Looks good. I would honestly be happier with MCU bringing out streaming series instead of the films. I think more actors would get behind the idea due to the changing landscape of the market.

Seriously, this is what passes for news? I wonder if there's any headlines on the tweet about his interest in serial killers.

Well, the actors who played them at least.

China might be able to bring in 100 million, but the only thing this movie will save is production costs for Disney, not theaters or theatre. There are already endless movies to distract us on the market, so I can wait these new productions out.

Given that Thanos has traveled the galaxy, it's not difficult to imagine him finding heavily irradiated metals with a greater density than vibranium. The force of his strikes are likely multiple times that of Captain America's also. Anyone he hit would have likely been crushed, but you have to consider that vibranium absorbs kinetic energy, reducing the impact of those strikes.

I would love to see it on the big screen but think flocking to theaters is a bad idea. We're creating scenario's ensuring the pandemic will continue for momentary financial gain. Then we'll be back to lock downs again. People think this is going to go away, but it's dormant in most that are infected, studying our behavior & adapting like a computer virus. Has anyone here seen the series Travelers? It's about the human consciousness traveling through time into different hosts like Quantum Leap. They use tech made from graphene to communicate & nano particles called nanites that can be programmed to heal the body at accelerated rates. Just imagine if this tech was available & programmed to kill people instead. Oddly enough, I just cam across this article about health Canada recalling masks containing graphene nano particles in Quebec. https://www.cp24.com/news/health-canada-recalls-masks-containing-graphene-as-it-assesses-risks-to-people-1.5373556 Ryan Reynolds just starred in a movie Free Guy about a banker discovering that he's living in a videogame & recently posted a picture of his vaccination with the caption "Finally got 5G". Sounds like science fiction right, but an idea is only fiction until we understand the practical applications of those thoughts. It's publicly know that several deadly coronavirus variants have hit China over the past 20 years & coincidentally, this happened after Meng Wanzhou's arrest & Huawei's being blocked from the 5G networks. I can't help but wonder if this could be a targeted attack & with those previous outbreaks being controlled experiments on their own population. If we accept the numbers China is reporting, it seems odd that they've been able to control the outbreak at it's source to the extent that they have, especially in such a densely populated country in what many consider overworked conditions. They're modeling themselves as a country that the world should look up to with their control over the outbreak. Should we all just take our medicine & be good zombie's?

Interesting, I wonder if this is where Marvel got the concept of relating Hydra to oppressive regimes from? Wikipedia says the name "Hydra" is an allusion to the mythical Lernaean Hydra, but that is a multi headed snake, whereas Marvel generally show a hexopus with a skull for a head.

Damn, inflation will make it impossible to afford homes without investing in comics at this rate!

I predict a lot more keys passing through kings hands. Keep an eye out for updates. Congratulations on the sale Roy & your purchase Greg, it's always exciting to see keys of this caliber on the boards.

I think someone would give it to Roy instead! Canada's comic king.

I can just imagine Snyder doing a prequel called Apokolips, portraying Darkseid's view of events that unfolded in that original battle.

I didn't think it was very practical for Barry to rescue a few hotdogs before Iris, but I liked when he said we're going to save the world with the power of love. It would have been perfect if they had that song from Back to the future cue in at that moment.

It's another subtle mention of how Egyptian's understood the properties of resonance to manipulated forces like our modern tech does.

Would it be progressive to call women wo-sapiens, since men is incorporated into the word? What about human, female, etc...? Where do we draw the line? Should sexes be referred to as completely different species? This isn't progressive at all, it's regressive. I think this is just a new way to confuse & divide people through modern fundamentalism. Another argument I can put forward is that since women have the extra X chromosome, the X added to the title could also be appreciated as a feminine aspect, rather than simply a mutation.

I like how the season starts with Chester hypothesizing the universe as a cosmic neural network.

Disney would have been better off turning this into a streaming series instead. How can they expect to make money in the current market without streaming? BW would need to make 500 million in China to bring in 125 for Disney but I'd say more likely 50 - 100 max & 200 - 400 worldwide. It will definitely hold the film back from the majority of their subscribers for months though, while likely barely bringing in enough to make theater viewing worth while. They should really reconsider their approach, because losing memberships over these issues could cost them more than they'd make in theaters now anyways. I think WB is taking the right approach by giving their audience the option to view it at home or in the theater. Pushing your audience to theaters for a Superhero movies to make money in a pandemic doesn't seem very heroic, especially since they have a safe alternative to offer.

I'm looking forward to season 2 after watching the first.

I'm watching The Da Vinci Code now, so I'll probably have more mind bending thoughts tonight. I just can't seem to help myself.

I think that the life & anti life equations are the same. It's just a matter of understands that other people's actions & words have influence over us. You just have to choose which side you follow. I know a lot of people thought WW84 was a lemon, but I think that's what they were trying to convey. We're constantly being monitored & directed through modern technology like rats in a maze, but we can get our freedom back by waking up to those facts & giving up the lies they promise us.

I didn't realize this was being viewed as entertainment. I'll try to crack more jokes. I'm sure scientists get excited by watching proteins grow in insect cells, so I guess it's all relative.

Do they have a shot of the equation without Darkseid in the way? I suppose this would be the equation that keeps everyone enslaved with a hive mind. It's interesting to note the sauwastika, which symbolizing night or tantric aspects of Kali. The trident represents Shiva, but here it's probably identified with Aquaman. I'm looking forward to this & will probably watch a few of Snyder's other films as well.

I was just quoting what the news posted & it said the proteins were grown in insect cells. These COVID-19 vaccines haven't been tested for significant amount of time either. I wasn't talking about the entire history of vaccines though. I'm not saying that they don't have any uses either, but relying on vaccines or injections will never cure you. Understanding why people develops these diseases & changing our behavior can help though. Wouldn't you agree that people deserve to know what's in these vaccines & how those ingredients effect their bodies long term? Knowing that chickenpox can lay dormant & manifest as shingles decades after infection, don't we have the responsibility to ask these questions?

The only way I imagine people feeling safe enough to flock into theaters again, is if someone came out with speakers that can disrupt many Covid variants & were required to wear them during screenings. They're acting like it's business as usual, but we know better.

It just sounds like they're scrambling to find answers & keep people calm, but know that COVID-19 mutates faster than they can create vaccines to fight it. What's the point in vaccines if they're practically useless to fight the virus by the time they're administered? If we learn to take better care of ourselves & our immune systems, it would be more effective.

What do you think creates EM waves? What do you consider a medium? When I speak, sound travels through air & a vacuum sucking up that air & altering their vibrations, doesn't mean those vibrations don't travel.
