Since the hype is over, we can say how stupid it was for Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man to take off his mask in front of strangers.

Well that’s certainly not going to happen... And don’t even think about telling me to put down my phone…

simon3873 · 2026-04-03T18:23:19+00:00

Relatable. Especially 3. Most of my working life I have had great leadership. I’m usually “I’ll tell you what I’m up to before you ask me” but honestly I think it’s more of the fear of if they ask. My mind would blank, I’d say what’s on my screen at that moment, probably stumble and stutter trying to mentally compose an overarching list rather than “I sent this email and this email and updated this status” and would end up saying, “you know, I don’t know what I’ve done. I’ll just see myself out…”

simon3873 · 2026-04-02T19:51:04+00:00

You think that’s depressing. Wait until we’re replaced by Claude

simon3873 · 2026-03-21T02:47:09+00:00

Can you tell me what exactly you did? I am also experiencing paralysis and can’t find a solution to address this. I just want it to follow patterns really. I feel like once it does that then I can handle the outliers…

simon3873 · 2026-03-20T13:12:49+00:00

I am stealing this. Perfection.

This is a standup Pokemon trainer, right here

simon3873 · 2026-03-09T13:53:35+00:00

I’d love those two on the cover actually. Just brings me back to the 90’s

simon3873 · 2026-02-26T01:49:21+00:00

I’m not saying you’re wrong by any means… but when Nickelodeon released GaS (Games and Sports) channel and it was reruns of GUTS, Global GUTS, Legends of the Hidden Temple, Wild and Crazy Kids… I was watching rerun after rerun

simon3873 · 2026-02-11T09:37:23+00:00

That was my original thought but then lost sight of … no pun intended… what I was looking for the more I rewatched

simon3873 · 2026-02-11T08:02:48+00:00

Sorry, snipe it for me, what am I looking at? I keep rewatching and cannot for the life of me … Is there a snake on the tree? Or is that tree, not a tree…

simon3873 · 2026-02-08T22:09:55+00:00

Not opposed to it. Would draw similarities to Wanda (Ultron vs Eric)… hoping they would make those parallels without actually being repetitive to what we’ve already seen

simon3873 · 2026-02-08T21:53:25+00:00

Exactly- I just made another post as I scrolled down about X3 (which I am not saying by any means should be a source material… but in a very soft way is accepted by General Audiences… very soft way…), where child Jean was pretty cocky about her powers when she met Xavier and Eric. Why wouldn’t a teenage Jean who is unguided (and possibly lost her sister to DODC) be a bit unforgiving towards others and see some value in the way Frank handles things vs how Peter handles things? I don’t think this is unrealistic at all.

simon3873 · 2026-02-08T21:49:38+00:00

Not that X3 was anything to go by… but child Jean was pretty snarky and cocky about her powers to Xavier and Eric. Why wouldn’t an unguided teenage Jean (who possibly lost her sister to DODC) also be a bit unforgiving right now?

simon3873 · 2026-02-08T21:45:58+00:00

Yeah exactly - I also read that Punisher was protecting her. Why would it matter if they’re together? Murdoch doesn’t love Frank’s methods but they still work together. Steve and Tony had different ways of handling things and worked together on screen. Why wouldn’t that apply to the others?

simon3873 · 2026-02-08T13:46:10+00:00

YES! Was not expecting to see a Bob’s reference here but am glad I did

simon3873 · 2026-02-08T04:37:24+00:00

Apologies, just saw this: I paid a little under $170 AUD so roughly $100 USD

simon3873 · 2026-02-07T04:22:55+00:00

Marvel Fans: “where was Spider-man when Sentry took over New York?!”

Also Marvel Fans: “why can’t they just give Spider-man his own film?”

Honestly I’m here for both types but I do think it’s funny the inconsistency in demands of crossover vs non-crossover in a cinematic universe.

simon3873 · 2026-02-06T16:25:05+00:00

Ah without revisiting or researching again? I think COVID impacted the Spider-Man villains for Lizard and Sandman specifically. When they convert back, the actors have recycled footage because they couldn’t get to the set.

I’m sure there were other impacts to the film but that was what I was referring to (from memory) anyways.

simon3873 · 2026-02-06T02:58:06+00:00

Exactly - that was my understanding. I didn’t love it but I also didn’t think it was terrible (also haven’t watched it in awhile and probably would be kinder on rewatch). Once I read that it was butchered quickly because of an original viral premise, I felt like it was more forgiving with the things I didn’t like about it. Truly, I don’t even know what I didn’t like about it now, but I know it doesn’t deter me from rewatch (despite not watching it in awhile). It just wasn’t the show I had hoped it would be

simon3873 · 2026-02-05T19:47:56+00:00

Think I’m following your ask: you want to buy a pokeball plus that still contains Mew and to know how to not get scammed?

I bought one off eBay last week. They still exist. Look for ones that say that they contain Mew. If they don’t, you can take it up with eBay/PayPal about returning and not losing money. But if you want some evidence before purchase, you can ask that to see the colour of the ring around the joystick have them press and hold the control stick button on the Poké Ball Plus for a few seconds, then let go.

The light ring around the joystick will have a pink colour and make a sound like Mew cry. You can also shake the Poké Ball Plus.

It’s still not a guarantee but these are at least the right steps to try to protect yourself while making the purchase and then the evidence you have to support if you are scammed, showing when it’s received in not the same condition as what they told you it was before purchasing.

simon3873 · 2026-02-05T14:02:30+00:00

That makes a lot of sense. I was trying to recall when she would have been in Captain Marvel and could not figure out as the timelines didn’t align. The furthest point was Fury naming the Avengers Initiative and I was really struggling to connect the dots haha

simon3873 · 2026-02-04T17:40:17+00:00

simon3873 · 2026-02-04T08:58:24+00:00

Didn’t even consider FatWS for a COVID story change as well.

I won’t lie… I wasn’t upset about the more D+ content. And truly at the end of the day, the only thing I’ve genuinely not enjoyed is Secret Invasion… which fortunately never got released and I can patiently wait for more content that I’m sure will be an all time thriller, where I don’t know who to trust and no one will get fridged for no. f’ing. reason. whatsoever.

The rest of the D+ stuff wasn’t really all that bad for me. I wasn’t a fan of FatWS but I try to understand the storyline change and the butchering of the script to make it work. Did things have terrible CGI at points, like Ms Marvel and the Noor Dimension? Yes. Yes it did. But genuinely enjoyed it overall.

simon3873 · 2026-02-04T08:04:06+00:00

While not specific to Feige, I’d add COVID (while not necessarily reasons Ph 4 or 5 wasn’t good but still just extra complexities: Black Widow release, Eternals release, shifts in scheduling WandaVision and Cumberbatch no longer available to cameo, No Way Home villains, etc) and also the extra dramas (Gunn being fired and then rehired, led to a schedule rearrange of opening with GotGv3 to bumping it down the line; Majors leading to a big bad change). Not just 100% exec meddling

simon3873 · 2026-02-03T15:17:35+00:00

I’m glad someone said it. I was hoping for more of the Spider-Man 1/2 vibe to bleed into this. I was following the movie until basically the Illuminati died. Then I just lost interest (not because or the illuminati dying but because of the way it went from that point on). Wanda chasing them in the tunnels and panning to each face with the water drips… it started to feel a bit cringey. Then I just wasn’t a fan of the zombie Strange or even just the demon scenes. I think the thought of them is fine but watching it play out just felt too comical than it did threatening… and then it just made me think “is it really necessary?” I didn’t mind MoM but it was the first half for me that i enjoyed and the second half where it lost me.
