    What If...?

    Another sad episode. Plenty to nitpick. Zombeye's good bow arm should have rotted off by the time he got from San Francisco to NYC It's pretty far fetched that he and ZombCap happened to wander from the west coast to the east coast. That's a long hike for random shambling. Maybe strange...

    What If...?

    except that we know that if we break Strange's hands, he will become Dr. Strange as well. The reason we (some of us) the audience are balking at the Absolute Point claim is because we KNOW it can be done differently.

    A History of Spoilers and their Relevance to Today

    It seems improbable that somebody who likes to figure out the movie mystery (a whodunnit with actual clues) would enjoy having that first time experience spoiled. The science could also be tripping up on causation. People with anxiety (like everybody during Covid) find some comfort in watching...

    Marvel would have shot alternate footage that never happened that way... Vader: You kissed your sister! Luke: Nooooo! It's not true!

    A History of Spoilers and their Relevance to Today

    In some ways, this doesn't account for technological connectedness increasing along with the concept of spoilerage. Once upon a time, you could only spoil a story if you were personally in the presence of somebody else who was reading it. That's a limited reach. Usenet only reached fellow...

    Star Trek Prodigy Main Title

    I don't know what the fuss is about not going in a straight line. It's being flown by kids. What the heck do you expect?

    What If...?

    As noted, a dark episode What caught my ear was Strange's talk with The Watcher. the way he talked about time, and how you can't change time, etc runs counter to what the TVA had been doing for a very long time.

    The Witcher - Nightmare of the Wolf

    survival of the dumb luckiest? Just as dumb, kid picks up pointy stick, uses it, then tosses it away like it's a single use tool. The first ten seconds in scary swamp should have been get a rock or stick ready for when the trouble comes.

    The only time they interconnect is when Uatu brings them together for a Hyundai commercial to fight zombies.

    What If...?

    I think what also messed up my thinking was how long deLoking the planet would take. Hydra might find itself very irrelevant when its members see how crappy it is to be human under Loki's rule.

    What If...?

    because I'm bad at numbers. I meant 2 & 3. Obviously #1 happened. Though in hindsight, #2 might could happen, just without Natasha. #3 has no Tony to argue with, and no Avengers 2 to cause argument with Tony.

    Spiderman No Way Home Trailer

    it struck me as a sight gag. Something's gone odd. Wong is dressed and pulling luggage like he's set to go on vacation, or at least escape the cold. The fact that nobody talks about "why is the house full of snow" builds on the joke.

    What If...?

    I think the 3rd episode was my favorite thus far. I liked how they went back to the 1st MCU hulk movie. That's a movie it seems Marvel hoped folks would forget. Loki appears to have hit a home run finally. Though I don't understand his fascination with subjugating humans or why he'd think...

    What If...?

    Ya know I was just summarizing the snippet we saw of Peter with a mop, right? Because symbolically, having that job is considered bottom of the rung. Shorthand.

    What If...?

    Been there myself. I'm sure the writers didn't intend that. But it is a side effect of the choices they made that mean something to somebody.

    What If...?

    actually, per the trailer, the instigating factor for the Eternals to do something now (and have the movie) was the 2nd Snap that brought folks back which in turn agitated the Deviants they were there for. No snapping, no trigger. So yes, they could weasel that Ego did something instead. But I...
