[Discussion] VisionQuest - S01E04 "Malware"

Reply in thread

You explained it before I got to it.

I think this change to Jocasta’s origin was good and fitting for the current times and the MCU. Stark and Banner created Ultron in like hours/days and so it stands to reason that a group of smart people could do their own version much later, especially with so much tech and Ultron bots that had to have been recovered by various organizations.

[Discussion] VisionQuest - S01E03 "Reboot"

Reply in thread

I correctly guessed, to my family, who Butcherbird is but I’m still uncertain who Paladin’s client is. I’m still thinking it’s going to be someone in Zodiac or ties to Zodiac since we know that’s the next show coming up and based on the little I’ve researched about the group.

I think that’s why they want Vision captured, so they can have or create their own synthezoid that can infiltrate or be used to control global narratives.

Josh Hutcherson and Mackenzie Davis Cast as Mister Miracle and Big Barda

I’m assuming you mean the comic characters and not the actor and actress. I’m not super duper familiar, but this is what I remember:

Big Barda was originally a part of the Fury’s under the direction and training of Granny Goodness (denizen of Apokolips) who words under Darkseid. She eventually becomes a hero.

Mr. Miracle is also a New God and like an expert fighter and his biggest power is being a master escape artist/being able to escape pretty much anything. Also becomes a hero at some point.

So, it sounds like we’re getting some New Gods and Apokolips stuff if they’re bringing in these two.

Trump, 80, Is Psychotic and It’s Getting Worse, Says Cognitive Doctor

They did it that way because it’s a commentary on the oath as the Commander-in-Chief of the US armed forces to defend the US from enemies both foreign and domestic. They’re making a case that our President is in league with the enemy. He’s violating the oath to uphold the Constituion and do his job correctly.

Yes, they are authoritarian. That wasn’t the point of their post though, at least as I read it.
