The ending was poor, but it wasn't a film that needed a good ending - the whole 'lonely immortal who's outlived everything he cared about' beginning, and sombre mood made the anticlimax sort of work, for me at least. Wolverine shrugging and killing some idiot wannabe villain, his character in the same place where he

'This has all happened before, and will all happen again'.

I'd race to watch that, even if the only explanation in the script was an opening monologue of 'You know that guy from Days of Future Past who hate mutants and invented the sentinels? I'm his mutant twin brother! We have angsty family origin stories and stuff.'

Venom was a bigger than usual problem because there's too many similarities between the Harry Osborne story and the Venom story (as in the comics version). Venom/Spidey relationship is like a 'crappier drama due to less personal connection / better action due to Venom's cool power set' re-run of Harry and young Spidey.

Actually you're both wrong. It IS the world, but it's how we see all Americans, not just the left. You're responsible for 81% of the world's wars since WW2. You overtook the Nazi regime's civillian deathcount decades ago. You murder young black men in the street and then complain when other countries don't get antsy

The most hilarious part about it is that it's a mistake that nobody who read even a small portion of 1984 could make. Big Brother isn't an actual character who converses with Winston, it's just the name of the party's official announcement + surveillance system.

I agree with you…..but there's an irony to Morgan's comments. Yes, McGregor is just an actor. If there's one thing that almost all of us have agreed on after the last 20 US elections (as in, we knew this shit 100 years ago, but Hollywood keeps doing it anyway), actors spouting idiocy about politics does their

Competent? Do you remember Bush Jnr?

In fairness, if potential immigrants were comprised of the species encountered by the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 10th docs, a Trumpian policy would make a lot more sense. I mean, give every episode a number and roll a dice. You've got about a 2 in 100 chance of rolling Silurians or Ice Warriors (who will both still go all-out

Hate to be THAT guy, but someone has to point out that the villain in Doctor Who: The Face of Evil is eventually revealed to have been directly created by the Doctor's own hubris. Hey! It fits all sides of the current Trump criticism!

Just an observation here. There seems to be an assumption that his was written for a US audience. Most Swedish (and scandinavian generally) music is produced for local consumption.

HEY! As a guy who trod the boards professionally for a couple of years (admittedly, in pure 'pretty boy' roles that ended once I got to my 30s and needed actual talent), I'll ask you to bear in mind that there's an entire British tradition (dominant here in Australia), where you play the LINES and leave all that

It's also a product of the work that child actors get. Need to remember that, with the exception of a few 'break-through' gigs (a 1 episode supporting role for 97% of actors, a 4-6 episode recurring supporting role for the next 2.999% and a 'series regular for a few years per decade' for the rest) most of a screen

It's an authentically karmic talent of his, given that his other talent is taking a dumpster fire of a film and making it rather watchable (So I married an Axe Murderer, Austin Powers (the good ones…okay okay the FIRST TWO GODAMMIT) where if you just read the script without Myers' and Seth Green's performances (and

As far as this show's continuity is concerned, clearly Kara is leagues more powerful than Barry, though apparently slower.

In fairness, they did spend a whole year battling a guy who does inventive things with a freeze ray gun, and who, despite having no metahuman powers whatsoever, managed to consistently beat Barry. She pretty much just had to copy Snart,

In fairness, Reverb and Cisco also have a pretty great 'Are you turning me to the Dark Side?' 'Yeah, is it working?' conversation.

I still kind of take issue with Batman being childhood friends with a bunch of his rogues gallery/love interests. It's the kind of thing you'd think might come up in conversation occasionally as adults.

I'm just here to express my disappointment that this article did not involve EITHER Doctor Who OR Doctor Doom.

My views are pretty much old-school class consciousness and universalism - about as far removed from identity politics as you can get. But….did everyone misread 'Tinder' for 'Twitter' here?
