Yeah I didn't expect Dox's plan to be implemented that quickly. I thought they'd spend more time trying to find out what she was up to.
I was just listening to The Lioness two days ago. Great music to be depressed to.
I hope they add something like Dynamax Adventure that was a great time-sink.
The acting is phenomenal. Sam Jackson, Don Cheadle, Ben Mendelson, Olivia Coleman, Kingsly Benedair, are all excellent.
The story is shite. All the great acting in the world can't overcome that.
This article doesn’t even talk about how Fafnir became a dragon after Loki had killed his brother Otr and gave Fafnir a cursed pouch made of his brother’s hide. It doesn’t even give the real details of how Sigred hid in the dirt under leaves and stabbed out at Fafnir’s belly as he slithered by.
My dogs are named Fafnir and Otr after this myth.
It’s meant to be a cop out! It’s meant to cheapen the story. That’s the point! If he died it would have been a story that was powerful and evoked all of this feeling, but she couldn’t do it to him so she sacrificed the quality of the story to give him a happy ending. It’s supposed to make the audience feel kinda cheated.
Man, Secret War with Nick Fury sending heroes (or in this case maybe skrulls) to infiltrate Latveria against diplomatic policy (maybe as a home on earth instead of suspicion of doom), and it being revealed that Nick had done this AND mind wiped his insurgents. All as a means to introduce DOOM. That would have been an INFINITELY better Bendis script to adapt to this show... Now I'm sad that I've had this thought.
That's kinda the point. Rather than go with the ending that was right for the story she sacrificed the right ending for happiness. It's fucking beautiful. I love it so much.
Would you like a can of beans in these trying times?
