IJWTS I am here for Disney Robin Hood Asgard
And I am grateful for being told that was Frog Thor because I couldn't see who that was on my little screen, just that there was motion.
I had it in my head that the smoke monster would somehow be disappointing because Lost, but no, not at all
I was TOTALLY thinking "Is this the island from Lost???"
The explanation of the Void doesn't line up with what we're seeing—it's clearly just the variant people/items that are pruned that are ending up there to be disintegrated by the smoke monster, not the entire divergent universes. Maybe once the reset charges eliminate those, the timelines just sort of merge back into the Sacred Timeline?
Hahahaha I have so effectively erased Lost from my memory that my instinctual reference for the smoke monster was the evil cloud from the 1980s Care Bears movie and/or Ferngully.
I enjoyed Black Widow.
Florence Pugh was a delight.
So next to me in the theater were two guys, one of whom apparently has had no exposure to the MCU at all. Why he came to see this is a mystery. But he was VERY CONFUSED by the beginning of the movie, and then when there was a line about "Steve Rogers and Natasha Romanov are on the run" he asked, "Is Steve Rogers the father????" Oh buddy. He was also VERY LOUD and occasionally his friend would lean over to whisper things to him, but I'm guessing that was their last superhero movie together.
I definitely enjoyed the movie, although I wish it had had a different kind of ending. Like, this story did not need that massive final battle.
I liked that they crammed so much into the penultimate episode of Loki. Sometimes finales are super crowded and the end feels like running into a closed door, emotionally.
I also enjoyed Black Widow. I’d have enjoyed it more after Civil War, but what can you do?
I just saw Classic Loki described as Old Man Yells at Cloud and I’m ded
Old Man Yells at Cloud
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
