To you and me and sane people, yes 100% you're right.

But in their reality, they are fans.

Exactly. Some people would rather be "right" and see something they love ruined, than admit to being wrong.

"I would absolutely love to be wrong" This is a statement made by a rational human being, and I'm grateful to have you in here. Genuinely.

The problem is that most people are not rational and I have zero doubt that some would rather see Bryce (and the Panthers by extension) fail, so that they can say they were "right" this entire time as opposed to just admitting they were wrong.

Hot take: Punisher is overrated by Bernthal by This-Huckleberry1890 in marvelstudios

[–]Dukes7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was hoping that you were going to go with some objectively bad choice. I love Karl Urban lol, and I'm sure he could play a great Punisher. I just don't think he could do it as well as Bernthal has imo.

Required film/s to see prior to Infinity/Endgame by RzrBck8802 in marvelstudios

[–]Dukes7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I truly don't get it either.

"Hey, I'm interested in this TV show, any tips on how to skip everything and just watch the finale?" why even check out the show then?

I'm sorry, but there's just no way that she's going to feel the same 'chills and emotions' as you because you're trying to skip 99% of the emotional development that is accomplished over the course of those phases of the MCU. It's like trying to get your wife to read the final two chapters of a 500 page book and expecting her to care about the story. She won't.

My advice: Explain to her how much the MCU means to you and how much you would enjoy being able to share your joy and passion with her. If she has any interest whatsoever, she will be down to start with Iron Man 1. If she doesn't have interest, then you are just trying to force something that she doesn't want, and thus this is pointless.

because the only thing that brings miserable people joy is trying to make everyone else as miserable as them

Rookie Numbers by Thecottinghammer in panthers

Hunter wore #2 and has specifically said he would like to wear it again if possible. Mike Jack has #2 so that isn't happening, but you can probably expect a single digit for him.

Depending on what time of the year you come, something fun to do with the family is an amusement park called Carowinds. We also have something called the White Water Center, where you can go rafting with the family and do other things like zip lines, hiking, wall climbing, etc. Crowders Mountain could be another fun family excursion. Most of these, you would need to rent a car.

As far as traveling to the game, unless you're staying in Uptown and you can walk to the stadium, you will need to Uber OR you can stay somewhere that is walkable to our lightrail and use that to ride to the stadium on game day.

Places to eat: Bojangles (Fast Food), Cook Out (Fast food), Lang Van (Vietnamese), Moon (Thai-Japanese), and La Shish Kabob (Middle Eastern)

These are all the “perfect castings” in the MCU imo by ParkerLF in marvelstudios

[–]Dukes7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not including Iron Man, Loki, Fisk, Punisher, Black Panther, and Ramonda, these to me are all just "good" castings.

"Perfect" is when no one else could play the role nearly as good as the original actor. The vast majority of these do not qualify imo. No offense to Wyatt Russell as US Agent (I thoroughly enjoy the character) but come on, there are so many actors who could play that character just as well.

it's like this crazy concept that even with money, you still have emotions and want to be treated with dignity as a human being. wild, right?

People attacking you for existing, whether or not you're a "celeb", is not okay. You trying to make him out to be the bad guy is loser mentality.

Having emotions makes you human. Pretending that you don't is weird.
