This will be remembered as the beginning of the end for FNT/Fandom Menace as you know it. The veil lifted a bit. I believe Gary wants the quartering taken down, he’s loving it, Chrissie was in the way. How quickly, and greedily they ate their own.
People will question what happened here for a long time.

@Bad_Banner He doesn’t like drama? The entirety of his financial means is based in drama.
“STAR WARS IS DEAD!”
“The M-SHE-U!”
“Hollywood is woke!”
“Peter Parker is Spider-Man, Miles Morales is Mikes Morales!”
These sounds like drama stirring statements

@maura_resister Did you fill your virtue signaling quota? Trump was fairly elected.

@fandompulse A piece of shit woke dumbass is working for Marvel Comics & has absolutely no talent.. and here I am.. not woke at all, with some talent struggling to get my Star Wars RPG rulebook system noticed..

Marvel Comics writer Deniz Camp wished the assassin's bullet hit President Trump. he tweeted:
"Missed again :("
This is the same writer who truned The Ultimates into an anti-white racist rant of a book, with Hawkeye being a they/them Native American and Hulk now being a large Polynesian woman who rants about colonialism.
What is Marvel Comics thinking?

@fandompulse I believe it should be. It was bar far the best movie released after the prequels. The sequels should be wiped from canon. I am still on the fence with Solo.

🚨 HOLY SMOKES! Scott Jennings STUNS Ana Navarro and lib CNN panel after exposing that Epstein colluded with Democrats to harm Trump
JENNINGS: Does your concern apply to STACEY PLASKETT (D), member of Congress?
NAVARRO: Can you just hear me?!
JENNINGS: Should she resign?
NAVARRO: There you go again!
JENNINGS: She was being PROGRAMMED by him after the moment you said we all knew.
PHILLIP: Why not apply that same logic to everyone?
JENNINGS: What REPUBLICAN was Epstein programming?
PHILLIP: Listen, hold on. You're you're basically saying if you're named in these documents. I guess you're saying that they should be condemned! You're making a carve-out for Trump.
JENNINGS: There's NO evidence that Trump had any contact with Epstein after he excommunicated him. But we DO have evidence that he was programming Democrat members of Congress! Why isn't that a big DEAL to you guys?
PHILLIP: We just don't know!
JENNINGS: We DO know that! We absolutely know he was programming Plaskett.
Scott never misses 🔥🔥🔥

Lois & Clark's Superman
Nobody's favorite Superman. And that's before the political stuff 😬 Great Lois Lane and Perry white though 👍
Happy Superman day



Kyomusha ⚡️@FrozenBubble69
Tom Welling as The Blur/Superman Although he claims to never have played Superman, Tom was a lot of people's Superman :) Happy Superman day!

@FrozenBubble69 I think Dean Cain was great in his performance as both Superman and Clark Kent.

The pool hall scene in Carlito’s Way is one of the most suspenseful set pieces in all of crime cinema. However, when the studio executives saw an early cut, they thought it was too long and asked Brian De Palma to cut it back - but instead, he made it even longer.
The writer of the film, David Koepp explains….
“We showed an early cut to the studio, and one of their notes was that the pool hall scene seemed too long. I was talking to Brian about it, and I said, “what do you think about this note that the pool hall scene is too long? I don't think they're right about that.” And he said,
“No, no, no, they're absolutely right, they're absolutely right. But what they mean is that it's not long enough”
And I thought he was just being cheeky and defiant. But actually, no - I mean, he knows suspense so well, he felt that it was just that he had failed to set up a little bit of the geography of the suspense - which is of course, his mastery.
You know - the guys in the bathroom, the door is slightly open, the other guys over here - all that great establishment of where everybody is, and how close they are to each other, and what all the stakes are.
The suspense only works later if that stuff's set up properly before. And so when he went back and furthered some of that coverage and expanded the front of the scene a little bit, the scene was nail biting and great.
And they saw another cut and said, “much better shorter, much better shorter.”

@fandompulse It was about social issues…not woke. Woke is a perversion of justice.

@epicaricature @TheLaurenChen Failures in life often want socialism.
English

@TheLaurenChen You could have gone with yes and saved a lot of typing.
Socialism, defined as you have defined it here, encompasses everything except anarchocapitalism.
English

@josh_hawes73816 @TheLaurenChen @epicaricature Karl Marx viewed socialism as a necessary transitional phase or "gateway" between capitalism and full communism.
English

@TheLaurenChen @epicaricature You know there can be socialist policy without losing ownership right ?

@fandompulse I like his work, but dread his longing for a secular world. The big deception.

Star Trek: Enterprise showrunner Brannon Braga explains why he believes Star Trek is an atheistic mythology:
"It’s a vision of a world where religion has been vanquished and reason drives our hearts to explore ourselves more deeply. It is a template for a world that every single one of us in this room longs for. And in that regard, it is an atheistic mythology.
STAR TREK is lively, action-packed and often profound. And its message is always the same: our inherent gifts of reason and compassion alone can solve any problem, and there is no time or place for a belief in something that doesn’t exist."
Can it solve the problem of Star Trek: Starfleet Academy and franchise ruin?

@Thor_Odinson @DonalTDeLay What point? If you want digital, then go for it. However, I prefer to own my media.

@DonalTDeLay They got a point. On the other hand…

@SirBylHolte I have never watched any of the SG series. However, I put it on my must -watch list after hearing many good things about the shows over the years.
On another note, I finally watched the 1995 series Space:Above & Beyond. I highly recommend you give it a watch.
English

For 10 seasons and over 200 episodes, "Stargate: SG-1" was the gold standard for sci-fi television.
Premise: a military dream team, Colonel Jack O'Neill, Dr. Daniel Jackson, and the alien warrior Teal'c must save the universe from the enslavement of the diabolical Goa'uld.
The show deftly mixed Egyptian mythology, creative science, kickass action, and epic space travel — all while keeping a perfect balance of humor, camaraderie, and genuine wonder.
And at its core was brilliant astrophysicist and soldier Major Samantha Carter: smarter than everyone in the universe, but NOT a girlboss.
She followed orders, loved her team, respected her male counterparts, and never once had to belittle the men around her to feel strong.
She earned her place through competence, not attitude.
That’s why the show worked so well for so long.
It spawned 2 fairly well-received spinoffs, "Stargate: Atlantis" and "Stargate Universe"...
...and 2 direct-to-video films, "Stargate: The Ark of Truth" and "Stargate: Continuum."
But it also begat the disastrous 2018 GIRLBOSS REBOOT prequel web series, "Stargate Origins: Catherine."
Released on MGM’s short-lived "Stargate Command" YouTube channel, it retconned the series into a story about a young Catherine Langford uncovering the Stargate in 1939 Egypt.
Langford was brash, bullying towards men, and a thoroughly unlikeable precursor to all the "strong women" plaguing media today.
The series BOMBED ENTIRELY, was cancelled after one short season, and is largely forgotten or dismissed today.
Thanx to female empowerment, TV will never see male-centered shows as entertaining as "SG-1" again.
But thankfully, we can rewatch these gems over and over again to remind us how good we once had it.

@Goldenforce772 @jondelarroz Like time travel or not, it may be needed to break from the disasters that were Discovery and SFA.

@jondelarroz Time travel issues? I'm out. A certain superhero universe got me to hate that concept and I won't tolerate it for Trek.

I have a solution for Star Trek that can tie in United and remove the Kurtzman universe entirely:
Years into his presidency, Jonathan Archer and the nascent United Federation of Planets are rocked by escalating temporal anomalies that threaten the Romulan War peace and the young Federation itself.
Starfleet traces the disturbances to the still-unresolved Temporal Cold War, and discovers that the shadowy “Future Guy” who once manipulated the Suliban Cabal was none other than Archer himself, projected from a devastated 28th-century future. In that broken timeline (the one containing the Burn, the Federation’s near-collapse, and all the Kurtzman-era cataclysms), a desperate Archer had volunteered to become a non-corporeal agent, trying to steer 22nd-century events toward a stronger Federation.
Instead, his well-intentioned meddling fractured the prime timeline, birthing the divergent horrors he was attempting to prevent.
Working with a time-displaced descendant and a preserved message from his own Enterprise crew, President Archer confronts his future self in a temporal nexus aboard the new flagship USS United. He convinces the older version to stand down, allowing the original, unaltered timeline to reassert itself.
The Kurtzman-era disasters are retroactively erased, revealed as the “bad future” that no longer exists, restoring continuity and ushering in a stable golden age of exploration. The series then proceeds from this corrected prime timeline, with Archer’s presidency now free to focus on building the Federation we always wanted to see, setting up ongoing stories of unity, diplomacy, and discovery without the baggage of the last decade’s continuity snarls.
What do you think?

@fandompulse I spend most of my $ on 80s, 90s and early 2000s comics.

Wolverine artist Ibrahim Mustafa attacks half of the population over politics:
"'You’re alienating half of your audience by being political' Motherf***er, my 'audience' is people who aren’t pieces of s***, who care about others. That’s who I make stuff for. There is no 'other half'."
Is this why comic book sales are at all time lows?

@LaJulie_Jolie @fandompulse Your questions are the reason why we are revisiting the issues with Kennedy, Abrams and Johnson. I see it as a way to mitigate another fumble.
English

@fandompulse Why are we relitigating this now? Kennedy is out as president of Lucasfilm. The better question is, what will Disney do with the sequels era going forward? Will they avoid it or give us more Rey-era slop? What will Dave Filoni do?
English

Star Wars editor Marcia Lucas reacts to The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi:
"Now that she's running Lucasfilm and making movies, it seem to me that Kathy Kennedy and J.J. Abrams don't have a clue about Star Wars. They don't get it. And J.J. Abrams is writing these stories— when I saw that movie where they kill Han Solo, I was furious. I was furious they killed Han Solo. Absolutely, positively there was no rhyme or reason to it. I thought, You don't get the Jedi story. You don't get the magic of Star Wars. You're getting rid of Han Solo?
And then at the end of this last one, The Last Jedi, they have Luke disintegrate. They killed Han Solo. They killed Luke Skywalker. And they don't have Princess Leia anymore. And they're spitting out movies every year. And they think it's important to appeal to a woman's audience, so now their main character is this female, who's supposed to have Jedi powers, but we don't know how she got Jedi powers, or who she is. It sucks. The storylines are terrible. Just terrible. Awful."
What was the biggest crime that Kathleen Kennedy, J.J. Abrams, and Rian Johnson committed?
