Zemo and Walker on the Thunderbolts along with Abomination and let's just say Moonstone and Ghost. That would rule.

I'm not super into the lighter tone they're taking with Zemo or for that matter Bucky. This smirking jokey bad guy and comedically exasperated good guy poo poo is usually my jam but it just doesn't feel right with these characters. Also disappointed that we're already back to "Antifa is just as bad!" but that was pretty inevitable.

I generally dug the episode, between SWORD and Madripoor it’s interesting to see what Disney pulling out of that Fox buyout that isn’t explicitly mutant or F4 related. Zemo reading Machiavelli was cute but a little too on the nose.

Madripoor can be anything. It's Val Verde. That's the whole point.

He's being weird in a few threads, I'm not sure what's going on. Anyways, so I guess Wyatt Russel was getting death threats via social media so I guess the SW fans are caught up on the MCU now.

Rhyno posted:He's being weird in a few threads, I'm not sure what's going on. Parasocial relationships have existed in the MCU fandom for a while, remember the hate that Brie Larson has gotten for just being cast in the role? It's definitely picking up steam and expanding but it's an evolution of a toxicity that has definitely been there. Not to say this isn't the dumbest poo poo and people aren't trash though. Honestly when I heard about this, I immediately thought of Anna Gunn and the vitriolic hate she received for the crime of...reading a script and portraying a character who disapproved vehemently of the monster her husband was becoming.

Unless there's some dedicated US Agent fanbase out there who really wanted some other actor in the role of "Fake Cap for 4 and a half hours of TV", Russell getting death threats means that there are a bunch of people out there who think that he is just the new Cap now. Remember that whenever you're about to post "Why did they have to have the characters say out loud what was obvious?"

I keep saying that something has broken a huge number of peoples brains and they cannot tell fantasy from reality anymore. They think stuff in movies is real, and they can't seem to seperate actors from the characters they play.

They think stuff in movies is real, and they can't seem to seperate actors from the characters they play. Or they were always around but having the information and means to publicize their murderous thoughts or directly contact an actor was much more difficult before social media.

This type of thing has been going on for a long time. The people who play villains on soap operas have long been targeted with harassment. I remember reading an interview with an actor on Dawson’s creek who said they got threats for things their character did. Social media probably supercharged it since people can just sit around all day hurling abuse and threats directly at actors.

Now I'm reminded of a funny story when they were starting up the show/wrestling promotion Lucha Underground. Rather than get a wrestling personality to portray the man in charge, they instead got actor Luis Fernandez-Gil to play a character. So he made his debut at a AAA show in Mexico to hype up Lucha Underground and successfully pissed off the crowd. When he went backstage, he was wide-eyed and said one guy screamed something explicit involving his mother that I won't repeat here. The people backstage were like, "Wow, you're doing great!"
