Yeah, I assume in general that nothing on the internet ever goes away. At least makes it somewhat more annoying though.

i did the thing that means it’s probably less archived (by editing all the replies before deleting), but i assume some of it probably remains out there. Nothing I can do about that.

One thing i miss about Lemmy is shittymorph tbf

Glad I deleted everything on there. fucking hell.

NOOOOOOOOOOOO :(

yes they are, actually. Backwards compatibility is a huge thing in Windows, it’s why you can’t name files certain names such as CON, and why you can find things from 3.1 etc. still.

They also specifically addressed this in the first movie with that guy that turned on them and unplugged people.

Edit: “that guy” being Cypher, just checked the name

Personally hope they just recast and say fuck him tbh. Not many villains are on Kang’s level, and we’ve already seen from covid what happens when Marvel has to respond to a massive shift in plans.

Just saw it, honestly not too bad, I see why it’s like kinda mid cuz there wasn’t really much of a climax and not like, engaging in the same way some other stuff has been, but it’s a fine movie, if you ignore the standards of the MCU, imo. I may be biased by the mid-credits scene, but it was fun — and to me that’s more important than a lot of things. Not much character development or room to breathe though, which was a shame. And no resolution for the first two planets.

I found it fun too. I think the main problem which most people took though was that it really didn’t feel like an Antman movie. And Kang felt weak.

I think they’ll recast if needs be, cuz while the TVA is monitoring Kangs the TVA also clearly falls by the End of Time.

Yggdrasil by the way looked amazing.

Also “Centuries later” was great.

So no season 3, I’m guessing.

Amazing finale. Upped the stakes on what made Kang Kang, as well. He’s not just some guy who beat a couple of dudes off-screen as powerful as him, he has carefully cultivated a world where, functionally immortal, it took a god as powerful as him if not more powerful given the magic, willing to do what he would not, to “beat” him. And even then, he’s not really been beaten, simply replaced by someone doing what he could do, but would not for the risk it brought.

It does retoroactively also make Quantumania even weaker though. And I’m saying that as someone who found that movie alright — though certainly not nearly a “great” MCU movie. Technology aside, you’re telling me 616 Kang got outsmarted by Ant-Man? Like, Ant-Man is smart, but in the MCU he has certainly not been portrayed as nearly this smart. Or maybe they will pull him out of the probabilistic drive thing to start the Kang Dynasty and this was all planned and just poorly explained.

to be fair, from a Doylist point of view without that there is no show to be had lol. TVA becomes an entirely useless organisation unless it can work from beyond the multiverse, and the only way it can work from beyond the multiverse yet have change in it is if there is a dimension of time in the TVA.

Wait you can schedule posts? how?

The way I see it, there’s two dimensions of time: one being linear time within the TVA, and the other being the time that everything else experiences including us, which branches. The TVA therefore doesn’t branch, because it experiences a different axis of time. It’s self-consistent in that sense where the TVA’s time works the same always, and the time of everything else works the same always (if you ignore Cap), at least for now.

I really thought they were just going to go with the route of Sylvie realising it and then them time travelling back, didn’t expect the shift back to the time-slipping thing. Chekov’s gun strikes again.

With this power though, Loki is essentially more powerful than Kang, no? Able to go anywhere in time and space, and one of a kind so he doesn’t have to keep fighting Kangs the same way He Who Remains did, doesn’t have to keep pruning branches to prevent more Lokis with timeslipping because he is the only Loki with this power.

The way the music at the end didn’t even reach a climax it jsut kept building and building and then nothingness… holy

For some reason, thought this was loss for a second
