Weird episode, terrible if you care about the MCU stuff, pretty OK if you care about the story of India being colonized and separated by the British...which I do!

It all starts in a little cabin with a piece of plywood, a camera and a dream...

Speaking of video games, Nathan is super into Mass Effect again and Paul is disappointed in Resident Evil Village speedruns (and wonders about them all in general due to it).

2021-04-2439 minThe Pixel ResponseThe Pixel Response: Episode 154 – COVID-99Nathan is back and in an extremely good mood. Is it medication? Is it profound happiness found within his life? Who knows? He talks about his turn around in his mental health over the last year, how COVID impacted other problems he was dealing with and, of course, the art of Sumo Wrestling.
Also, apparently Mario 35 was one of the best battle royale games? Is this hyperbole? Do we even know what that word means anymore? We catch up on some basic things, find out what weird crimes have happened near our homes, discuss the finer points...

The Pixel ResponseThe Falcon & the Winter Soldier: Episode 5 – Truth recapJohn Walker messed up. But he ain't giving that shield back without a fight. Too bad it's hard to hold onto a shield with a broken arm. After getting a slap on the wrist, he meets up with a strange character played by Elaine (and that's all she'll ever be to me). Bucky leads the Wakandans to Zemo, who's paying respects to the Sokovia memorial (since he's the nicest villain ever now) and there's nothing left to do but fix that damn boat up!
Too bad the Flagsmashers are planning their biggest terrorism target yet, otherwise this...

The Pixel ResponseThe Falcon & the Winter Soldier: Episode 4 – The Whole World Is Watching recapAyo wants Zemo but allows Bucky to get what they need for 8 hours. Thank god in that time they're able to find Karli and the FlagSmashers, reason with her, mess it up, lose her, lose all the Super Soldier Serum and get their asses kicked. John Walker is back to screw everything up by being the world police he thinks he is but all is saved when the Dora Milaje come and beat him within an inch of his life. Too bad that crazy Zemo gets away... again.
Oh, and of course John Walker is able to...

The Pixel ResponseThe Falcon & the Winter Soldier: Episode 3 – Power Broker recapThe dynamite duo decide to talk to Zemo and, after very little deliberations, help him break out of prison since he seems like a pretty alright guy now. Actually, he just seems to know where he can get information about The Flagsmashers so with little hesitation it's off to Madripoor to talk to the criminal underground to get info they might have without offering anything in return (which always works out well).
Luckily, an old friend is hanging out in the city and together they find the creator of the Super Soldier Serum and get a lead...

The Pixel ResponseThe Falcon & the Winter Soldier: Episode 2 - The Star-Spangled Man recapThe new Captain America is here! John Walker does his rounds as the new Capt while Bucky is having none of it. He meets up with Falcon and hilarity ensues; they get the shit kicked out of them, visit an old super soldier and one of them gets arrested!
Also, we meet the leader of the Flagsmashers and get an inside look on who they are...

The Pixel ResponseThe Falcon & the Winter Soldier: Episode 1 - New World Order recapWe're here, in a post WandaVision world to catch up with Sam "The Falcon" Wilson and Bucky "Winter Soldier" Barnes as they learn to deal with a world that either hates or forgot them.
As the world suffers the loss of Captain America, so too do his friends have to learn to cope. Worst of all, the world is seeing terrorist activity and unrest it hasn't before. Hopefully, the remaining members of The Avengers can fix things... or themselves.

The Pixel ResponseWandaVision Episode 8 – “Previously On” recapWe learn more this week about Agnes' true self and her origins in the universe. In regards to origins, what the hell happened to Wanda to get her where she is now? Well, let's talk about that... Witch Psychology is now in session.
Also, things are about to heat up as Hayward brings to life the White Vision.
Here is this horrific comic panel I mentioned in the episode:

The Pixel ResponseWandaVision Episode 7 - "Breaking the Fourth Wall" recapBig revelations come to light. We get the birth of a superhero. We get information about who's pulling strings. Most importantly, Hank was right from episode 1 somehow.
Surprising amount of important stuff happening in a TV show for the whole MCU to come!

The Pixel ResponseWandaVision Episode 6 - "All-New Halloween Spooktacular!" recapThe 90s were a weird time for TV...
It's Halloween season in Westview and the Maximoffs go out in style with some recognizable outfits as their costumes! The kids learn more about their powers, as S.W.O.R.D. makes some stupid moves to try to deal with the Wanda menace (that don't end up well for them).

The Pixel ResponseWandaVision Episode 5: “On a Very Special Episode…” recapIt's the 80's! The twins are causing quite a commotion for the new parents Wanda and Vision; luckily, they're able to take care of themselves! After all, Wanda can't possibly control what everyone does! Least of all, her children!
In the outside, Monica and the crew have a whacky idea on how to communicate with the show!

The Pixel ResponseWandaVision Episode 4: "We Interrupt This Program" recapThe real world exists! We finally get some answers starting from the "unsnappening" on Monica Rambeau, S.W.O.R.D.'s involvement and are able to make some theories on what the hell is going on in Westview (which doesn't exist, apparently).
Lots of speculation talk in this one! Also, Kat Dennings steals my heart all over again.

The Pixel ResponseWandaVision Episode 3: "Now in Colour"Wanda's pregnancy is going alone well... and fast! The doctor assumes she still has a few months left so it comes to a shock for us all when she goes into labour shortly after he leaves; causing neighbourhood outages and water pipe bursts in the process. Luckily (or unfortunately), Geraldine comes by to give a hand but she seems to know more than she should...

The Pixel ResponseWandaVision Episode 2: "Don't Touch That Dial"Things are definitely not all what they seem with this strange show as the second episode appears to take place in the 1960s and, while hilarity ensues when Vision accidentally swallows a piece of gum and gets intoxicated for the community magic show, Wanda is seeing red dealing with the Queen Bee of the housewife committee.

The Pixel ResponseWandaVision Episode 1: "Filmed Before a Live Studio Audience" recapThe MCU finally makes its way to the small screen with the first of many "made for TV" miniseries to span the canon of individual characters from the movies we love. Starting with WandaVision, a series that takes place after the events of Avengers: Endgame starring the title roles of Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch and Vision in... a 1950s sitcom?

The Pixel ResponseThe Mandalorian Chapter 16: The Rescue recapIt's time. Moff Gideon is within reach. Mando and his allies rally together with plans to save Baby Yoda, capture Gideon and obtain the Darksaber in one fell-swoop. And you know plans never go sideways, right?
Thankfully, there are those who answer the call when rescue is needed...

The Pixel ResponseThe Mandalorian Chapter 15: The Believer recapThe enemy of my enemy is my friend. Or something? I dunno, Bill Burr is back as Mayfeld though and as the only character able to provide information on where Moff Gideon is gets a lot of screen time with Mando as they infiltrate an Imperial mining base looking for information.
