Certainly. I expect that's the point, at this point. Later, when there are some kind of stakes outside of herself, she'll presumably be forced to choose between this idyllic suburban sitcom life...

Family Matters. Steve Urkel. Nuff Said.



Show about magic and the supernatural uses magic to enact a major plot point, which it then spends an entire season unraveling and exploring. ...

It's definitely mean to resemble Khan's hammer, though it remains to be seen who is wielding it.

While I agree to the extent that the story would have worked just fine if Bane was in charge, I've always liked the symmetry between Bruce and Talia in that film. After losing his father, Bruce dons...

Given some of the dialogue at Vision's "job" in the first episode, I've actually been wondering if Vision isn't the entire point, but with an external actor manipulating Wanda to recreate him. All...

Ding ding. Supposedly, in a leaked but early script for the film, Cole turns out to be Scorpion. From the sounds of things, it might be a reincarnation thing, or some kind of blood curse. And...

See the post immediately above yours...

Well, there are lots of rumors that he's not ACTUALLY an OC at all, and will be revealed to be a pretty major MK character by film's end. Will be interesting to see if any of those turn out to be...

None of the equipment matters in the slightest. The only consideration is does Boba Fett get the drop on him. With 100% surprise, and assuming Fett inflicted a mortal blow on his first attack,...

Ok, so... Bo-Katan. I think she's a really misunderstood character, by and large. And I think it's important to note WHY she wants to unite and rule Mandalore: because nobody else will. She...

It wasn't a second wish, strictly speaking. Timing is everything. We see the way the stone works, it grants the wishes more or less instantly. Barbara makes her "apex predator" comment on the...

I once bumped into someone I went to high school with at a boutique shop in a city on an entirely different continent than the one where either of us live, and nearly 10 years after we went to school...

That is not how I interpreted that scene at all. Rather, she happened to bump into him by random chance, and he clearly did not have any memories of her.

Their exchange is that of random people...

I would. This one had issues, and wasn't perfect by a long shot. But I found the first film dull, to the point of being bored. This film at least held my interest. It's not going on my list of...

Which is EXPLICITLY a call back to her original wish, where she wanted to be LIKE DIANA.

She has abandoned her girl crush on Diana, and now wants to be a mean girl. She wants to throw down with...

The bigger tell in that scene of just what is happening to Barbara Minerva is how she treats the homeless guy at the end. That's the same guy she gave food to, and was kind and friendly with,...

Only because Snyder completely misses the point of Superman. The biggest mistake that movie makes is DIVIDING Superman from his humanity.

Superman's power comes from his Kryptonian biology. But...

Barbara didn't feel the need to be better than anybody, save by the end of the movie with Diana. She just wanted to be noticed.

And she was pretty much pathologically incapable of believing that...

That doesn't fit at all with the characters as presented. It just substitutes the characters you wish they had been.

Max's ending was perfect. And Cheetah had no care for anyone else's wishes. She...

So I've been thinking about how weak the action in the film was. And it definitely wasn't a highlight. But the mote I think about it, the more I wonder if the script shouldn't have flipped the final...

That wasn't at all what the film was doing. In fact, it subverted the trope, to an extent. The point of Barbara Minerva in the film is that she was ALWAYS attractive. What was holding her back from...

It didn't remind me at all of the MCU, honestly. It reminded me of the Raimi Spider-Man films. Embracing moments of cheese at times, but not in a way that stretches to parody or disrespect for the...

They're related, I think. The significance of the opening isn't just that cheating is bad, but WHY Diana cheated. She was lying to herself, had convinced herself that she deserved to win even when...

I'm not sure I agree with their choice to leave it ambiguous, bit at least we can write that one off as a deliberate creative choice.

I agree about Wiig's performance.

Also, it's totally un-pc...

If you look at the timing, I'm not sure Barbara got a 2nd wish, per se. We see that the wishea are granted pretty mich instantly, but she makes her apex predator statement on the plane though she is...
