    @tim in fairness, my original post still belongs in the TV thread

    and you know this thread will just die because people wont go in to a thread called "children's comic books" to talk about marvel movies

    @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.

    https://www.nytimes.com/2012/08/12/opinion/sunday/in-defense-of-single-motherhood.html

    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

    Loving the animation style of "What If ... ?" and found it reasonably entertaining.

    The ongoing storyline should be cool. Interesting how they got some actors back to do the voice work, but not others.

    I liked how they basically animated several shots from the movie

    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.

    looks fun, i think this is a series isn't it? yet another different tone, has a die hard/90's action comedy vibe

    I find Renner to be a charisma free plank, but I think Hailee Steinfield is decent so will give the first episode a watch.

    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 easier to play
