    Okay, so I’m working through a backlog, and right now I’m only on this episode of the podcast. I have a few thoughts about what had been discussed this far.

    1. The differences between earthbound inhumans and the inhumans on the moon and their respective terrigenesis was explained pretty well (I thought) by a line from Dr. Declan. He noted that Black Bolt was different from the other inhumans he had studied to this point, in that he was pretty much a “pure-blooded” inhuman, as opposed to the others who had trace amounts of human DNA mixed in with their inhuman DNA. So, the hybrid inhumans generated a rocky cocoon for their terrigenesis, while they inhumans from Attilan did not create the cocoon.

    2. One of the big themes of the show is that it deals with privilege. I wonder if so much of the negative reaction to the show is somewhat due to the way it challenges the ideas of privilege, and how an awareness of how subtle it is, and how it can be evident, even when we are not aware of it. Media is the one who seems to have the hardest time with privilege, but (Spoilers!) By the end of the series, she seems to come to terms with the consequences of her sense of privilege, and is ready to try to put it behind her.

    3. It is still the weakest of the MCU television shows to date, but I disagree that it is full out terrible. There are some interesting things to see here. It is obvious that the producers made the decision to spend the FX budget of Lockjaw, and not Medusa’s hair. They most likely couldn’t do both, so they choose the obvious fan favorite.

    4. Metropolis is a classic if science fiction film, and anyone who watches it a 4x speed is a heretic. I agree it is slow in places, but that is due to the convention of the time. I find it immeasurably more watchable and less weird than 2001. The best version is the nearly fully restored version (I think there is less than five minutes of the film now considered lost). If you don’t think you can watch that version, try Giorgio Moroder’s edited version (from 1983), with a rock and roll soundtrack. You can follow the story okay, and they made the decision to convert the intertitles to subtitles to pick you the pace. They also colorized or tinted some scenes. That may be the way to go. But I think you need the experience of watching the original. Can you tell that I’m passionate about Metropolis?
