How much and what data are you looking to keep?
I think that’s key to the success of future superhero movies. Deadpool is a R-Rated comedy, which gives Deadpool some novelty and keeps his character feeling fresh. Winter Soldier was a spy thriller, there was that X-men horror movie a few years ago (IDK if it’s good, never saw it), the new joker movie is apparently a musical.
These are all different genres just with a superhero filter over them. The problem with the MCU as a whole is that they all feel the same and all the characters feel the same.
People are superhero’ed out
Deadpool 3 just had the 6th largest opening weekend of all time (and it’s R-rated). People will go see good movies period, the MCU just hasn’t been very good lately.
I wonder why there’s no Pacific NATO equivalent. China seems on the brink of invading a different country like every week.
IDK why people hate on Wikipedia links so much. Most wiki pages provide sources at the bottom of the page and are annotated, the [12] at the end.
If you live by a Micro Center, their house brand is pretty good.

Yes, I’m waiting for the investigation Linus paid for.
If your just a Linus fanboy I guess there’s no point in continuing this conversation. I wish you the best of luck on life though 🖖
You’re waiting for an investigation that the accused party paid for?
He came over to my corner and started BERATING HER. Calling her insane, mentally ill, an attention seeker, and just digging into this poor woman who had felt wronged by him.
You really think Linus would admit to doing this if the investigation he paid for and controls said he did do it? That sounds incredibly naive to me.
What evidence would you need?
An investigation by who?
What evidence do you need?
What evidence would you need to believe her? At least one other former staff member (Colin) said
@suuuoppp’s (Madison) posts today in are line with what I remember hearing back when we were colleagues, and it takes mad huevos to post that.
Other former LMG employees like Maxine at the very least liked the tweets where she claimed these things.
Linus held a staff meeting about how to handle HR related issues right after Madison quit. Even though he responded to her accusations by saying her had no idea this was going on.
And if that’s not good enough for you, again what evidence do you need to believe her?
- As far as I know, no legal charges where made or will be made. So the only investigation will be the one he himself paid for and he doesn’t have enough credibility for my to believe him even if he said everything was false.
- What what evidence would you personally need to believe that Madison isn’t just making it up?
It did not matter if I spoke to someone with evidence of an abuse of power, or inappropriate workplace behavior, it was considered tattle taling.
I was actually called a tattle tale
I was told I was bossy, when I was trying to be assertive. (like I was asked to do)
I was told I was arguing, when I was trying to discuss my point of view.
I was told to “calm my tits”, “stop being such a bitch”, and other comments to similar effects.
Sounds like he runs a great company.
The sexual harassment stuff didn’t help either.

- I remember all this stuff was on Twitter(which I don’t have) and other social media making it difficult to track down. If I can, I’ll post more later.

- Here’s a thread about Maxine (and others) liking Madison tweets. Maxine also made a somewhat cryptic video right after Madison quit.

I think it’s also important to note that not one current or former LMG employee has come out disputing any of Madisons claims. On the other hand, Linus (or LMG) had been caught lying as per the Gamers Nexus reporting.
No, she never named anyone specifically afaik. LMG isn’t so large that she didn’t have access to speak with Linus directly though. Also multiple former LMG employees corroborated everything she said about her experience working there.
That stuff was always there. It’s all Elong, customers accepted the poor quality to buy an electric car and save the environment. But now there are many better options and Elong is just insulting that very same customer base so he can be an edgelord because he… IDK is sad inside or what ever dumb reason he does what he does.
