Gonna be especially sad when Fett like for sure dies next episode. The Razor Crest isn’t coming back and Djarin can’t keep riding around in the passenger seat in season 3, so law of cool writing dictates he’s gonna clean the old man stink out of Slave-1 and fly it around for the forseeable future.

No, I read the whole article.  I just didn’t click through to the other article.  That was on me.

I get that.  I just note that when you’re doing four origin stories, you need the first movie to have nearly a nothing villain.  It’s why I’m so against Doom.  Like GOTG went with a variation on Ronan that was virtually all the way stripped down.  He was just a mean dude with a hammer who was real mad about...

Oh heh, missed that part.  My bad!

Do the directors who do this ever stop to think that this all kind of sounds like “People should be willing to get extremely sick to see my genius”?

Unless they plan to set the movie in the 60s, they’re gonna have a hard time doing a “challenging the unknown when suddenly cosmic rays... in SPACE!” origin story, since every hero in the MCU has been to space enough for it to be a joke now.  So they’re gonna need a new place to go get powers, and my money is on the

Yes.  Mostly because it answers the immediate troll “I’m just asking you to debate me WHY” stuff preemptively, at least a little.

Part of me does wish they had gone with the last names for a few of those, I’d love to see them trying to market Laufeyson or Tano.  But you don’t have a lot of options for Tiana and Moana, they don’t have last canon last names.

It’d be a waste if they did fight Doom. How many FF movies are there so far that compress Doom’s origin story in the first movie and make him a ridiculous figure with no presence? It’s three. And then also he surfs in a sequel.

Let them fight Mole Man or some other FF villain that we’ve never seen on screen before and

Daughter’s daughters are grandchildren.  Daughter’s daughter’s daughters are great-grandchildren.

What stream do I need to watch to get them to support the Coalition of Immokalee Workers? Because honestly without that fuck all these other ones.

Was that why she didn’t want it? I thought it was all because of Luciferase, an enzyme that evil scientists really ought to consider renaming because Christians always spot it right away and they know that it’s clearly made out of chunks of fresh Satans thrown in a centrifuge, and not named after the morning star

Even without the racism fuck this for trying to repackage some dusty ass museum piece joke from the schoolyard sandboxes of the nineteen fuckin’ forties. Maybe get a few jokes about buffal0-head nickels or how greasy wartime lipstick is while you’re hacking away?  Are Germans next to get mad about this movie because

It slowly shrank in the wash over a thousand years.

My favorite type of internet weirdo is the hyper-christian who thinks that there’s a global cabal of evil satanists who are devious, inscrutably powerful, and easily stopped if you just notice that they keep naming stuff after Satan.

Ooh a classic example of “Alien that couldn’t possibly put its shirt on without taking its head off first.” Right up there with an Ithorian.  Excellent.  Chef’s kiss.

The closest anyone gets on Star Trek to doing it right is on DS9 where Sisko was into baseball not just in the 40s (though also then) but in like the mid to late 2100s.

Oh it’s easy because you just follow the other TNG example, the ol’ “Two humans and a Gleep” where when you need to cite an example, you just say “One of history’s great composers, such as Bach, Beethoven, or Tr’Bindulon!”  Instant cred for dropping a weird alien name, probably from a recent century!  And still get

Fash spend a lot of money on anime tiddies, this is a known thing.

Man what a bummer though, one of my friends is a voice actor in Subverse and they’d be immensely pissed about something like this.

Yes, it’s the literary equivalent of Nuts & Gum, good point.
