    From Ubiquitous@21:1/5 to All on Thu May 2 04:30:40 2024
    I watched:

    THE BIGGEST HIT ON DISNEY PLUS...IS JESUS CHRIST! THE LORD SMITES DISNEY'S WOKE BS!:
    Disney and its streaming channel Disney Plus are kind of the modern Sodom
    and Gomorrah these days, and yet, wonder of wonder, miracle of miracles, according to my Hollywood spies the biggest hit on Disney Plus right now
    is a show...about Jesus Christ! Here's embarrassing leaked information
    from behind the Magic Curtain about how badly The Chosen, a show about
    the life of Jesus Christ, is smiteing all of Disney Plus' woke garbage
    with righteous wrath! #disney #disneyplus #thechosen https://youtu.be/bUGNHhiwwm4?si=M5LJIQlaBZ8i8LZv

    DISNEY PLAN TO *REPLACE* CAPTAIN AMERICA AFTER BAD TEST SCREENINGS? NEW ACTOR WOULD MAKE THINGS *WORSE*!:
    Captain America 4 has been a production PLAGUED by problems, delays and reshoots, and IF a new rumor is
    true, it would explain WHY this production has been shooting for months without a script! This rumor
    came to me last week, and I'm still trying to wrap my head around this insanity. I object to the Falcon
    as Captain America, but in my opinion Marvel's proposed solution would only make things WORSE! Let's
    hope this rumor isn't true, folks... #disney #marvel #captainamerica https://youtu.be/VKx9UTVy5rI?si=aSKI_nWSwFzxzdPl

    FAMILY GUY:
    "Old World Harm". Peter and Lois inadvertently rent a condo in a retirement community for their Florida vacation; Brian helps Stewie take his first
    shower. Peter hitting that woman's butt like a pinata made me laugh.

    My longest workday of the week was even longer than usual this week
    (same will be true, for the last time, next week). So I basically just
    got through soaps:

    soaps: Tues' ep's.
    GH - Geez. Booby Vista is playing one of the most unpleasant
    characters I have ever seen! - She has, like, no redeeming qualities:
    her character is a harpy of a stage mother, and spends the entire
    episode hectoring Maxie into trying to say something negative about
    Brook Lynn... Dumb Willow unknowingly catches Drew and Nina together
    after their second session of "hate sex", which they conceal from
    Willow, and Willow takes it as a sign that Drew and Nina have buried the hatchet and that maybe Willow should forgive Nina too! Later, Nina
    discusses her "hate sex" sessions with Drew with Maxie... Olivia hires
    Sasha to be the new family cook, and Sasha and Cody are more "couple-y"
    now... In the episode's best bit, Jason "debriefs" Dex about Sonny and
    Pikeman, and then Jason and Anna figure out that Valentin has been
    running Pikeman and that Valentin has been lying to Anna this whole time
    - so Anna is going to go "under cover" with Valentin to "sting" him!
    DOOL - Marlena interrupts a "Pawn" session between Constantine and
    John, and afterwards Marlena and John figure out that something is up
    here, but they aren't sure what. Earlier, Marlena runs across "Everett"
    (it was pretty clearly the "Bobby Stein" personality) who dismissively
    ends their professional relationship (how is Marlena not suspicious
    here?!!), and then seems to slap the make on a very suspicious
    Stephanie... Chad follows up on Nicole's "tip" about Paulina's
    questionable actions while under radiation quarantine, but she kind of stonewalls him; later, Chad quizzes Julie about it - I think Chad has a
    real story here. Chanel is sick, and a worried Paulina and Johnny take
    her to the hospital (I'm now wondering if, in a twist, it will turn out
    that Chanel is preggers!).

    I put "Chicago Med" on, but paid it no attention, so I could not tell
    you what happened.

    I then had "Chicago Fire" on - Violet gets Severide to offer Jocelyn
    Hudon's character (Lyla Novak?) a permanent paramedic gig, but Novak
    turns it down; at the end of the episode, Violet again pitches Novak on
    signing up to stay at "15" permanently. Meanwhile, a new "floater"
    firefighter catches Kidd's attention, but the dude is a sketchy "fanboy"
    of Severide, et al, and he seems to be up to something. Other stuff
    happened, but it wasn't important.

    What did you watch?



    I watched:


    The Fall Guy (theatrical) New action comedy based on the TV series.
    Ryan Gosling stars as a stuntman who doubles for a famous action star
    (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) in a movie being directed by his on again off
    again girlfriend (Emily Blunt). When the movie's star goes missing
    Gosling is tasked with tracking him down. This is a very meta movie and
    love letter to stuntmen. It's sort of a cross between "F/X" and "The
    Player." Although not a lot of celebrity cameos, just a movie about
    making movies. With loads of gratuitous stunt work. I didn't even know
    that could be a thing until now. Overall I'd say it was a mediocre
    movie that can wait until home viewing.


    Dead Boy Detectives (Netflix) - I finished the last two episodes of the seasons. SPOILERS!!!!

    "The Case of the Very Long Stairway" - Penultimate episode. Picking up
    right where the last episode ended, Edwin has been dragged to hell by a
    demon and Charles is determined to travel to hell to rescue his best
    friend. The Hell in this series is a bit of a mixture between
    "Hellraiser" hell and "What Dreams May Come" hell with various
    individual and collective Hells to travel through. "Despair" (Donna
    Preston reprising her role from Sandman) makes a cameo. Crystal offers
    to make the journey but Edwin says no since nothing living can return
    from hell. So while Charles is fighting his way through hell Crystal is tracking down the demon that used to posses her in hopes of forcing him
    to open a portal to hell for her. Meanwhile the Witch and the Cat King
    have a not so pleasant encounter with each other. Their fight gave a
    clear power ranking of the Witch and the Cat King. The Witch is way
    more powerful than I thought! Great episode.


    "The Case of the Hungry Snake" - Season finale. Freshly escaped from
    hell and with everyone else free from any demons or curses the gang
    plans to bug out of town with the quickness! But the Witch still has
    revenge and plans for ultimate power on the mind so no one is going
    anywhere just yet. It just occurred to me this season was sort of like
    "Buffy" where there would be a Big Bad in the background all season
    while the Scooby gang fought the monster of the week until the finale
    where they would unite to fight the Big Bad. That was basically this.

    It certainly doesn't have a smokeshow to rival the original show's...

    Oh, wait. I'm just now reading that Heather had a cameo in the movie as well. Regardless, my point still stands, since Heather is no longer the smokeshow
    she once was...

    Oh, that's who that was. I guessed the cameo was someone from the old
    show, but couldn't tell who.

    There is another cameo that was much more recognizable. People clapped
    when they appeared...

    I don't blame you. I ended up skipping the video and just looking at
    the transcript. Turns out that the script for Captain America 4 isn't
    working, even for black audiences in testing. So what some are
    proposing is to use Captain Carter as the replacement. That will get
    some people cheering but you know it's going to get a number of people complaining about them not going forward with the black Captain
    America.

    Though I agree that there's no reason why Falcon needs to become
    Captain America to keep fighting crime. If he was to pick up Cap's
    shield he can still be Falcon.

    Same. Ubi keeps putting up these YouTube videos with subjects that are
    at least mildly intriguing but the guy doing the videos is so
    insufferable that I end up quitting out of them.

    You would think so. That's not what the guy said but maybe that's what
    they are thinking about doing. That is having a Captain Britain with
    Carter as the lead instead of doing a Captain America movie.

    A race-swapped Cap is one thing. A foreigner as Cap? Nope. Unacceptable.

    Even is she is a hottie.

    And how do you shoot a movie without a script?

    Why would they need a script when they have AI to do it all now.

    I am sorry, I can’t sit through this guy. What’s the proposed solution?

    I don't blame you. I ended up skipping the video and just looking at
    the transcript. Turns out that the script for Captain America 4 isn't working, even for black audiences in testing. So what some are
    proposing is to use Captain Carter as the replacement. That will get
    some people cheering but you know it's going to get a number of people complaining about them not going forward with the black Captain
    America.

    Though I agree that there's no reason why Falcon needs to become
    Captain America to keep fighting crime. If he was to pick up Cap's
    shield he can still be Falcon.

    Thanks for the info.

    If it’s the script that isn’t working, I’m not sure why replacing the actor
    is the fix.




    What did you watch?

    Captain Carter.

    Thanks. I’d actually heard they had something for her but she just got a TV series so who knows if she’s got time.

    Why is that worse than the guy they’ve been falcon around with?

    They replaced a honkey with a black man, now he's being replaced by a female honky. They never should have replaced Chris Evans with The Falcon.

    Clearly, checking off DEI and ESG checkboxes for actors are more important
    than having a script.
