    The Boys

    I don’t think it was out of nowhere. They’ve always implied that she was very, very strong. She just doesn’t have Homelander’s other powers. It’s obviously a parallel to Superman and WW. WW is pretty strong but just a notch weaker than Supes.

    Evidently Cooper is pretty loaded on his own, not to even mention the rest of the family money.

    Top Gun 2

    Wasn’t there some explanation that the radar jamming tech the “enemy” would render new jets blind in this mission?

    The Baylor Safety at the end even looks confused as to how it wasn’t a TD.

    He throws with both hands? Never seen that before.

    Is he done with it yet? That place has the biggest sandwiches I’ve ever seen. I ordered a Turkey Sandwich and I swear it had about two pounds of meat on a slice of bread.

    I think the casting off Fett is one of the main issues. He’s just a bad actor. They also wrote his whole story weirdly. This version of Fett has none of the presence or mystery of what we imagine of three original character. Plus he’s generally inept. Basically Fennec Shand tells him what to do at every point and he just grimaces at her and then agrees. In my head, Fett was ruthlessly competent. He should have been battling demons of his past as he tries to go more legit but it feels like the character is just bouncing around without a plan and then waiting for Shand or Mando to tell him the plan. His character didn’t really develop or change at all once he left there Tuskens.

    Rodriguez is terrible. His action directing is just laughably bad. Seriously. It's awful and stilted and lacking any emotion. Give Bryce Dallas Howard more episodes. I literally can't understand how people think Rodriguez is good at this point. I'm no military strategist, but when you have two people who can fly and an armored personel carrier, I don't think the best strategy is to all be huddled together on the ground in a 10 foot radius. The huge strategic maneuver they accomplished was "someone should be on the roofs to snipe." Also, when there are tanks roaming the streets and people being gunned down by automatic weapon fire, you decide to cut to three street merchants selling yams? Like, did they think they were going to sell yams to the spider tank?

    The technology is moving fast too. In another year that tech will be better than it is now. Together with the better deep fake work on this last episode foretells some interesting times for actors ahead. We could conceivably add onto stories where the actors have aged out of the roles. We're already doing it to a degree with movies like The Irishman and some of the other youthing technology in Marvel movies and such. I think what they should do with that respeech technology is do a similar Deep Fake type implementation where it "translates" a current actor's voice acting and overlays the synthesized voice on top of it to pick up intonation and pace. I'm interested in the legal aspect of it.

    They didn’t give Boba one line in the whole episode, which is fine by me. Mando is awesome.

    They played that song at the Father/Daughter Girl Scouts dance one year. I hadn’t paid attention to lyrics either until then.

    There’s been a lot of talk about how much Sebastian Stan resembles young Mark Hammill. He really does and he’s already in the “family.

    The machines could have avoided all that trouble by just using cats instead of humans. They have a higher body temperature, they reproduce in much greater numbers, happily live in higher density and can be kept obedient with catnip rather than a massive supercomputer to run a constant simulation. Why bother with humans at all? The Catrix.

    Fuck, Holden! Just kill the bastard.

    Really? I don't find him menacing at all nor particularly charismatic. He just doesn't strike me as a guy who can rally people around a cause. Maybe it's just me. The speeches he's given on the show just seem like a guy yelling out his lines.

    I never really liked the casting for Marco Inaris. He was worse in this first episode than before I think.

    Jeez. That film is nuts. What classification does he play in? It’s literally just a film of touchdowns.

    Captain Crunch was engineered to cause the maximum number of canker sores possible.

    Yeah. She’s gorgeous. She’s also like 6’7”.
