  1. I'd expand IHA's scope to anyone who has natural superpowers (that aren't temporarily induced by drugs or whatever) and just run with it. They want to save the world of "normal" human beings from all the "freaks" that seem to be coming out of the woodwork.

    Well, there were several aspects of the production that suggest someone intimately familiar with the comics had major input into it. The color palette used in the film was bright primaries. The architecture of Sakaar looked quite Kirby-esque. One skyscraper exterior with monumental faces on it included one of Beta Ray Bill. The connection between Surtur and the Eternal Flame comes from the comics, not myth. Korg looks to be a Kronan, Thor's oldest comic-book enemy.

     

    None of which matter when the characters in the film treat all of the ultra serious events in the movie like a joke. It's even worse in Love and Thunder. I'm all for humor in these films, but it should be balanced based on the plot. And if the makers of Ragnarök really liked comics...we would have actually gotten The Grandmaster instead of Jeff Goldblum in makeup. UGH!

    y'know what makes for a really awful, terrible way to start one's morning?

     

    finding out there's been ANOTHER!!!! mass shooting event.  6 more dead because some messed up, unhinged, imbalanced whackjob got his hand on a gun and blasted away.

     

    God it hurts.  I am sooo damn tired of it....

     

    It will never end. The nation lacks the political will to do anything about it. And those who have the will...lack the power.

    That is a Mechagodzilla from 1974's Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla isn't it ?

    I want one but for some reason they cannot be exported from America to Britain otherwise I would have had one from Amazon a while ago.

     

    No Mechagodzillas in this photo. This is my Ultra monster wall. The only Godzilla related ones are on the floor. I do have many MANY other walls though. LOL

    This was to be expected. The GOP and their base have both become radicalized. From a tactical standpoint, it's actually better for the Democrat candidates if all their opponents are loons like this. That's more likely to motivate every non-radical to vote against the Republicans. Of course it will be bad if Republicans like this actually win enough seats in Congress to dictate policy.

     

    It's a dangerous game they're playing.
