#FantasticFour was good, very Americana & a fun ride that evry1 should enjoy. The story was well written & because it is set on an alt Earth (no spoiler there), it works A few slow parts, but the creative team quilted together a tale that stands alone if not for our need for more fabric in the MCU

If we don’t get a Jim Henson Company produced Monster Cereal Halloween special then what’s the point

A few new McFarlane #SuperPowers at Target #ActionFigureOneShot

I’ve never seen this version of “Lost in Space”. It just never interested me because i wasn’t necessarily a fan of the syndicated reruns on tv as a kid. I was a #StarTrek & #StarWars fan. But is it any good? #LostInSpace pre-Trek youtu.be/X19rPM4_ZfA

Is #Bluesky dead and/or ‘dying’; or just stranded? @bsky.app

So the Prime Deals just keep on giving, lol!!!! No way anyone up-selling these hard to find McFarlane Super Powers action figures when the random stumble upon may perchance yield $10.99 at Walmart or Target. Highway robbery!

Name a group of fictional characters whose name could also double as that of a rock band I’ll start: The Lone Gunmen

Know this. For every post or reply that I come across blaming climate change on some malevolent scheme by enigmaticly evil corporate scientists and engineers with some infernal, weather-making engine I will respond with a gif of Destro laughing. That is all.

So my #Blokees #Transformers experience continues w/ a Classic Class #OptimusPrimal (Beast Mode). I picked this one up in Geneva, IL at a fun spot called #HobbyTown. Lots of cool stuff for the hobbyist including R/C, model kits, trains, slot car racing, etc. Great price-point on these Transformers

Common folks are fighting to preserve #life, #liberty & the #PursuitOfHappiness for everyone who walk on U.S. soil; & there are those who are fighting tooth & nail to thwart that true & just work; to continue chiseling at a fragile #peace & #democracy. This #FourthOfJuly, which one will you be?

America Chavez - Ramona Fradon

Look who just appeared on our #Google TV Picture Frame. A @wilfredotorres.bsky.social illustrated #Superman as portrayed by Christopher Reeve! See y’all next weekend at the movies!

Just learned that over 2000 credits with Regal Theaters expired 5 days ago. I’m not a fan of “use by one year for now” expiration dates on these. Especially if you are theater going less and less and when you do go want to support it. I want to keep those points indefinitely, lol!

Crazy that in this era of social media politics and court of public opinion, Paramount and CBS to concede on this thing. On an interview that Trump did not like. Paramount to Pay Trump $16 Million to Settle ‘60 Minutes’ Lawsuit www.nytimes.com/2025/07/02/b...

I’m not a fan of Disney+ model for rolling out these #Marvel shows nowadays. Either drop the entire episode run or release them one weekly episode at a time as in the past. Disney+ is not Netflix. There was one time the streamer prided itself on that distinction. Weekly drives more conversation

NECA Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Cartoon Ultimate Shredder is back in stock at Target if you still need ($34.99) - bit.ly/3Y7OeaR #ad

Anyone waking up to the dark side of coffee? #StarWars at #HomeGoods

Post yourself from another era. Christmas… 1984?

Ross Dress For Less is crazy for this, lol! $26.99?! These action figures usually retail for $19.99 at Target I think. @rossdressforless.bsky.social

As of Episode 3, the #Ironheart suit’s Ai N.A.T.A.L.I.E. is becoming a more likable character than RiRi herself. That’s not a bad thing, but the “haunted armor” trope here is growing on me and in general has been a fun thing across literature.

Decide: Beach Head or Beachcomber? #GIJoe #Transformers

The idea that racing is gaining popularity amongst young women 18-25 is not lost on me. One of my niece’s best girlfriends has been a racing fan since middle school (they’re both seniors in the fall). I hope she’s able to go see #F1.

Regarding the new #StreetFighter movie casting. We live in a world now where filmmaking opportunities abound for correcting past mistakes around movie casting & cultural appropriation. Yet we continue to whitewash Asians from their own stories.

Return for a moment to your K-3 (American primary grades avg. 5-8 years of age) self. What were the gateways to wonder & fantasy of your fandom? I’ll begin: Super Friends Star Wars / Kenner Star Trek & Batman ‘66 reruns Superman ‘78 WW Spider-Man Incredible Hulk Coloring Books MEGO The Hobbit ‘77

One of the plot points seemingly left on the cutting room floor in the flusterkluck btwn MCU & #Marvel TV divisions were Life Model Decoys or LMDs. Intro’d during the story continuity of #AgentsOfSHIELD, the #LMD/Chronicom could’ve been a perfect bridge for Coulson’s return & #NickFury’s solo series

Name the best “hype men” in American entertainment pop culture. I’ll start: Flava Flav

Tried my best to avoid much of any commentary on #Marvel’s #Ironheart on Disney+. So far 22 min in I’m enjoying it. I’m curious though. The seeming direction that the MCU is going w/ RiRi could’ve been perfect for another character: #theBeetle Abner Jenkins. But he’s a #Spidey foe from Sony comics

Mister T Chuck Norris: Karate Kommandos The Karate Kid Which one?

#Marvel’s Contest of Champions gameplay from last night, lol!

Where is the Mad Monster Party? #ActionFigureOneShot

Amy Pond & Mrs. Fletcher are on the hunt for “The Wolf Man”! #ActionFigureOneShot

Star Trek Star Wars Alien Predator Dr. Who Sci-fi/fantasy/horror franchises that have spanned decades & together spawned more content than the avg. dystopian futures of most. I’d add Godzilla, Planet of the Apes & Jurassic Park, but they most fall into monster and/or action-adventure franchises imo

I’ve got to check out #Duster on Max. ‘Sawyer’ has always been my pick for #GreenArrow in DC’s film universe. I love watching Josh Holloway since ‘Lost’. My 2nd character for Holloway has been as #MCU’s #GhostRider ( #JohnnyBlaze). Would love to see him as ‘Evel Knievel’ turned Spirit of Vengeance

I settled on a #NECA ‘Toony Terrors’ #Universal Monsters #WolfMan, lol! Adventures at #Target when I know I shouldn’t be here (hush, hush). I’ve been wanting one for awhile & should’ve got him near the end of 2024 when I 1st saw them. Lon Chaney Jr. toon replica #Monsterverse #ActionFigureOneShot

Hasbro #GIJoe Classified Series Frag Viper and McFarlane DC Multiverse ‘Nightmaster’ action figures at Target. Contemplation right now is huge. But talking with a floor worker who was marking up the prices, she witnessed dollar here dollar there increases over time just as much as many of us have.

Novels, novellas & short stories (literature in general) are all important. Some of the greatest novels have been transformed into film franchise icons that’ve spawned billions of dollars. #Jaws (1975) represents some of the best of these (based Peter Benchley’s 1974 novel). Happy 50th anniversary!

Quote post with the #Batman comic book that was released the month you turned 10! First cameo appearance of Killer Croc Detective Comics #523 (FEB 1983) Ed Hannigan (pencils) & Hannigan/Dick Giordano cover art w/ Gerry Conway (writer)

It really amazes me that we put astronauts on the moon over 50 years ago & continued to conduct space missions (not w/o tragedy) prior to & long after the first shuttle missions. The “failures” at Space X simply reveal how hard it is actually to rocket off into space, especially w/o human casualties

Tonight's movie. It's been all over my feed for several days and it came out when I was 14, so I'm obligated to rewatch. (I don't need to hear any negative reviews in my comments, thank you.)

#WhatIf?! David Tennant returned as Kilgrave aka Purple Man? Explainer would be that though Jessica Jones broke his neck during the Netflix series, an innate (unknown) healing factor kicked in. In time he’d find himself revived, but different; hue of his skin now purple. Would hide until right time

In a different universe, Tisha Campbell portrayed Tootie on “The Facts of Life” and Kim Fields eventually portrayed Gina on “Martin!”. Campbell would go on to play Regine on “Living Single”, lol!

Gonna Go With Hank (Beast)

#Blanka from #StreetFighter II vs. #XMen’s Hank McCoy aka #Beast #WhoWouldWin?

David Ramsey portrayed John Diggle in the #Arrowverse. When he donned a helmet to become Spartan (S4:E1), seeds were already planted by fans like me for him to become a G.L. There was a brief Hal Jordan cameo. Yet, Diggle was not John Stewart. That was until Ernie Hudson played his step-dad (S7:E19)

At a time when the Arrowverse needed an Iron Man, they called up an Atom. Brandon Routh portrayed Ray Palmer, the size-changing Justice Leaguer whom in personality & tech leanings here seemed more like an amalgam of Tony Stark & Ted Kord aka Blue Beetle. He did well, but I really wanted him to be BB

This would have huge repercussions in Quebec. What say you? youtube.com/watch?v=_DyA...

OK hear me out. This iteration or Police Squad/The Naked Gun feature Liam Neeson as Frank Drebin Jr. #WhatIf?! He was an inter-dimensional, personification of #Mayhem like DCComics’ #Mxzyptlk? I’m reaching for straws, but many of the gags and potential 4th wall breaks here seem very magical
