danielmardle.bsky.social @danielmardle.bsky.social · 10/10/2026I was always indifferent towards this one. Didn’t think it was bad as it didn’t do anything particularly egregious, it was just there. But then we started a marathon after Sam Neill died and I actually quite enjoyed this a lot more now, certainly more so thank FK which we still haven’t gotten to yet 100

danielmardle.bsky.social @danielmardle.bsky.social · 28/09/2026I should point out that I’ve only seen 4 MCU films since Endgame (The Marvels & all 3 Spideys). And when Yelena popped up in BND it took me a minute or so to realise it was her (as I haven’t seen anything else with Florence Pugh either despite her being everywhere) but I got by easily enough. 110

danielmardle.bsky.social @danielmardle.bsky.social · 28/09/2026When Endgame came out a guy I worked with was quite curious to see it despite not having seen a single MCU film, and so probably didn’t know his Black Widow from his Black Panther. 110
