  1. Moana 2 comes out on Nov. 27th.
  2. Okay, so I'm in the middle of watching the interview Sunny did with Matt Murphy about the Menendez brothers. Why don't they do this as a segment on the actual show, instead of just the Youtube channel? It's way better than the fluff interviews they usually do.
  3. I think what she meant was that she can't take large orders in advance since their equipment has been having issues and they don't know how much they'll be able to make day to day. So someone from the show probably called in the morning before the show about the order and since the boiler (broiler?) was working that day, they were able to make the cakes and freeze them until the next day, but they couldn't guarantee that that would have been possible a month in advance. While I agree that they need to fix their equipment, such things are costly and time consuming, so it might not be in the budget right now.
  4. Forgot to add, about Oz killing Vic after poor Vic says they're like family, if you look at all the other mob bosses, it's basically because of family that they get taken out. Sal's family is his weak spot and his trying to avenge their deaths leads to his heart attack. Sofia gets betrayed by her family, then sticks around to avenge the death of her brother, which ultimately leads to her downfall. So while Oz may be a psychopath, it's interesting that the theme if "family's a liability if you're in the mob" is quietly running in the background throughout the show.
  5. The entire show only takes place over a few months, right? So it's possible that no one really knew that Dr. Rush was hanging out with Sofia since she was probably paying him off the books and basically everyone who knew he was working with her is dead. So if he still had contacts at Arkham, then it wouldn't be that hard to get his old job back (I assume that Arkham has staffing issues, given the awful working environment).
  6. I had one fleeting moment in the middle of the episode where I was thinking, "Wait, is Vic actually going to make it out of this series alive?" But then common sense prevailed and I was all, "No, Oz is going to murder him" and I was right. I knew Vic couldn't make it out of the series because they'd need his death to really nail in that the Penguin is a bad guy. Also, where would the character go from here? Make a random cameo in The Batman 2? I didn't expect his death to be so brutal though. I thought Oz would at least make it quick and shoot him or something. Especially cruel to have it be a slow death where Vic is fully aware of being betrayed by a man he'd come to view as family. I saw the second in command double cross coming as well as Sofia getting put back in Arkham. Didn't expect Catwoman to write her though, so maybe she'll bust her sister out at some point? Because I would like to see more of Sofia. What did totally catch me by surprise was Eve dressed as Oz's mother. Good for you show, because that was totes disturbing. Also, Eve, you're in danger, girl! Out of all the weird stuff she's probably had to do as a hooker, I'd imagine that's got to rank in her top 5. I felt that the first four episodes of this show were the strongest but it was still a satisfying viewing experience overall. Even though I called a lot of the twists in the last episode, that finale is still sticking with me the morning after, so that says something. Now I just need The Batman 2 to come out, where hopefully we get to see Sofia and Oz again (even if it's just for Sofia to get some revenge on Oz before dying, cuz I mean, she did kill an entire city block's worth of people).
  7. Early days? Stern was still saying sexist/racist stuff up until about ten years ago. So, until he was 60.
  8. Also, I'm tired of everyone acting as if all Hispanic people in the US are immigrants or the children if immigrants. Hispanic people have been in this country since the beginning. There are tons of cities in California, New Mexico, Arizona, Texas, etc that were founded by Hispanic people. Saying that Hispanic people are upset because they feel people are "jumping the line" and that they're "shutting the door behind them" is ridiculous.
  9. I'm in the middle of watching today's episode, so forgive me for just firing off random thoughts, but why on earth would anyone ever take Howard Stern's thoughts on sexism seriously? We're talking about a man who has had porn stars and strippers regularly on his show, made all the misogynistic comments possible and has just been gross for basically all of his adult life. Of course he thinks all men make horrible comments about women in private. He's a creep who probably only hangs out with other creeps. Why is Joy quoting him as if he's some great defender of women?
  10. I don't think Sofia (or anyone else) knows what Oz did to his brothers. Do we know if their bodies were ever found? I don't know how long it takes a body to decompose in water but eventually their remains would have washed away or been broken down. If they did find them, I guess the door being shut on them would have been suspicious but the police might have concluded that they pulled it shut behind them, not knowing they wouldn't be able to push it open from the inside.
  11. I had suspected that Oz was responsible in some way for his brothers' deaths since they'd been way too vague about them in earlier episodes. Wasn't a fan of the opening though. I'm just over kids being harmed by other kids in shows. It's used regularly enough that I don't find it shocking anymore. It just icks me out. I figured Sal wasn't going to make it, though him dying of a heart attack was pretty anticlimactic. Can see why Oz had to pretend he killed him. Had to keep up appearances, though since he totally ditched out and let his crew be blown to bits, guess it was all for naught. I'm still 50/50 on whether or not Vic and Sofia make it out of the finale alive. I'm okay with Dr. Rush going though. Guy is just super creepy (and was way too eager to mess up/kill a child).
  12. I don't know. I've seen this theory a few places but in WandaVision, Agatha kills her whole coven in 1693 and she doesn't have Nicky until 1750. So she's been killing witches and absorbing their powers for at least fifty years at that point, so I don't think it had anything to do with keeping Nicky alive. And it's not as if they'd be able to kill a coven of witches daily. They probably did it once to a few times a year, because honestly, there couldn't have been that many witches just hanging around. I think it was just to show that Agatha is power hungry and a killer and wasn't going to change for her son. So while she loved him, it didn't inspire her to be a better person or anything.
  13. I don't think that Tommy's spirit was within Billy. I thought it was that Billy had used his powers to put Tommy in a body as Wanda's hex was disappearing, then basically lost all his memories, so he forgot where he put him (which was apparently in a terrible family, so Tommy is going to be way messed up when they find him later).
  14. I think it's just cuz, in the end, Agatha's evil. She's been killing witches for centuries, including her own mother, just to increase her own power. And as she admitted, she was about to kill Alice, Jen and Lilia (poor Sharon would have actually lucked out, since she had no magic to steal) when Billy came down and hexed up the place. I liked the series overall (and good for youtuber Emergency Awesome. I posted his video in last week's thread, but he totally figured out that the road was really Billy's hex and that everything in it was inspired by Billy's room), but I am a bit bothered that now Billy and Agatha are hanging out, as if she's not crazy evil. I get that the character is popular (heck, I even own her Funko Pop from WandaVision), but I'm not a fan of turning bad characters gray. I think because Agatha was going to kill all the witches in the basement but because Billy (unknowingly) made the fake road, she ended up living. What I am questioning in regards to Jen is that Lilia told her she was the way forward (or something like that), but I don't recall her leading them through anything. I mean, this show had a better ending than the majority of Marvel Disney+ shows, so I'm not bothered too much by it, but it is a bit of a plot hole.
  15. Yes. It was also dumb that they weren't suspicious when Mabel didn't text them back in the first place, since they thought someone was actively trying to kill them. Also, call the cops! For the love of all that's holy, the cops have trained snipers who could have taken Marshall out from Charles's apartment.
