I greatly prefer Microsoft’s stance on legacy games than whatever Sony seems to be doing - between backwards compatibility on their new console and fuss free FPS boosts and upgrades done by their team for any developer that signs off on it, the difference seems to be night and day.

I think our respective replies got blipped. They just want to hate women in peace :(

OH THERE’S A DISMISS FEATURE
I only just realised this, I was wondering how my comment calling them and anyone depraved enough to star their post out as a victim blaming misogynist got blipped from the discussion thread (:

Ah cheers!

The best episode yet for me, it felt legitimately like film quality - and quite a surprise that the writer from this episode was the same as the last, considering the tonal differences. As soon as the last half kicked in, the tension didn’t break, and that last scene with John Walker was such a momentous “oh shit”…

lol

Can someone fill me in on when the AV Club became such a misogynist victim blaming hub

I’m sure a libertarian will be along any time now to help fill you in

Yeah if I had to guess, she’s working undercover with being shitty at capes being her cover story.

The exchange for context:

Sam: “And Nagel referring to the American test subject like Isaiah wasn’t even a real person. Just makes me wonder how many people have to get steamrolled to make way for this hunk of metal.”
Bucky: “Well, it depends who you ask. That hunk of metal saved a lot of lives.”

So we know the shield is…

Also, Jesus, Sharon Carter went from FBI agent to high-level fence for stolen artwork awfully easily! How does one even make that career jump? Was she actually Hydra all along back in her SHIELD days?

Although telepathy seems to be a bigger thing as Karli just knew that the scientist was also dead.

Um, what hunk of metal? Wait, you meant the shield? Everything you were doing has absolutely fuck all to do with the shield.

So you didn’t like the fact Madripoor wasn’t predominantly occupied by Asians, despite acknowledging that it’d be problematic if it was? *scratches head*

Is it me or does this trailer telegraph everyone who’s going to die in the first 20 minutes of the film?

Yup yup, preaching to the choir. Miss America Chavez is turning up in Doctor Strange: Multiverse of Madness also, which checks out with her origin if they happen to find themselves in a certain utopian reality - that or they just meet her during her dimension hopping escapades.

Man I’m bummed that New Warriors never saw the light of day because Milana Vayntrub would have been a great Squirrel Girl (and Keith David as MODOK!)

You might be right. I thought how they noted John’s conditioning was a bit strange, and he seemed to take a punch well and be unnaturally handy with the shield while going toe-to-toe with the rent-a-super-soldiers, but trailers have shown Falcon slinging the shield pretty well also, so it’s hard to say.

Something I…

And the therapy session where Bucky pretty quickly says that if Steve was wrong about Sam than he was wrong about him... that came so fast.

Not only Hulk but also Emil Blonsky/Abomination; but yeah, 100% on the money. It seems that this/these Power Broker(s) may be able to taketh away - that or the power boosts aren’t permanent and require re-ups - so John-boy’s irritability may be him being against the clock to get some results for his pusher.
