Ha, the amount of words I've spent on Planetary in the comment section of this column.

Yeah, I was thinking about that when I wrote it and it still doesn't fill me with a lot of optimism.

I had to look up the specifics because I wasn't entirely sure but the standard height for a pilot is ideally between 66" and 74" with it going slightly lower or higher depending on other physical attributes (leg height, arm length, should width, that sort of thing). But my main thing with Carol still being relatively…

The last I heard, Johnson was writing a draft but that was extent of his involvement. One of the things that's bothering me about the Star Wars franchise is that there doesn't seem to be one real vision except for Disney, which just basically means synergy over story. I have hope that Rian Johnson will make a…

I'd settle for characters who do a little more than the absolute dumbest thing they could possibly do any given situation.

Although I think some of that might also have to do with the way Tony Scott puts together his films.

I mean, none of the actresses we're talking about are demonstrably tall. The tallest woman who's been suggested is 5'11" which is well within the standard requirements for a fighter pilot. Not to mention Carol is listed at 5'11".

I mean, you could make it work. They could be part of the same or similar accident involving the Kree (the origin of Monica's powers are loose enough, it could fit in a lot of places). And I like the dynamic over the last few years DeConnick and Ewing have given Carol and Monica. But then I'm of two minds here: 1.…

Yeah, you're really dealing with the absolute MCU diehards at that point.

I've always had trouble with Hank in relationships. Ever since I was a kid, he's always come off as a it asexual, but then I've always felt his character has been pretty inconsistent (recent annoyances with X-Men plotting notwithstanding). I also seem to be one of the few people who actively dislike Astonishing…

Also, for some reason, I'm deadset on Gugu Mbatha-Raw playing Monica Rambeau if she's ever introduced (*sigh* probably not though).

It IS a spiffy hairstyle.

The haircut she has now is a streamlined or cropped version of what she had after the redesign. The big problem her haircut had before, at least in terms of consistency, was that only Jamie McKelvie could really draw it in any way that looked decent (let alone fashionable). Anka basically did away with a lot of the…

I spend way too much time looking up an actress' height when she's suggested to play Carol. For some reason, I scoff when the actress in question is *only* 5'6". That may be a good height for some superheroes but not Carol Danvers (which is a roundabout way of liking Palicki choice). Look on the brightside, if she…

Are they still a couple?

Who isn't at this point?

WE'VE GOT TEDDY ROOSEVELT ON DRUMS!

And he may have been a dog.

I think he's supposed to be horrible. So, both are staying in their lanes, I suppose.

I think it's pretty obvious Ted Nugent is the opener.
