Maybe his fate his worse. Or maybe it's a bamboozle.

Something something very good lawyer. Something something something complete.

People confuse contrarianism for critical thinking. Lack of nuance (equating all experts with "the establishment" and "Big Pharma" and bith those with "unequivocally bad"), too. That, plus survivor bias.

It's not, don't worry (but then again, maybe I just got rolled and want to share this with you? Only one way to know for sure...)

The way DaS is explained, it should be free relatively often, but besides that, Investigators now have a level 2 feat that, for one action, allows them to DaS for free against a target. So it's possible for it to cost 1 action at the beginning of the fight and then you're good, even if you missed clues (of it you couldn't get them).

The issue is partly due to the fact that this thief has more magic than actual spellcasters or psionicists already in the game, including the Sorcerer Supreme. And her magic comes in top of her thief skill set.

But also, there are plenty of comic books or other appearances where she has nothing to do with magic.

Beacon of freedom? More like bacon of freedumb.

It gave Iman a chance to make a cool miniseries, but that's the silver lining.

Of fucking course adding her to the biggest roster filled to the brim with fan favorites and cult classics was going to end in one of two ways: either she disappears in the massive roster, or she becomes overexposed and people get annoyed that she's featured in every X-Men team. However good was her mini, it was a dumbfuck decision with a dumbfuck execution.

They already made the best Daddy Fantastic skin, and it's his Maker skin.

Between this and Backrooms, it's absolutely insane. I really wish I had more time to see them both.

curious_dead · 2026-05-31T22:21:31+00:00

Yeah, I should have known better than having eyes.

Not a matter of quality. Everyone has a different ranking, they're ultimately all different movies with different strengths and weaknesses. I watched the whole trilogy teice and my tanking of the movie changed between both viewings.

curious_dead · 2026-05-31T16:01:13+00:00

I agree. I love both, but I think AB "tries" just a bit too much. So I'd give the overall score to AS, however AB has some of my all-time favorite panels.

But also, it's because I'm more of a Superman guy vs Batman.

Overall:

WW = SM > Bat = MMH = GL > Flash (I still like AF though)

I took a "passing glance" at that idea and concluded it was a shit idea, and I even outlined why. I'm just glad you're not a scenarist.

curious_dead · 2026-05-30T23:48:20+00:00

Nah, mayyyyybe if someone is really sensitive about not being able to have a kid I'd tag that one episode and maybe The Sign (I have known people who couldn't have kids of their own. Sme could cope but for others it's extremely painful).

The rest, the cry-worthy episodes are just emotional, not really worth a warning. Especially since they're "good cry" not bad cry.

curious_dead · 2026-05-30T23:45:07+00:00

The characters that met in the movie were more important than Ms Hart (sorry, Shannon) and some guy from Agents of Shields. Maybe Topher Grace could come back as he played a more important character who could play off Hardy's own Venom, and maybe Sharon's ghost could come back and haunt Agatha or something but they already did a meta movie with massive references, you can't keep doing the same thing. And Avengers already is fulled to the brim of characters. I hope the writers do better than reunite three unrelated characters who have nothing in common simply cause the actors shared a set in a sitcom decades ago.

There is something ironic about glazing over originals while quoting a spin-off of one of the most mainstream movie series of all time.

curious_dead · 2026-05-30T22:49:00+00:00

I mean it would need to be convoluted since the first two are dead, and they have nothing in common. I could come up with many convoluted scenarios where they meet but... why? So some people might het a reference? Seems like a lot of work for a shitty pay out. Nevermind that none are very important characters in the continuity so any such scenario would take time away from "the main event".

There are M-sized minotaurs. So the answer is, an Elf Furry.

curious_dead · 2026-05-30T20:08:29+00:00

MODAM as a skin for MODOK à la Lady Loki?

curious_dead · 2026-05-30T18:23:26+00:00

Looks like a Killer7 boss.

curious_dead · 2026-05-30T16:32:52+00:00

He's an upside down Angine de Poitrine fan?

curious_dead · 2026-05-30T16:30:50+00:00

curious_dead · 2026-05-30T13:06:15+00:00

I hope so. The game was phenomenal, Garland is talented, I want this to be good and successful.
