I’m up to episode 11 and without spoiling anything, I can confirm that Karen brings what every fan of the Netflix Marvelverse was baying at the moon for - her next-level newspaper editorials.

My hunch is that more have seen the movies than have read the book. For the movies, Rambo probably gets more associated with the sequels than the first (and the last one, actually), where you get more of the damaged human element. And the book does a pretty good job of making him very much not a hero so much as a…
I’d argue, then, that it makes it a loving homage (in the way every single Tarantino movie is a homage to something else) rather than a parody or satire. Embraces the wacky elements, and doesn’t appear embarrassed by them. John Wick is basically a statement to the audience: “hey, it’s okay to enjoy this incredibly…
In what world do you honestly think you can hold a creator with no connection whatsoever to a madman responsible for the actions of the madman?
*He does not have room for shades of grey in his black and white world view, he has always seen the world a very specific way in decades worth of comics, epitomized in the Max line of adult oriented comics. *
This was even touched upon in his ties with Daredevil, on the roof, where he was trying to force Matt to kill…
I don’t think it directly causes gun violence. I do think it plays a part in our gun obsessed culture that makes passing any kind of gun restrictions very difficult.
“But still, why are we treating the lone wolf who gets a bunch of guns and shoots up places as a hero, when in real life he’s always, always the villain?”
You do know in the Marvel universe youre a woman who Thanos wants to have sex with right?
Then you’ll love season 2 of Punisher where he decides to retire from being a vigilante and opens a Medieval themed restaurant that sells sausages called “Frank Castle’s Frank Castle.”
DUDE IS TRYING TO COPY MY LOOK. HIM AND GHOST RIDER. I TOLD HIM THAT THE FLAMES WERE JUST OVER THE TOP, BUT HE DIDN’T LISTEN.
It is atrocious, but serviceable. One of the challenges of sequential art is that the artist has to render the same characters in a recognizable manner in hundreds of panels in sequence. Very few artists are equipped to do that, and so individual styles are the norm, and these fall into two camps - the desired and the…
Hey! Earth-3 Trump! We should do a crossover team-up and fight my world’s murderous tyrant Mirror Universe Bernie Sanders! Are you still friends with Shadow Universe Trump and Victorious Nazi Timeline Trump? They won’t return my calls anymore.
“when has killing people ever been a good thing?” is one of those fucked up zen koans that’ll drive you crazy. the punisher was created in 1974, just after watergate and at the tail end of the vietnam war, when the american people knew we were losing and knew the war was prosecuted by poison and fire and…
Are you sure he’s not just a lord of thunder?
“Lecturing you about bacon.” Yeah, right.
You have got to be kidding. The WORLD is full of scumbags, and that’s the reason society has been torn down and rebuilt numerous times in the history of our planet, because people can’t reconcile this with their own experience.
Probably the best accomplishment of this movie is that it actually makes Thor the character a genuinely fun person to be around. Thor has previously had moments of fun, but on the whole, Hemsworth’s natual comedy and charm have long been crippled by confusion as to whether Thor is a responsible hero or if he’s allowed…
