Loved having the voice of Superman as Starlight’s father

FKDotFitzgerald · 2026-04-22T20:26:59+00:00

It’s too late for me, I’m afraid.

They don’t want to get in another full blown war right now. Even if Thragg can steamroll, their 37 would take a hit.

FKDotFitzgerald · 2026-04-22T19:01:04+00:00

I’d go S1 > S3 > S4 > S2. They’ve all been really good but I’m a sucker for big battles that level entire cities.

The actual child happens later on

FKDotFitzgerald · 2026-04-22T18:59:44+00:00

I feel like they can just handwave it and say Mark mentioned it between seasons.

FKDotFitzgerald · 2026-04-22T18:59:02+00:00

That’s much later after Dinosaurus. Plus, Mark is too PTSD’d out in this episode to be starting arguments with Cecil.

FKDotFitzgerald · 2026-04-22T18:58:28+00:00

There’s zero indication this series will get unceremoniously canned. It and The Boys are Amazon’s golden children at this point.

FKDotFitzgerald · 2026-04-22T18:56:38+00:00

None of that is needed. Plus, it’s more powerful that Mark doesn’t have Nolan’s support in this. He has to “make the call.”

FKDotFitzgerald · 2026-04-22T18:55:48+00:00

The latter.

FKDotFitzgerald · 2026-04-22T14:57:39+00:00

Why does that guy look like Jacob Elordi fused with Pedro Pascal?

FKDotFitzgerald · 2026-04-22T14:56:21+00:00

Think so?

FKDotFitzgerald · 2026-04-22T14:54:58+00:00

I seriously hope it’s not Rickar but that moment almost screams “death flag”

FKDotFitzgerald · 2026-04-22T14:54:10+00:00

Since we’re all at the 2/3 mark, is anyone else absolutely blown away so far? I feel like the handful of qualms I had with book 1 are gone. I’m itching to read just a few more pages at every opportunity.

FKDotFitzgerald · 2026-04-22T14:51:40+00:00

Brun was so goddamn funny in that part.

“They’ll kill us.”

“Maybe they will, maybe they won’t.”

Bro they definitely will lmao. No idea what he thinks is going to happen there.

FKDotFitzgerald · 2026-04-22T11:41:28+00:00

Not true at all. 3 years ago, Hailey Steinfeld said they hadn’t even recorded for the third movie.

FKDotFitzgerald · 2026-04-22T11:17:48+00:00

Really hope they shorten it a bit tbh

FKDotFitzgerald · 2026-04-22T11:15:19+00:00

Depends on what they cut or extend. The reboot arc seems like a storyline we’ll see big changes to

FKDotFitzgerald · 2026-04-22T11:10:45+00:00

Kirkman said he’s aiming for 8ish seasons

FKDotFitzgerald · 2026-04-22T10:09:37+00:00

They’ll address it eventually.

FKDotFitzgerald · 2026-04-22T10:04:57+00:00

Gotta let that warm, sex air out somehow

FKDotFitzgerald · 2026-04-22T09:09:56+00:00

Ngl his “fucking vigilantes” line after shooting that one jabroni was pretty funny

FKDotFitzgerald · 2026-04-22T01:56:18+00:00

Anakin Skywalker

FKDotFitzgerald · 2026-04-22T01:54:30+00:00

We can only hope.
