Sticking with the villain's first appearance throughout the fight might have been a nicely incongrous look.

Mjolnir in legend had a short handle, which might suggest it was a difficult weapon for anyone but Thor. The idea of it being outright unliftable by others is Marvel, though, as far as I'm aware.

I'd say that if the characters in a story talk about how great a piece of comedy (or art, music etc.) that's been created for the story is, you're just daring the audience to disagree. More subtly, taking a piece of art within a story at face value gets opposed to examining it for what it says about the wider story,…

If the American experience was much like the British one, mining was a big local employer in the places it was carried out, shaped the growth and identity of those places, and left a lot of unemployment there when it went away. Those are some strong causes of nostalgia, though not necessarily a rational case for…

Hey, no spoilers for the next episode.

I think you can take a guess from just how sparse and obviously unsweetened the laughter is on the show.

On the other hand, the bit where the kid dies jumping the same fence as her grandfather was quite funny.

"I wish I was old enough to have seen Guardians of the Galaxy vol. 2 in the cinema…."

One who gets annoyed if she thinks you're calling her "Stryf"

And, of course, the moment when you realise why mental control doesn't work on her.

Yeah, that was an "irreplacable people on wildly popular show make deal to be paid lots of money" setup, very different pattern of expenditure to "let's shoot in 13 countries".

If those are bought in from broadcast TV (which even 'Netflix Originals' can be) or co-productions, they're probably a lot cheaper than Netflix own-brand.

Which makes her the Bride of Frankenstein already. (Creator and monster — Miller traded off roles with Benedict Cumberbatch in a recent stage production.)

AoA is too close to being a mirror version of DoFP to follow it in a cinema adaptation, though.
I thought the film needed to pick one of the several angles Apocalypse suggests and go for it — as is, he's a messy character adapted messily.

Dropped mine and put a crack all the way across one lens. I think those were glass, and my current pair too.

It is fair to say that news and sport are more ephemeral, though — watching a film or TV show that's 5 or 50 years old isn't unusual, but you're unlikely to do that for news or sport other than extremely important clips.

Turn on Audio Description, and at least you'll get the verbosity.

Dealing with characters being locked up by the films and a TV budget for effects are two big things that lead studios towards this sort of show, I think.

Well, it wasn't a window before, it is now.

Season 2's divisive — the sharpest shift in central topic of any season has something to do with that, probably.
