So it looks like Iron Fist sucks. I was so psyched when this show was first announced; I was hoping they would cast an Asian in the role and it would be cool, but no such luck.
On the other hand, Thor: Ragnarok is looking good.
Take jobs as they come -- and we'll never be under the heel of nobody ever again. No matter how long the arm of the Alliance might get, we'll just get ourselves a little further.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Not into Thor's new look, and def not happy with the lack of Mjolnir. But most importantly, will Hela be Loki's daughter (as she should be)?

Well, Netflix has had a really good record with their Marvel adaptions. I guess they were due for a dud. Too bad, though.
I'm looking forward to Thor: Ragnarok, though.
will Hela be Loki's daughter
That would be hella good!
(I'll see myself out.)

Finally, we will all have our opportunity to love Cate Blanchett and despair!

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Not into Thor's new look
The hair *does* support the theory that Thor posed posed as Kevin in Ghostbusters to get some experience just being a regular Midgard dude.
And I am ALL THE WAY THERE for Jeff Goldblum.

I like that theory!
I also am 100% here for Grandmaster Goldblum.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
See, I actually have a massive hate-on for that theory, because it undermines the whole point of the inversion of the token female character they have going on there. But I'm a totally killjoy about that, I know.

It's just a silly idea, though. In the GB universe, it wasn't Thor. The subversive point, I think, still stands.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I am enjoying Legion very much. Complex plots that unfold in quirky and challenging ways, cool art direction, unexpected Bollywood dance numbers --It's right up my alley.
