Taylor Lautner would gladly be grouped with those actors. When you are stuck doing netflix movies with Adam Sandler, things ain't looking good.

But don't you think that gets rid of the nuance and moral complexity when you just make him an unhinged villain, and hurts the story? Also, he hasn't really been depicted like that in over 30 years.
That seems kind of like arguing that Deadpool should be the evil mercenary that attacks X-Men since Liefeld created him…

Really liked the episode, but the Punisher indiscriminately shooting up a hospital seemed a bit much.

Yeah, I think when you see him in the same show as people like Vincent D'Nofrio, Charlie Cox, and Jon Bernthal, his bad acting kind of sticks out.

Yeah, that scene with Frank in the hospital bothered me. The Punisher doesn't carelessly shoot a shotgun around civilians, and wouldn't try to kill Karen. I feel like they are trying to get past of his moral complexity and make him more of a villain. I realize the show diverges from the comics, but the…

I would also like for someone to save IO9, it is usually pretty decent. Gawker especially (but also Jezebel and Deadspin) should die in a fire. They really are the worst examples of prioritizing page views over everything else.

I don't see a way you could get rid of profit driven media without destroying the First Amendment. I am not trying to be snarky, but is there any other democracy out there that has prohibited private profit-driven media? It seems like it would require a ton of government oversight and interference to enforce.

Without getting into the horrible racial, gender, and religious discrimination of the era, capitalism in the USA actually worked pretty great from 1940 to the late 1970's. When we had strong union membership, progressive taxation, cheap higher education, and a higher minimum wage, millions entered the middle class.…

That book is one of the few comics not drawn by Greg Land where the art is so bad it hurts the rest of the comic. There might not be a defined look for Squirrel Girl, but she should not look like a boy with down syndrome.

Yeah, it does annoy me how studio executives try to claim there just aren't good American actors when they know that is more a matter of saving money than anything else.

The problem wasn't that they rebooted, it was how many of the new comics were awful. DC decided they wanted everything to be super dark and edgy (hello surly Captain Marvel, goodbye Plastic Man). Batman, Wonder Woman, Jonah Hex, Demon Knights, and Red Lanterns turned out good, but almost everything else was bad.

I agree that there are some artistic horror movies that would be better if they did not try to totally eschew the gore/scares of more typical horror.
I think part of the the problem is that even a fantastic horror movie like John Carpenter's The Thing won't get major awards because there is such a bias against…

Yeah, I would go back a bit further and say the golden age started in 2006, but agree that 2011 was the last year it was great. After that a bunch of the best writers left for the dissolve, and the site got more political. Series like "My Year of Flops" were great, and I don't think the site ever recovered its charm.
…

I think Gibson would have worked from an acting perspective, but his offscreen behavior would have been such an enormous distraction it would take away from the movie.
I can overlook the offensive remarks (I'm Jewish and I still went to go see Apocalypto and loved it), but I can't overlook him hitting and threatening…

Actually, a member of the Aryan Brotherhood has been in solitary federal confinement since 1983, and he actually led to the creation of Supermax prisons.

Other than the cheddar biscuits, Red Lobster is really awful.

The original and superior cut kept it ambiguous, and I assume that it was they will be going from. In the book Deckard is also a human.
I saw the Final Cut recently, and I think it made it much clearer that Ridley Scott made Deckard a replicant.

I am coming at this from the perspective of a white guy, but I imagine black people are getting tired of how many movies starring black people are either sports or music biopics.

One reason the Flash can be hard to write in the comics (I think Waid is on the recent writer to really do a great job) is that he is so damn powerful. When you can move faster than anyone other than Superman and alternate flashes, it is hard to create storylines.

I agree with you on Gustin. I think one reason he does not get any credit is that the writers often do him no favors. It was painful watching him refuse to tell Patty his identity after every one of his close friends already knew.
