The term "NPC" has been around since the 1970s.
Either her agent worked out a studio contract, or she's talented on the casting couch.
It's a shame this sequel didn't happen in the '90s or the '00s.
Anime is thriving just fine. Pokémon is the highest grossing media franchise of all time.
Dragons were a positive symbol to the Celts of Europe and the British Isles and Ireland. Later Christians demonized them. Remember, King Arthur's surname was Pendragon.
Meant its popularity wasn't at the same height.
By '88, I remember playing Pool of Radiance and Sid Meier's Pirates! at my friend's house on his PC clone. So yeah, we had moved on from primarily being interested in console games.
Yeah, you are remembering correctly, the Cabbage Patch craze had waned by then. And, as you know, Lite Brite was more of a '70s toy. The people who make these clearly didn't live through the '80s. Stranger Things particularly grinds my gears in this regard.
I was a teen in the late '80s--those kids are dressed like the very early '80s. You'd think there would be production and costume designers in Hollywood who are my age. Same thing with Stranger Things, it doesn't accurately capture the look or "feel" to me. Also they kept playing Obsession by Animotion which was from '84. New Wave songs weren't often in rotation on the radio by '88. Also heard "A Town Called Malice" by The Jam which was from '82, and was a bit more obscure in the US. I don't remember hearing it on pop radio; you'd have to have heard it on a college station.
You mean Neolibs. Leftists oppose IdPol.
He'll be replaced by a black female lesbian CG alligator in season 2.
Probably. Women were played by young men in Elizabethan and Jacobean theatres.
Why are you kink-shaming masturbating to cartoon characters?
I meant a theater production. An English professor told us that. I can't find reference to it, but I did find this all-black performance he staged. Perhaps that professor had his info confused? It was back in the early 90s.

They labelled him "alligator."
Gawain is a Cymric (Welsh) / Brythonic Celtic name, not English, by the way...
Orson Welles performed Othello on stage without makeup, and all the other actors were black.
She did it so Loki wouldn't have to sacrifice himself to maintaining the sacred timeline, at the end of time.
Because, 1) Kang was a major villain in the 60s comics they haven't covered in the MCU, 2) He said he was called "The Conqueror, 3) he's wearing Kang's colors, 4) he's a villain with the theme of time travel 5) He's wearing Kang's comic costume in the statue depiction, 6) those of us who are long time fans of the comics can figure out these things quickly.
He's Kang the Conqueror, from the 60s comics.
