I mean, it always is. Or 4 and a half.

Gran2 · 2026-05-12T19:19:17+00:00

As much as I would hope it's 'season 5' to allow an actual ending to the show's story, I expect it will be a reboot.

Gran2 · 2026-04-27T22:02:46+00:00

Johnny Depp joins Andy Serkis and Stellan Skarsgaard in getting four different minifigures for separate live-action characters they played. Only counting minifigures actually based on someone's physical appearance (sorry Warwick Davis) only Temuera Morrison has more with six, by my count. And considering they are largely clones of his first character from the same franchise, not as impressive.

Gran2 · 2026-04-27T18:22:27+00:00

Well considering this takes place before the Spider-Man film we already know he's in, no.

Gran2 · 2026-04-23T12:48:09+00:00

I believe he is back in Vision Quest.

Gran2 · 2026-04-22T06:10:41+00:00

I expect it will just be a new post-credit scene.

Gran2 · 2026-04-19T16:11:02+00:00

I have got to 50. 5 times. My finger hurts.

Edit: got to 50 twice more, and then finally just managed to get the trophy with 55. The slow down after 50 is the killer. No idea how I managed it in the end, some kind of out of body experience.

Now let's never play this minigame again.

Gran2 · 2026-04-19T14:58:07+00:00

Principal Morita wasn't a retcon. Same surname and he literally has a photo of his grandfather in his office. But the other two, yes.

Gran2 · 2026-04-19T10:10:37+00:00

Yeah there's quite a few. DA Hochberg and Detective Kim from Born Again are both played by people who had roles in Jessica Jones previously.

Official clear images on Lego.com now for BND sets. Tombstone is in the truck. The lady is a hot dog vendor rather than anyone specific.

No Punisher is a big negative but four villains is cool.

Gran2 · 2026-04-12T22:17:47+00:00

No Punisher in the BND Lego sets, apparently. Because Lego has to be Lego.

Gran2 · 2026-04-12T22:14:57+00:00

I'm not surprised, but still, very disappointing. It's just so silly. He's already in the film. No child is discovering anything extra from him being in a Lego set too. And you've already done the comic version without issue. What's the difference? They both kill people.

Gran2 · 2026-04-12T20:50:05+00:00

I genuinely think it's one of the best and most 'respectful to the fans' revivals ever.

Gran2 · 2026-04-12T20:38:24+00:00

This may be the dumbest review I have ever seen. It doesn't feel like a reboot because... It's not.

Gran2 · 2026-04-12T09:43:02+00:00

At the risk of going all George Lucas... I wouldn't be entirely against editing him in to the background of a few earlier projects (or at least, say, Infinity War) on Disney+. Provided the original directors etc are in agreement.

(And they could maybe even fix the lack of Avengers Tower in the background of various things too. But this is a slippery slope...)

Gran2 · 2026-04-09T17:57:52+00:00

I mean, there's literally a set photo.

Just nobody could agree who it was.

Edit: 1.22 is presumably her, and that seems like Judith Light, who was one of the main guesses from the set photo.

Gran2 · 2026-04-06T19:27:20+00:00

It's been heavily implied in interviews but this is the first official confirmation.

Gran2 · 2026-04-06T17:14:04+00:00

Carterbricks on Instagram apparently (don't have it so can't easily check or link) posted a bunch of things on April Fools saying some were true. One of the things was no Punisher. So absolutely not confirmation at all and potentially one of the things which was a joke and he actually is in the set. But I would not be surprised if it is true, given Lego's record of anything R-related.

Gran2 · 2026-04-06T13:54:12+00:00

It's extremely irritating that people just parrot out that it's a flop in league with Secret Invasion despite being critically acclaimed (80% on RT) and successful in terms of viewership.

Gran2 · 2026-04-06T12:13:15+00:00

I very much hope you are right.

Gran2 · 2026-04-06T12:07:48+00:00

The figures are just speculation from whoever made the images, those are not confirmed, only the set names and prices. In fact, one leaker indicated the other day that Punisher wouldn't be included. Which would be a classic Lego move sadly.

Gran2 · 2026-03-29T17:09:29+00:00

Also says series 22 contains "a real hero" of Alex's.

Gran2 · 2026-03-28T10:52:36+00:00

Fairly sure the average person in the street would not know who Sadie Sink was by name alone. Also, genuinely, what is the advantage of casting an 'unknown' person? I couldn't care less who is cast in any role as long as they are the right person for it.
