    What do you think of Marvel post-Endgame?

    I read a review of Multiverse of Madness on some comic site (Bleeding Cool?) where the writer saw it right when it first came out and when leaving the theater he overheard people being confused by Wanda having kids. The kids never appeared in the movies and the movie goers, apparently, didn't...

    What do you think of Marvel post-Endgame?

    It's all subjective. I enjoyed the movie, other than Taskmaster, which was a wasted opportunity of a really cool character. I personally am glad we didn't get any interconnected bits because I wish Marvel would back off of that a bit. Why would there have been any cameos (awesome or not)? The...

    What do you think of Marvel post-Endgame?

    Obviously the younger generation, whipper-snappers I believe is the correct term, need to bone up on older movies. ;)

    Star Trek Strange New Worlds, what did you think?

    If I remember correctly, the showrunner changed for season four and so did the feel of the show. Season four has some really good episodes (to be honest, I think there were a lot of good episodes of Enterprise aside from the temporal cold war stuff).

    What do you think of Marvel post-Endgame?

    I have to wonder how Anson Mount reacted when he got the call to play Black Bolt again. The Inhumans TV show was universally panned and I imagine he never thought he would play that character again.

    What do you think of Marvel post-Endgame?

    This was my least favorite until Iron Man 3

    What do you think of Marvel post-Endgame?

    Honestly, I don't think it is. I only have it because it's included in my cellular plan. If I didn't have it I would just wait until the DVDs/Blu-ray were released for the shows I want and get them from my local library or buy them if I want them long term. Honestly, the more I think about it...

    The Orville vs ST: Brave New Worlds (Poll)

    I would say no, DISCO was a dud for three seasons (after which I gave up on it) with the SNW cast being the only light in the very dark tunnel of season two.

    What do you think of Marvel post-Endgame?

    Captain Marvel seems to get a lot of criticism, and some seems undeserved. Some of it I get, people like what they like and tastes vary. Some of it seemed to come from people with a political/social agenda even before seeing the movie. I personally enjoyed it but am willing to admit it could...

    Ms Marvel (spoilers)

    This was interesting. I am fully aware that the European powers really messed up the geopolitics of the Middle East when they drew a bunch of artificial borders in the area, leading to (in part) some of the problems in that part of the world. However, I wasn't as aware of the partitioning of...

    Star Trek Strange New Worlds, what did you think?

    Well, Trek has always been a bit wonky when it comes to canon. It really only gets paid attention to when it serves the plot. Remember when warp drive was causing subspace rifts in the TNG episode Force of Nature so the Federation instituted a rule that the maximum speed a starship could use was...

    Star Trek Strange New Worlds, what did you think?

    Just watched episode nine....DAMN! I don't have many complaints about this show but this episode reinforced my dislike of M'Benga. His remark about being "jumpy" seemed out of place. The worst thing about him is that I frequently can't understand him, the constant whisper acting is driving me...

    What do you think of Marvel post-Endgame?

    This is something I am generally ok with. Phase 1 didn't really start setting up the Thanos storyline until the last movie of the phase, Avengers, and we didn't even see Thanos until the very end. Between Loki, Spider-Man & Doctor Strange the groundwork for Kang and some big multiversal event is...

    The Orville vs ST: Brave New Worlds (Poll)

    I really enjoy both shows and prior to Strange New Worlds, The Orville was the best Star Trek on TV. Seth MacFarlane has done a great job giving us a show with a TNG vibe. For those of us who aren't fans of Discovery, The Orville scratched that Star Trek itch and early on those were the only two...

    What do you think of Marvel post-Endgame?

    Just because COVID wasn't a factor for some productions (and you are probably downplaying that a bit) it doesn't mean it wasn't a factor for others. Both can be true at the same time. Just like some restaurants survived the pandemic and others didn't, situations vary and painting every...

    What do you think of Marvel post-Endgame?

    I think this is part of the problem with people's expectations. Why are we comparing the current crop of MCU movies to the best of phase 1? If that's the bar then very few will hit it. Iron Man was great and while there have been some movies that hit that bar it still stands as one of the best...

    What do you think of Marvel post-Endgame?

    I've enjoyed each of the post-Endgame movies with the Spider-Man ones being the best. Black Widow really good but could have been better, Taskmaster was wasted. All were fun though, like most Marvel movies. Eternals was the weakest (It should have been a Disney+ show, just too much going on to...

    Ms Marvel (spoilers)

    I'm with you on that. I expressed disinterest in the show in another, earlier thread because it looked like a Nickelodeon show to me and got dogpiled on but I'm glad I watched it because the show has been a delight.

    The boys season 3 spoilers

    At this point I think Ashley will be lucky if she doesn't end up committed for her own safety. The bits where she freaks out and pulls out her own hair are terrifying.
