    The day the Superman movie trailer dropped, I watched:

    IRON HEART: WHY EVEN BOTHER?:
    Did you know that Iron Hart is a thing? This new TV series coming in June. Remember Riri Williams from Black Panther Wakanda Forever? No? Oh you barely remember Waganda Forever the film that killed off Tchala with the flu offscreen, rather than just recasting him, following Chadwick Boseman's death and then replacing Tchala with his girl boss sister? Yeah, that Wakanda
    forever the one MCU film that serves as a cure for insomnia in case you run
    out of sleeping pills some night or you can't listen to ASMR videos for some reason.

    The new Superman Trailer released this morning, and here's my fresh reaction
    to this latest marketing effort. (Spoiler: I think I've figured out what's bothering a lot of fans about this movie, and I think I'm finally able to articulate it.) #superman #dc #dccomics https://youtu.be/1LxPOEFwRXo?si=WUdI6M4q8dYnWqR0

    Yesterday was a day I was able to come home post-noon, but I was tired,
    so I just got through a couple of episodes of DOOL which aren't worth recapping.

    (Apologies if this is a duplicate thread but I didn't see one for
    Wednesday.)

    Fringe S2E10 'Grey Matters'. IMDb sez: "Olivia and Peter look into some patients of mental institutions that regain their mental state after
    having gone through a brain intervention performed by a shape-shifter
    named Newton. This is directly related to Walter and his brain."

    The glyphs in this episode spell "portal".

    "Thomas Jerome Newton" is the name assumed by a humanoid alien visitor
    to Earth in the 1963 novel "The Man Who Fell To Earth" by Walter Tevis.
    David Bowie played the part in the 1976 movie.
    The license plate on Olivia's Lincoln Navigator is 1C3PO1. It can be
    seen clearly as the truck goes through the gate by the guard shack at
    the beginning.
    There are a number of H. P. Lovecraft references. Dunwich is one of the hospitals, with Dr. West the physician the team works with. Two of the
    three key patients were Deborah Crampton and Stuart Gordon. Barbara
    Crampton and Stuart Gordon are the lead actress and director of several
    film adaptations of Lovecraft stories, including Re-Animator (1985).

    Phillip Broyles: There's only one Walter Bishop. And we'll be needing
    him before this is over.

    I've done good in this world. Now I'm tired and just want to be a cranky
    dirty old man.
