The journey wasn't clear to me in the MCU. I knew about Wilson as Captain America in the comics ahead of time so when Rogers gives him the shield in the MCU that made sense, albeit they skipped over Bucky who got it first in the comics. Wilson as Captain America wasn't solidified until the...

Thinking about some of the conversation about Brave New World and Wilson as Captain America, got me wanting to throw in my own two cents... I liked BNW a lot more than most and I feel it was a bit unfairly maligned. The media is still holding out hope for Thunderbolts while they were much more...

This movie didn't do it for me. It didn't feel like a summer blockbuster. I feel like it should've been on Disney Plus where they could give more of the characters development and delve even deeper into the subject matter the film explored. I am doubtful this movie will get strong repeat...

I was really into it from Avatar to Unity/Worlds of DS9, but I didn't like Rough Beasts of Empire, which was the beginning of the end of my love affair. I read a few more after that, but it wasn't the same.

I thought this was a very good film. Saw it twice. There is a mid-credit and end credit scene if you go see it. The mid-credit scene you should definitely stick around for.

I'm torn over whether the story should've been more about the hunt for the stolen adamantium, and really play up Wilson vs. Serpent Society, with either President Ross in the wings, or that election is going on, and they tease Ross vs. Wilson for the sequel, as well as the Leader pulling...

I've seen the movie three times, and I think it does sort of take on the political climate, circa that of the prior presidential administration. The Red Hulk could be a stand-in for January 6, however how President Ross's subsequent actions played more like mainstream/establishment liberal wish...

When it comes to language and Trek fan fic, I've often taken words or phrases from Trek lit, episode transcripts, and also from Memory Alpha and Beta to give my stories a Trek feel. For example, I use refresher or 'fresher instead of bathroom.

I don't think that winning awards (or being nominated even) means you have automatic buzz. It definitely classes up a project to have an Academy Award winner involved, but that doesn't necessarily equate to creating excitement about a star. I think Sweeney, for example, has a lot of buzz right...

I think the idea of buzz is subjective in this case (and also how buzz equates to success). Yeoh is in high-profile and successful work too, but how often is she the face of it compared to Foxx? Foxx being part of something is used to sell it more than Yeoh often is, though of course adding Yeoh...

How so? If Foxx is still getting all these projects, where he is headlining or co-starring, how is that Hollywood saying he's not bankable?

Even there, Yeoh got a lot of buzz off her award-winning role, but Foxx has been more consistently a headliner, so defining who is a big name or a bigger name is subjective. Foxx, like Yeoh, is getting streaming work but he's headlining more than she is, in more successful ventures, so how is...

Thanks for the explanation, though I don't agree. Yeoh's Academy Award was well deserved and well earned, but I don't define popularity or success in Hollywood based solely on a person's most recent award. Winning an Academy Award definitely adds prestige and hopefully is a career booster...

Looking over the discussion...how is Michelle Yeoh a bigger name than Jamie Foxx? Nothing against Yeoh who I like a lot, but for those who argue that what are you basing that on?

I'm liking this a lot more than I expected. I really like the retro influenced art style and Colman Domingo just has a great voice for Osborn, he's second to Dafoe now for me when it comes to iterations on the character. I think the voice cast overall is pretty good. My quibbles are the almost...

This brings to mind a potential pitfall in my own writing. I don't think I spend much time describing well-known species like Vulcans because I'm taking it on faith that readers of Trek fanfic know what Vulcans and other well-known species look like. I perhaps spend even less time describing...

I think that's a simple fix. Sometime after the Terrans freed themselves in the DS9 Mirror episodes, some reinstituted the Terran Empire. They could keep the original Starship Defiant from "The Tholian Web" or better yet just use the 24th century Defiant replica that Smiley made as that Easter...

That's what I'm thinking. If they didn't want to bump against canon, they could've just set DISCO in the 25th or 26th centuries. Doing that would've also cut out some of the initial fandom heartburn. That way Burnham wouldn't have been Spock's sister, and I think there might have been less...

First off, a sequel doesn't have to linearly follow from the date of the first movie. Secondly, I also said its aftermath. Heck, the movie could even start with a Tomed Incident flashback (like how the movie started with a Terran Empire flashback) and then deal with the aftermath.

Now that the kinks are out, I wouldn't mind seeing a sequel. The core characters here are fine, though Wisp/Fuzz could tone it down. In a sequel I would like to see them connect it more to the wider Trek world, and see things like: -Talarians and maybe the start of that war; ditto with the...
