See AllIt's Official, the MCU's Scarlet Witch Is Dead and Marvel Just Confirmed It
Well, um, duh. The movie she died in included another Wanda Maximoff who survived. Kinda the point of the thing, since realizing she would be depriving the alternate universe versions of her sons their actual mother is part of what horrified her into stopping her plan.
So canonically, there's at least one live Wanda out there, which also implies a near infinity of others. Maybe with different stories, who never got hooked by a Darkhold, and who (hint, hint) may or may not look exactly like Elizabeth Olsen.
Of course that remains an option. Whether it's one they should use is a different question.
Reacher Season 3 Was A Big Improvement On Season 2, And These 10 Reasons Explain Why
What a complete overreach. With the exception of the valid complaints about the lackluster fight scenes in season 2, all the rest of them are just variations of "Didn't like the plot as much."
The "we've never seen Reacher go undercover before" thing is just absurd. There were only two plots before this and there was no reason FOR him to go undercover in either of them.
Frankly, also, the idea that Duffy was a "better" love interest was also stupid - she shouldn't have been a love interest at all, and it was clearly shoehorned into the plot where it didn't belong, and came out of nowhere.
Look, it's great that people liked it, since it means we'll get more Reacher, which is a good thing. But let each one stand on it's own or it's going to fall into the trap of constantly having to top itself rather than just be good solid storytelling.
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 3 Sadly Debunks A Dr. McCoy Fan Theory
I agree with some others. I'd rather see Piper and Dehner before we get to McCoy, if we need to see more TOS characters at all. And even then, save them for season 5 or 6. Everyone seems to be rushing to add TOS characters - and then complaining that SNW gets them "wrong."
Along the way - and I still feel "later" is better than "sooner" Sulu s the crew as an astrophysicist, and Dehner s below decks somewhere in sciences. Or heck, even a two-parter interacting with Fleet Captan Garth before the tragedy that cost him his mind, if the timeline works out right.
Spock needs to be in Pike's crew. I like the choices they've made with Uhura, M'Benga, and Chapel. But too many more and they're really pushing it. There really are other ships in the fleet.
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Has A Doctor Problem In Season 3, But We Think This Casting Solves It
There's no canonical indication that Piper was ever the doctor under Pike. No reason he can't be, either, but there's no need to rush it. All indications are that McCoy ed the crew AFTER Kirk took over.
Given Kirk's rank in the current Strange New Worlds, we've got quite a ways to go before he takes over the Enterprise. Piper is in the ship's future, but he can wait. If Babs Olusanmokun needs to leave the show, sure. Otherwise, wait.
Why Captain Kirk's Tombstone Said "James R. Kirk" In Star Trek Season 1
Honestly, it's not something I particularly care about. It's clearly one of those continuity things where an early choice was made differently later.
But if they really do want to reclaim it, the obvious answer is for Strange New World's Gary Mitchell to have some sort of private nickname for Kirk that starts with an R. That in private, he calls him by that. So that when he gets godlike powers and creates Kirk's grave, he includes that nickname as his middle initial instead of the actual T for his real middle name.
All they have to do is use it once, have Kirk wince and say "I've asked you not to call me that, Gary."
10 Smallville Decisions That Aged Way Better Than Any Of Us Expected
This "not showing the costume until the finale" thing is often repeated, and it's ridiculous. It was a great idea early on, when the point was that Clark was still coming into his powers and wasn't Superman yet.
By the series finale, he had a whole bunch of (costumed!) super-friends, and so many various Kryptonians popped in and instantly had control of all their powers in minutes, which just made Clark look deficient and slow, especially since all they had to do was officially state that Jor-El had intentionally blocked his powers so he COULD grow up slowly, while dealing with the challenges that being hamstrung caused him.
It certainly wasn't "a decision that aged well." It was a corner they painted themselves into and then stuck with it well past its freshness date.
