'Objects In Space'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
we had never seen any of them in New York
I felt they drove home quite squarely how much Steve was at home in NY with his effortless directions and internal map of the city. He's a Brooklyn guy, and wakes up in New York after getting frozen.
So, given that Iron Man set up a residence there between movies, and that's where we last left Cap, is it really a big deal?
Oh right, I never saw Captain America. So he could be crossing paths with Spider-Man at some point in the mythical cross-licensing future. But there's no reason he has to.
is it really a big deal
No. If I recall correctly, you're the one that suggested it was strange to have all these superheroes in the same place though. Why not spread the super-love?
This is part of why I think I prefer the DC way of doing things. Make up places, and there's less likelihood of crossover.
I'd just rather they bump into each other, as opposed to leave. I have no problem with the idea that NY is crawling with metas.
this Son of Coul shirt.
Sigh. Really, boys(1)? I get that it's an Army of Darkness riff, but when you reduce Natasha in a way the movie explicitly refused to do......yeah.
(1) by which I mean the shirt designers, not P-C or anyone else here.
The movie explicitly what? I think you're giving it a lot of credit, or taking a lot from the shirt--I'm not sure which.
Explicitly refused to reduce her to an attractive piece of meat, by deliberately undercutting the people who tried to do that(Loki and the mafioski, I mean).
And what I'm taking from the shirt is that Natasha is hanging off a male character, in a way she never did in the movie.
I had the same gut reaction, chris.
You're talking about the Natasha in the pushup bra with the zipper partway down? And her butt pushed out in a very non-gun-stance way? Because you got a different Natasha from the one in my copy.
