Eh, this is a terrible syndrome, the G.R.R. Martin syndrome, called J.K. Rowling syndrome too: when an author forgotten or decides to change some elements of their story because It would be a problem for the author.

Because Retcons are not totally Evil! I mean, Pinocchio by Carlo Collodi, the novel, had two retcons in the story, cause the audience prayed the writer to continue the story (and Collodi needed money at that time), and Tolkien too made some retcons with The Hobbit. But they advised the audience that they changed the original story, and the audience accepted because After that was published The Lord of the Rings.

Sadly, Di Martino and Konietzko are not good to make retcons. And worse, they retcon for some spin-off and without changing the original plot. Cause It would need Money and the approvation of Nickelodeon, and the producers are not interested.

Their hybris will be thebcause of their fall. The Will of God could be slow, but It touch Who needs It.

I Hope that they will have an Happy Life, especially Konietzko, with many people who will appreciate his illustrations, and even for Di Martino I Hope a future as director.

But I Hope that they will lost AtlA's rights and responsabilities, and they could see their Retcons cancelled, beginning by LoK and the comics, with new reboots.

With the full knowledge that what they made was mediocre, without other Easy escapings from their responsabilities.

I’ve seen a lot of posts, and now I want to try to rewrite things from the new comic, but I don’t understand why Azula and Ty Lee were already in the academy if Mai is older than them, shouldn’t Mai be there first?

the idea that exploring buck's 7x04 feelings about eddie specifically would be retconning the episode is genuinely so fucking funny to meeeeee. like. RETCONNING 😭😭😭 it barely even requires reframing. this is also even funnier when you consider that only twelve out of all forty-odd minutes of bt screentime didn't involve eddie diaz like. he was in every corner of that relationship. the narrative made it about eddie. literally always has been meme. IT ALWAYS HAS BEEN. "they would have to retcon the episode" did you watch it with your eyes closed. do you even BELIEVE that. literally they just need buck to actually look at it

Bruce reveals how he discovered Superboy’s secret identity. However, Clark pulls a reverse uno card on him, brings him to his secret underground lab under the Kent farmhouse, and shows Bruce that he is his destined partner.

Feeling burdened by this knowledge because he feels that he’s too young to get hitched to someone, Bruce leads Clark to his father’s office where he keeps his spinning amnesia wheel and hypnotized himself to forget about Clark.

Clark is willing to wait for Bruce and looks forward to the future when they would both be old enough to marry and reunited once again.

Tamlin going from someone who was blushing and shy about discussing the mating bond with Feyre in PRIVATE while she was human to someone who unabashedly and somewhat randomly slut shamed her and sexually humiliated her in front of dozens of High Royals and their entourages has got to be one of the craziest character jumps in modern ya novel history

I'd like to see how my life would have turned out, 20 years ago, had I joined my college football team instead of the college theater group.

Fuck. Fucking hell this fucking sucks. I’m sorry, I don’t mean to be rude. It’s not you, you’re not the reason I’m upset. Your request is interesting and I want to help you with it, I really do. It’s just… to do this, we’re going to have to use time travel. It’s not that it’s impossible or anything, I actually own a time machine so that’s not an issue. It’s that… I fucking hate time travel.

I don’t hate the concept of time travel itself. I think it can be a lot of fun in works of fiction. Doctor Who, Back to the Future, and Star Trek are all things that heavily feature time travel that I’m a big fan of. It’s just that, in real life, it gets so stupidly complicated. You know how every work of fiction seems to have different rules for turn travel? In real life time travel follows all these rules and none of them all at once. If that seems confusing, that’s because it is. It’s insane. But it’s the best chance for doing this, so we’re going to give it a try. Now, close your eyes and hold onto me tight. This is going to feel weird.

You can open your eyes now. Be careful though, it’s going to take a second for your eyes to adjust. We’re outside now, on the football field of your old college. You don’t have to worry about anyone seeing us. I may hate time travel but the time machine is pretty useful. Time travel, space travel, and camouflage. But that’s not important right now. See that skinny guy standing on the opposite side of the field? You should recognize him. It’s you, 20 years ago, as a college freshman. You really wanted to join the football team huh? I can see the longing in your eyes… but also some serious nervousness. I’m guessing this is about when you back out and decide to join the school's theater group. Not this time though. Don’t worry, I’m not gonna change anything drastic. I’m just going to give you a little… push in the right direction. Have to get you to join the team somehow. I just have to whisper some things in his, or I guess your ear while we’re in camouflage… and just like that everything is going to change. Welcome to the football team. You’re a little late on becoming a jock, but you’re a hard worker. You’ll catch up. Speaking of which…

We jumped forward in time. I probably should have warned you, I was just excited to see the changes. We’re not all the way back to the present, not yet. It’s been a year since the other you joined the football team, and just like I predicted you caught up real quick. Even when you were in theater you were a hard worker, and now that you’ve dedicated yourself to football instead, you’re an absolute beast. You’ve had a major growth spurt and fit right in with the guys who have been playing football since middle school, a total jock through and through. Looks like this version of you acts a little more jockish too. Probably because you’ve been spending so much time around jocks, they’ve been rubbing off on you. Literally in one very special case. That’s right, the new you managed to do what you never could in college: get a jock boyfriend. In the original timeline he never even looked your way, but now Tim Wire, the most popular jock in school, is head over heels for you. You two seem to have a great relationship… Let's see if it lasts.

Another jump forward, a much bigger one this time. It’s been about 5 years since you joined the football team. You didn’t go professional, not because you couldn’t but because you didn’t want to. A guy like you could have been a superstar, but you and your fiancée Tim agreed you both wanted something more stable. So you opened up a chain of gyms. It’s a small business, but it has a lot of potential for growth, especially with you as the face of the operation. You basically have it made. You own a small, successful business, have a sexy husband, and are about to adopt a 3 year old. Your life is fucking perfect. Let’s see if it gets better.

A final jump forward. We’re 20 years after you joined the football team, back into the present. You’re still the old you, but that’s only because I have to ‘finalize’ the changes. Take a look around. You might not recognize this place, this huge mansion, but it’s your home. You, your husband Tim, and your adopted son all live here together. This must be your home gym, and I believe that’s you and him flexing over there. Looks like the little guy ended up taking after his dads. He’s huge for an 18 year old. He’s smart too, all ready to take over the family business when you retire. Your gyms are a very successful franchise now, if you can’t tell from the sheer size of your house. It’s just my opinion but I think your life really would have been better if you joined the football team back then. And now it can be. All you need to do is press this button, and finalize the changes. It’s your choice-

Ok, that was quick. I guess it was an easy choice. I hope you enjoy your new life. I would if I were you. I mean a muscular sexy husband, a son you can be proud of, a successful business and an incredible amount of muscles and confidence. You’ve got it made. I just hope we didn’t change too much. I didn’t realize you’d start a gym franchise. That could have a big impact.

I’m sure it’s nothing though. I mean, how many lives can a gym really change?

The Doctor's contradictory origins (i.e: Being half-human, loomed, and possibly being the Timeless Child) even stumped the Celestial Intervention Agency agent, Maris, with she even suggesting that the higher-ups of Gallifrey are to blame for it.

However, thanks to one line in The Giggle, the real culprit was teased; The Toymaker.

Russell T. Davies has gone on record saying that thanks to Toymaker's machinations, all origins are in fact valid, meaning, like the Joker, his origins are multiple-choice.

From Twelve Angels Weeping: A Gallifreyan Noir, The Giggle novelization, and TARDIS Wiki.

If you can, please read this story; the twist villains at the end will excite you.

It seems to me that reports of New Vegas’ retconning have been greatly exaggerated

Magneto and Quicksilver getting along

A little bit of an awkward greeting, but that's to be expected especially when Mags is dressed like that. I love the look generally, but it's a bit insensitive to wear the costume that represents your children's abuse at your hands.

Just kidding, I doubt Pietro will ever get along with his former and probably future father. Furthermore, he shouldn't have to unless he wants to. Mags respects his wishes for the most part - bare minimum shit. At this point he'd accepted him as his father but didn't have any trust or respect for him. I don't think Magneto was implying anything about Pietro's mental health, but I could be biased there. The text isn't clear, though it says a lot about how Pietro feels about himself and about how he's expected to put up with people who hurt him.

One of the reasons I didn't really mind the Magneto bio parent retcon is because it didn't change all that much. Does it matter if someone is biologically related to you or if they're just a father figure who abused you? The relationship and history is still there. Removing the bio connection meant the twins truly got to choose whether they wanted the old man in their lives. People say you can't choose your family, Marvel has said that on many occasions - but you totally can.
