Also, who’s this little guy behind the hook horror?

Pretty sure this is actual art that denotes fantasy and adventure...

Oh yeah, that sounds right. Forgot that bit. I've been playing a Barbarian/Druid for a couple of years now (although we didn't switch this campaign to 5E24). I think I've always cast my spells before going into a rage, personally, because when raging I don't think my character would be making...

You choose to prolong the rage each round. So basically you can just choose to not extend your rage for the next turn. In effect, it means you no longer have to use a bonus action to end it. (This is from memory, I don't have the book in front of me at the moment)

There are plenty of old book covers with characters posing that no one complained about. Personally, I think people just prefer the way oil paintings look.

Vanessa Kirby says with her performance that she was planting seeds for the possibility of doing the Malice storyline at some point in the future.

That’s fair, and for sure they trimmed the film down to get it under 2 hours. I just didn’t mind the focus.

The irony being, it’s the same fate. It’s why the scene with him spinning the car for the kids is both heartwarming and...

I agree with Micah, a single movie isn’t ideal for a soap compared to a serialised format. The movie still has a lot of the plot centre around a married couple dealing with a pregnancy and the birth of their first child, which feels more soap than superhero to me.

They are in an isolated bubble. That's the point. They're disconnected from the world they protect. That is the depth. We're shown this through both Johnny and Ben and they're interactions with people outside their circle. Johnny looks uncomfortable when Sue teases him about dating, because he...

I just want to make another post about the production design. I loved all the detail and (alternate) world building. Those silver vinyl records looked so good! This is also the first movie I can remember in a long time where I would have liked to have seen it on IMAX for Galactus.

Oops, hit the wrong button before replying... Ragnarock had more characters, yeah, so did Love and Thunder. Fantastic 4, Galactus, Silver Surfer, Moleman and Franklin felt like enough characters to tell a story for me. The number of characters has nothing to do with how good a film is...
