Everything started hurting for me when I was in my early ‘20s. I’m in my ‘40s now and my back actually hurts less because 24" good quality monitors don’t weigh 80lbs each these days and I’m in better shape than I was 20+ years ago.

I mean, I didn’t need to know any of this, but everything she said sounds... fine? Seems fairly level-headed and reality-based, which at this point is honestly just kind of refreshing.

bruce willis was always the coolest movie star and this slow degradation is heartbreaking. i’m just gonna pretend he went out on top in 2011 with looper and moonrise kingdom and then retired.

Wow, I wonder what She-Hulk could’ve been if Gao had had the reins the whole time. As a casual Marvel watcher (I was mostly just tuning in out of loyalty to Tatiana Maslany), I thought the show wasn’t great but improved towards the end. The episode that took place in the retreat was my favorite.

but She-Hulk: Attorney At Law (the last Marvel show to come out before Secret Invasion) was fun and mostly operated within a traditional TV structure.

It breaks my heart that Ms. Marvel has the lowest viewership; but it’s to your point that introducing new characters hasn’t done as well as the shows featuring already established characters. HOPEFULLY The Marvels brings a new audience to her show and a hopeful second season. 

I’m the biggest MCU apologist most of you know. I found most of Disney+ to be at least watchable and for the most part, the good outweighed the bad.

What jumps out at me from this news today is that I thought these shows DID have showrunners of a sort. Certainly the early ones did, with WandaVision and Loki (Jac

As someone who was a young boy when the prequels were released, and enjoyed them very much for what they were, I ate up every second of trash that Obi-Wan was.

i also think loki, wandavision and f+ws benefitted IMMENSELY from the character groundwork already being laid in the movies.

It’s tempting to interpret this as Marvel Studios finally recognizing its faults and acknowledging that its attempt to turn its Disney+ shows into stretched-out movies was a failure, but Marvel’s TV shows weren’t failures until Marvel decided they were failures—which is to say this thing happening right now—and it

in the discourse’s business

It’s like they haven’t achieved object permanence. If they haven’t been told of a plan, they must assume one doesn’t exist.

My guess is Feige was given a short list of 10 recasting names within two days and whittled it down to 2-4 within a week.

Then, within a week, he had been given a broad outline for just getting

He would be great, but my first choice would be LaKeith Stanfield.

For his part, Wright says there hasn’t even been a discussion about replacing the actor because “it felt hasty to do anything without knowing how all of this plays out,” says Wright. Of course, it is a little wild to not even humor a contingency plan at this point but go off.

I can see it being called that by people with crypto details in their Twitter profile who spend their time saying how The Marvels is going to be a flop and that Rey ruined Star Wars

Gods, I wish. Not necessarily because I have any strong feelings about Jonathan Majors, but rather how adding Tig Notaro to anything makes me happy (the only bright spot of Army of the Dead for instance). 

I’ve got $20 on Kang somehow changing his appearance in the post credit of the final episode. We’ll only see him from behind or in silhouette.

Fuck yeah, another role for Don Cheadle.

I guarantee you that Brett Dalton did it, and no matter their best efforts to be rid of him, he will keep on breaking out prison/being reborn as an interdimensional alien/etc. for each new season.
