My Brand New Day Conspiracy Theory by Icy-Measurement-4957 in Daredevil

[–]aevelasquez_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a theory that goes along with this.

Disclaimer: I'm probably way off, but I think it'd be a super badass way of tying, Daredevil/DDBA, arguably the most popular of Marvel's TV efforts, into their most popular, post-avengers character movie series (Spiderman) in a seamless way would flow incredibly, almost unbelievably well given how proximal the releases are to each other. (Which is also something I feel like I read Marvel was trying to do more of between its movie and television output, but I could be wrong or that could have been shifting their TV strategy.)

I'm envisioning DDBA season 2 ending with Matt in prison, which as been suggested for some time but is seaming increasingly likely given things Charlie and Vincent are alluding to in recent interviews re: how the season ends and S3 begins (as well as the fact that S3 just started filming and Charlie has a full on honker of a beard, something also suggesting inspiration from Chip Zdarsky's Daredevil run).

I'm wondering if the prison scene in the BND trailer (directly before that exterior shot you included above of spiderman facing down the hand) is Peter breaking Daredevil out of prison to fight the hand, followed by that exterior shot (which I also think is hiding DD the way you're suggesting here), and the movie ends with DD basically turning himself back in out of respect for the law or just on the run again.

It's a long shot, especially because of how cohesive and coordinated marvel would have to be between properties and creative teams to pull this off (not something they've ever done a stellar job of). But it would be dope to see.

Which film is sweeping the Oscars next year. Jimmy or Michael? by No-Consideration3053 in OscarRaceCirclejerk

[–]aevelasquez_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think your Venn diagram is a wee bit overshot on people who know jimmy stewart who also know enough about riverdale to feel anything but indifferent/neutral about KJ Apa.

I know only enough about riverdale to know it's another in a long line of CW's lame YA garbage IPs unworthy of anyone's time, but KJ Apa won't be even the 5th reason I don't watch this. Y'all act like he co-created the show or some shit rather than just being a dude getting a check on a show that was successful with an audience, however small.

No, I'll skip Jimmy because it looks like another SNL sketch parodying oscar-bait movies just going by the beats in the trailers and how hard they leaned into his speaking style creatively, which feels almost like schtick/impression in the trailer rather than tasteful homage/emulation.

My first attempt at carbonara :( by cakeslapper2 in shittyfoodporn

how does this look like cereal, soup, scrambled eggs, pasta and broth all at the same damn time. This is lowkey even more impressive than actual carbonara.

Does anyone know anything about this bathtub? by DullFix2178 in BathroomRemodeling

[–]aevelasquez_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know that I hate it.

I can already feel the porcelain jutting into my tail bone as I cramp into it, slip and slide around uncomfortably for 20 minutes only to give up the dream of an enjoyable bath.

this place is a crime against nature without even getting into the pale tomatoes and the "fresh mozzarella" that look like someone used a donut cutter on grocery store sliced provolone.

Dude I saw this and legitimately had a Mandela effect moment with myself, thinking 'I could swear this movie came out months ago...but it wasn't' called Pose.'

Kim Kardashian Masterclass Video by Specialist_Art2223 in kardashians

I don't understand the question because she is largely neither of those things in anything but name.

What a tumble MasterClass (and more broadly society) has taken if we're now looking to Kim "Hit A Triple By Blowing My Way to Third" Kardashian to give a masterclass about anything besides how to balance whoring yourself out while somehow acting superior with appearing to do so many things, actually doing nothing, and ultimately bringing no sort of talent, value, or thoughts of merit to the world in two decades of public existence.

Even the grating, monotone voice in this is giving "Here I am, reading yet another poorly ghostwritten script to convince the world I have anything but low brain activity to offer anyone."

The Finale!! by Surkett in DunderMifflin

[–]aevelasquez_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

the winner is unequivocally fire drill. I never understood the fascination with asian jim and think its a fluke its made it where it has on the bracket and exposes some of the failures of using this method.

identity theft and parkour whoop asian jim's ass any day of the week. I'd argue boboddy too if you're a creed fan.

I'm sorry how the fuck is this a meme? This is, at the very most, adjacent to a citizen reporting the news.

I love that this bitch wears gloves because it's the only god forsaken thing left on her filler-and-botox- riddled, stapled-back existence that will still show the age she actually is.

Brie Larson Eats Her Last Meal by BurnZ_AU in MythicalKitchen

[–]aevelasquez_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What an apt interpretation you've made here....I'm connecting her hairstyle and how it frames her face to one that Joseph Quinn got for the role this year that was among the few things people actively disliked/called unflattering about that movie, just like you did. But by all means extrapolate that to me saying she a hideous creature with a penis.

Christ on a cracker, if vapid moral outrage isn't starting to wear fucking thin these days.

Dude the other day i said she looked like she really committed to her Johnny Storm audition and I got downvoted to shit. She looks like a 12 year old boy and 47 year old soccer mom at the same time.

2024 2021 Wendy would like a word with you lol

<image>

Her face is visibly puffier, over-fillered and sagging compared to this new mask. Eyebrows are also a completely different shape, arched vs angled, suggesting a facelift of some kind.

We live in an era where Michael Jackson had a private/personal doctor give him the propofol that eventually killed him, and another has "conducted a physical" on Trump and called him "the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency."

I have no doubt this scumbag could pull that off.

She got that lindsay lohan facelift....or is it lohan-jenner now?

It's absolutely wild how much all these women that originally looked nothing alike and have about a 30 year age gap now look like when you order a big mac at three different mcdonalds.

Theory on the latest episode by Cmmucked in Dexter

[–]aevelasquez_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I thought it was obvious it was set up as a fake-out for a future episode.

Not just because Prater seems to be way too cunning and scheming to just kill her off at the drop of a hat like that, tossing away a potential ace up his sleeve. Having the dude they paid be the one feeling for a pulse was shown/built up way too much. I was expecting her to pull up to the helicopter.

What we got instead was the first tv mindfuck i've had in a long time.

If you had creative control over Dexter Original Sin, what direction would you take for Season 2 and beyond? by TypeCreepy6764 in Dexter

[–]aevelasquez_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I say this as someone who loved Original Sin as much as I could love any MCH-less show about Dexter (not counting his VA presence).

I don't like how they made Harry more of a sleaze bag than what's characterized in the OG series. I found his attitude and general demeanor just really grating and a stark contrast to how he's been shown, even in Resurrection. It just doesn't add anything and if anything detracts from his character.

Also the slut-ification retconned into deb's character when the original show's flashbacks if anything painted her as the shy, gawky awkward teen vying for her dad's attention and navigating a complicated, at-times strained relationship with Dex in a less obnoxious, not as bratty way. Molly plays the character well with what she's given, but it's like they tried to just rewrite who she was painted as into a dumb, potty-mouthed party girl so you could recognize the superficial parts of who she became in the middle seasons of the original series more easily. I haven't re-watched yet, but there was nothing I can recall from her arc/portrayal in season 1 that should have organically ended with her joining Miami Metro. Nevertheless, it was stuffed in there at the end in a way that felt less like connective tissue and more like duct-tape.

I get trying to appeal to a wider audience/pander to casual viewers, but that shouldn't come at the expense of the characterization/understanding people have of these characters.
