That would be a great way to keep the character around without expecting Renner to keep playing an action hero while in his 50s. Nobody wants a repeat of Indiana Jones IV, after all. And he's got the world-weary mentor persona down cold.

So far I'm loving Hawkeye. I love how, even though this is clearly setting up a passing of the torch, Kate's obvious talented is nonetheless dwarfed by Clint's experience. This is the best example of his quiet competence that we've seen in the MCU thus far. I'm also glad that the series is kind of a fond farewell to Natasha, from Clint's reaction to her portrayal in the musical to him using one of her favorite plans in episode two. I wasn't wowed by the Black Widow movie so it's nice to see her getting some love here.

This seems like a reasonable estimate. No matter how much we love it, this game is old. Most of us, especially here on the forums, played on live. That being said, I have seen a few posts, here and elsewhere, to the effect of "I'd heard of this game but never got the chance to play before." So the answer isn't 100%.

"Nobody" flew completely under my radar until a reviewer I follow recommended it. I'm glad he did. Excellent movie.

I agree wholeheartedly. Yes, by all means take some time to let memories fade but don't put the character on a shelf. What really frustrates me is that, from what's I've seen and read of his work, Chadwick Boseman was a dedicated character actor. I suspect he would be the first to say "the show must go on".

So the answer to "Who watches the Watchers" is 'Us"?

The answer is simple. The worthiness test is a curse placed on Mjølnir by Odin after Thor disobeyed him. Clearly that never happened in this timeline.

Yes, its a code thing. Characters will always exit portals facing southwards.

I'm assuming that, like me, you're a fan of the original comics. If so, then no there's never been a movie or TV show that recaptured that experience. The animated show was more popular and everything afterwards has aped it.

Fog of war is part of the character data that's saved locally on your PC. If you play on a different computer, install your game on a new hard drive, etc. it will reset to all black. You can transfer your old maps by going into Homecoming > Accounts > [User Name] > Maps and copying the Maps folder.

"Fair", in terms of running a costume contest, means that everyone who shows up gets an equal chance to impress the judge(s). It doesn't mean the judge will necessarily get to appreciate your costume the same way you do. If you have cel shading turned off and the contest judge has cel shading turned on (or vice versa) then, yes, you'll both be seeing different images. But the same is true if you each have different gamma settings, brightness, or red levels. Heck, just using different monitors alters the image you see. And, if you both could somehow use the same monitor, people's vision varies too.

And mine. 😄

That's a pretty good summation of my issues with the show. It was fun and had some nice character work for both Sam and Bucky but they really botched the big picture stuff. The different ways the show treated Zemo and Karli highlight that pretty well. Zemo's charming and has a clear, even somewhat sympathetic, motivation but the show still treats him like a villain. Sam and Bucky clearly don't like him and his murders are treated like murders. When he's hauled off to the Raft that's portrayed as a good thing. Meanwhile, Kalri's motives are murky. She's mad at the GRC for some things they've done which we're never shown. Nor are they really explained beyond a few buzzwords like "refugee". When she murders people it's brushed off even though her body count is on par with Zemo's. Yet at the end the show wants us to be sad she's dead. And we're supposed to accept that, yes, the GRC really are kind of the bad guys. Even though their major contributions to the plot were hiring John Walker and getting kidnapped.

I thought the subway scene took a few too many liberties with the laws of physics but, overall, I quite enjoyed this season. It might help that I never read the comics (which debuted four years before The Boys) but the comments I've read from those who did suggest this is a good adaptation.

John Spade: They're my theme music, every hero's got to have some.

Just finished s4e7 and its hands down the best episode of Black Lightning this season. I really hope this backdoor pilot gets picked up and made into a regular series.

What boggles my mind, aside from the general stupidity of death threats themselves, is that the MCU version of John Walker is much less of a d-bag than his comic book counterpart. And the circumstances by which he picked up the shield are much less controversial. Nevermind that the show is called "Falcon and Winter Soldier", we know darn well who's eventually going to wind up with the shield. This is about the journey where Sam proves to himself, and everyone else, that he deserves it.

Glass. When you care enough to send your most expendable.

You'll never get a job in Hollywood with that attitude, mister! 😄

Unfortunately you can't. Each beacon has a unique ID number and they are listed in that order when displayed.

People forget, or more likely never knew, that at the time NCSoft bought out Cryptic the City dev team had been reduced to around fifteen people. NC poured a ton of money into setting up Paragon Studios, without which most of the game we love would have never come to pass. While I have no love for the way NC handled the shutdown, we shouldn't pretend they never did anything for the game.

When running a mission with the Challenge Setting of No Travel Powers, the Shinobi power (Blaster > Ninja Training) is turned off despite it not actually granting any movement buffs.

I just spent a few minutes testing this one. I can confirm that when Shinobi is active entering into a tram, Wentworths, or the vicinity of a base portal will trigger the present opening emote. As will using Inner Inspiration. Activating Shinobi once inside those areas does not trigger the present opening emote.
