Who wants to try some fish oil to see if they get superpowers
I take fish oil every day and haven't manifested a single superpower yet. I call shenanigans.

On the plus side, you also haven't turned into a briquet.
I want to know why the fish didn't turn into briquettes. They're not inhuman either.
They're not inhuman either.
Nor are they human.
There's two elements at play, the mists which actually transform Inhumans (and have no effect on humans, as evidenced by Tripp being unharmed when the mists were released in the Kree temple) and the Diviner metal, which charcoals any non-Inhuman that touches it.
Jiayang says they created their own crystals by melting down a Diviner, but some of the metal got infused in the new crystals. That's what kills Gonzales and Agent McBeard when she breaks the crystals, not the mist itself.
So I'm assuming only the Mist portion of the crystals is what is getting absorbed by the fish. (Apparently the Inhumans never tried dissolving the new crystals to remove the Diviner impurities, or didn't care.)
Oh, I'd forgotten about the metal itself being toxic, I was thinking he had somehow absorbed the mist.
I love the Foggy guy, and find him compelling, but I sometimes do weird things where I make people better in my head and don't notice (see Katie Holmes/Joey Potter).
They did such a good job with Vincent D'onofrio's costumes- all the open collars and beautiful rolls on the collars making his neck look huge.
I agree, though, we need MORE Rosario Dawson! She was great! I weirdly can't think of a single thing she was in except Rent, and I briefly thought she was the actress who played Kendra on Buffy, and just she got much, much better
I need to marathon Daredevil, but I'll be at a convention all weekend. Maybe Monday, I should be done noon-ish or early afternoon.
Wow, SO in the wrong thread.
OK, re: Ultron--who else is irked by Joss' apparent disregard for the characterizations established by Tony and Steve's standalone movies? Tony blew up all his suits, established he could kick ass without them, and found a way to cope with his PTSD--no, no, he built a new army and is a danger to everyone around him! I can't pin down the differences between Winter Soldier Steve and Ultron Steve, but he did not feel like the same guy.
The jokes mostly felt forced, like in the first Avengers movie. ("He's adopted?" always lands like a lead balloon of offensiveness.)
I know the studio had certain beats that needed to be hit, but it would have been nice if it seemed Joss had seen even a plot summary of IM3. Two lines could have done it: "I thought you blew up all the suits." "Well, the world keeps wanting to blow itself up, too, so . . ."
And what was the purpose of the anti-Iron Man graffiti at the beginning? It's like they just wanted to establish Tony as a villain without showing any reason why. People say Joss has a crush on Tony, but it's more like he sees Tony as a convenient scapegoat.
In a more general way, I've always been surprised that the general reaction to mutants was fear and hatred. Where are the groupies? The cosplayers? Granted, I last read comics in the 90s, so I may have missed something.
