Yeah. It is called WandVision, not The Monica Rambeau Show featuring Wanda & Vision

I feel like the majority of writing, tweeting and talking about genre media always makes some cursory nods towards the actual text and then devolves into opinions about how the text did or didn’t ‘work’ or how they would have done it differently. Rather than taking the text as a given and then discussing what

THANK YOU. Although I respect the perspective of this article - respectively, come ON. The world of Marvel was never meant as an intentional segway to social commentary. Part of the art of these comics are that they portray a world that is seperate and insular from our own. And this is not to say at all that this

Agreed. They had a really tight storytelling window here; expanding the role of the fourth/fifth lead has a cost. She nailed her role and now the people want more. That’s not “doing her dirty.”

Dude. This is Charles. If there is any non-white character with any substance, he will argue that the show should be all about them, regardless of the actual show’s intent.

it seems like another example of this collection of bloggers needing to criticize a white character if there’s a black or non-white character in close proximity (on that basis alone).

Well said. Of course Rambeau isn’t the real hero of this show, it’s Wandavision, not Monicavision, how is that not clear?

If anything, I applaud the creators saw Wanda’s story as her own all the way through. [Famous so-and-so] or Monica or someone else didn’t need to step in to save Wanda, she pulled herself back from the abyss even with the harm she did. As I said about Dr. Strange to those who clamored for an eleventh-hour assist from

Agreed.

Can I make one point about the Man of Steel and the infamous broken neck?

But if nerd sites don’t make it an “us” vs “them” situation, they can’t inculcate the fandom towards toxicity. If nerds stop acting like assholes what would io9 have to “report”?

‘Ok,we’ll stop doing this once we’ve killed someone’
It’s hard to not read it that way

That’s just the kind of thing a plant from big Velcro would say. Nice try

Spray it with kicker or my favorite, sprinkle it with baking soda. 

And more importantly, unless you bought something specifically marketed as such, it is really really bad at filling gaps. CA glue is fantastic at holding together two flat surfaces with no gaps.

Interesting. The directions of the brands of glue I’ve used don’t make a mention of that. I’ll be sure to give it a try though! :)

Less cost and especially reducing environmental impact are noble goals, always. But what I’m reading between the lines is that, as racecars, they’ll be slower. And, uh...

Absolutely the right call.  Even though I want to scream at people that don’t acknowledge the seriousness of this...I know it won’t change anything.

Yup.  These assholes are just trying to make their statement and are just begging for someone to let them voice their shit opinion.

Yeah, there’s nothing to be gained by confronting them. They already have their mind made up, will give you shit for asking nicely and you may even get the gift of COVID-19 from it. Not worth the hassle
