it is almost like George Lucas was a fan of Dune or something...

Except no Droids, AI, computers, lightsabers, and Paul is actually a cautionary tale and not a hero’s one like Star Wars.

Star Wars owes a lot to Dune, so that isn’t super surprising.

Arthur and Orm fight some kind of massive robot spider

cartoon of writers’ room with a wheel of fortune marked “genres to scifi-up”: Western, Noir, Roman, Chinese Empire, African Kingdom, Aztec, Egypt, Catholic... spinner’s comment: “Damn, it always gets stuck on ‘Western’”

He may not be anyone’s “favorite” character, but I liked him well enough to buy his 90's solo comic.

Honestly I do love Wonder Man because for some reason most of the scant Avengers stuff I had as a kid focused on him by sheer chance. I didn’t have much in the way of comics since it was a rare treat to get one and they were usually random and out of order.

I know this won’t stop the racists from coming out of the wood work but Wonder Man is absolutely no ones favorite character. He’s D level at best. Yahya Abdul-Mateen II have proved himself over and over and over again that he knows his genre work. So if anyone complains that it’s not Nathan Fillion because he was once …

As was noted at the time, he never promised not to stop giving updates, just that every time he did give an update he got massive grief for it, and when he did not give updates, he got massive grief for it, so he said jokingly (it was on a podcast and he was laughing as he said it) that he should promise to stop giving…

Exactly. Ross is pure military, hell I wish they would have just given the part back to Sam Elliot. I thought his take was perfect. I mean he’s no older than Harrison so what’s the risk?

And those are our only choices?  fine.  Venture Bros.

It’s nice to see that many First Nations folks packed into a prominent project. Especially a bunch of new comers, and behind the camera. And a bunch of Americans at that.

Canada has public funding for media in a way that means there’s a decent enough scene there for Native film and TV. Just a lot more people with a…

There’s a few changes to the bridge from its appearance on Discovery. I’m still not a fan of the grey bulkheads separating the stations, and how bulky and busy the stations look. I thought the way the original series had the stations all connected together as one sweep around the outer portion of the bridge was slick.

It was an innocuous joke. There are plenty of people who have been ribbed for their appearance. Referencing the movie GI Jane is hardly the most cutting insult that anyone including most of the Smith family has ever had to endure. But again - fine, heckle him. Yell at him. Make a statement during your acceptance…

lol Alopecia is NOT a life threatening disease, and she has literally millions of dollars to alleviate her issues with losing her hair. My brother has alopecia. The dude from Barry has alopecia.

Well, she is the worst.

But Will Smith was the first to get physical here.  So, do you . . . agree with lostmyburneragain that Smith is soft?

Fuck that bullshit. 

It was perhaps in poor taste, and I wouldn’t blame her for feeling somewhat offended, but it honestly didn’t seem outright mean-spirited at all to me. Supportive if anything. He said he liked the look!

You wanna see some fucken blood spilt?
