IIRC, it wasn’t just a random engineer that people were saying could have been Reed, it was that Monica had an engineer friend who specialized in cosmic radiation.

I get Wanda getting away scot-free, because there was no one set up in the show that could stop her. Strange knows about her, so whether she really gets away depends on the follow-up she gets next.

I assumed this meant that the pop would be from this particular version of this character making a cameo.

Anyone still playing Marvel’s Contest of Champions?

Am I the only one that wants to see Space Jerri Blank in Guardians?

I’m interested to see what they do with the next group of movies, especially since these shows are using/introducing so many people whose whereabouts in the sequel trilogy are unknown, like Ahsoka, Grogu, Bo-Katan, and Omega. And the Rebels crew too.

Finally had time to watch this week’s episode, and it was fucking awesome. Deepfake Luke is definitely just off enough to be a little unsettling, as was the emotionless AI voice, but damn, that’s prime Luke Skywalker for me, and it’s something I never thought we’d actually get, so it was practically comfort food for me. It may not be the best, but it’s what I needed right then. Then Cad Bane starts walking up and at first, when he’s in the distance, I’m like, that looks a little like Cad Bane. When they show him again and it’s clearly his hat? “Fuck yeah! That is Cad Bane!” I was so amped, I didn’t even think about his history with Boba right away. @TheVileOne makes some dead on points about the past two episodes undermining this as a Boba Fett show (especially one called “The Book of Boba Fett”), but it doesn’t bother me as much because I think a lot of these Star Wars shows are going to follow the MCU movie route of throwing characters into different shows with interconnected plots. It wouldn’t surprise me if all of these shows basically ended up as akin to an anthology series. It absolutely weakens them as individual series, but IMO strengthens the overall universe.

“Then what happened to the 198?!?!” -some comic nerd, probably

Yeah, there was an ad for Bova brand milk in the background of one of the show openings, which if that was supposed to be dug up from her subconscious, means my fellow Johnny could get his wish.

I don’t know about 2007, but Dr. Of Thuganomics, rappin’ about someone sucking on deez *tosses a bag of nuts to his opponent* would probably be ok with it.

Yeah, that seemed like a pretty likely reveal for me as well. I absolutely shouldn’t be surprised in the slightest, but John Cena’s ability to commit 100% to something completely ridiculous is incredible.

I think I love everything about Peacemaker, although it probably helps I don't have any attachments to the characters from the comics, otherwise I can tell Vigilante’s portrayal would annoy me.

Fortuna was Jabba’s majordomo before taking over the throne when Jabba died.

I suck at recognizing musical cues, but even I caught the one at the end.

According to the title of a YouTube video I noticed while looking for the trailers, there are Easter eggs referencing the Black Knight and Blade in the trailer, but I didn’t notice any off the bat.

Plus, I’m sure Marvel’s paying for a dietician/trainer so why not?

I just started the first episode of The Flash Armageddon, and why didn’t anyone tell me about the drinking game where I drink each time they say “leveled up.”

It shouldn’t be, but having grown up with the original Star Wars, it’s still a little weird to me to see recognizable actors in the Star Wars universe. Harrison Ford and Mark Hamill are always Han and Luke to me when I see them in other stuff, but now I’m like Milton! Machete!

I don’t know if you can take that with too much of a grain of salt. The preview I just watched started with Ms. Marvel, and when they went through the titles at the end, “new episodes” of Boba Fett was towards the middle and it ended with Eternals, which comes out Wednesday.

Is the Runaways series on Hulu any good? I’m catching up on Stargirl and thought the team that makes it would probably do a good Runaways show.

I think this would go in this thread?

I haven’t seen Solo yet, and if they named them in this episode I missed it, but I never made the connection that was the Pyke Syndicate because they seemed stockier than in the Clone Wars.

I wonder how well these Star Wars tv series play with super casual fans. I’ve seen the movies, read some of the early Zayn books, have watched Clone Wars, Rebels, Bad Batch, etc…; and am vaguely aware of the comics, and even I’m like “Am I supposed to know who tf [insert any character the camera lingers on] is?” I think I like this show, but I’m honestly not sure. The flashbacks are better than the present stuff at the moment.

I liked Mythic Quest a lot more than I expected. There are moments the Always Sunny dna comes through, but it’s more than that. I watched the first season of The Morning Show with my wife, and it was interesting. The me too stuff wasn’t necessarily well done, but I enjoyed Billy Crudup and the Duplass brother that acts.
