Americans are FAR to lazy for a mass uprising.  The biggest coup attempt of the last 200 years was basically just incels acting like they rushed the field at a college football game.

I guess I don’t understand what y’all are seeing, because this made me sick to my stomach at how believable it is. By this time next year, we’ll either be in the midst of an armed uprising, or preparing to inaugurate America’s first real autocrat. I know it’s comforting to pretend otherwise, but it was also comforting…

Sigh....I have had dreams about a WWZ series.

I had seen WWZ movie and then had absolutely no interest in reading the book (and was getting a bit burnt out on zombie stuff at that time anyway)— until someone whose opinion I trust told me that the movie is almost entirely unrelated to the book AND that the book was unlike any other zombie book. They weren’t wrong.

It might be good, but hard to fill the shoes belonging to Phillip and Elizabeth Jennings...

I’m going to assume this is a reference to Dexys Midnight Runners and ask no further questions.

She refers to the infamous leaked conversation between herself and Kanye West in 2016

Apparently she was cancelled so thoroughly by the events of 2016 that I never even heard about the cancellation, despite constantly seeing news about Swift everywhere all the time whether I wanted to or not.

I personally like the theory that “Mad Max” is character that people tell stories about around the post apocalyptic camp fire. He’s a legend and the movies are just myths about him. That why even the first three don’t really blend well together when you really watch them. 

No normal person cared about Thanos when he was just an end-credits villain, but when he showed up in Infinity War people cared. Kang has already showed up as the baddie in a movie and he was boring.

I’m interested because Hawley and Olyphant. That description of the show makes me wonder why this is even an Alien show though.

I think Olyphant should play some kind of country lawman in a cowboy hat. He could be very brave and heroic, with a wry sense of humor, but also a worrisome temper.

Does anyone actually give a damn about Kang besides Kevin Fiege? They’re going all in on a boring and confusing villain played by a guy who’s about to go on trial for domestic abuse. It’s baffling to me that Marvel is betting the whole franchise on this character. Not even Thanos ever got his name in the title.

the russo’s themselves are even a great example. they were an interesting choice and had done good work on tv, obviously elevated the mcu, and everything they’ve made since has been the worst stuff of their career.

Yep. This. Rockets, a shield, a hammer, big green fists. Distinctive powers. Excitement around learning to use them and master them. A grade of power strength and weaknesses. When you remove a reference point (a human, earth) you remove the powers...power.  

The “the television shows have become too much to keep up with” argument is kind of BS though isn’t it? Marvel puts out like 20 total TV episodes a year. If you’re interested then watch. If you don’t watch then you’ll maybe miss a few Easter eggs in whatever MCU movie you see next.

Snyder has shown movie after movie that he has no idea how to write or film engaging characters, and it’s characters that make for great movies and franchises, not special effects.

No one wants this

There is only one, obvious answer: Kathy Bates.

Good lord, why.
