I feel that having both Patti Lupone and Aubrey Plaza on this project may have terrified said executives into leaving it alone.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
My brother saw Venom: The Last Dance last night and his review is: "fucking incredible." I generally trust him when it comes to comic book movies (Morbius notwithstanding), so do what you will with his 2-word assessment.

Also, Jess posted this back in July about Agatha All Along:
Ugh, FINE, I guess I want to watch this. But they'd better let Kathryn and Aubrey and Patti be REALLY FUCKING WEIRD.
I feel like Marvel met that expectation beautifully.
And, since I think I haven't said it here, if Agatha All Along doesn't bring Wanda back in the end, I will riot.

Man, this last episode of Agatha was really good. That time jumping thing is hard to pull off and it worked really well for me.

Yes! The time-jumping was done really well!

I guess Patti LuPone can check off the E on her EGOT card.

So far about the only thing I haven't loved on the show is the set design for those glowy underground passages that looks right out of Xena or Sorbo's Jerkules show. All the acting, the writing, the cinematography, etc. is landing perfectly for me.

Thrive to spite them
I finally watched Deadpool v Wolverine. I think the light show at the end would have been a big problem in the theater. I'm not sure if I would have enjoyed it more in the theater but I was left feeling a little...I had questions and stuff I couldn't hist shrug off
Like ...the worst Wolverine and his tragic backstory ..were those the worst X Men as well because...he went out and got drunk and a bunch of humans killed everyone because he wasn't there?
I thought Gambit's powers were done well but I'm glad here is not going to be a Channing Tatum Gambit movie...just no

Er, I just saw a headline the other day about Ryan Reynolds saying D v W had renewed the studio's interest in that project.
