I can't believe we had to go through The Mummets, The Munnets and the unpronounceable The Muooets to get where we were last year, and the series is already over.

Quicksilver, Nightcrawler and Beast are (in the movie) minor characters, and Cyclops and McTaggart are not played by name actors suitable for a poster. Sophie Turner/Gray is a major character and actress but new to the franchise and would not be recognizable.

I could see Martin, at least, also going "Well, prophesies are sometimes bullshit." But I agree keeping to it is most likely.

I'm with you on all points, but my confidence in the Knight of Flowers-Frankenmountain matchup was way undercut by how broken and weak they've shown Loras in the past couple of episodes. Also, the leverage I would have thought the Faith would use to get Loras to fight is largely gone (since he would have done it for

It's reasonable logic. It's basically saying "What are they going to do with him now?"

It wasn't really even her joke. She was appreciating someone else's who-know-how-serious joke.

Well, I know a man with a penis named Daniel.

He needed them to put all the gash in the bag.

We really badly need to see the Frankenmountain in action. He's a walking fireworks factory. I would be tremendously disappointed if his first major battle were also his last.

Yeah, I'm not sure why we think Martin has some kind of soft spot for religious leaders and wouldn't have the same jaundiced, conniving view of people who gained power through that kind of manipulation rather than wealth. Of course it's strategic—look at the High Sparrow's smirk at the end of the Tommen/Margaery

Most people, and especially most quality-conscious moviegoers and reviewers, definitely think it's awful. But the opinion isn't universal: I quite liked it. I don't think it was great and I didn't like everything about it, but I did like Eisenberg's Luthor. I thought it was much better than Man of Steel, which I

Also, his enthusiasm for the material, and inability to understand, are both reflected extremely well in his films.

Press them both, "close door" isn't connected to anything.

He does, actually, and is in negotiations with Dance for a name swap, since it's a much better DJ name.

Apparently it is. It got way too expensive to stage the dancing or something.

This is key to understanding Trump. He is not running a presidential campaign to be president. He is running a publicity campaign of self aggrandizement for its own sake. Maybe becoming the nominee or maybe becoming president are side effects to a reality show he is staging to garner publicity for publicity's sake.

"Man, boobs are great! I sure hope you all heard that comma!"

Vision beaming looks dumb to me, and I would have preferred separate MCU and Spider-Man universes, so I would have definitely liked more human-level character interaction. Steve Rogers on a date would have definitely been a bonus.

You'll make guesses about what happens all day long, the spoiler—the thing that makes actually watching it feel a bit redundant—is in confirming it.

Yeah, which is really too bad. Of the places to give short shrift to, considering how much book time was spent there and by which characters, it's kind of lame.
