As someone who was thinking of making a kid soon, I think I might hold off a while longer. "Hey babe, why don't we do one more big vacation getaway before we 'pull the goalie'? Oh, you were thinking the same thing? Great."
(My wife and I have definitely had this discussion at least once before.)

I'm excited because there seem like there are a number of possibilities for how it plays out Wildcard Nic Cage movies have yielded lots of gold… and fodder. Either way, there's material to work with in the end. That's really all we can ask of him at this point.

We've reached the stage of Nic Cage's career where "starring in VOD heist movie with Elijah Wood and Jerry Lewis" doesn't even make me bat an eyelash. Ah, who am I kidding? I was there five years ago.

Well, it could need Commissioner Gordon if one (oh, say a hypothetical studio executive) is worried about the franchise performing well and decides the safest bet is to seed it with as much Batman and Batman-related characters and mythology as possible because there were 7 Batman movies released in 22 years that made…

Without giving away anything, I'll simply say she did a fine job.

I'm a few episodes ahead of this review, and even by episode 3, I agree, it's an improvement. Season 3 was too slow and low stakes for me. The slow disintegration of the Underwoods' alliance was well-done, but 13 episodes was a long time to watch it come to fruition.

It's a problem when reality becomes so puerile and inane that there's no good way to satirize it. It seems to me a problem that the A.V. Club's sister site The Onion has been running into for years now.

YUGE month for Gerard Butler! Starring in two of the shittiest looking CGI'd movies of the year in back-to-back opening weekends in February-March. It's like the anti-McConaissance. If he was doing another rom-com with Katherine Heigl, it'd be a trifecta!

Superficial, dumb complaint: I absolutely hate the Netflix version of the Daredevil mask. He looks like Midnighter crossed with Owlman.

Exactly. His work's not for everyone. A lot of it has to do with, as you say, insecurity, angst, inner turmoil, and so forth. There's a lot of chaos and sadness in many of his books — especially Low. That one in particular I understand why it could be a challenging read. But I really enjoy Greg Tocini's unique…

No prob. I realize some people have other things to do (like work or something) than write small dissertations on comics in comments sections. I just really enjoy the AV Club comics articles because there are a lot of smart fans who chime in.

Yeah, to each their own and all that. But I really didn't think it ever got that much better, and over the long haul, got worse, I think.

I don't think it ever got better. If anything, more convoluted and pointless.

It's funny, because his character got a lot of hate for being a bland boy scout in season one. Obviously that changed significantly (speaking cryptically so as not to be too spoiler-y). His character ended up being one of the few I really cared about and enjoyed. Coulson got increasingly tedious and bland to me. I do…

Gotcha.

I remember getting this album when released (my older cousin purchased it for me because Sam Goody wouldn't sell it to kids under 16 or 17 or whatever because of the parental advisory label). I was 13-years-old and thought it was the height of comedy. (In retrospect there is still some reasonably funny content on the…

I enjoy basically all of Remender's work. I am curious what you mean when you refer to "misogyny" — whether you mean in his work generally, or in Tokyo Ghost, specifically. I realize that Sean Gordon Murphy's artistic portrayal of Deby is pretty cheesecake. Whether that's artistic license or Remender's directive, who…

I think I've read multiple, conflicting explanations as to what Sun Beyond The Stars was actually supposed to be. I thought I recall there being implications the main narrative is not 100 percent complete. But maybe I misunderstood or am misremembering. (I actually spoke with Nick Pitarra at a convention last year and…

I'll agree with most that Daredevil is by far "best" from an artistic and production standpoint. Obviously the budget and the fact it's unencumbered by broadcast censorship makes all the difference. With that said, I think the first season was uneven. Like many, I'm not a fan of the actor playing Foggy. But damn, I…
