Are we going to ban basketball players for being too tall? Dominant athletes, Lebron, Messi, Serena, that mountain guy, are often genetic freaks in one way or another.

I think “overstuffed/overwhelming/exhausting” or some variation thereof was inevitable given what this film is. I mean, it’s more or less a crossover of every one of the other 16, 17 Marvel films to date. What you don’t want to hear (and haven’t so far) is stuff like “Messy/incoherent/scattered”, indicating the movie…
The trailers indicate fairly clearly at least part of the movie does, given the shots of Doctor Strange’s house and Peter reacting to a spaceship while in a schoolbus.
Aw, cmon, really? Thanks for dropping a huge, obvious spoiler into the discussion.
Hey Comey, you’re no Joe McCarthy!
She did. And then...? I just think it’s weird to introduce a character who then entirely disappears for the second half of the season.

I always conflate this show in my memories with two other shows.
There’s already been a nice revival of Thunderbirds recently.
If you liked those shows you might want to check out Siren on Freeform, Travelers, and The Crossing.
I think Techno-Thriller is well established enough as a subgenre to fit Airwolf into. Largely because Airwolf, aside from it being the way the overall premise of the show works, doesn’t really care much about the implications of the Airwolf technology. It’s just “Flying Supergun fights bad guys”. I think of it…
Blue Thunder, Airwolf, Knight Rider, Streethawk, The Highwayman, Viper, Team Knight Rider, and to some extent Automan. All the “Supervehicle” action adventure shows I can think of from the 80's and 90's.
Funnily enough there was a plot on Airwolf about the thing being secretly sentient or haunted or something.
Aside from being shows built around high tech helicopters they were pretty vastly different shows in tone and concept.

The only one I really agree with on this list is Space Academy. But my list would be: Blake’s 7, Project UFO, The Phoenix, Ark 2, and Jason of Star Command.
The only problem this show has is it sometimes brings up stuff and then forgets about it. Lawanda’s daughter is one. Grace Choi is another.
Making a character not a cartoony stereotype isn’t being PC. The original Chop Chop is so weird and inhuman he’d need to be a CGI character in a live action adaptation.
If you’re spending money to make a movie, why not try to get every hook you can? Put it this way. I am, to some small degree, an “influencer” in my social circle for pop entertainment, mostly because I’m lame enough to pay attention to the upcoming films, trailers, entertainment news, and then tell my friends the bits…
Is there any particular evidence that audiences don’t like period piece war movies? If you want to dismiss Wonder Woman, there’s also recently Dunkirk, which did well.
“Inglorious Basterds meets lots of cool dogfighting sequences” is a movie I’d like to see.
Enh. Someone writes an article “A woman pulled off something cool and difficult”, and the first comment is “I wonder if is was mostly just the autopilot”, it does come off kind of dismissive and sexist. I don’t feel “outraged”, I don’t feel like anyone is a “victim”, but if someone had asked me that to my face in that…
