I was really bummed they didn't reference the cartoon once in that show.

Moderation @VENOM has been threadbanned for poisoning the well and getting a rise out of Black Widow fans. @KJsooner Let me give some advice to you: if you see a post you think is breaking the rules or constitutes "inmates running the asylum", please use the Report button. While I try to catch up on threads as often as I can (not very easy, since I'm at work 6 days out of the week, 8-9 hours out of the day. I'm actually at work right now!), I'm not always there. Reporting it at least gives the staff a notification that something is wrong and that somebody will try and take care of a situation as soon as possible. It's a lot better to take action against trolls rather than complain about them. Anyways, Tuesday numbers are up.

Okay Sqwad tickets are up. Tonight's going to be busy.

So despite the fact that Fandango has a big "Get Tickets Now" ad, The Suicide Squad tickets aren't up just yet. Maybe in half an hour? Jungle Cruise tickets are on sale and yes I do plan to track them, even though I know I'll be the only one doing so.

I didn't check every award nomination, and I know it got tons of acting and writing noms too, but I think a good chunk of the Emmy nominations were technical awards. Mandalorian and The Crown got 24 nominations and those are both costly, movie budget-style programs.

How will the Film Twitter hipsters survive this chilling news?

HOW? THAT DIDN'T EVEN HAVE A PLOT JFC

I do like McKenna Grace's nomination though. She was only in two episodes of Handmaid's Tale this season, but she leaves an incredible impact.

I was gonna crack a joke about all of WandaVision's noms, but my dumbass is gonna probably campaign for both Owen Wilson and Richard E. Grant hard during the BOFFYs next year. So yeah, probably gonna keep my mouth shut.

Of course this isn't near me

Uni's streaming strategy is so bizarre lol

Tangentially related!

Honestly I think they're playing it smart by not pushing too hard on the GI Joe connection (yes I know it's still there). They're selling the movie more as a fun ninja movie rather than a big franchise play and I think that's a better sell for people. There's a reason why "GI Joe Origins" is crammed into the corner on the movie's logo
