Enjoy it while you can, all shows will be cancelled and replaced with The Apprentice reruns in Trump's America.

I think Ike Perlmutter is a Trump supporter, so everything under him is safe.

ED: Still worth watching and if you haven't seen DD Season 1, go sign up for Netflix because that was a stellar, tight season. The change in show runner hurt, a lot.

Don't forget the other shows like Jessica Jones and Luke Cage. Netflix also have all the previous seasons of AoS, and the best comic book show iZombie.

For all the talk about Kree super science and terrigenesis being divine ascension, those InHumans sure are engineered like poo poo. That's a pretty crap defect for a quake energy wave person.

I expected better of super ancient alien science. :colbert:

As Sif said in season 2, they are supposed to be slaves to the Kree. You want to make sure they're not too powerful in case they get uppity.

A man can dream.

Was he supposed to be Scott's brother or his uncle or something in Apocalypse? Dude was like 19 in 1961. His younger brother is 16 in 1983?

Brother, and I think he was supposed to be almost 40 in Apocalypse. Which is funny since he's in another upcoming movie playing a high schooler. Maybe mutants age better.

bloodychill posted:

Best-aged 31 year old in television. Meanwhile, the dude playing Pietro really did look 12 years older.

Ironicly, Evan Peters can probably play a 20-ish guy in his 40s.

Avenger's Pietro married a woman 30 years his senior. Can't beat that.

At the end of the day, the typical comic book nerd opinion is "DC movie bad, Marvel movie good, DC CW good, AoS bad, Netflix Marvel good" regardless of the actual quality of these shows.

It's also not to be confused with the general public opinion, where DC and Marvel movies are about as profitable as one another while Gotham is more popular than any single CW show or AoS.

The MSJ

DC is not really trying to copy Marvel when it comes to movies. If the MCU movies had been progressing like the DC ones, Iron Man would have been followed by a Hulk vs Iron Man movie the year after, which would probably be better from a narrative standpoint and sets up their science bro status in Avengers. As it is, a lot of more interesting things that could have happened in Phase 1 (Cap's WW2 adventure, Stark facing the consequences of his father's actions, Thor finding an alternative route to Earth) had to be handwaved away in order for The Avengers to arrive by 2012.

Zach Snyder figured out a lot. The problem for most people is that it's not the same thing they figured out. All the mythic elements and thematic subtext of his movies are like him making a Westworld Host design and construction video for an audience of Hosts. "I don't see anything here."

When Tony's picking a new A.I. for his suit, his hand passes over, then goes back and hovers over J.O.C.A.S.T.A.. Then he moves on to F.R.I.D.A.Y..

There's an interview Joss Whedon about his Batgirl movie and predictably he voices some issues he had with Marvel, including him disagreeing with the decision to resurrect Coulson for AoS.
