Wow, Vasquez sure knows how to strike while the iron's lukewarm.

Erm...yeah. Oops! Agreed on just about everything. It'll definitely be messing with the character from the comics but I'm pretty okay with that. The character of Mike the working class superhero totally fits a modern Nick Cage: Hero for Hire for me.

Peterson's going to come back. Maybe they'll put him in some sort of witness protection... his alias will be Luke Cage (fixed!). MY crazy fanboy theory, and believe me I've been carrying this torch for awhile.

Well I'd argue that not every story needs characters who talk "like real people". If someone's shooting for "natural dialogue" and failing, then that's one thing, but if he's shooting for a Lovecraftian narrative (which is pretty obvious) I'd say he's succeeding. My only real gripe then is not...

This is one of those things that finally makes me feel old. Like my grandmother fifteen years or so ago when I tried to explain the internet to her. Bitcoins. I still don't really get it.

I remember hearing theories that Loki's staff housed an infinity stone, but has that been confirmed? I only ask because in Thor 2 they pointed out that the Tesseract and the Aether were infinity stones, but say nothing of the gem in the staff. Sure, that's not ruling OUT the staff, but would...

Show is getting better, but it hasn't grabbed me yet. I'm a Whedon fan and that's carrying me through. It's not a blind loyalty thing mind you, it's the fact that every show he's done save for Firefly has taken a good while to get good (Firefly was his most realized show right off the bat)...

I think it's pretty clear I wasn't talking about actual violence.

It gives me (and others) every right however to call them insensitive assholes. And they have the right to have some sense knocked in them and understand why people may be bothered by this. Which looks like what happened here! You're assuming people don't have issues with both. But the...

I think you're being too forgiving. Those two accents are pretty different, to me at least!

You know it's funny, I've been getting a weird vibe from them, that maybe they're more/less than human or something even stranger. I now think that may be because in the back of my head they seem a bit reminiscent of the Lutecs. Thanks for clearing that up.

I might have to take you up on this, I watched the first season and haven't been back since.

ZOMG I AGREE SO MUCH BOB. I really thought the show was pretty weak when it started, and when it came back? It infected this family of stereotypes with this wonderful absurdity. It had always been there, in these shy hints, but I don't think it ever fully reared it's head til the show's...

No, he's talking about Thousand Year Door. Sir Grodus and the X-nauts were aliens. Very similar stories though.
