This is the way... to turn three episodes of a Disney+ show into a movie. The Mandalorian and Grogu is abridged!

I miss when Star Wars movies were bad enough to be interesting.

What a sad way to dishonor the legacy of Gerry Conway, the creator of the Punisher who died less than a month ago, and who famously said he was disgusted by law enforcement's embrace of the character. Even the Daredevil show (not produced by Bernthal) got this right.

Punisher: One Last Kill is a Republican fever dream. A home invasion where Frank Castle is given hours of lead time before it happens but he hallucinates nonsense until it sneaks up on him just so he can deal with it like any 2nd Amendment Warrior would have. Comic Book Frank would have set up a deadly Home-Alone nightmare for those guys.

This character isn't Frank Castle. He's Bernthal's "PTSD Ass Kicker Man" character, wearing Castle's skin.

Can't help but notice what kind of tattoos, out of the hundreds to choose from, are conspicuously absent from the huge guy in the coffee shop and the guy who stole the homeless marine's hat., despite them both being very visibly tattooed and shirtless.
