Israel war
  • I make the analogy with North Korea. North Korea is obviously a threat to South Korea. But if South Korea were to start bombing North Korea and kill 250 people a day the question would be how long it would take for people to ask "Why are you doing this?"

  • Oh and here's another data point.

    "On January 14, 2020, Universal and Warner Bros. Home Entertainment announced that they would partner on a 10-year multinational joint-venture. In North America, their physical distribution operations were merged into a company named Studio Distribution Services, LLC."

    Here's the thing. Imagine you are at Disney Studios in Burbank, California. Leave the lot and take a walk through Johnny Carson Park. Now you're in NBC Burbank Studios. Keep going and you'll find yourself in Warner Brother's Studios. On the other side of the Lakeside Golf Club is Universal Studios. A few months ago the CEOs of these studios were regularly meeting to discuss what they were going to offer the writer's and actor's unions. These CEOs are all supposed to hate each other but now they are like buddies. Seriously, a couple of weeks ago Warner Brother's and Disney announced "The streaming bundle of Hulu, Max and Disney+ is hitting the market today at the price of $16.99 a month with advertising and $29.99 without." Kevin Feige said in an interview recently "if people go to the movie theater and see one of their movies and it has a trailer for one of our movies then that's good for us."

    Anon makes up a word
  • I wrote an essay in high school in which I compared Hamlet and Horatio to Starsky and Hutch or Batman and Robin. I was saying that Hamlet was trying to solve his father's murder and Horatio was his sidekick. The substitute teacher didn't like it so I complained to the regular teacher when he got back.

  • Disney is back to funding conservative politicians again

    I don't know where you are getting this. Disney representatives specifically spoke out against Desantis and his Parental Rights in Education bill and are not funding him and are explicitly supporting the Democrats in Florida. In any case, Marvel itself has always been "woke" with characters like Black Panther, Luke Cage, War Machine and the Falcon. They even had a "Secret Empire" storyline in Captain America that implied that Nixon was involved with Hydra.

  • "Matt Murdock will have to fight Kingpin with more than just his fists in Daredevil: Born Again.

    "The upcoming Disney+ series will see Charlie Cox’s blind superhero plunged headfirst into a brand new world that requires him to utilize both his physical and mental strengths,"

    It sounds like Matt will be challenged with having to stay focused for a whole ninety minutes while Fisk lies about his record. Matt will say he's a "convicted felon" and Fisk will say those were "trumped up charges".

  • Turning to dust when you die is a common trope, https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/NoBodyLeftBehind

    That's not turning to dust. That's fading away like when Obiwon died or when Yoda or Luke Skywalker died. They just disappeared which is good for a PG 13 rating because kids don't see a dead body.

  • Starlin misspelled Thantatos, the Greek God of Death, when he created Thanos. Sutech is an alternative spelling of Set, the Egyptian God of Death.
