For the record, my favorite part of the Spider-Man films is the scene in NWH where they’re all just sitting on the statue talking.

I’ve been expecting to see some kind of conclusion involving Billy or Wanda, but that doesn’t seem to be where this is going.

Would tie in to the whole Madripoor thing but not the “give you back your heart” thing. Unless Sharon has somehow resurrected Wanda. God only knows.

I’m still waiting for Vision and/or Tommy to realize that the existence of Tommy implies the existence of Billy somewhere. That might be more of an “end of the series quest” for Tommy.

Hey, actors gotta work for a living. Maybe Art had the free time and was a friend of someone on the production.

I thought it was funny that they cast Diane Morgan (a.k.a. Philomena Cunk). She’s fab.

Honestly, I would listen to a podcast that was just Ultron doing an hour long AMA every single week. Yes, he wants to destroy humanity, but he likely would give great career advice, and his movie reviews would be legendary.

Voiced by James Spader? Yes please! There’s just something about his voice and delivery that makes anything he says fascinating.

I knew I knew her! Ach that I didn’t place it!

What critical part of her story is Jocasta missing? Besides how she got her body? Something that is going to be a major recontextualization yes? Some part she possibly herself deleted before upload for … reasons that are to be revealed. Too much pain, too much guilt?

Really I would enjoy the show if it was just Ultron (Spader) and Vision (Paul Bettany) just chatting and debating all day.

The Client identity is such an odd one… like… why the Saturday morning cartoon fedora silhouette gimmick and the voice modulator unless it is someone who once revealed will mean something… but I can’t think of who it could be. Unless it’s another backup of one of the primary cast (Spader or Bettany). Logically, it should be Tyler Howard the Director of SWORD from WandaVision but… who cares about that guy?

I had been behind a few episodes and heard some much hype about Jim Hammond/Torch I thought we were going to get more, but I at least like it was fleshed out a bit more.

For the Billy/Tommy reunion, I’m willing to bet it’s the pre- or post- credits scene in the show.

Also T’Nia Miller and Spader have some crazy good chemistry…almost uncomfortable to watch because every scene is like “oh they’re gonna \_\_\_ so hard.”
