Who is buying Wolverine Console in this economy???!?!? Ranking the Velaryon Bloodline And Who Got New Console Money These Days | Do It For the Lore | Ep.7 feat. @naliaah.bsky.social , @omarholmon.bsky.social + @williamevanswrites.bsky.social Watch here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ayDw...

Which leads me to my least liked part of the first episode, the first five minutes. Like...the Stewart family dynamic. Let's just say, I'm very familiar with some Black military families and...I'm not sure who that intro was for. Well, I know who it wasn't for, lol. I won't go deep into the violence

So, some unofficial thoughts on #Lanterns pilot. Uh, I liked it, mostly. It's prestige TV for sure. Good performances. Definitely intriguing. I don't think the Aaron Pierre colorism conversation is coming up again, not because anything changed. But because its been a long time and he's really good.

This is @williamevanswrites.bsky.social signing off for the night. Keep that power ring charged homies #demlanterns #blackestnight

That's a solid ass first episode. Not sure we hitting this green pack ever week, but we will definitely be covering the show. @omarholmon.bsky.social is going to write the first review this week so look out for that on the website.

Dude, they put Hal in the ice and snow and he ain't coming out of that like Aang. No ring either. Gotdamn. #blackestnight #demlanterns

Fam, Hal saw that this Nebraskan wasn't racist about Obama and KNEW he wasn't from here. Nebraska gotta get your electoral college in order #demlanterns #blackestnight

John slept with grandma in a bar parking lot and never got her name. I respect BOTH of their Gangsta! #demlanterns #blackestnight

Every time they cut to John, it feels like a Get Out situation. #demlanterns #blackestnight

LOL, William Macon said, not we not racist fighting the government, we're xenophobic homie! #blackestnight #demlanterns

John is ON THE JOB. You gotta be a cold dude to get busy in the parking lot wearing your mentor's power ring while he's being taken to jail #demlanterns #blackestnight

Hal: Hey, they might beat me up bad, but don't jump in John: Yeah, I had never planned on it B, godspeed. #demlanterns #blackestnight

John telling Hal he should've had to interview for the ring is wild as hell. #demlanterns #blackestnight

Honestly, if you told me the over / under on Aaron Pierre running on this show was 15 minutes, I would've taken the under. But we got there eventually. #demlanterns #blackestnight

Gotta love when the small town sheriff actually knows what she's doing. #demlanterns #blackestnight

John: I think she hates your guts Hal: Yeah, but its the way she hates them Whew, that's the pinnacle of a confident white dude. Hal, you living this reputation homie! #demlanterns #blackestnight

Wait...so... this bastard just takes off for Nebraska and I gotta 1) Buy an airline ticket 2) Rent a car 3) Deal with asshole cops When I get this ring dawg... #demlanterns #blackestnight

Not going to lie, a backup of myself from 10 years ago would be wildly out of his depth too. Your boy was fit too. Could run a mile no problem...you know what, back to #demlanterns #blackestnight

Its kind of wild how they are treating John becoming a Green Lantern like he's taking over 2nd shift at Waffle House #blackestnight #demlanterns

Washed up Hal got the personality of a downed telephone pole. #blackestnight #demlanterns

Um...what kind of...did this negro just shoot an apple off of John's head?! Stewart gonna need a pysch eval before he is allowed near a firearm for me fam. #blackestnight #demlanterns

Nah man, your Black brothers are not going to let you just stay locked in watching the TV late so you all could catch an ass whupin #blackestnight #demlanterns

Hal Jordan not making himself known to the world until he stopped a meteor is very on brand Hal diva behavior #blackestnight #demlanterns
