They should have let his character be retired for a movie or two, start the next one with him nearly being killed doing something heroic, he needs extensive reconstructive surgery, the bandages come off, and it’s one of Paul’s brothers.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they pick and choose what stories to use and combine Master of Stories and Avengers Prime. Lets face it, Loki is one of the few MCU characters people consistently like anymore. Having him as the new Nick Fury of the Multiverse would be a smart move.

That was a running joke in one of the DC animated films (I forget which one). Mr. Terrific said the numbering system was pointless because each Earth called itself Earth-1.

Yeah, him being nearly completely absent from the entire episode felt like working around Ray’s passing.

they will sit on it until the season 2 premiere where whatever dark power he’s seeking corrupts him into something alien allowing a different actor to take over the role.

I mean, Lucas was reportedly fairly heavily involved in the Mortis trilogy.

At one point they were going to reveal, case in point, that Darth Bane/Revan were pulling the Son’s strings and feeding his paranoia, but Lucas took issue with Dark Side users being able to have Force Ghosts.

No shit. Both are emulating the 60s-70s Filmation style. Sealab vibes. Jesus Christ.

pippin is the bard. Merry is like a fighter, maybe with a rogue dip. could go with gnome or halfling for race, both would be fairly accurate.

My chaotic neutral bard has a feat in advanced gaslighting and if you tell them otherwise it’s clearly a part of a plot engineered by Lolth, who, like most arch villains, has no sense of humor.

While I disagree about your characterization of the reaction to Finn and Rose, you do raise an issue that seriously annoyed me about the Abrams sequel movies and most of the TV shows: instant travel. In the original trilogy the characters had to spend time going from place to place and that gave the movies time to do…

Here’s my idea.

Goddamn take your star

14 episodes fewer than TOS. 33 episodes fewer than Enterprise.

Season finale - Burnham walks into a sonic shower, finds Kelvin timeline Spock waiting with a towel. Slow pan to a picture of kids on the nightstand surrounded by Sarek, Amanda and Gabrielle Burnham (just because happy ending). Kirk knocks on door to accompany Burnham to a ceremony launching Discovery with a young…

Either the changelings or, maybe more likely as they are TNG-specific and one of TNG’s biggest unresolved plot threads, the Conspiracy parasite aliens.

You mean like how Homer Simpson has been in a coma since 1993 and all his wacky adventures meeting celebrities, travelling to outer space, and fighting killer Itchy & Scratchy robots are the bizarre hallucinations of his unconscious mind?

That was just a rumor, that’s not how Hollywood contracts work. Casting may well be an issue, as well as giving more time for pre-production and (the recently much maligned) post-production/VFX. Had nothing to do with Fox.

That wouldn’t be out of the question, since Moriarty did kidnap her for blackmail.
