Oh geez, they're totally going to give him a billion dollars to do a follow-up, aren't they? Why is this country tripling down on everything terrible?

They already did the road trip story back in the first movie.

There was a mid credits scene this time around.

Yeah, the energy that formed him was yellow, like the Mind Stone and not red like her Chaos Magic.

I don’t think Dottie is important at all. The person who insinuated that Dottie was important was AGATHA after all, so I’m pretty sure she was a red herring.

Rather than being relieved, I’m actually a little bummed that this apparently has no connection to the first two games. I was totally expecting the II in the title to eventually turn into a III after some big plot twist.

Yeah, my reaction to that was “don’t tell ME not to do sidequests, I don’t even CARE if they’re useless!”

Man, we can’t even rely on people driving regular cars safely, nevermind flying ones.

Yeah, I'll take Guy Who Is Taking Too Long With The Checks over Insurrectionist Proto-Hitler any day of the week.

I feel like ET screaming in the field is SUPPOSED to be kind of scary.

Sounds kinda cool, sort of wish it had been made and I saw it as a kid. Probably end up as a beloved memory, like pretty much every movie that ever freaked me out a little as a kid eventually became.

Don't forget that he also did all this during a continuing pandemic.

Lol, I didn't even think of that, that's funny!

I still don't get why Sam wants Song of the South to be on Disney+ so badly.

Yeah, I'm kind of impressed that the entire setting of the game would have been different if the Final Splatfest had gone the other way.

If the comics in the 1st art book are canon, there was a nuclear war as well.

Mario dressed like he votes Republican? Look man, as much as I like Wario, he'd totally be excited for Trump 2024, let's be honest.

Wario, Waluigi, and an Evil Peach would basically be these guys from the old anime series Yatterman.

Yeah, I thought it was really cool too. And for the things that weren't there, Nintendo pretty much NEVER puts everything in the early year Direct, so there will probably still be surprises to come later on.

I had completely given up hope for a Xenoblade 2 rep, so this news made me super happy. They could have ended the Direct right there and I’d be satisfied.
