The trick & the debate were both excellent moments. Monica really got shafted in the post-lockdown rewrites, though; her scenes in the finale are all pretty bad.

I think he’s the guy in the watercolor court sketches with the panicked expression during Todd’s bit.

The other thing I find striking here is the lengths to which the various power players involved seem to be going to protect Ezra Miller. They’re not Brad Pitt famous or Cate Blanchett talented or Tom Hanks beloved — how many rank and file Americans are even familiar with Ezra Miller? Is America suffering from a bad

Just like every MCU show, there are a few places where ONE extra line of dialogue in a couple of places might help.

“I just rent this place out to cover overhead, Jen. I didn’t know who these morons were.” (Assuming Mary Kay isn’t correct and I’m wrong and Blonsky knew what he was doing and is part of it)

“Oh, the D.A.

“distracts from the story, which is that my life fell apart right when I was learning to be both Jen and She-Hulk. Those are my stakes, K.E.V.I.N.”

i’m with you on all of this—i really enjoy the meta element of lambasting misogynistic and easter egg-heavy fan culture, and her ability to do her own retcon is great. it’s the lack of wrap-up *after* the retcon that bums me out. she took agency from KEVIN, but she didn’t actually gain agency *in the story*--she

Given Matt Murdock’s romantic history, She-Hulk would be about the only person capable of having a relationship with him and not get ‘fridged.

Pretty decent series. They tried to thread the needle of being a sitcom while also being the typical Marvel show with stakes. It wasn’t perfect, but they got it done for the most part. I feel like if they had a couple more episodes that emphasized the sitcom aspects more over the Marvel stakes, it would have been

Here’s the deal. I can crave pizza one day and tacos the next. I can watch 10 hours of football one weekend and then not be up for it the next. I can read non-fiction heavy stuff and then pick up the latest Reacher or Bosch the next.

Some days, I need Winter Soldier. Some days, I need She-Hulk. It’s all OK. We’re all

I was out on the 4th-wall smashing of the climax until we got to K.E.V.I.N. I don’t know why I enjoyed that bit as much as I did (a reveal that Feige suffered some calamity and had his consciousness uploaded to a computer, kind of like Arnim Zola in Winter Soldier, would have been even more fun), but I did.

My point is social media, religion and now politics make for a better case than what Alan Moore is saying. He’s not wrong, I’m just not agreeing with him or how the article is written singling out superheroes. If he included those that came before superheroes then that’s another deal. Or if he said it’s going to

Rorschach isn’t a criticism of Batman, he’s a direct reference to the Question and Steve Ditko’s Randian philosophy.

Well Star Wars confirmed that its first rebellion was essentially pointless

I’d be as disillusioned as Moore if I thought I’d written sufficiently pathetic, disgusting repudiations of the fascist superhero mindset and people decided to unironically declare “Veidt was right!” and “Rorschach is the hero we need!” Then you have all those Thin Blue Line chucklefucks who emblazon Punisher skulls

FUCKING THANK YOU.

The very early word on his new Born Again series (for... 2024 so I guess this could all change--and 18 episodes??) is that it won’t assume people watched the Netflix Daredevil and piggy back on plot from it.

I think this single episode gave us more time with Matt in an actual courtroom than the entirety of the Netflix Daredevil series.

The 3 things Daredevil is most known for are the fighting, flipping about, and fucking. So to me this was a slam dunk of a return. Looking forward to see how they wrap everything up but whatever the finale brings I’m sure it will be taken really well by everyone.

the racist “backlash” was actually made up by amazon

Plus, Namor and Black Panther have ties to a fantastic group of heroes.
