I kind of feel like the show dropped the ball a bit with a lot of characters. Sam’s and Bucky’s stories seemed to be fairly well handled, which I guess is fitting given it was their show. I don’t know if they did the best job of showing that the MCU would have an issue with a black Captain America, though. Outside of…

Fair enough. I guess I do see what you mean about it having a different kind of energy. For me that kind of works because it contrasts the reality of those segments against the more dramatic and stylish “flashbacks.” So it emphasizes how Kane is remembered in all these varied, looming and larger than life ways before…

Plus, this framing device relies upon a large number of people somehow witnessing Kane’s final moments and last whispered words in his private bedroom.

No lie. My high school boyfriend had political aspirations. We started dating when I was 17 and he was 18. He wouldn’t sleep with me until I turned 18. I remember thinking, My hormone-filled boyfriend is turning down sex for three months - politicians will do any weird thing for their careers.

So what do we figure the odds are that John eventually cracks under the pressure of being Captain America and getting his ass kicked one too many times by the Flag Smashers and takes whatever made the FS super soldiers? Sam and Bucky work together to stop him, Sam takes the shield from him and says something about him…

In fairness, though, season 1 had Tommy Elliot get surgery that made him look exactly like Bruce Wayne so the universe has already established it as possible. Plus the show exists in the Arrowverse, which somehow decided that the ability to stretch your body also allows you to change the color of your skin. Medical…

But, “You have such a beautiful smile, try not to forget mine.” That’s something someone real would say.

Steve lived out his life in an alternate timeline and only came back at the end, probably just temporarily to give Sam the SHIELD/say his goodbyes. So in his timeline it’s possible he is rolling in wealth, saved Bucky, etc...

Yes. Legends had to fail hard in its first season, though, before it seems like the CW just kind of let them do whatever. And Riverdale I’ve never really watched but I get the impression it takes itself a bit too seriously for what a live action PPG needs.

This could be good if they can find the right tone. Maybe something like Riverdale crossed with Aquabats or Batman ‘66. Or like Legends of Tomorrow. I don’t know. It being CW makes me think they’re planning to play it straight, though, and I'm not sure if that will work.

They spent hours at the pub and got along “brilliantly” but here’s where things took a turn for Morgan: He put her in a cab, and that cab took her to the party where she met Harry. Morgan said Markle ghosted him as soon as she met her husband.

If I recall this was a turning point for a lot of characters. This was essentially Alphinaud’s realization that he “ain’t-shit” as you say. I think “pride goeth before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall” pretty much sums up Alphinaud’s ARR arc.

I never felt like the movie lacked answers. Weird stuff happened but I don’t recall anything where I felt like I needed more explanation. Danny was definitely psychic and the hotel was haunted. The ghosts pushed Jack over the edge, although they didn’t have to push very hard. Parts of the movie don’t make sense if…

And here I thought the stores were the middleman. Scalpers would be more like a sub-middleman. Or sub-middlehuman since I’m sure they’re not all men. But they’re also not in the middle so I guess they’d just be sub-human? Yeah, that’s it, scalpers are subhuman.

Isn’t it possible that Wanda could resurrect Vision? Aside from what we’ve seen, I mean. Wanda got her powers from the Mind Stone, which was then used to create Vision so they do have a somewhat deeper connection than just their relationship.

Abrams came back and declared that, no, the box actually contained everything you ever dreamed of

I never thought JLo was that great a singer and her “Jenny From The Block” thing always rang hollow. She could be a nice person and I have nothing against her personally but she does seem a little out of touch, even back then. This “challenge,” though... A Fitbit, pair of sunglasses and other such things may not mean…

Ted Danson’s character is not an unlikable moron asshole, fortunately, nor did he fail upward. It’s possible things will change but at the moment he’s presented as a decent guy who was a good businessperson, has no political experience, but is genuinely trying.

I’m not really sure how much of that can be attributed to Nintendo. Sony was already experimenting with motion control on the PS2 with the EyeToy. Using an illuminated orb to track objects in a 3D space was a logical next step given it was standard in the motion capture industry. The wand controller may have taken a…
