Seconded. Villeneuve’s movies aren’t always perfect* but right now I don’t think anyone matches his talent for visuals, and seeing anything he does on the big screen is a treat.

I will happily wear a mask for 2 hours and 35 minutes to go see this on a big screen. Can't wait.

The twist in that story is so great. “When we were children Loki transformed himself into a snake, and he knows I love snakes, so I went to pick up the snake to admire it, and he transformed back into himself and he was like, AAH, it’s me! then he stabbed me. We were 8 at the time.”

Everything Cap related in Spiderman Homecoming is gold.  Even the way he turns his chair around in the detention scene is great  

i’m gonna throw in a dark horse ‘best line’ and say it’s in iron man 3:

I’m quite partial to

It was more that it was the inciting incident for Strange to become the Sorcerer Supreme, save their reality from Dormammu and learn time magic in the first place.

It stopped me for a second too, but I finally decided that this universe had Christine dying as an Absolute Point.

The “main” universe probably had Strange losing the use of his hands at that point. Imagine Main Strange doing the same thing, only signaling, taking different route, paying attention to road instead of…

Side note: do folks think that this was one of the better voiced episodes?

The only thing that confused me about this episode, was the premise that Christine was supposed to die. Yes I know this is a What If universe, but in our (sacred?) timeline Christine doesn’t die, so it’s not like she HAS to die.

Melodrama is also not good. The songwriting is half-baked, and the production is flat as hell. But if you like that album, you have to give credit to Antinoff. He’s on every track of that record. 

I love the way we’re just going to assume that it’s Jack Antonoff that made the records polarizing, rather than the fact that all those ‘polarizing’ records actually occur at essentially the same point in the pop star trajectory for those artists ie, the point at which they start doing more of the…

This article is forgetting that Antonoff also produced large parts of the wildly acclaimed predecessors to Solar Power and COTCC, Melodrama and Norman Fucking Rockwell. I’m not saying he’s perfect or that I’m a huge fan, but clearly there’s a reason why these artists want to work with him, and the idea that he’s some…

Oh, don’t do that. Homophobia doesn’t literally mean scared of gay people. The phrasing is also used to refer to dislike or prejudice. This isn’t new, and you’re being disingenuous.

It’s a joke that is right in line with countless Phyllis jokes or having Meredith say in her experience, guys prefer having sex in positions where they can’t see your face. They didn’t shy away from jokes that were flat out mean to the performers. 

Has to be BJ right?

Even in this episode, Thanos’ position seems to be, “Okay, I won’t obliterate half the universe, but I still think the idea has some merit.”

Agreed, it was a bit of an odd choice. With the way that the episode made a point to re-establish that the Wakanda force field renders the city invisible, you could have had Yondu genuinely believe that there’s nothing there, no place to return the kid to. If he found out the city still existed much later, but didn’t…

I trust Coogler implicitly here. I believe he has the vision and desire to do right by Boseman and has the ability and standing to tell any of the studio guys to stick it if they try to interfere.

So, if Coogler uses CGI, recasting, deleted scenes, voice over, impersonators, Pet Sematary style resurrection, whatever.…

I really didn’t think that was Del Toro voicing the collector because, as the review says, it’s a way more reserved performance than in the films, to the point where it felt like an imitation by an actor who knows Del Toro’s voice but doesn’t know this character. Also, I really didn’t buy this prissy antiques hoarder…
