Basically: until it happens.

Until it actually, truly happens.

I ain't believing shit.

This is the Youngblood movie of Spider-Man stuff.

I'll believe it when it actually happens.
Oh, they'll acknowledge it happened.

It's canon. It's continuity.

I just don't think they'll fix it.
Hope is good! And hey, maybe this time Lucy WILL let Charlie Brown kick the football.

But I doubt it.
And if it does happen, great!

Just stop asking me to be hyped about it.

Stop telling me "OH MY GOD DID YOU SEE THIS?! IT'S FINALLY HAPPENING!"

Because we've done this song and dance before and I don't think it's going to happen.
And I'm saying "Cool! That'd be nice if this is how it ends." I still have my plan for how I'll handle this if it DOES get undone.

I'm just saying I don't think it'll happen.
Pretty much. What I THINK will happen, if it really does get undone - Peter will call off the deal, May will keel over instantly but Dr. Strange will be on hand to repair the damage. Mephisto makes threats, Peter's all happy, but MJ will be "Nooo, we're...
...two different people now and I can't see us getting married now!" And they'll extend drama out of it.

And hey, I think that will TECHNICALLY fulfill my requirements for the deal being undone so I'll fulfill my end of the bargain. But I won't be happy with it.
Or maybe I'm wrong and Spencer will do fix it all.

But frankly, I have no faith in Marvel. As someone else pointed out, they have no reason to do so. They undid the marriage and Spider-Man sales didn't change. There are probably still writers there who think Peter being...
...married or happy in any way whatsoever is bad.

For fuck's sake, the guy who wrote "Spider-Man Loves Mary Jane" just a couple days ago was told at DC "A happy Wonder Girl is a boring Wonder Girl. Also, kill more Teen Titans" during his run on that book by editors.
The mainstream industry is full of fucking morons.

Even Spencer himself is the guy behind Secret Empire, and we all know how I feel about that.

I don't have faith in them because they've given me no reason TO have faith in them. So forgive me if I say put up or shut up.
God, I've become Alan Moore, with people poking me over something they know I'll react to and I'm just the grumpy old man yelling at clouds.

This is what One More Day has done to me. XD
My God.

A lot of people are confused in the new episode about Elesa's outfit, saying that they think it IS just stripes on the front and showing off, since as a model she'd have unusual outfits. Problem with that theory can be seen in shots like this.
Either the front of Elesa's body is actually triangular or it's just a shirt that weirdly has stripes that are the same color as her skin.
Seeing it from the front sells the idea of it JUST being straps a little better... but man, her breasts would have no support and it still seems kind of iffy around her left one.

As per the vote, now watching Sadako 3D while I edit!

Unsurprisingly, first shot of the movie, where a guy dumps a woman down a well, is distractingly bad because it's done with the 3D gimmick in mind and since I'm not watching in 3D, it looks like a cardboard cut-out falling.
Opening credits are very generic "shaky, slightly staticy movie horror credits," even feels like I've seen the font they used, too.

It's over a guy giggling as he scribbles on walls and sews together white dresses (presumably for all the Sadakos he's been dumping in that well).
Actually, that's kind of an amusing point - we saw a shot from inside the well and he's been dumping women who look like Sadako in it so there's a great big pile of 'em. Reminds me of how in the first movie they needed to empty the well of water to get to her corpse...

Alrighty, finally going to start watching Discovery season 3!

NO SPOILERS, NO "OH, YOU'LL SEE" OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT. LET ME MAKE MY OWN OPINIONS ABOUT IT FOR MYSELF AND THEN AGREE OR DISAGREE BASED ON WHERE I'M AT.
And let's start things off on a few bits of aesthetic issues that keep nagging at me whenever I watch this show:

God, either CGI artists or directors or SOMEBODY is obsessed with CGI sand sculptures. Don't know what I mean? I mean they like thousands of tiny grains of CGI...
...sand forming into objects - like 3-D printing stuff with nanotechnology or whatever. You see it in big CGI battles where we need THOUSANDS of tiny things flying around or in the opening scene where stuff just gets formed out of nothing and it stopped being impressive years...

I freely admit that, being a part of the caustic critic craze of the late-2000s/early-2010s, I helped contribute to a culture that only embraces surface-level, unthinking criticism and angry, bitter, hateful reactions to creators. It's shameful to me since you can draw a line...
...from that kind of attitude to the toxic, bitter, hateful assholes that hurl death threats and abuse at actors, writers, directors, etc. It's one of the many reasons I've tried to be more thoughtful in my critiques and desperately reinforce when appropriate to not attack...
...creators, why even in the new theme song (the one that premiered in the 600th episode and will likely become the full-time theme in the new year when I make the annual changeup to the theme) I don't namedrop awful creators anymore. Hell, even Liefeld - who just in the...

You know what? Fuck it, I should be working on the 600th episode, but this has got me on a tear. Let's talk about the anniversary movies, what I like and what I don't like, with the benefit of hindsight.

Kickassia is a farce. It's an hour and a half long farce about a bunch...
...of internet personalities getting convinced by a narcissist to take over a country and think they know what the hell they're doing. It's goofy, it's ridiculous, and understands its tone.

FFS, I put on a Starfleet uniform with an army helmet and do a bad Patton impression...
...it knows it's not supposed to be taken seriously at all. A lot of people are written out of character (or dated references are made and were pointed out that they'd be dated on set but it was largely ignored), but it's a little more forgivable because there are clear lines...

Dan Didio has held MANY titles during his tenure at DC, but most of them are all in some kind of executive or editorial position where he has dictated how the DC Universe has progressed.

And quite frankly he's not been that great at it.
Oh, sure, there are plenty of successes to be named during his tenure - many good comics and good directions for the DCU have been made... but sometimes those were in SPITE of what Dan Didio wanted.
