No but you see Hazmat not overcoming the fears the school had for her is really surprising yet logical because Yeah, I got nothing. Marvel saw the Hunger Games make a bajillion dollars and jumped on the bandwagon.

And of course Captain America's not reacting, Bucky barely knows these people. Wolverine's probably just learned to enjoy the soap opera from years with the X-Men. Or he's hungover. And that's a less embarrassing admission than the one she could make about Johnny Storm.

I doubt Sauron's patented that technology. Couldn't Peter just, y'know, copy it and have his company cure cancer? Also, Sauron as Dr Dinosaur is pretty much perfect characterisation. The Question IRL posted:

Metal Loaf posted:I think there's also a scene somewhere (maybe one of the animated films) in which one of Luthor's labs discovers the cure for cancer (while Superman is in the Fortress of Solitude trying and failing to do the same thing), and he immediately orders them to work out how to turn it into a series of lifetime treatments to maximise its profitability. This just reminds me of the sad/hilarious scene from Teen Titans where Speedy asks the group to see if Luthor has a cure for HIV/AIDS.

Titania knocks Crusher out and gives herself up right after that, because, um, sisterhood? I dunno, that whole scene came off really clunky, like Aaron screaming really loudly that he's a feminist without actually having anything specific to say about feminism.

Nah. It just seems like Mjolnir has it's own thing going on. Like, there's parts where she says things about the frost giants or whatever, but her thought bubbles are all "where did that come from?!" Mjolnir also apparently wants her to make a good first impression, because she has the whole 'let go of the hammer too long and turn back to normal person' limit, and the hammer is not just responsible for the costume, but her makeup as well.
