Old Guard 2: The Quickening

Baron Zemo needs his gold tiara when he leads the Thunderbolts. He looks incomplete without it.

Thus far it feels like an improvement over the third. I don’t mind the episodes being longer because it this American horror story is coherent & engaging. The cast is humongous, so splitting them up into different adventures was practically a necessity.The least compelling is the West Coast team, whose absence…

If #MorbiusSweep leads to Morbius 2 but #SaveLegendsOfTomorrow doesn’t result in season 8, it’ll be proof we don’t live in the best of all possible worlds.

It’s actually B.

Joel Coen knows what he did.

I like both movies! Don’t make them fight!

Is it worse that Naomi got cancelled days after its first season finale or that In The Dark got cancelled before its latest season even premiered?

That frees up her schedule to reprise Typhoid Mary in the MCU!

I’m really glad they didn’t use its alternate ending.

I met John Astin after he did a play reading years ago. He was such a delightful gentlemen. He sounds like he ought to write an autobiography too.

However they bring Moon Knight back, I hope they fix the issues with his debut season. Its three stars were superb, but the story was made of enormous plot holes & awkward pacing. Not only did it get Egyptian mythology wrong, they didn’t bother making its magic appear internally consistent. I would’ve gladly…
