Lantern7

Thought: if one of the heroes gets the Gauntlet and hits reset, how many characters could be brought back that were dead before AIW?

Just checking to see who has been getting reacquainted with the anime. I’ve been DVRing . . . but I did notice Toonami took out the post-credits teasers. Kinda sucks, but since “Ride On Shooting Star” is intact, maybe I shouldn’t complain.

Before I go to bed and still thinking about AoS . . . wanna know how the fourth movie ends? Mack killing Thanos with his shotgun axe, right into that bloated purple noggin. In case you don't watch Agents of SHIELD, Mack basically fused an axe and a shotgun. Why would you need a shield, Stormbreaker or Eye of Agametto when you have that?!? Wasn't "Stormbreaker" the name of Beta Ray Bill's hammer? For anyone not into comics . . . he was a horse-looking alien that was worthy enough to wield Mjolnir. I know, sounds dumb, but the stories were from Walt Simonson, and they were epic as fuck. I think Bill's visage was seen in Ragnarok.

I don't even remember that last second from Fury. If he's dead for good, it would be a fitting sendoff for SLJ. I missed Agents of SHIELD last night thanks to napping. I don't think there was any crossover. I can imagine the team having a great day, only for most of them to poof out. Everybody but Coulson, who just yells "COME ON!!!!!" Kinda want him to live. And now I want Loki to live, so he can admit to Phil that killing him was a dick move. "Eh, I got better." "You go to Tahiti? I hear it's a magical place." "Fuck you, Loki." BTW, did anyone say where the "real" shield was stashed?

Good thing Trunks looked like he went Super Saiyan God. Things might have gotten ugly. Well, uglier. Goku Black: The mighty Goku is dead! Yet again! Zamasu: Ultimate justice is upheld! Zero mortals in any universe!! Vegeta: (facepalming) You know, I just got it. Right now, it all came together. Zamasu: (to GB) I told you the monkey had a brain! Goku Black: I owe you zeni! Vegeta: Okay, you're both insanely powerful, so I'll let that go. (pointing to Zamasu) You made a wish to be invulnerable, right? You're a Kai, so I'm thinking you can do most of what you wanted. (pointing to Goku Black) And you're him, except you took Kakkarot's body for yourself. Goku: Black: Your point? Vegeta: I was wondering . . . why are you both here? Together? And not just in the sense of "both of you can't be here, the universe would unravel" or anything like that. And I got it. Zamasu: And . . . ? Vegeta: (smirking) You two fuck each other, don't you? Zamasu: (mouth open, making guttural noises) Goku Black: You dare? YOU DARE?!?!??? Vegeta: Hey, I don't even want to think about it . . . but I'm right, aren't I? Both of you want to be the ultimate savior of the universe with this "Zero Mortals" bullshit. Both of you want to do it alone. But either one of you is basically beyond a god. You don't need a second pair of eyes! Zamasu: (recovering) And you think . . . ?!? Vegeta: I don't think. I know. You two fly into a world, kill every last person, find a lovely spot near a setting sun . . . and you just go to town on each other. I'm thinking a coin is flipped to see who does the buggering. Twenty minutes of pure action, a few minutes to smoke, then onto the next world. Zamasu: That's quite the imagination you have, Vegeta. Vegeta: You have a point. Five minutes. I can't see either of you as a generous lover. And believe me, I know. Bulma: (blushing) He finally admits it! Zamasu: Well . . that is . . fuck. RUN!!!!! (grabs onto Goku Black as he Instant Transmissions away) Vegeta: Well, I wanted to be the greatest Saiyan. And now I'm the only Saiyan. Dragons fucking ruin everything.

@Silver Raven: I meant later in the year, like Ragnarok was. We got AMTW this summer, then Captain Marvel In February. Thinking about it, while I’m guessing a lot of the “dead” will come back . . . there aren’t any cosmic characters in the fix. From what I remember, it was all cosmic folks in Infinity Gauntlet. I guess Captain Marvel would count, but I was thinking along the lines of Adam Warlock and Silver Surfer.

@Victor the Crab . . . aren't "couch tumors" the term for hemorrhoids for people who binge subscription TV? Very nice phrase. And yeah, that was funny. I know that I should be ashamed that I don't seek out news like that until Trevor gets to it, but it's like wearing special glasses during an eclipse. Any other method, I risk burning my brain out. Isn't Ronny a correspondent, or is he just in-studio? I don't think anybody can capture Lewis' intensity, though. Trevor was a pro with Thandie Newton. If I'm there, all of the time would been spent on variations of, "How do you hear that HBO viewers are qualified to give you a thorough medical exam, because they've become that intimate with your naked body?"

"Thanos of Titan!! You just took out half of the universe's population!! What are you going to do now?!?" "Shit . . . .I . . . shit. Is there a Diseyworld anymore? I could go with my daug- . . . damn. What the shit was wrong with me?" That was epic. Yeah, there were flaws, and Gamora looked so stupid and she went out like a punk. Red Skull: Surprise, guys! I'm kindasorta the guardian of the Soul Stone. Basically, you have to sacrifice something really special to get it. A soul for a soul. Thanos: [contemplating] Gamora: [tense] Red Skull: Yep . . . . something reeeeeeeeeeeeeally special. Or someone. Like, maybe somebody you love so much. Thanos: [grunts] Gamora: [still tense] Red Skull: You aren't listening to me, are you, woman? I could be reciting and mangling Hugo Weaving lines and you wouldn't notice. "Mr. Thanoson, welcome back. How I missed you." Thanos [turns around] Red Skull: While I'm at what I'm presuming is the very last of my screen time . . . .Hydra. What the fuck was I thinking with that?!? Thanos just doesn't give a fuck, in the sense that he focused so much on the halving, and he didn't fix anything around that. Minimum, I would've used the Mind Stone to "adjust" memories of the survivors. The comics Thanos seemed like a guy that wanted worship and fear. This one had a job, he did it, and now he wants to kick back. Seriously, though, epic movie. My mother wasn't into it. She thought it was too long. My rebuttal is that it wasn't three hours, and I can probably retain things better. The deaths-by-rapture were tragic, even though the Gauntlet is basically a giant reset button. Shit, even Loki and Hemidall might get brought back. Or the dudes from the end of Ragnarok. Seriously, the Black Order killed everybody we grew to like? Including Rock Kiwi and the Unhived Brood?!? Not Valkyrie, though. She probably found a small planet what was encompassed by a single bar, and she jumped ship. I probably have more thoughts, but I'll do that over time. Like how the Rapture will probably "kill" Scott and/or his supporting cast. Or how there's no MCU film later this year, and we won't know what happened for another year. Wait . . . .another 53 weeks. Oy. ETA: The reason for the Arrested Development shoutout. Did not notice that. Collector really loves collecting, even though his tastes obviously suck.

One, this is for charity, so the stakes aren't that huge. Two, if Louise is successful here and wins the ost money, then I think Wes would get pissed. Seriously, how many seasons has he done? Number of wins: two. Once again, maybe that mindset works if Johnny isn't there to fuck it up, but Wes strike me as the jealous type.

Found a clickbait list on forgotten Toonami shows. Of course, I recognized most of them, because I'm a geek. There's no publication date . . . not a good look when you shoot for "obscure," and the first piece you post was recently reaired.

“Kenny”? Do the 7 and 22 mean a start date of July 22 over in Japan?

The only time I considered that happening was after Jessie failed. I don’t think they had to do another take to build up the shock. I reckon they were openly cursing in sheer disbelief. Matt & Akbar are professionals, but Jessie was so close to clearing Stage One once again

I don’t remember that much from the NYCC screening. I kept notes during the episode, but I didn’t use them because I was focusing on the panel itself. I believe the line that got the biggest laugh was, “OW! MY TWAT!” I don’t think that word gets used on TV, so hearing it was jarring, then hysterical. Thanks, Pam!!

I can't see that. The furthest I see is Curtis joining the Legends, but Gideon can probably whip up spheres like his with no effort. Also, given how Diaz was all "Life ain't fair," I think Curtis' days are numbered. Remember, he is the guy wearing the jacket with "FAIR PLAY" on the sleeves. Just speculation on my part . . . and something for you to hope for. :P Oh, and another Laurel popped up on The Flash. One more for Quentin to get weird about. Maybe the next big Arrowverse crossover will be "Crisis Of Infinite & Useless Laurels."

Diaz: Mumble mumble, life ain't fair. Oliver: He has no honor!! Anatoly: Yeah, but I'm gonna be rich. That's the plan, at least until something breaks within me, and I sacrifice my life for yours. Oliver: You read spoiler sites? Anatoly: Nyet. It's just really obvious. Quentin: Wait . . . .you're with Diaz?!? Laurel: Shit, I knew you wouldn't get it after I lost my "COMPLETELY AMORAL" sweater. Also, I'm scared of him. Rene: I'm back, Hoss!! (ten minutes later) Rene: I got shell shock, Hoss!! Diggle: I'm sorry for the way things broke down. Curtis: Wow, that's mighty big of you. [Actually, the character wouldn't say it like that. It would take about twenty secondsfor him to spill that out, with "Should I shut up? I should shut up" being implied] Diggle: You do realize that once Diaz is gone, I'm going to shove those spheres down your throat, right? You shut down my damn arm. Curtis: Yes, of course. And thank you for not saying- Diggle: Hey, I'm the rock of this show. That means I have a little more class. Oliver: I'll break your fuckin' neck!! Diaz: Knife beats headlock!!!! Anatoly: Soooooooo conflicted. Diaz: You know, fuck the whole "loser leaves Star City" thing. Oliver: That's awfully genero- Diaz: Nah, I'm gonna have my corrupt cops arrest you, put on a trial in a kangaroo court, and send you to prison while I run Star City all but officially. Oliver: How have you gotten this far?!? Diaz: I think the less motivation and personalility a villain has on this show, the further he gets. Damien and Prometheus were awesome compared with me. Felicity: Holy smokes, I still exist! William: Me too! Do we still get paid for seven seconds of screentime? Oh, and Rene's daughter knows about her dad's alter ego, and she's okay with it. "It" being "shooting dudes." Political implications aside, how is that unique? At least use non-lethal ordinance or something, Hoss.

Most of the latest episode was focused on Colt, as he joins the supreme Hunters and watches the Queen die. He really didn't think the newborn King (Newman? Neuman?) would treat her that way. She dies, and Colt finds a teeny tiny fetus in her womb. I dunno what's creepier: the fetus, or Colt getting flashbacks from the kid that was fed to the Queen to make him, Oh, and the fetus might be the kid's sister reincarnated. Thanks, Japan!! Meanwhile, Gon snaps out of his funk, and he and Killua chat with one of Kite's kids, whose odds of dying a horrifying death went up as she told the boys her story. Also, a bunch of Chimera go off on their own, and the Royal Family start their invasion.

@Galileo908 . . . one day, we need to meet. There's a lot of overlap between us. Why wait until NYCC? I don't remember if anything got changed from what was screened. Core concept: Archer is still in a coma, still dreaming, imagining he's Patrick Warburton's character from "Heart of Archness." Seriously, the plane couldn't be anything but "Loose Goosey"? Also, most of the characters have changed from "Dreamland," save for Malory being an aurotarian bitch and Cheryl being a nutjob.This time, we have Ivy from "Deadly Prep." Well, I'm assuming, because he's "the fourth." I'll understand if Trexler and Barry don't show up, even though they are recurrent pains in Archer's ass (Trexler as a paternal candidate; Barry for basically being Barry). Krieger-as-parrot/macaw? Inspired. I dig how it's basically Krieger . . . but as a bird. I mean, the mad scientist shit is probably gone, and the German background goes to Cyril/Fuches, but Krieger is still Krieger, albeit as Crackers. While I'm hoping the final season adheres to the series' reality we've grown accustomed to, I reckon "Danger Island" will be a blast.

FXX airs the season opener twice tonight, followed by two classics from the first season: "Honeypot" (the one where Archer tries to get a man interested in him) and "Skorpio" (the one with Lana and Archer in danger, and the rest of the gang hanging out at Krieger's Fort Kickass).

*zzzzzzzzzzzzz* *mimimimimimi* *zzzzzzzzzzzzz* *mimimimimimi* #StoogesSnoring Still not feeling it. Still not telling most of these people apart. Sucks that Angie picked the wrong choice. At this point, why not put idols in all three places, and tell her there's a chance of failure? Bright side: Donathan gets an idol, and we get to hear the tale of Fugly Scot Pollard (a guy so ugly, the second "t" fled his name) expecting Tai to give him the power of Super Idol, only for Tai to let him down. The note said "betrayal," I say "awesome moment in Survivor history." I know, Tai bugged now and then, but he should get love for fucking over Scot (and Fugly Kyle Jason as well).

I'm recording and watching the next day. Therefore, I'm not really invested, as I watch and go online. I get up before 6, so I try not to watch stuff through 11. I'd do that for the "regular" edition right now. I will say that I'm good with the scaled-down/low-rent missions. One, this is for charity. Two, I don't think anybody at BMP wants another injury after Jenna. Human shuffleboard? Okay, I can dig. Ditto with the elimination, though watching Brook get the win over "Killer Kam" is blah. Not like I want them to bang into each other like musk oxen on cocaine, but its still . . . meh. Once again: not really invested. Louise playing Wes' game . . . .she does know it rarely works, right? Then again, there's no Johnny to thwart the strategy, so she might have more luck. "Oh, wow, somebody is impersonating my father in front of me. I never expected that." Also surprised BMP didn't pipe in the theme music Brooke's dad used back in the day after she beat Kam.

I've been talking a lot, and I was feeling like I was inching closer to meeting up with a few of them. But they haven't answered back in the last few days. It's probably nothing to worry about, but given the lack of social life I have, I'm a little unnerved.

All-Star Special to air on May 17.

My condolences, @Poohbear617. I watch the show early in the morning now that I’m working. More cringy: the imaginary dandruff or Melanie not wanting contact. Oh, those Fox talking heads praising her was painful to watch.

Reminder for anyone who needs it: this is on FXX, not FX. Also, I saw this at NYCC in October, or at least a preliminary version. Very funny stuff. ?

I'd like to think so. After the Allens leave, she probably grabs a cushion and laughs hard into it, because who doesn't know Barry is the Flash at this point? What's worse: Oliver Queen being emotional most of the time, or Barry trying to push it down deep? ETA: For anybody who doesn't watch Legends of Tomorrow (no judgement) and didn't see Leo in the two episodes after CoEX . . . here's a picture of his way of getting that team to cope with the death of Prof. Stein. Creepily funny, right?
