    MCU: Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings

    My son and I watched this earlier and enjoyed it thoroughly. The pace was good, the action was well-choreographed and it paid homage to the various fighting styles used in Hong-Kong cinema: The elegant style used in Wuxia fighting, a-la Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, and the more practical and...

    Only Murders in The Building (Hulu)

    Wife and I have watched the first two episodes so far. It has been great, and if you've watched up to the second episode, you wouldn't think she's the killer. Then again, that is, if nothing in the third episode changes that because I certainly thought she was in the first. Either way, it has...

    Ted Lasso

    I knew they wouldn't go for the easy and obvious trope.

    Ted Lasso

    I do know this show has been very good at subverting tropes and expectations, so a misdirect would be very plausible. Either way. I trust the show enough now that I know that whatever is happening, will be handled well.

    Yup. He's not a big fan of CBMs in general.

    LOLWUT? Scot Mendelson hasn't given a good review to an MCU movie since Infinity War.

    The Boys (Amazon)

    They already have one, just haven't given it an official title yet: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13159924/ Essentially, it's going to be about a "Supes College."

    Dream Team: Birth of the Modern Athlete

    To add: HOLY CRAP. I'm watching this third episode and not even halfway through it and damn, this is a good episode. The scrimmage is as intense as you can imagine it to be. To paraphrase Michael Jordan (his voice is overlaid over the footage, as well as other people being interviewed about...

    Dream Team: Birth of the Modern Athlete

    Is anybody else watching this? It's a five-episode series based on Jack McCallum's Dream Team book and the interviews he recorded in the making of that book. I must say, it's a fascinating watch and shows you how much today's modern athletes have these guys to thank for their largesse. I'm...

    MCU: Black Widow

    You're obviously not a comic book fan. Natasha and the Red Room is like Superman and Krypton or Batman and his dead parents. No comments about the "unoriginal" Superman analogs that are well regarded? I mean, I'm not arguing with anyone. I'm presenting arguments, and you keep sticking to the...

    MCU: Black Widow

    *sigh* It's not a good movie because it isn't a good movie. Again, you can't blame the writers that BW's origin story has been ripped off so many times. The writers can't abandon her origins because others have ripped it off. There are so many Superman analogs all across media nowadays that...

    I didn't think the argument was about this?

    MCU: Black Widow

    My point being: The trope that her writers practically invented has been overused in movies/TV lately. OK. Had they thought about that in the way you do, they then alienate/p i s s off people who know who she is from the comics, especially after they've seemingly disrespected her character with...

    MCU: Black Widow

    They lose with you and they win with everyone else that knows of her or has at least googled her in the past decade. I think they'll take that one.

    MCU: Black Widow

    Huh? Natasha's background with the Russian Red Room has been around since the 60's, when she first showed up in the comics. The trope borrowed from her, not the other way around.
