Regarding Warren Ellis, I have no idea what he should be doing currently, I don't know anything new if he has done it since 2020.
2) Yes, that's true, I don't like it either and I don't know what its purpose is either.
3) That's good that the fans are able to mobilize and be able to do something that they didn't like, to have the original director's version that couldn't be done for various reasons and also that the director was also motivated to do it is a good thing.
4) Me Too, that's why I wasn't sure, so the Doctor Strange thing would have been the first-time during Acts of Vengeance.
5) Yes, none of that story makes sense and it was in tremendous bad taste.
6) I think maybe she would be a little closer to Sif, Lorelei is young but a different youth, she is young but also adult, Thor is older than her, just like Loki (at least the old Loki, the current one would be a similar age). The Enchantress would indeed be closer to Thor and Loki's age.
The old Sylvie thing would be flashes that happen from time to time, leading to headaches, migraines, hangovers, as time goes by, she lives with it but it is not something she is able to explain, not even to the most people closer to her because she doesn't even understand why it happens to her, she sees it as something that she knows is not going well, although she does not consider them bad memories but they are disturbing for her because she seems to feel them as happiness until at the end of her life she begins to understand them but it is very late. Also, when Sylvie is in the past, she wears a lot of green, she has a symbol (Loop Circle) that she doesn't understand what it is and because of the love she has for her daughter Amora before her father's incident happened, she decides to pass it on to her because Amora always dresses the same way as inspiration, fashion and because she loves it because it fits her.
7) I really believe that that was an inspiration for many later comics and characters, a clear example of absolute inspiration being Spider-Man's relationship with the Black Cat, everything seems completely copied in this case. I have always seen The Batman Show of the 60s as something humorous, seeing it with the eyes of 2023 you have the feeling of watching a comedy because of how ridiculous it is, I understand that at that time it was a boom.
8) I have no idea and I can honestly understand it, especially when the first movie wasn't a hit. But the comics are and should be something different, not depending on what happens in the MCU. I've seen that about The Marvels somewhere during the week and it doesn't look like the box office estimate will make it work, although there could be some surprises, sometimes those things happen but seeing the trend of the latest Marvel movies, it's scary to think about it.
9) Yes, I was also interested in knowing what the original fairy tale stories were like and I was really impressed by how terrible and bloody they were and that they didn't exactly have happy endings. I understand that when they wanted to adapt them to new times, the most difficult and horrible parts, they removed them or changed them so that children when reading them would not be scared or traumatized by the stories, although they were surely not even for children. Then there's the fact that Disney sugarcoated it in such a way that the horrible became something happier and nerdier, but more acceptable to children.
10) I suppose so, when I have seen stories about Wonder Woman or in the Titans comics referring to Donna Troy I have seen it quite clearly. And about Hercules, I'm surprised that Marvel, with all the success of Thor, didn't try harder with him when, for the most well-known story, Hercules has always been there, but the Norse story has been more popular for years for Marvel, although more than Nordic history, more time they has been lost in the cosmic than in stories of Vikings, mythology and Asgardians in general.
