WandaVision support! As the posters above me said, i liked the sitcom-spoof take and the actors seem to have fun with it. I also liked the gradual turn to the sinister. I hope they keep on doing that unexpected stuff. The more baffled i was as i took a short peak into the showthread and saw people making GBS threads all over it. I guess it helps enjoying the stuff as it is when you don't have too much background information (never read any comic, watched the movies on freetv once and honestly, most of them blend together in my head into one loud popcorn-explosion).

Love it or hate it, you gotta admit that WandaVision isn't "just another Marvel thing"

It’s been like twelve hours and I still can’t tell what you were actually going for. Were you advocating for just giving up? Saying humanity had a good run and we should all cark it? Say trying to make a vaccine is dumb and it’s game over?

MiddleOne posted:Anyone have anything good or bad to say about Mr. Mayor with Ted Danson? I literally just learned it exists at all. I watched the 7 episodes up on Hulu yesterday and it feels like a mix between 30 Rock and Parks&Rec. As someone who has watched both of those shows a million times over it feels incredibly comfortable and I can see it either lasting half a season or going for 7-9 years. The thing that sticks out to me the most is 72 year old Ted Danson having a 15 year old daughter, but that makes a little more sense when I remembered that it was originally pitched as a 30 Rock spin off with Jack as the mayor of NYC and his daughter would be around that age.

It's A Sin, Russell T Davies' new miniseries about a group of friends living during the AIDS crisis, is on HBO Max right now It's very good and powerful. I'd say even better than Years And Years

sticklefifer posted:I always felt like 3 had too much going on. They try to pack in far too many subplots at once and only partially succeed. One less villain or a more focused central plot would've done wonders for it, and randomly happening upon a kid with the perfect Iron Man Recovery Garage in the middle of nowhere is a bit too coincidental. IM3 was crippled by Perlmutter's incredibly late decision to not have the female interest be the baddie. The first 2 acts set up her as such, then she dies with a whimper, inexplicably

I'm not going to get into a discussion about the merits of the film or the movement or whatever.

The weirdest part of SnyderChat to me is that its been going for so long that its got its own language and frames of reference so every once and awhile I don't even know what people are talking about.

I mean, the Assembly Cut is still Alien 3. The Extended Editions are still Lord of the Rings. Unless you're doing a Ship of Theseus thing where you can't tell when exactly it becomes a different thing, it's just a different version of the same content.

Say Vincent Ward had filmed his Wooden Planet script and 3/4 of the way through, with photography done and VFX in the pipeline, was thrown off and Fincher came in with new shots, score, and FX. Both films do the "Ripley alone on a planet that is hostile to her, with knowledge that she will die due to a facehugger egg". Same film?
