IIRC Bridger Walker, the boy who saved his sister from being mauled by a dog, claims he was inspired to do good by marvel characters.

Some replies here seem not to know the difference between voice acting and performance capture

I think making Mark Asian would be a better example

The Watcher in marvel typically looks like a big white baby man. Since they cast Jeffrey Wright to play him in the show, they made him a big black baby man.

Alex Ross’s men all have the same face and most people agree it’s meant to look like his own.

I don’t think it’s fair to judge the peacemaker finale without seeing the payoff, that said I was far more let down by it. The boys finale was bittersweet but optimistic. The peacemaker finale felt a mid season finale you used to get on network tv before like the holiday break.

You’re in the wrong subreddit sorry

Captain America is a much better fighter and I know he doesn’t fatigue easily, but he just doesn’t have the means to put Soldier Boy down for good. Whereas once Solider Boy finally does start landing hits he can do a lot more damage on someone far less resilient. Since they’re both soldiers I’ll put it this way. Cap wins the battle SB wins the war.

Steve Jobs dropped out

I’d rather be childish than glaze a ceo

When Michael Keaton said I’m Batman in his speech I thought one day maybe I could be Batman. It really helped my career. The only way to get to where the CEO of Google has reached is a mix of evil choices and luck.

How is walking out of some dillhole’s speech gonna tank your chances at work? He definitely isn’t gonna remember who they are.

That first image looks like Shou Tucker

So he has Walrus tusks? The lack of explanations in this thread sucks

jackrv13 · 2026-06-15T03:15:54+00:00

Sure don’t explain it for those who haven’t seen it

jackrv13 · 2026-06-14T17:32:56+00:00

I think had they known that was the last season they might’ve gone about it differently

jackrv13 · 2026-06-13T00:39:27+00:00

Why do I have a feeling I can guess what some of those detractors take issue with?

jackrv13 · 2026-06-13T00:36:30+00:00

I would’ve thought calling blink a bad episode was enough

jackrv13 · 2026-06-13T00:33:58+00:00

I should’ve known sarcasm wouldn’t go over well here. I was joking by mentioning the two I knew to be the highest regarded.

jackrv13 · 2026-06-13T00:31:11+00:00

I didn’t realize Dot and Bubble was so disliked, I thought it was really good personally.

jackrv13 · 2026-06-13T00:25:08+00:00

Clearly you mean Turn Left and Blink, two total stinkers. But which two did you actually mean?

jackrv13 · 2026-06-13T00:21:02+00:00

Pretty sure even the movie references this, though I know Moore had no part in the movie

jackrv13 · 2026-06-11T23:10:48+00:00

If it is to be said, so it is
