    I don't, but then again I disliked the film.
    I can't imagine that's true though.

    I would love to see an AF movie/show done by Kevin Smith. How about a radio/audio series, like Big Finish does with Doctor Who?

    Can you be more specific? When in the movie was it?
    I have the Blu-Ray, but I don't remember that.

    There were references to AF on a computer screen in #2, though.

    There have been:
    Numerous references on a computer screen in X-2 (Beta Flight at least, a couple of others. Apparently a couple of Alphan names on morgue drawers.)
    Wolverine: Origins had a character named Heather Hudson, who played a not dissimilar role to our Heather (found Logan, nursed him back to health). For some reason, her husband was named 'Travis', and they were played by Jonathan and Martha Kent.
    A newspaper in Ant-Man mentioned sasquatch (but the commentary made it clear the director only knew about bigfoot, not Walter).
    The Dept H mention on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D..

    That's all I can think of off the top of my head.

    Yeah, Puck. It'd be a lower-concept show, more like a Netflix show.
    Either that or an exploration of worlds of magic.

    I can visualize a Puck series. Him working at a bar, going up against someone like Deadly Ernest.

    We've basically seen Deadly Earnest (or at least his origin) on an episode of The X-Files, so that'd work.

    I have no idea where to put MCU rumours, but Sharon Stone says she will be in a future Marvel movie and a rumour is Abigail Brand.
    If true, could we possibly see S.W.O.R.D. or the Alpha Flight Space Station in the Captain Marvel movie?

    That's entirely possible. That'd be cool.

    I assume it'd be Peter Dinklage as Puck, if that's what we see. I'd like to see their Sasquatch!

    I wouldn't like it. I think his style and tone are completely unsuited to Alpha Flight.
    He's too grungy.

    The only 'advantage' to having him would be that he'd bring popularity - but I don't read an obscure comic because I'm chasing popularity. Nor Amy, but that's a different story.

    It just sort of came to me as I was writing.
