Hmm, Thor in a red leather jacket with a huge collar and lapels? Going for a Thunderstrike vibe, maybe?

May want to take another look at WWII German uniforms...

I wonder if she’s actually, you know, a queen. Thinking of Isis from the TOS episode Assignment: Earth.

It’s a shame that only about 30% of English is Latin based, then, and those rules don’t apply.

How [entitled fanboys] and [the internet] Ruined [fandom] Forever?

I mean...  I think we bottomed out with The Emoji Movie, so this could be considered an improvement?  Still awful, but we’ve done worse.

I honestly haven’t looked this forward to reading the X-Men since Grand Morrison’s run.  Like then, it feels very fresh, very different, and like what happens ‘matters’ (as much as anything can in a decades old comic book franchise).  As with Morrison’s stuff, it will eventually be watered down and everything will be

I dunno, the Tau don’t seem so bad (comparatively speaking). 

I suggest you watch the video linked above. Much of what you’re quoting as ‘fact’ is actually apocrypha.

Only the show and the first book in the series are called Game of Thrones... the source material is ‘A Song of Ice and Fire’, which can be interpreted a number of ways. North/South, Starks/Targaryens, White Walkers/Dragons, Winter/Summer...

But the most important thing to know is... Will Han shoot first this time?

Oh, but we do... Unlike all other international markets where Discovery is on Netflix... Discovery got licensed by a Canadian streaming service called CraveTV. Classic Trek is still on Netflix, but new stuff goes to CraveTV...  This was actually what I had in mind when I made the previous comment. :/

Which is unfortunate for all of us who live outside of the US and don’t have access to Hulu.  Best we can hope for is that there’s an agreement with another streaming service... but that means even more streaming fragmentation in international markets.

It wasn’t just a one man show, though. New ideas and talent came in with each film, and a lot of the narrative structure was crafted in the edits and script revisions.

The original trilogy was pretty much made up on the fly... Just sayin’...

Huh, I wonder what this means for the Toys R Us international assets that were already sold off.  The Canadian stores were bought in the firesale and continue to operate as Toys R Us.  I believe there are still Toys R Us stores in parts of Europe and Asia.

A little of column A, a little of column B. They were designed with STOVL aircraft in mind, but could be adapted to take a catapult as well. The Prince of Wales (the second in the class), and the proposed French variant were both supposed to be CATOBAR, but the Brits changed their mind when they saw the price tag, and

Funnily enough, Gundam IGLOO: The Gravity Front, episode 2 does a fairly good (for anime) take on this. For a show that’s all about how amazingly powerful mechs (supposedly) are, it still has an episode where tanks come out on top.

You would think that for someone so outraged at the supposed affront to a national icon he would be more familiar with the ideals it was meant to represent...

You joke, but once upon a time in the 80s when things were looking really bad for DC they almost asked Marvel to publish their comics for them...
