Is this a threat.

 

I watched Queen of the Damned with my roommates the other night. I have a sick fascination w/ late 90's/early aughts that lean on the nu-metal side of things. I love how most movies with fictional bands have them singing original songs, whereas this movie just had Stuart Townsend "singing" multiple Korn songs.

 

The reviews for The Souvenir: Part II are incredible. Who would have thought that that was a film that would not only have a sequel but surpass it?

 

Very excited to see it. The first was brilliant

 

this is the first time i’ve seen Kumail referred to as “the guy from portlandia”

 

Right? Real ones would know his more popular show, Broad City

 

Also getting jacked was apparently his choice and no one suggested it to him

 

If Disney was gonna pay me to get in shape I’d take full advantage too

 

oh my god, that post was about Kumail?!?!!? I legit thought Fred Armisen was in a marvel movie because literally everyone is these days

 

Kumail Nanjiani? That the guy from Veep?

 

that dude from Franklin and Bash got so jacked

 

I am much more likely to sew a marvel movie if Fred armesin is a jacked up superhero. Take note hollywood

 

The creepy Hillary Clinton cameo has kept me from ever watching that show.

 

It's a phenomenal show

 

I am sure it is. I have seen the reviews and the accolades. I just know this is in there.

 

Yeah he said in his mind super heroes are muscular and he wanted to be able to actualize that

I also get all the steroid jokes but it's clearly making him feel really bad and I feel bad because he seems nice

 

Other than Lars von Trier, has anyone actually gone ahead and actually destroyed the world in a movie?

 

Alex Proyas did it in Knowing

 

Umm thanos half did it, thank you

 

I only saw the Thanos ones; do the subsequent films ever explain how half the population was re-integrated into society? What happens if your spouse re-married? Did you get your job back? What about kids who were clearly five years older than their peers?

 

they explain none of that.

 

Actually Spider-Man: Far From Home, Wandavision briefly, and Falcon & The Winter Soldier especially all get into different aspects of what it was like for half the world's population to suddenly come back after five years. One of the main plot points in Far From Home is how one of Spider-Man's classmates, who had previously been five years younger than them but wasn't dusted by Thanos, is now vying for MJ's affections against him. In Wandavision the beginning of one episode portrays a hospital on the day everyone suddenly returned and the chaos that it caused. Falcon & The Winter Soldier's whole plot involves a group trying to resist the forced relocation of people who had lived through the Blip, where borders essentially became meaningless, back to their home countries following the return.

Black Widow takes place before Infinity War. Shang-Chi doesn't touch on it too much. Loki doesn't take place in the main MCU reality. That's all that there's been from Marvel since Endgame.

 

No

 

I thought everyone got their job back but it counted against their paid time off
