    Wow, Doctor - again, had no idea. The shots of Hunter are deja vu (or should be the other way around). Thanks for sharing that. Will definitely check out that movie.

    Lovely. What's her full name, if you don't mind sharing?

    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    Nooooooo. I've been expecting it for awhile. Bracing for it, really. I knew a huge chunk of my childhood would pass with him. Damn.

    Golden Era Women's Names

    Well named, I'd say. :nod: And not just for the wedding story material!

    Agent Carter

    Oops, forgot to come by and share my 2c after the finale. Though, essentially, I agree with Doctor Strange's assessment. It felt it was a little bloated with plot and a little anti-climatic after the previous week's well paced offering - literally anti-climatic as the Big Bang didn't happen at...

    Agent Carter

    Don't know if it's the interview I last linked to or not, but a recent question after the last show was basically "Does that mean Bradley Whitford will be new chief now?" and the showrunner said "Absolutely not". Which I'll not take as anything personal against Bradley. lol But I imagine Peggy...

    Agent Carter

    I suspect Dottie won't actually be killed (one of those "loose threads" the showrunner mentioned?) - She has too much potential to be Peggy's Arch Nemesis. We'll see! Yep, poor "Eli". I wonder if the actor has gotten accustomed to period clothing, that if you tried to put him jeans and t-shirt...

    Would you spend a few days in the rural 1930s?

    I can't pretend to commit right away, but I'm definitely intrigued. Add some chickens around the yard, and you might pass it off as my grandparent's farm in Kentucky. ;) What time of the year do you hope to do this? Will cabins be shared among the attendees? Where will the (period...

    Agent Carter

    Last night's 1X07 ("Snafu") was great - easily top 3 for me, maybe even my favorite so far! It really kept up the tension; I'm really loving the buddy-ness of Jarvis and Peggy (their banter is reliable comic relief that actually makes me laugh); poor Dooley got humanized thoroughly by his...

    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    Adding the NY Times obit on Lizabeth Scott. I've not ever been a big follower of noir - and unfortunately the first Scott film I saw was "Dead Reckoning" with Bogart, which isn't going to help me avoid the Bacall associations - but I have enjoyed her work. 92 was a pretty good run.

    Marvels Agent Carter Fashion

    I fear I don't have the moxie to pull off that hat. lol But it's really nice that they're offering it.

    Marvels Agent Carter Fashion

    Thanks for that link, MNV. I liked this theory: "Our prediction is that Peggy Carter's costumes will remain trapped in the 1940s while other characters begin to adopt new fashions. Nicely symbolic of her lingering attachment to her wartime life." And only hope we get enough seasons to find...

    That was a truly nice touch. And proof that they respect the source material, and have researched it, even whilst changing it.

    Agent Carter

    You're officially my archivist of Marvel lore now. :) Where have you seen a sneak peek of next week's ep, please? I didn't watch broadcast so didn't see a preview then and can't find a clip now on YouTube. Do you know where I might find it? EDIT: Never mind! Found it. I was putting in the...

    Agent Carter

    Frunobulax, Thanks for that info! Yes, Dottie's fight style is pretty familiar, eh? I think I read somewhere from the showrunners that Dottie is a completely new character to the MU. But they're pretty tight lipped otherwise. I'm just assuming the program kept on going through the cold war and...

    Agent Carter

    FF, I’m not taking your comments personally, so no worries there. But let me give you some context before giving my reply to your thoughts. I’m very much an advocate for looking at history with clear eyes and an open mind. Quite frequently what has been handed down to us as fact can be quite...

    Show us what you've made!

    I'm jealous of both your skill and your output, and I'm REALLY impressed with those shoes!! They're a work of art.

    Agent Carter

    Yes, but did she work in an ultra macho environment like the SSR is portrayed? I dare say the military or especially an intelligence agency (like the CIA) would be a harder environment to crack as a woman, then and even now. Regardless, like we've been saying, this is a comic book come to life...

    Agent Carter

    Probably enjoyed last night's the most so far, after the premiere. It had great pace and very little filler. "Dottie" was appropriately crazy-eyed creepy, yet, when she shackled herself to the bed to sleep I cringed for her. I expect there will be some moral tussle about this abused and...
