I watched the last 3 episodes of What If tonight, and they all felt like...What if bleak things happened to characters you love and lots of them died? I'm hoping the next few will be more upbeat.

I've been pleased that I've written the last 3 days, just paused in the midst of the afternoon and sat down and wrote as long as a scene was in my mind,

I agree that the 'what ifs' are a bit dark, but I enjoy them because the art is so well-done, and who doesn't like extra banter between characters? I myself would love to see the 'Frog Thor' story because I think animating that would be hilarous.

Good for you on the writing AND painting! I'd love to repaint around here but the effort needed to clear a room--ANY room--is too much to contemplate.

There have certainly been interesting bits and pieces in them, but those last three were particularly bleak to me. I'll have to not fall behind and watch multiples in a row, because that was a downer of an evening. I am interested enough to keep going, but I don't know that I would if I wasn't so invested in the Marvel universe. I'd love to see Frog Thor or anything crackish.

I've not been on dw in quite some time. Years for lj. But I ended up here for Reasons, so why not stop in and say hi?

I watched the first What If the other day. I was kinda meh about it, but then again, I was pretty meh about most of the first Cap movie. I was going to watch the rest unspoiled, but I think I'm going to look at synopses at the least before watching.

Good to hear about the writing.

And hey! I'm catching up on B99 myself. I hadn't watched since the new season finally started. It's pretty fun, definitely easy to watch.

Hi!

I liked the first Cap movie, it was one of my favorites, but I was annoyed by the What If episode. I thought Peggy should have been allowed to be a superhero without needing her boyfriend as a superpowered sidekick. Or since he was, that it should have had a happier ending, that somehow his being there changed events so that they survived the war together and had a happy life.

I can spoil you more if you want, but basically what I already said, there are lots of deaths in episodes 3, 4, and 5 of What If. It's an AU, doesn't impact movie canon, and all that jazz, but I watched those three all in one evening and found them depressing.

I'm only up to the last episode of S2 of B99, so I've got a long way to go. It's good to have something amusing in my bubble.
