Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I liked the first Deadpool movie, but oddly I've got zero interest in seeing another one.
I quit AoS mid second season. Seems like I should have liked it but I didn't.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I've been enjoying the back half of this season, but mostly because I thought it was the endgame! So I have mixed feelings about the renewal.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Would this be the place to mention that there is, seemingly, a gag reel from Black Panther? I saw some gifs from it ....

I'd be very happy if all shows were no more than 12 episodes a season.

Having a short season helped Black Lightning a LOT.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Deadpool: Yes! They made a "guy who can't draw feet" joke!

All is well that ends in pizza.
AoS:
So they are going to try and find Frozen!Fitz?
Won't he be surprised to see a ring on Simmon's finger...

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I've been trying to wrap my head around cryo-Fitz still being out there somewhere. I've almost managed.
I suspect he'll be surprised by a number of things.

I'll watch the last half-season of AoS because I've stuck it out this long and why not, but the fakeout retirement party/funeral scene pissed me off no end. The amount of verbal gymnastics it took to make sure none of the characters said anything about who they were mourning/celebrating until the very end of the scene, is bullshit. That is not a good reveal show, that is pointless manipulation.
I hope they will spend at least some of next season addressing the fact that Fitz DID ACTUALLY DIE, and maybe Simmons should be allowed to feel something about that other than inconvenience at all the stuff she'll have to fill him in on. (I realize that comparing this show to Farscape is not going to end well for AoS, but COME ON.)
