Earth 3 Marvel fam and associates ideas
Okay so, context, Earth 3 is a mess. I’ve already had a headache realizing their Wonder Woman is apparently Lois and yet somehow Donna exists there too so bear with me, I’m just making shit up for this mess of a universe that’s just the dystopian “Heroes are villains and everything sucks” world DC pulls random threats from.
So, the main Thing™️ with Earth 3 is that things are reversed morally, the heroes are villains and vice versa. So if we account the still existing Marvel Family characters then all the villains for that world are Billy, Mary, Freddy, Uncle Dudley, Tawny, and The Wizard. I won’t include the other Shazamily siblings of Darla, Pedro, and Eugene bc DC doesn’t give them enough character to be swapped properly and they didn’t get to be heroes for a long time, this is more pre-2011 Marvel Fam based with the consistent characters form then that still exist now.
That means that the villains/anti-heroes of the family are as follows would be the Earth 3 heroes or do-gooders. Black Adam, Satanus, Blaze, the Sins, Sivana, and other miscellaneous rogues from their gallery.
So, ideas as I have them for this swap.
Historically for this switch The Wizard and the powers of Shazam (or Mazahs but I’ll keep using Shazam for simplicity’s sake) were inherently given to bad people, so it’s probably closer to some cabal of evil gods or demons who started the Shazam legacy with The Wizard and lived as tyrants or general evil villainous wizards until we got to modern day with Billy. His history swap would stem into his backstory too, making his parents less lovable as greedy archaeologists and his uncle Ebenezer not kick him out but instead probably do his best raising a horrible child, so Billy wouldn’t be homeless, he’d be a brat. Mary would also still be with Billy, some part for simplicity’s sake in the universe but also bc of Theo changes.
Another historical change would have to be Theo and Black Adam, who would switch to being good people apropos to their villain and anti-hero standings. Instead of taking the scarab necklace in the tomb for selfish reasons Theo would take it to preserve a historical relic and, in self defense, kill the Batsons as a role reversal of that situation and run away. If Mary is there he doesn’t kidnap her this go around, just sends her home to her kindly uncle Ebenezer and goes to his boss Sivana asking for help legally bc he literally just murdered two people. Cue The Wizard begrudgingly having to pass his powers onto someone new because either his benefactors demand new hosts or because of a selfish legacy reason and chooses the vile Batson twins to be his Champions of Villainy. Cue the renaming of Captain Billy and Scary Mary (names taken from what apparently was a prototype name for Captain Marvel and the YJ tv shows name for an evil Mary used to be the villain names two kids would come up with)
Theo then realizes the power of the scarab necklace and uses it to gain the powers of his ancestor, Black Adam, who was a cruel tyrant of a king the Wizard sought to make his earthly pawn but was reformed into being an agent of good by this universes Lady Blaze (who in this context would be the daughter of an Angel of sorts instead of a demon) and fought against the Wizard instead which led to his imprisonment in the necklace. Theo is beat by Billy and Mary who slit his throat personally to stop him from ever calling on the powers again and throw him in prison for the murder of their parents with him unable to claim self defense with no word to go against a dead couples. Double down on the bastardization of the Batson twins by making them tearfully make accounts of Adams villainy and desire to hurt their folks to make sure he stays out of their hair.
The Sins and Blaze are easy switches, you just make them the Seven Heavenly Allies of Humanity/ the Virtues and make Blaze and Satanus angel-kin with the minor name change of Satanus to something less Satan-sounding, like after a Saint or other angel. Sivana simply becomes a good scientist who still has two good children and two bad children, they’re just swapped. Beautia and Magnificus are cruel, spiteful people while Georgia and Thad Jr. are much more like their father and want to make things better in the horrible world they live in. Black Adam would closer resemble some prophet or elected official trying to save a land without a hero in Khandaq, leaning into the Anti-Heroism by trying to make Khandaq isolationist and use his magic to keep villains out by force or at the cost of his own life.
What wouldn’t change for any of them— Billy, Mary, Sivana, and Adam— is an overwhelming sense of family and the need to protect it. Billy and Mary would be upset their parents died more so because those are their parents and would be protective of the other more so in a “That’s my family” way than a “That’s my family” way. Sivana still loves his kids and Adam still loves his home.
Back to associates, Freddy and Dudley would also be swapped but Freddy more so into being a horrible person. As a part of the ensemble rogues gallery Krieger would be... well, what he is. Instead, Freddy would be more like him with those ideals while being a lackey for Billy and Mary instead of a close friend. And in keeping with the horribleness of the whole universe, he'd back stab them if he could but doing so normally gets his powers revoked and left in chronic pain from his bad leg. Billy and Mary are dangling being "perfect" and "powerful" over his head to get rid of his pain. Like, he's still a bad person but those two are just as bad and bad to him.
Dudley is still a con man, to put it simply, he's just successful at it and malicious in his practice. He's who the twins and Freddy replace the useless Ebenezer with after he "Suffers a terrible and unforeseeable stroke" to let them get their way with things.
Tawny is a maneater. He is a tiger and Captain Billys personal lapcat that happily devours nuisances and gnaws on their bones in the meantime.
Those are my thoughts to actually have some flesh to these versions of them, take the ideas as you please or tell me what you think about this!

I was watching Qatar 2014 and Nick Harris is like is Marc’s leg gonna start playing up and I was like oh is he injured and the nick was like yeah spiral fracture of the right tibia so of course I had to research about it and it takes 4 to 6 months to heal 18 months if it’s bad and Marc’s like no 6 weeks and then I’ll ride a bike in a sport that requires me to use a lot of leg strength in corners and I’m like Marc how did you win the opening 10 races with a not properly healed leg and more importantly htf are you walking let alone riding like he is a different breed of insane like they are all insane but im like how do you do this marc i would simply lay in bed for those 4 months cause i don't deal well with pain. but is this how he always was with injuries bar Sepang 2011 cause he couldn't ride even if he wanted to after that one until his vision got better and he had the eye surgery. Sorry this got long but damn i want someone to right a thesis on marc and his way he deals with injuries cause how is he this chill about them like he just answered questions about his injuries with a blank face and i don't know how he does it.
i was rewatching hitting the apex today. as i do. and they were setting up the HUGE theme of injury that’s the film’s axis kind of rotates on (hard to talk about 2013 without mentioning some important collarbones) and there’s an interesting part of it where jorge lorenzo is talking about how he flipped a switch with regards to his fear/regard for injury (when he was a rookie i think). he talks about crashing three times in one weekend and having absolutely no fear about it, and then suddenly sort of realizing that he needed to respect his body (STILL DOES THE ASSEN BROKEN COLLARBONE 500 MIND YOU) and have a little more thought for the danger of what they do (underscored by him talking to the press very articulately and succinctly after him and sic have a moment on track)… he treats it as a fundamental shift in his philosophy regarding his health and the sport, which i think is interesting and revealing, and probably a reaction a lot of riders have at one point in their lives. normal for an extreme athlete as they grow and gain more forethought and experience.
BUT. when later we get to hear him talk about MARC. and jorge’s like. he reminds me of me when i was twenty and you don’t think you’re ever going to die or be injured. he’s young. i was like jesus christ but marc hasn’t. changed that much. like he HAS a LITTLE, and i think injury has really shaken him and he KNOWS he needs to respect his body/be careful. but he still has about 8 moments a weekend where he’s five bombing someone up the inside and they look like they physically want him DEAD this year. started off the year assuring the ducati boss he would limit crashes and he’s had TWO DNFS. in three race weekends. and like i don’t think either of those were really his fault but uh. yeah that’s marc !
and i think it’s so interesting disciplined ass jorge just. decided to learn and apply that lesson. case closed. like he’s not perfect at it (collarbone….) but who is in this sport— he still noticeably changed. while marc was forcibly and horribly “taught” that lesson in the most gruesome, protracted way possible, and i’m still not sure he’s entirely internalized it AT ALL !

tuesday again 1/9/2024
the BEAST (phil) has been SPAYED
listening
my sister ALSO, INDPENDENTLY, keeps tuesdayesqe lists in the back of her planner! which is what i used to do before these posts! You Got A Man by JAWNY is off her 2023 playlist. this philly artist's claim to fame seems to be that he dated doja cat for six months? the song is short, bratty, and fun indie/alt not-quite-rap. i have no knowledge of how much the man overlaps with the song. spotify
youtube

reading
ive never watched supernatural, except by osmosis bc i signed up for this website in 2011. this book is what i imagine people say when they say "what if supernatural was good?"
Rebecca Roanhorse's Trail of Lightning (her debut) and Storm of Locusts takes Maggie, a typical lone hero/monster hunter/horrible bitch of a woman (i say this approvingly) and says listen! you can do way sicker shit if you like. accept help and community and have a support system. it does not read like booktok found family or approach this in the typical fanfic way, which is refreshing. it points out that you will be a much longer lived and successful monster hunter this way. this is optimization, if you really look at it.
Tumblr media
most postapoc stuff doesn’t contend with the fact (if it even acknowledges indigenous people at all) that indigenous people have already lived through several colonizing apocalypses. these books make a very sharp point that there is not a tremendous amount of difference between the reservation before the apocalypse and the reservation after the apocalypse. the worldbuilding in these is a interesting spin on sea levels plus the Energy Wars, to keep all of that at arms' length the Diné built a magical and physical wall, which i think is a funny spin on the trump border wall.
neither of them are really romance or kissing books, there is romantic interest but they are kept extremely busy not dying and admiring each other's competence. they are action and gore heavy. this is notable bc the books are fairly short (took me about two and a half hours each) and they have pretty fuckin good action scenes! the first book has an underground club and fight ring run by a cat god: club atmosphere was terrific (there's a bit about them having to drag in hastily camouflaged cheap walmart tables to handle some overflow and i instantly knew exactly the table), it had a dress up scene I was very weak to. i thought the series of events by which they ended up at the big boss battle post-club was kind of stupid but (forgivably) the big boss battle was quite enjoyable. figuring out what to do with your life next when you’re highly trained for a very specific thing but also not trained enough to be a serious danger and were set up to fail was extremely compelling to me, an astronomy major who cannot actually work in astronomy.
Tumblr media
second book really hits its stride and (girl who has only played fallout voice) feels very fallout-y. desperate quest to save a loved one. girls' trip through a bunch of weird places with a bunch of weird guys. there's a lot of references that play with tone without ever going HEY REMEMBER THIS OTHER WORK YOU COULD GO LOOK AT RIGHT NOW? there’s a plane and a weird guy that made me think of mad max thunderdome, except the weird guy is his own character and has his own arc. there’s a weird grandpa on a boat who i don't think is a reference at all, except maybe to the timeless genre of weird grandpas on boats. there’s a sentient casino trapping people inside that reminded me of the new vegas dead money expansion, except Maggie barely steps inside bc she immediately gets caught up in a day-long battle of wits against the god of gambling. Maggie is a little more settled in her own skin now that she’s regularly talking to other people and has rejoined her community in her own small ways on her own terms and it HAS made her a much more successful monster hunter. the dialogue is snappier, the action scenes are more elaborate and smoothly choreographed. it's nice to watch an author grow so quickly (from this is serviceable to oh SHIT this is fun) over the course of a duology :) this feels like it was meant to be a trilogy but this book came out in 2019 so i am not holding my breath. it has a nice solid endpoint right here imo.
past sexual violence is sort of orbited around but no sexual violence is actually depicted, which i appreciate as a woman trying to enjoy postapoc.
libby has a very helpful Indigenous Voices category/reading guide/thing. thank u libby now i want to read everything else she's ever written

watching
saw a piece of fanart i cannot find now for the three minute short PUPARIA by Shingo Tamagawa.
Something is about to change drastically. We can only be witnesses to it.
youtube
it's a weird and stunningly beautiful little thing i am still worrying at like a dog with a peanut butter kong. if you have a thing about eyes or clusters of round shapes this is NOT the three minute short for you btw
-
playing
the free epic game was the Eidos Montreal Guardians of the Galaxy game, and since i am allergic to dead moms i will not be playing it. widely reviewed as "good writing, but not very much fun to actually play" so i don't feel like i'm missing out on too much.
youtube
i have no good story to tell about my time with genshin this week. we're aiming for "can i turn my brain off for forty minutes in the evening" and grinding a lot of one specific boss while listening to podcasts does seem to be enough to turn my brain off.
-
making
i have been frantically deep cleaning (including soaking the office in enzymatic cleaner [thanks phil]) bc my siblings are coming to town for a couple days and despite several setbacks (a completely different arrival time than the one they told me) and absolutely no sense of an itinerary we will be fine! we will all be fine and have fun! i will be SO fine and calm and chill and we will all have some fucking fun so help us god
ALSO also phil has finally been spayed and is now dealing with four separate issues: the giant wound still on her side, the spay incision, the necrotic abscess in her mouth from going too hard on a springy toy, and being underweight from trying to heal three things at once. we'll get there! we'll get there. it's just taking a while. we are going to have friday afternoon vet visits every week for the foreseeable future.
i love her so much and i'm glad she's feeling better but i genuinely think owning a horse would be cheaper than owning this one wonky cat. they shaved SO much of her tummy she looks even sillier than usual.
Tumblr media
other than being Very Alert for the persistent little orange tomcat that keeps hopping up on my windowsill, mackie is doing fine. no concept of the fact that my siblings are going to pick her up more in two days than she gets picked up in a whole month. this is a girl that likes her feet on the ground thanks much

Zatanna, Wonder Woman and Barry Allen go undercover in this issue of DC Retroactive: JLA- The 70's #1 (2011) and Diana is absolutely terrible at it:
Tumblr media
For those who don't know DC Retroactive are untold stories set in past continuities mostly by writers from those eras.
This issue was written by Carey Bates with art by Andy Smith.
(Side note: While Diana being 'bad' at going undercover is just a two page gag, it makes more sense for me that Diana, former 'Goddess of Truth' and wielder of the Lasso of True wouldn't be comfortable with secret identities. I never liked the idea of Diana needing a secret identity. )
The plot of this issue mainly revolves around Adam Strange, who is accidentally transported to Earth Prime following a fight with Kanjar Ro so Barry, Diana, Zatanna and Ollie travel to Earth Prime to rescue him while Hawkman and Green Lantern (Hal Jordan) take on the newly empowered Kanjar Ro.
Earth-Prime is basically "our world" where the JLA are all fictional characters and the writers and creators exist on that earth. It's also the world where Superboy Prime originally came from. Since Adam had his mind zapped at a mental institute, the only solution is to find DC editor and Adam Strange super fan Julius Schwartz who can jog Adam's memory.
I'm not really a fan of creators writing themselves or their collegues into the story. It feels very self congratulatory. Especially since WW's lasso could have solved the whole thing. I much prefer how Marvel did it, like an Easter Egg, where Stan and Jack would sometimes appear as themselves in issues of Fantastic Four. But I guess you can look at this issue as Carey's tribute to Schwartz. This issue also came with a reprint of Justice League of America #123 where Carey Bates wrote himself (or rather his Earth Prime counterpart) as the villain of the story.
Adam Strange himself is a character that I have mixed feelings about. He's very much a product of his time but the ordinary guy with a space suit, jetpack and helmet really appeals to the young boy in me who loved the Rocketeer. I don't think anyone has ever quite figured out how to make him relevant today. Tom King tried in his mini but it was the usual trope of 'lets reveal this innocent Silver Age character is actually a horrible person' variety of reinvention.
Anyway, enough rambling, since this is a Zatanna blog, here is a few moments with her that I like:
-The League chilling on the tower, Diana looks like she is oogling at Zee plus Hal being a Pink Floyd fan:
Tumblr media
-Zatanna and Barry interactions plus Barry taking a leader ship role:
Tumblr media
-This bit about mind wipes:
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
Knowing how much of a nerd Barry is he probably folded inside when she called him boss.
Also while this was most likely an excuse to bring in Julius Schwartz, Zatanna not tampering with minds is more in character for her during this period especially since the arc with her mom also had a subplot of her being mad that her father played with her mind. Another point deducted from Identity Crisis.
Blink and you miss it panels where the artist is clearly showing off their ability to draw human body in perspective:
Tumblr media
And Diana wanting to take a selfie after the League defeats Kanjar Ro:
Tumblr media
(also Diana's clearly a history geek, only a history geeks would drop random facts about Incas completely unprompted):
Tumblr media
Overall, it's an old school issue. Very much a throwback. Still it's noteable that the writer of this issue didn't do the almost obligatory 'Zee gets gagged or taken out early so other characters can shine' plot. Every one has a role and everyone contributes their fair share to help defeat the villain.

I finished Pandora's Tower on Wii U a bit over a week ago. I had set myself a goal to start and finish the game during 2024. The game wholly exceeded my expectations. The atmosphere, story and gameplay were pretty compelling and made me want to keep playing. It took me 35 hours to reach the ending.
Pandora's Tower is originally a Wii game from 2011 and it got a digital re-release on Wii U in 2015. If I try to describe the game, I'd say it's an action RPG with elements of Dark Souls titles (opening up shortcuts, similarities in combat), Zelda titles (solving puzzles to advance in dungeons) and Shadow of the Colossus (figuring out how to make the bosses vulnerable to damage).
Setting was pretty unique and dark. You play as a young man named Aeron. You have to delve into towers to kill their master creatures, then bring back their flesh for your girlfriend Elena to eat in order to break her horrible curse that slowly turns her into a monster. You also have to feed her regularly with monster meat or else she will transform and it's game over. This imposes a time limit for your adventuring gigs.
A round meter at the bottom left corner of the screen indicates the degree of Elena's transformation and tells you when you need to go back to feed her. The time limit aspect was done well even though it was sometimes a bummer to have to return before managing to explore everything or open up the next shortcut. It was a bit stressful too. Once I had to just die in a boss fight because I was running out of time and try again.
I enjoyed the gameplay a lot. Combat was fun with a few options for weapons in addition to the Oraclos Chain that could be used for binding enemies and as the main means of damaging bosses. Gaining experience in battle rewarded Aeron with stat increases. The towers had some light puzzles to solve in order to progress and I think they were rather well-designed. I wish all the 12 towers had unique themes and gimmicks as now the last 6 repeated the first 6 themes. The 13th tower, The Centrum housed the final boss.
I said I enjoyed the gameplay, but it wasn't without frustrations. Camera angles were a hindrance in boss battles at times and aiming the chain was clumsy in hectic situations, especially when it kept snapping to wrong parts. I played using Wii U's GamePad where right stick controls the chain. Ugh, the plant boss that you had to chain into a pole in order to avoid it going back into light to heal up. I was screaming at the screen fighting that one. My usual enemy made an appearance too: inventory space limit.
Characters were pretty nice. I enjoyed seeing Elena change from a religious vegetarian into a meat lover! I was very pleased with the music and the English voice acting surprisingly wasn't grating. The old lady Mavda's design and voice acting reinforced the Dark Souls vibes I got from the game.
The game has 6 possible endings to encourage replaying the last stretch of the game. The bond you form with Elena affects the ending you'll get. Affection is raised by chatting with Elena and giving her gifts. I got the second best ending on my first go and also replayed the final boss to see the best ending.
I think Pandora's Tower is an underappreciated classic long overdue for a Switch port. I'm so glad I got this game before Wii U eShop closed down as this title was truly worth experiencing!

super important tmc hcs. ignoring the fact tht terraria and minecraft both came out in 2011

jonah terraria: almost exclusively plays journey mode! makes it his mission every time to 100% the research catalogue. the collection aspect of it tickles something in their brain minecraft: exclusively plays modded with like 20 different incredibly complicated tech mods tht each have a 200 page user manual . and also tinker's construct. they r a pro at it

All TV series I've ever seen III
1940 - 1970
1980 -2000
2010 - now (this post)
2010 - Mike & Molly
Sitcom with some funny jokes... got lost at season 3 maybe... I don't know.
I know some people can't stand Melissa McCarthy but what I can't stand is the typical jokes of "well she's fat so she has to be eating in every scene or making a big deal about food" as it happens in Ghostbusters.
2011 -Once upon a time
At first I thought it was a silly premise (and maybe it is) but I do like fairytales twisted over and over again to create something new.
I stopped watching around season 5... because I was watching it through Sony (LatAm) and they started to play it dubbed and the voices were horrible.
I should pick it up someday.
2011 - 2 broke girls
Yet another sitcom that sometimes lands and others don't. Good enough to watch when there's nothing else available.
2011 - Person of Interest
A man creates a system (AI?) that can identify a criminals so hires someone to take care of them. I might've watched two seasons... then I lost track.
2013 - The Blacklist
James Spader has one of the best voices in the planet and when he plays a snarky a-hole he's at his best. The first two season were great... then I lost track and all the sudden they are ending the show after 10 seasons. I have a lot to catch up.
2013 - The Goldbergs
I might've been born in 1992 but thanks to mom and my aunts I grew up with in the '80s so this show was made for me... or so I thought. Some things are cringy, once Adam grows up the whole nerdy thing isn't as funny but it's ok... ish.
2013 - Father Brown
You can never be wrong with Chersterton's creation. Altough as all british TV shows it can be a little too slow for my taste.
2016 - Nafta Súper (Argentina)
The whole thing started with a simple question: what would've happened if Superman fell in a poor neighbourhood in Buenos Aires instead of the Kent's farm? This was the premise for Kriptonita a book that presented the DC heroes in their argentinean versions. But beware since they are outlaws and not always do good (but compared to our police they aren't as bad)... it is kinda hard to root for them. I mean Nafta Súper (is the name of a type of gasoline you get here) got his name because whenever he had to meet with other crime bosses he would carry gasoline with him and set them on fire if they didn't agree with his views 🤷🏻‍♀️
The movie was a good enough hit, so the TV show was meant to happen and expand the universe. Each episode focuses in one of the members of the Justice League (El Federico/Batman, Lady Di/Wonder Woman, El Faisán/Green Lantern, Ráfaga/Flash) while they all look for Nafta Súper/Superman that, after the end of the movie, is hiding.
As I said, it is hard to root for them but I have to give it to the creatives with all the clever ways to twist this heroes and villains so they fit in our culture. And I do like El Federico & Corona (Batman and The Joker) they are the highlight of the show for me.
2016 - Анна, детектив (Anna, detective -Russia)
Do you remember Medium? Have you ever thought how it could've been set in the early 1900s in a backwater town in Russia? Well now you don't have to!
Anna Mironova is a young woman that always had psychic abilities but they would come and go during childhood. Now this abilities are back around the same time the Officer Shtolman is assigned to her town.
Sometimes is very VERY telenovela (I am not entirely on board when it happens), each case lasts 2 episodes and I do think that is a bit of a strech. But I do have to recognize that Dimitri Frid (Shtolman) plays a man that is very smitten and deeply in love very well.
You can see it in Youtube in Star Media English (captioned in this language)
2018 - Killing Eve
We all know that the first 2 seasons were the best (we can add the 3rd in it too when we compare it to the 4th). This cat-and-mouse spy thriller started strong mixing dark humour and just darkness and left us all with a bad taste in the last episode. Still Eve and Villanelle will live forever in our hearts.
2019 - Good Omens
An Angel a Demon beeing close friends got 20K christians so angry that they started a pettition to cancel this show adressed to the wrong company. And people still ask me today why I am Agnostic?
The Antichrist was born, the Four Horsemen summoned so it is time to stop the Apocalypse.
Really funny, layered and worth a lot more than just a watch (mom and I watched it about 4 times in less than a year, so... is that good)
2019 - The Mandalorian
At home we were never huuuuuge Star Wars fans (we would watch for Harrison Ford and some creatures). Still, since the premise to this show was that you didn't needed to be a hardcore-fan we gave it a go and we loved it! It's very close to old shows, like Zorro, where you have the adventure-of-the-day kinda plot (that some people just can't dig, don't know why) and I do like good fights on TV/Cinema
Never underestimate the power of Baby Yoda!
2021 - Wandavision
Even if we never read a comic, we did watched most of Marvel movies and we wanted to know what all of this was about.
It's a lot more effective if you already know the shows they pay homage to.
Beware... it will break your heart.
2021 - Falcon & the Winter Soldier
Following the MCU, came the buddy-mov... erm, TV show, buddy-Tv show starred by Falcon and Bucky.
At a moment you might think that there are too many things on the plate (super soldiers, the new & bad Captain America, a black market dealer, Zemo) so some things do feel a little rushed. But well... at least was fun.
2021 - Loki
Don't kill me but I do not understand people's obsession with Loki.
I mean, the mythological god is a thing... but aside from Tom Hiddleston's fans I don't see the appeal of any nordic god in the MCU (as I said, I don't read comics).
The show is ok...
2021 - Hawkeye
Since I'm little I always liked archery and I was curious about this Avenger that is easily lost in the background of the movies.
It is not the greatest show ever made... but at least is less "the world will be destroyed" and that is a good change. Less is more.
2021 - The Book of Boba Fett
Of course after watching Mando I had to follow the story... and yes, he did took over in the last episodes. But still... it was nice seeing Boba Fett's arch that transformed him from a Bounty Hunter to a Leader (???).
Something could be a little bit more explored, but well... we'll see what the future holds for him.
2022 - Our Flag means Death
When I had a glimpse of the trailers (mostly focused on Steede's most feminine traits vs the tough life of a pirate) I was like "yay... another show making fun of a clearly gay character. Awesome. Are we in 1980 again?" But some gifsets in here spiked my curiosity... does the story really shows a romantic relationship between Blackbeard and Steede or this is the fandom beeing fandom once again?
Well... watch and find out!
2022 - Moonknight
I love the Ancient Egypt so this show was for me. I didn't know that there was a superhero based on those myths (nor that he had DID) and I really liked him.
Fingers crossed for a second season... or a movie (once the strike is over, of course).
2022 - Ms. Marvel
I was expecting something more teenage-based but anyone can see Ms. Marvel.
I don't understand why so many hated it... oh wait... Sor Juana said it better "foolish men that accuse the woman without reason..."
2022 - She-Hulk
And odd experiment, I do think that the last episode was kinda cheating but if she breaks the fourth wall... what can we do? 🤷🏻‍♀️
At least they aknowledged some narrative issues that have been dragging for a while.
2022 - The Sandman
Loving this show is an understatement.
Once again, I didn't read the graphic novel with the exceptions of a few panels here and there that I saw many years ago in Facebook (when Morpheus meets The Fates and the baby scene on The Sound of her Wings).
I love when all mythology and fairytales and other myths can be combined into something new. So this was my jam.
Waiting for season 2 (and getting a better paid job so I can buy the books).
2022 - Obi-Wan
Is there anybody in this world that hates Ewan McGregor? I don't think so.
The show was ok... some twists were predictable from the get-go (still some didn't see them coming and got angry at them 🤷🏻‍♀️). But well... everybody wanted Vader vs Obi-Wan and they sure had it!
2022 - Andor
I don't know if living in Argentina absolutely killed the idea of a heroic guerrilla, revolution and such (because we are the spoils of that and, trust me, thinks don't get better. But this is not about argebtinean politics so... moving on)... or it is because in USA is heavily romanticized but... Andor didn't clicked with me.
It was a task watching it and we only finished it because we started it... don't know if we will watch a second season.
2022 - Wednesday
A lot of people say that Tim Burton is overrated (I disagree, I think that he is tired of beeing ask to be Tim Burton, wacky director or weird films) but Wednesday is heavily overrated to me. Really? This has 12 Emmy nominations and The Sandman has zero? What the Bloody Hell?!
I like the Addams Family, I watched the TV show... the movies... this is not the Addams Family. I know, I know... this is about Wednesday blah, blah, blah. But this isn't Wednesday either... this is moody goth teenager with the biggest ego in the room.
Let's leave aside all the character and worldbuilding inconsistencies... Wednesday is a sharp and blunt person but she is never mean without a good point. This Wednesday is cruel even with people that loves her!
Did people forget that the weirdest thing about the Addams Family was that they are weird and they deeply love each other? That was what made them who they are! Instead of having the husband complaining about the wife, you have Gomez. Instead of having the wife trying to have the perfect house scolding her kids for their behaviour , you have Morticia with her own interests aside from beeing a housewife and assists her kids with their passions... I'll stop ranting now or I will never end.
Not a fan of the powers, the story is ok-ish...
2023 - The Last of Us
Never played videogames either and zombies (I'm sorry, infected) are not a big genre at home unless is Michael Jackson's Thriller video. Still we decided to give it a go because Pedro Pascal is latino and you have to support your people... even if they are chileans... or brazilians (argie joke. You wouldn't understand it).
We loved it!
I was ready for mom to complain with "is it necessary to always have gays?" in episode 3 but she didn't... and I dare to say that its one of her favourite episodes. (And no, readers, mom isn't conservative... but she's against tokenism -just like me-. If you want to have diversity in the world you've created, that's awesome... if you are doing it just to check some items off a list, it's annoying and feels like a desperate move)
2023 - The Muppets Mayhem
We love The Muppets but since Jim Henson's death they are kind of a hit-and-miss.
It does get better as it goes... wouldn't say is ✨️the best✨️ Muppets yet... but it is a lot better than the Haunted Mansion from last year (?)
2023 - FUBAR
Did you liked the movie True Lies with Arnold Schwartzenneger and Jaime Lee Curtis? Well... what if we do the same premise but this time his daughter is also a secret agent?
It is still good though... sometimes humor can be a little cringey, but Arnie knows his audience well enough and delivers.
2023 - Secret Inavsion (current)
It is still going so I cannot tell much just yet. Doesn't feel like a spy-thriller as I imagined but we'll see.
