MAHERSHALA ALI AS BLADE.
I want to point out that I (who was not in this thread, 'cuz I hadn't seen Far from Home yet) texted Atropa with full ASSCAPS FLAIL the moment I saw the news (basically right after it was announced) and our text thread was pretty much this, only extended and with more HOLY SHIT!!!!s.
I'm curious if they're going to leave Blade as his own thing or if they're just going to say "Surprise, there were vampires all along!"
Certainly I don't think there could be a secret conspiracy between vampires and the government of the US/other nations co-existing with SHIELD, HYDRA, and such without the latter having had any inkling of it til now. If Blade is in the regular MCU, vampires will have to be much less organized and much better at covering up their activities without the aid of authorities looking the other way.
Haven't seen tonight's SHIELD, but my prediction for the last two episodes:
Tom Riker
So how many of you caught the rap battle between Jemaine Clement and Jason Mantzoukais?
Where was that? I MUST see it immediately.
Monday night's Legion, (Season 3, Episode 6).
It was glorious, although very disorienting, and that's from someone who is caught up with the show.
The season 2 premiere presented a telepathic combat as a multi-person crew dance-off, and the season 2 finale featured another one as a musical duet with mixed live action/traditionally animated cartoon graphics. So it's really just keeping the tradition alive.
OK, that will get me to watch Legion again
(It's not that I don't like it, it just takes actual attention to watch and I haven't been up for that lately)
Apropos of nothing: it just hit me recently that if Steve took the long way back to give Sam the shield he has to go through losing Peggy again. And I kinda wonder if Old!Steve got Snapped (or Blinked or whatever). If it's half of all life forms that did, that would kind of make sense....
I stopped watching Legion two episodes into the current season, but I did watch the rap battle on YouTube and it was everything I had hoped for.
