Adorable? Clearly so! Just don’t make them angry. You wouldn’t like them when they’re angry ...

The Marvel continuity may have been a good idea back in the day, but IMHO it’s now a burden at best — just think of how many backflips Marvel’s forced to make in order to explain why its heroes never age, whether or not they were ever injected with the Super-Soldier serum. And let’s not forget that these same heroes…
… oh dear -- that’s what letting go of four generations’ worth of pent-up laughter will do to you ...
I got two problems with this idea:
Okay, strictly speaking he’s not a Stan Lee character — he was created by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby way back in 1941 — but since I haven’t seen him mentioned here, I’m gonna bring up Captain America. And at that, I’ll admit my love for this character really mostly stems from the Marvel Cinematic Universe and Chris…
Never mind, it’s getting more than a bit crazy. Also, for what it’s worth, she apologized.
Nah, can’t agree with you there. My point was that it is so damn hard to wrap your head around what things were like back — which mostly means how primitive stuff was — in 1918. By way of another geeky example, that tank Diana picks up like an empty cardboard box (‘cuz she’s WW)? Could barely get out of its own way.…
Trump’s being POTUS would contribute because just his being POTUS is bringing out the worst in people. But yah, if it sounds crazy then maybe I should go practice my mindfulness for awhile.
And he -- she? -- says that getting over molestation is a snap. I mean, come on! Surely it can’t be “a snap” to get over major trauma like that?
Exception to the rule … oh, you mean the one where celebrities “drop the liberal act”?
The kind of “Bible thumper” you refer to seems to be the kind who talks about the Old Testament more than the New, and desperately wants the Old to be literally true. From stuff I’ve learned lately, it seems to me they lean so hard on the Old Testament because they desperately want to be God’s new Chosen People -- His…
Who the hell is this Jarma anyway? “As a molestation survivor, I can attest that getting over it is a snap.” Like hell. I’m in my mid-fifties and I have yet to get over the bullying I experienced as a child and teen. Actual sexual molestation must be intolerably worse than that -- and this Jarma person says it’s a…
Ahhh, dammit. I just learned the other week that William Shatner, the former Captain Kirk, is now an alt-right mouthpiece. This was just after Leaving Neverland broke. Now Barbra has to weigh in with this frankly evil-sounding shit. I mean, what the hell?
For what it’s worth, people, DIAL BACK YOUR EXPECTATIONS. The Mueller Report may very well torpedo Donald Trump … but bear in mind that nobody really expected Trump to become POTUS back in 2016.
For what it’s worth … It’s ironic, but for me one thing that makes Gal Gadot, former Israeli combat instructor, so perfect as Wonder Woman is also what kind of furher ruins the DCEU she was meant to fix. Look at BvS (if you can bring yourself to) and Justice League, and I’ll bet you see that she’s the only Leaguer who…
How do you spell it -- Themyscira or Themyscira?
Hee hee. And then there’s the part where Thor, the most uber-macho of the MCU’s heroes, suddenly finds himself — shall we say, overmatched? — by a buck-ass naked Hulk. “ … now it’s … burned into my brain …” Hee hee hee.
This is gonna sound really nerdy of me when I lay it out, but for me one big problem with transplanting Wonder Woman’s origin story to World War I lay simply in the details.
Somebody has to ask it … does Donald Trump have a thing about strawberries?
Heh. Can dish it out, but can’t take it. Amirite?
