I’ve been of the opinion for a while that - assuming nothing else was an obstacle - if Joss can’t/won’t find time to do more FIREFLY, he should just turn it over to Minear. And part of me has wondered - since Minear was such a big part of the show - if there were hurt feelings that he wasn’t a part of SERENITY. I…

Sheppard AND Anthony Stewart Head, please.

Source for “demanding blowjobs,” please? If all you have is the ex-wife’s essay, than that’s quite a leap.

Isn’t Minear showrunning Fox’s 9-1-1? It’s pretty good.

As I wrote, I don’t believe the parallels are truly Lee’s, but Claremont’s. And by the time Claremont was writing Magneto he was more of an anti-hero than true villain. The parallel *really* only went as far as how does an oppressed race (Black/mutant) respond to bigotry - turn the other cheek vs “by any means…

There was a very similar bit in a Priest story during the Morrison JLA era:

Yeah, the “Xavier-as-MLK/Magneto-as-Malcolm” thing was really more Claremont’s, although in his dotage Stan has claimed it for himself in interviews. (Much as Kirby would occasionally cite the incident of an adrenalized woman lifting a car off her kid - depicted in the INCREDIBLE HULK tv show - as his inspiration for…

With access to a time machine, 23-year-old Angela Bassett would have been great. At 41 in 1999 - “not cracking” notwithstanding - the truly terrific Ms. Bassett had simply aged out of the part.

(apologies for using “ironically” twice - I can’t seem to edit the post now)

Also, the language in the film implied to me that Luke SAW Ben turn evil in a vision. Not that Luke was *worried* Ben could be evil, but that he forsaw it happening just as he saw Han and Leia’s pain in Cloud City. In the final flashback in LAST JEDI, Luke is hearing lightsabers clashing and people screaming in his…

Clothes hangers: backwards question mark if it’s freshly-laundered, forward question mark if it’s been worn once but is still clean enough for a re-wear.

White guy with no kids so I have no vested interest in this. But isn’t there - potentially at least - some value in an idea like this? If it’s only homerooms that are organized this way and the students are being fully integrated in the (according to the article) other 70% of their school day, and all classes are…

I agree. The changes to Tulip’s (and, to a lesser extent) Jesse’s backstories are irksome.

Fifteen years ago, Robert O’Reilly (Gowron on STAR TREK) after a trip to the gym as Jody. Clint Howard as TC. And then Tim Olyphant could have been Jesse.

Finally finished this last night. I delayed really getting underway on the show because (a) I’ve been busy and (b) I found the first episode’s “retirement” both wrongheaded and boring.

To be fair, she gets two or three of them most nights. . .

I loved this show like you wouldn’t believe at the start, but the long break between seasons and a stretch (that felt like forever) where Brock was out of the Venture house really killed my enthusiasm. I’d like to think I’ll get back to it someday, but I can’t even remember where I left off.

Huge laugh/cheer in my NYC theater at “QUEENS.” The nerds knew Spidey was coming; the civilians just laughed at such a mundane location getting the same treatment as the Bondian global hotspots.
