My hometown is having an interesting time with these sorts of thought trains. I grew up in an older suburb where traditionally people grew up and stayed there for generations (I had teachers in middle school who had my classmates' parents for students to give you an example). There's a fairly significant tension…

Fox is re-airing it on Friday night if you want to DVR or try to catch. Should be at 9 pm.

I saw it last night and heartily agree - LOVE this show so far. The pilot was tons of fun and as you mention, really didn't bother spending too much time laying the foundation when instead they could be making visual puns about headless horsemen crossing. I loved Nichole Beharie's performance and am keeping my fingers…

Do you think they'll ever release more features down the road? Trying to decide if I want to buy now or if I should wait. I'd read the same thing, but couldn't tell if GDT was saying no extra features EVER or no extra features on this release.

I may be the world's slowest runner, but those Saturday afternoons after my long runs (for me anything over 8 miles is long) were some of the happiest afternoons ever. I would lounge in the sun feeling so clean and content with the world. I mean, don't get me wrong the actual act of running multiple miles wasn't too…

It sounds like the serial killer comment was another parent (but still, HORRIBLE THING TO SAY) not Glenna. That said, I don't understand why Glenna was allowed to keep custody after she gave him away to strangers she met on the internet - she wasn't charged with anything and it doesn't seem as if social services…

Aside from the differences between the origin country rules (and it sounds as if before suspending US adoptions, Russia required multiple visits), it also looks like there's a difference in rules surround Hague Convention Adoption countries and non-Hague convention countries. The state department has more information…

I just ... here we have a kid (now adult) who has enough self-knowledge to know he needs help and actively asks for it and he's being denied because his foster parents don't "believe" in therapy? So rage inducing. This poor guy has been through so much and just keeps getting pushed down. Such a failure on the system…

It got worse. Dude is currently serving time for child pornography and the chat transcript with a law enforcement official is super suggestive (does not reference the kid specifically, but does outline his philosophy on having sex with children - in his book, a ok). Add that to the fact that the kid apparently spent…

This investigation is heartbreaking. I'm only on Phase II of series and I cannot deal with Glenna Mueller, who it's increasingly looking like dropped off her 10-year old foster son with a pedophile after emailing with a woman for a couple hours (who as it turns out had already lost 2 kids to protective services - one…

Thanks for the info! Sometimes I can't remember which characters count as x-men in the deal between Fox and Marvel. Also hadn't heard about a possible x-force movie - going to spend some time investigating.

Ugh, really? I couldn't remember if those were sold off along with F4 and X-men. Think there's any chance of them returning to Marvel ala the Punisher? I know a couple of characters have use it or lose it clauses (hence a remake of the F4 and Spiderman already)

I've spent all of my life in 3 of the Top 146 and the last 8 years in the top 15 most populated... No wonder I pay so much in rent

I hate Hank Pym with a burning passion, so please don't think I'm advocating for him to have his own movie! But I always kind of liked Janet - she's smart, she takes charge, and she seemed pretty realistic (to me at least) about trying to find the balance between "real" life and being a super hero. Her powers…

Do you think there's any possibility she could star in a Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D type situation? I don't know, she could be introduced in an episode where Agent Coulson and the gang are taking down someone with powers who is running amok, she comes in and kicks legal ass, then BANG, new legal show starring Jennifer who…

Do not play with my emotions this way. Don't mind me, I'll just be hyperventilating in the corner here.

Really? Any insight on the new Captain America movie? Seems like they're pushing the "we're really happy with it" message pretty hard (or at least a lot harder than the buzz surrounding the next Thor) but I can't tell if it's desperate buzz or just wanting to report some good news buzz.

You know who's also a classic Avengers character? Wasp. And so far everyone's been very silent if she's even going to be in the Ant-Man movie...

Dream female super-hero movie would be an Excalibur movie. I know we've only seen Faiza Hussian with powers for a couple issues, but she is just so cool! British-Pakastani healer who wields Excalibur and fights Dracula. How is there not a movie in there?

Marvel makes me so angry some times. I am a huge fan of MCU (marvel cinematic universe), but aside from some really badass supporting female characters (Jane, Pepper, Natasha) they don't give female fans much. Marvel merch for ladies? Usually relates to how we'd like to be saved or much more limited option (my most…
