Yes, exactly like the US. Which is something that more isolationist societies like Japan could learn from, even though a great many vocal Americans seem to be walking back from that crucial aspect of their own culture right now.

Being a businessman means taking risks, and if you don’t understand that then I can only assume you have never accomplished anything in your life that meant taking a risk.

Or maybe, a culture should be open enough to new ideas brought about by immigration, instead of thinking itself perfect and superior to all others. There’s a word for that kind of thing, y’know.

It might be worth it if it pisses him off and take us one small step closer to a resignation.

I have books that I bought, read, and ended up hating. I feel guilty about donating shitty books.

Eh, I liked DISCO, but its cliffhanger wasn’t much of a doozy. It was literally “welp, looks like our season-long arc has just about wrapped up OH LOOK HERE COMES A FANSERVICE REFERENCE”

Why can’t any of these people just turn to face what they’re looking at?

There’s a Malaysian proverb that’s quite apt for them: he who ate the chilli, feels the burn.

there’s always the chance that Tony could, as this theory suggests, live on in other ways.

- If there’s gonna be Gwen Stacy, it’s probably gonna be Spider-Gwen from Into the Spider-Verse (which would be a great get for Marvel, c’mon Feige, make it happen)

I think that “characters are true to their nature” thing is key. Because I still remember the fan outcry that greeted the Tim Burton-Nic Cage Superman project in which Superman doesn’t fly. Or the JJ Abrams Superman project in which Lex Luthor is revealed to be a Kryptonian. Or the Darron Aronofsky Batman project in…

Goddamit Sony, you think us filthy foreigners don’t know the meaning of “dickwad”??

I mean, Marvel is in a damned-if-you-do-damned-if-you-don’t situation anyway. They committed to both the deaths at the end of IW and the year-long gap till Endgame years ago. They had to know that they could either do it this way, or stay coy for a full year about about whether all those heroes are truly dead while…

I’m surprised there’s not been much discussion about how the MCU Spider-Man takes the most liberties with its source material than any other MCU hero to date.

Mitch Hennesey in The Long Kiss Goodnight! Excellent choice, Mr L. Jackson. Possibly the least badass role played by the most badass actor ever, and a terrifically funny and lovable comic relief sidekick.

There’s a Malaysian proverb that I think really deserves more traction, seeing how appropriate it is in this era of disingenuous internet discourse: he who ate the chilli, feels the burn.

Isn’t it obvious? Because you were meant to initially mistrust her. She’s supposed to look odd amongst all the be-uniformed Resistance personnel. You’re supposed to think she’s either incompetent or a First Order mole.

Could that be John Legend in that one-eyed fuzzy monster costume or is he too big a get for this show?

Easy guess: maybe he didn’t feel threatened by them the way he apparently felt threatened by Dushku coming on as his co-lead on the show.

That there’s another guy who needs banishing to the greys. His dumb little jokes make sense to no one but himself.
