When Marvel does it they do it.

I'm hyped for Marvel to clearly, straight up realize "yeah, we've already pissed off every racist shithead by even making this movie so we're not gonna bother sending them any overtures, just make this movie unapologetically black as gently caress and they can die mad about it." I hope it becomes a habit and movie studios stop feeling so beholden to pandering towards regressive dipshits so much.

Tag Team's Addams Family Values song was the best because they just took "Whoomp There It Is" and added "the Addams Family" after "whoomp"

I was really confused because I was thinking "The song doesn't sound like that at all"

I'm thinking of the MC Hammer Addams Family song, which was from the first movie.

I'm convinced Tag Team just forgot to write a song. Like they got the check and got so caught up spending it that they woke up the day they were supposed to turn in a song and were like "poo poo, well they did say they wanted something like Whoomp" and the way outa touch white execs ate it up.

I could see a Nextwave live-action series happening, they could even include some jokes about not being able to call the Avengers by their names or why they're never there to help

They'd be dumb not to have a Young Avengers with Kate, America, Billy, Teddy, Kid Loki, and Stature eventually.

Man, I hope she's Monica, that would be awesome. I'd think a good framing device for the movie was Jessica was a little girl when Carol was around and grew up wondering where her hero and friend went.

^^^^^My introduction to Monica. I love how Nextwave highlighted how overqualified and underutilized she was in universe because it basically summed up the use of her character in comics up until that point.

This casting is the first news from Captain Marvel that has me hyped, I'll be crushed if they pull a Hellcat and relegate her to nonpowered support.

No one is arguing Frank "all women are whores" Miller isn't racist/sexist.
