I want all of Beta Shift to be on live action sci fi TV shows. Boimler’s on The Boys, Rutherford’s on Loki... let’s get Tendi on Quantum Leap and Mariner on Stargirl or something (I don’t watch tons of TV, so that’s why the other examples are from this article)!

Cuz they’re gonna adapt anime anyway and I’d prefer them to adapt something they have a chance in hell of getting right. The bomb’s gonna go off regardless - it’d be nice if it’s at least in the vicinity of the enemy camp, y’know?

Y’know, this feels like one of the few anime that could be adapted by the West and not lose much in translation...

Controversial opinion:

This is evergreen at this point.

I know that feel, bro. You know how weird it is to hear Alexis Denisof speak with his natural, AMERICAN accent? It’s like listening to a cat bark!

Hey, you never know... maybe Melvin’s in hiding from Fisk, and his pseudonym is Tinsley!

Hey, does anyone remember 99 Bottles of Beer? It was this wild take on almost a bullet hell from Shockwave.com. Basically, Tom Cruise’s character from Cocktail forced you (I think? Details are fuzzy) to make and drink drinks from an ever-cascading torrent of liquor bottles, with liver-saving OJ and murderous heavy…

Unless you were there back in 2001, you probably don’t know how shocking it was to hear that Stan Lee, the face of Marvel, would be working with DC. It was a bit like learning Mitch McConnell would be campaigning for a liberal Democrat.

Actually, the side games more happen on Adult Link side of things...

Why won’t they let him die? Cuz this is a thing that happens with Japanese properties (primarily, though it happens in other places too - superheroes with legacies come to mind).

We know there are three separate ones extant at this point, each having split from Ocarina of Time; the so-called “Adult Timeline,” “Child Timeline,” and contradiction-restoring “Basketball Timeline.”

But when a woman falls through Wanda’s door with a terrifying story of a town gone mad, the Scarlet Witch will have to muster her wits and chaos magic to deal with an insidious threat!

Yeah, that’s a safe bet, given that he’s a skinny brown haired twenty something fella. Or maybe he could be Young Bruce? That feels like the kind of subversive weirdness that the Joker films would do...

I don’t think that the original premise of the comics would be impossible to pull off in a film (especially if they convinced marketing to keep the friggin’ twist under wraps so at least non-comic fans would be surprised), but they’d have had to have been building to it for a LONG time, or at least had it on a roadmap…

Yeah... I think this is a film that people should be able to see, and fair use is absolutely a thing, but the ol’ Totally Not Mark Treatment is fully understandable here. All WBD can do is put up roadblocks to this being legally viewable, instead of actually stopping it, but they can probably be VERY good roadblocks...

I fully agree with positioning Zemo to be the leader of the team. You could even get him to square it with his “no supers” policy - frame it as harm reduction for him. Have the Contessa present it by saying “Yes, supers are bad, but they’re everywhere... and we have some that are on our side. Isn’t it the responsible…

Exactly. It’s wonderful that your rugpull is environmentally friendly, truly. You’re still left with no money that probably went to fund right wing jerkwads. It’s better, but it’s still terrible.

Britney... your commitment to the ellipsis dwarfs my own... keep up the good fight, friendo...

Okay, so obviously the right answer is Killmonger. Everyone knows that. So let’s go with something a bit more obscure.
