I'm waiting for Connor myself. It makes me anticipate him even more seeing the care that goes into their other figures.

You know how they have those underwear with padded buttcheeks? I wonder if it's worth it to rig up something like that. Since the pant material is plastic-y though, would it even help?

Time has tempered my disappointment with the PT. I hated PM when I dragged my family to see it in theater, but now I can sit back and appreciate that it introduced political intrigue and all the diplomatic stuff I just didn't like much when I was younger. Plus that awful dialogue is enjoyable...

That honestly makes me more excited to see the film, lol. The debate seems to be in the semantics. Shang-Chi being released as a Marvel title is like Mulan as a Disney Princess. She's not technically a princess but that studio is primarily known for their princess movies and so she tends to...

It is a bit stereotypical, but to me at least (Edit, I'm not Chinese. I'm Japanese-American) I'll take simply having an asian guy starring. Nitpicking can come later. I think if other films come out that ONLY are about martial arts, then there's going to be an issue.

I mean if we're going by having powers alone, that gets into the debate about how Tony Stark or Batman aren't really superheroes. For most, though, both of those characters are considered superheroes, and their films as being superhero or comic book movies. This is what I mean when I say...

Awesome! Thank you for the recs! Bonus of coming to these games later, I can usually find them pretty cheap.

I finally have some time now to go back and play games I missed out on. Which AC games should I check out?

That's disappointing. I hadn't played any AC since the first one, and really enjoyed Odyssey and Valhalla. I guess those will be my last two AC games.

I had to futz with his pants to get them to sit well because he's flat as a washboard.

Except they have repeatedly broken the mold: by breaking and setting records. It's not just my phrasing when I say "first Asian American superhero film," it is how it is being described and discussed in media. That is the context where others have placed it.

I'm not sure if I'd upgrade mine. I have the ancient HT Joker so having one that looked like he wasn't wearing Barbie-quality clothing would be fantastic, but the direction of my collecting has changed since I first picked him up (he was my first HT figure). For me it would come down to price...

I wasn't planning on getting this iteration of Thor, but he's looking so good in those photos.

Marvel unquestionably made a huge impact on cinema, one other studios are studying and trying to emulate. When Marvel releases a movie, it will automatically attract a lot of interest. When they make a superhero movie starring asian american actors, it will draw more attention than if it were...

Done!
