I just watched "Tully", which reteams Charlize Theron and Diablo Cody for the first time since "Young Adult" I liked it a lot, but I mention it here because I've never been anybody's mom and it was def a movie about motherhood, so even though it seemed, like, right on enough to me, maybe there were still things in it that mothers would appreciate it more. Toddson, good point. Also think people don't look at dates very closely.
Yes! Ohmigod! Someone's blondie bear's a twenty-question genius!

Because books.
Super late to this conversation but I finally saw Endgame (yay!). Two questions: Was Gamora still gone at the very end because she got poofed when Tony snapped his fingers? Since she came with Thanos to now, I guess?
And second, when did Pepper get an Iron suit of her own?! Did I miss that? Or has it been too long since I saw Iron Man 3? (Also, for all her Goopiness and health nut woo woo, Gwyneth Paltrow is not aging very well.)
Wait, one more -- why did Vision not come back? I think I have to watch Infinity War again.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Original Gamora is still dead, in Thanos' exchange for the Soul Stone. 2013 (or whatever) Gamora who came to the future with Thanos is still alive. When you see the Guardians at the end, Quill is trying to search for her, or something.
And second, when did Pepper get an Iron suit of her own?! Did I miss that?
Tony was building it earlier in the movie, when we first meet Morgan. She's taken the helmet to the Rescue suit. But I think it's subtle enough that if you don't catch it, it's a nice surprise when she shows up at the battle.

Because Thanos killed him directly. He didn't die as a result of the Snappening.

Thank you, Dana! I did see Quill searching for Gamora but I didn't understand why.
I need to send you cookies!

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Best guess is Tony snapped away "Thanos and his forces" and since 2013 Gamora had chosen to turn against Thanos prior to that, she was no longer considered part of his army from the Gauntlet's perspective.
I am curious how direct someone's Snap Wishing has to be. Is it absolutely literal where the slightest miswording or oversight results in disaster? Or does it merely interpret the wisher's intent?

So the Math Greek was up this past weekend and we noticed that Bad Times at the El Royale was on HBO and we both vaguely remembered wanting to see it when it came out last year and so gave it a spin. We weren't sure what to expect but found it thoroughly entertaining. Neo-noir on the somewhat snarky side. And then the credits came up and I saw it was Drew Goddard and it all made sense. Highly recommend.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
We saw Yesterday this afternoon and found it totally charming. It will depend on how much you tolerate insane premises and enjoy the Beatles.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I am good with both insane premises and the Beatles, plus I dote on Kate McKinnon, so I'm going to take this as a sign that I must see it.
