the world is…

How those old-school displays of heroism fit into a modern day where the roles of the military and the police and the government aren’t necessarily seen as that of the “good guys” could make for a pretty interesting character study.

That’s really what Butthurt White Guy’s aiming at. Just the mere possibility that an imaginary someone (and we all know what the imaginary someone looks like in their mind) exercising their First Amendment rights of protesting may inconvenience him at some point is excuse enough to commit vehicular homicide and…

Nickelodeon: your megahit new series is right there.  Look at what the fans have been asking for.  Make a new series about Zuko and Azula finding their mother. Step 2: make a bajillion bucks!

Competence porn at its finest, and it certainly helps that 99% of it is factually based.

Looks great for what it is, a Honda Civic. Everyone complaining about “too boring” probably also complains about their dishwasher looking like a dishwasher, too. It looks exactly like a small sedan with contemporary conservative styling, with a Honda front end.  I’m glad they got out of the Ricers For Everyone market.

Which is weird, because it shouldn’t be that way. Take away the vibranium left arm and you still have a one-armed super soldier with super speed, super strength, super reflexes, and super durability. I think it was just the mental shock of being so rapidly disarmed that froze him.

“I appreciate that the show is trying to say something about a lot of issues but if it’s trying to say something insightful about the Black experience in America, then killing a Black character and having the camera lingering on that dead Black character is ... problematic.”

It’s a common problem in sales, and choices in general.

The only way for that to happen is if Steve and Peggy willingly sat by in the 1940s-1980s, letting Hydra take over SHIELD, letting Bucky become the mind-controlled Winter Soldier, and letting Howard Stark and his wife be assassinated.

And for the second time, I don’t think that mattered to Erskine. You think Erskine didn’t want total control of the super serum once Germany’s government started to misuse it? Did you think Erskine wasn’t smart enough to figure out that America’s government could end up misusing it as well?

Not to mention it makes Sharon the dumbest Power Broker ever - she had Super Soldier serum, one of the valuable substances in the world, and she had the means to make more of it in Nagel and the lab. If Sharon is the Power Broker, it means that she messaged the Flag Smashers that she’s going to kill them. So the Power…

But also, Abraham Erskine was a Jewish scientist working in Nazi Germany (before escaping). Not keeping notes is both life insurance for him and a way to make sure things don’t fall into the wrong hands.

As apparently Bucky remembers everything from being the Winter Soldier, maybe the problem isn’t that he doesn’t like or appreciate modern music, it’s just that when he last listened to “Trouble Man” he was assassinating people around the globe. 1940s music reminds him when he was Howling Commando, bringing the fight…

The best superhero movies take the superheroes out of their element and make a different kind of movie with it.  Nolan made the Batman into a Scorsese-type crime thriller in The Dark Knight.  The Russo brothers took Captain America and made a political thriller in Captain America: Winter Soldier. Taika Waititi took…
