@mariner4life pretty fair commentary
Looking at the Marvel series so far, they have all had pretty clear messages etc and all have been very different, its pretty cool
So there has there been a pro-male , pro-tradition , right wing Marvel series so far?
All the comics pre 80s
I am talking about Marvel TV series being made now.
Just wondering if they are living up to diverse political viewpoints, or only the left.There were some positive father points in Wandavision, so not the normal left view of parenting there.
FFS that is a weird comment.
Why? Left politics is very biased towards single mother's being just as good for children, despite research that says the opposite.
Good of you to group the entirety of the left in this - I thought it was the left that did that kind grouping ....
Secondly, it's still B/S, even if it was true it doesn't make your statement true, its not zero sum, the "whichever large group you're talking about" can be positive about male parenting and be positive about single mother parenting as well.
Never said it was zero sum, or any other strawman you feel like posting up.
My comment is of course a generalisation, I don't have time to ask everybody on the left their opinion on single parenting. But it's clear it's seen as a positive, as a generalisation, on the left. Lots of data to show better results for children having both parents.
What strawman? You said positive father points and not the normal left view of parenting. It's just B/S.
Here's the first link I found, from the good old NY Times. Even derides the "studies" that shows she's wrong.
There are many more, and plenty of policy from that side of the isle that backs up my opinion too. Famous examples of Helen Clarke talking about it in the 70s (wanting to replace fathers with dependence on the State).
The strawman is that is some on the left don't subscribe to my generalisation then it's completely wrong. It's a commonly held belief on the left that single parenting is as good as having both parents.
Even if the bold were true, and I don't agree that it is in the slightest, that still doesn't mean the normal left view of parenting is not in favour of "positive father points".
@kirwin i think one single parent CAN be better than one/two shitty ones, i and everyone i can ever remember talking too are in favour of positive parents of either or both genders....its the "positive" aspect that is the most important part, not the gender

@nta is there going to be ongoing story? thought they were all stand alone
I thought it would all come together at various points?

I think these are like the comics, what if "insert blank". Linked in the sense they are part of the multiverse, but can be one and done oddities. Get some great stories with these.
One of my favourites is Deadpool kills the Marvel Universe, as he makes his way through murdering EVERYBODY. Final panel is him crawling out of the comic to kill the writers.
Kirwan household consensus is we'd watch the hell out of a Captain Carter movie.

so, anyone else watching?
so far a lot of fun, so far don't seem to be connected, the most recent has a cool twist
-
looks fun, i think this is a series isn't it? yet another different tone, has a die hard/90's action comedy vibe

@nepia i use to like him more...but he seems to be playing hawkeye in every movie now...so it kind of works when hes supposed to be...less so for everything else
I've never really seen what people see in him, don't see his performance in the Hurt Locker as outstanding. In saying that I've never had an issue with him playing Hawkeye, so agree with you that it kinda works when he's being Hawkeye.

@nepia i think Mark Ruffalo has done something similar, play a role long enough that you can slowly change the character into basically...you, or at least someone else to play
Chris Hemsworth is the best example of this with Thor.
-
…latest episode of What If….wow, pretty cool!
-
damn, a whole stack of new shows announced, not worried about them all (will probably watch them) but some look real interesting
retro (90's tv show continuation) xmen will be cool and i think secret invasion is a pretty bit event in the comics
-
@kiwiwomble None of them jump out at me but I'll likely give all the non animation ones a first episode watch.

Jack Nicholson always seems to be Jack Nicholson, but he plays a darn fun and interesting Jack Nicholson.

Ryan Reynolds plays one character with different names in every movie now. He was shit and unwanted until he could do that now every second hack says 'get me that wisecracking Reynolds guy'.

The various Marvel Zombie comics were always pretty good - very intense/violent, and quite funny - it will be interesting seeing how those are adapted
