And note that the official Star Lord Twitter account now has T’Challa, almost like they’re doing it for every episode and all that outrage over Peggy “replacing” Sam was completely stupid.

the number of “Covid skeptic X is on a ventilator/has died” stories is going to skyrocket as the Delta variant tears through the more concentrated pool of unvaccinated people, and I am a bit alarmed at my indifference.

Red Skull blew up a train and dropped a mountain on Hydra Stomper as a plan to steal the tesseract back.

She is the embodiment of everything despicable about her brand of “conservative”. Entitled, insipid, rude, arrogant, bullying and empty-headed. How is it possible to be as wrong as often AND still have a gig on daytime TV? Could it have something to do with her father? If conservative women can’t find anyone to offer…

It looks like they might try to expand the First Lady Coup into its own subplot.

It’s Strange. I suppose, but who am I to say?

I think it mostly amounts to “My pro-worker stance scales all the way up” for some people.

It’s not about Covid.    Her contract explicitly said theatrical release only, and Disney didn’t do that.   So they needed to renegotiate, and they didn’t.   They need take hit for breaking that contract, one way or another.

Apparently it’s not based on a just percentage of box office. She was to receive large bonuses at different levels of box office. So, for example, box office hits $300 she gets $10 mil. Box reaches $400 mil, she gets another $10 mil, and so on. Completely made up numbers here obviously, just to illustrate the setup.

I think you’ve captured where the situation is at:

There are a number of other lawsuits pending as well including one involving John Krasinski and Emily Blunt with A Quiet Place II for the same reason.

No one cares about your boner.

I will die on the hill of liking Che and Jost’s Weekend Update. So there!

Take your star and GTFO.

You know how that ended.

Wow

I never understand why people say stuff like that. You can’t punch cancer in the face or kick it in the balls, as much as many of us wish we could.  What does being a “fighter” have to do with it?  All that kind of language does it make it sound like people who succumb to diseases were somehow weak or just didn’t…

Somebody on Reddit pointed out that saying something that was meant to be reassuring but that actually freaks everyone out more is a total Tobias move.
