I admit I thought the same thing as I was reading, but then it occurred to me: Saldana (for example) was probably cast for her “exotic” (non-white) looks. So non-white = alien. Paint her green or blue to avoid the pesky “political” connotations of her actual skin color and voila! A sexy alien we can all be comfortable…

That or since she was in one of the biggest sci-fi movies (Avatar) and is now part of another long going, really popular sci-fi franchises (Star Trek) they hired her because she brings the geek cred. Like how many sci-fi/fantasy/horror movies went with Sigourney Weaver because OMG! Ripley!!!

I figure Saldana was cast as Gamora because she’s slim with a great, fit build and manages to be very athletic while keeping her seductive smoulder. And then they painted her green because Gamora IS green.

As cool as it is watching all of the individual armor pieces fly into one suit, I’d love to see the organic version in the next Iron Man movie.

How about Iron Man 4 introduces Prince Namor?

The stupidest thing about this particular instance of censorship is that the teacher is speaking about the artwork and the anatomy in the only proper way. She’s right- comparing O’Keefe’s work to “ladybits” or “peepees” or whatever is diminishing of both the art and of women in general and the girls in the class. It…

We live in a society where someone can lose their job for saying the proper name of a body part that at least half the population has.

I wasn’t actually disappointed, and I’m a huge Iron Man fan who really enjoys the Mandarin as both a foe and a rival to Tony. But I would like to see a full-powered Mandarin appear.

Yes please , Iron Man 4 The Ten Rings of the Mandarin

I have said before the it bears repeating.

I’m still waiting for RDJ and Shane Black to make “Kiss Kiss Bang Bang 2: Still Bangin’”

I’d love to see them make good on that tease in the Marvel One-Shot with Ben Kingsley and have the real Mandarin show up.

So why Marvel would feel the need to rush into the Death of Cap storyline

I just love the bit in the titles where he’s like “I am the fastest man alive” considering that every other week there’s another villain who’s faster than him, or he’s losing his speed.

And yes, still getting his ass kicked on a weekly basis.

So the man in the mask isn’t Barry’s dad then. So who’s left...the real Jay Garrick seems to be the only candidate.

His statement is basically a thought exercise in removing any agency on his part from the narrative.

If it takes you a 29-page letter to defend yourself... dude. You have way too much defending going on, buddy.

But her decision to shame me in the press and direct my ouster has destroyed my professional reputation.

You should watch Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story. Danny Rand is basically the role of Kane created and imagined by Bruce Lee and given to David Carridine.
