What's your beef with TLOU2? From what I recall it was received very positively for the most part.

Was Chuck Unfair on Suder?

I'm going to give an explanation for folks who may not have seen the relevant Voyager episodes/reviews: Lon Suder was one of the few recurring side characters of Voyager who appeared in multiple episodes prominently, similar to Barkley from TNG. Unlike Barkley, Suder was not a loveable genius with s...

Re: Marvel's Broken Timeline

Magneto. WW2 Holocaust survivor. In 2022 he would have to be knocking on the door of 100 years old. You cannot keep this guy aging. You could do some hocus pocus and make him immortal like Nick Fury, but that's about it. And the problem is, I think that the X-Men would be greatly diminished without...

Re: Marvel's Broken Timeline

2. Do you think things would overall be better now if Marvel HAD continued in the tradition of Stan Lee and other Marvel writers, allowing characters to grow as they once did? This reminds me of the 'Batman should kill the Joker' debate both of which to me just miss a fundamental point about comics...

Re: Marvel's Broken Timeline

1) When characters were old enough out-of-world that their stories would change dramatically if they were that age in-world. 2) That would eventually end with the characters dying, I note. The real heart of the question, though, is this: would that be better or worse for the mainline comics to just...

Marvel's Broken Timeline

After having revisited a large number of early Marvel comics (Spider-Man, Iron Man etc), I’ve noticed something kinda funny/odd about Marvel Comics; Nowadays comic fans are used to the idea of the “sliding timescale” Marvel and DC use, where even if a specific date is used for a story, it’s retconne...

No More Voyager?

Just saw the latest episode of the Opinionted Episode Guide on Voyager, and... huh. The review was fine, as usual, but it felt a little underwhelming. It was just... another review. It got to me, but only because at the start, he said this is the last Voyager review he had to cover. The fact it's ju...

Re: What Happened to Age of Ultron videos?

heyup, I was going to revisit a couple of videos which had been posted publicly on Chuck's site a while back, reciews of the Age of Ultron comics. Apparently they'd previously been Patreon exclusive when they were first made, but got put up for general viewing after a while. For some reason, they'r...
