Hang on hang on hang on… I watched like 90% of that movie and am pretty sure that Godzilla isn't in it for more than brief glimpses which are quickly cut away from.

Not sure if I'm being baited, but Marvel and Fox reached a deal for Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch to be allowed in either franchise as they are as much if not more a part of Avengers canon as X-Men.

I guess the little quiet art-house flick that could is finally going to get tossed to the wayside this weekend in exchange for this mass produced crowd pleaser.

See! SEE!!! People called me crazy when I told them that The Sopranos was directly linked to the success of Blade, but who's laughing now?!?

I don't want to lose Homestar, but frankly Flash is buggy as hell and notoriously riddled with security holes. The sooner it's gone, the safer the internet will be.

I enjoyed that much more as a fan of Family Feud than as a huge fan of Marvel comics and their in-house movies.

And you could tell from Chris Evans' reaction that he knew that they were supposed to show the other answers and was disappointed that it wasn't happening.

Additionally, I think there may be a certain Godfather drugs aspect to it; he knows crime will exist, but believes that if he is the one guiding the crime then it won't be as bad. I definitely got that vibe from how he feels about Nobu. He's allied with him because Nobu is there either way, so better to be working

I also have to applaud the approach of taking something from the shared universe as a surrogate for 9/11 instead of trying to use 9/11. First, there's clearly the timing aspect of it which it still stuns me to think that it happened nearly 14 years ago. But second, I appreciate that they now have carte blanche to

Pfshhhh… even if Nolan had been allowed to film brutal fight scenes, he clearly never figured out how to.

I see what you're saying, but to a large degree the devil is in the details (no pun intended, but now I wish I had intended it).

Ditto. That he essentially gets introduced on a failed date seemed like an odd choice. I like what they do with the character, and whenever he starts feeling too human, too weak, he does something to reinforce just how strong his position actually is.

He does, but the movies always presented it as an afterthought and that his main avenue for cleaning up the city was punching one person at a time. The public image he was maintaining for Bruce Wayne was that of a spoiled selfish playboy. He didn't even try to reform things using the billion dollar advantage he had,

I'm sorry, but how the hell am I supposed to take this seriously when the protagonist is a Hufflepuff?

I know, how unrealistic is it that he'd have Matt Murdoch as his lawyer when he's cousins with Jennifer Walters?!?

… I like to imagine how the people behind the optioning of The Dark Tower talk about how they love it and want to make a movie series of it and get all excited. Then they start talking about how they would film it, how the pacing would be, how they would handle the long stretches of absolutey nothing at all

Is it wrong for me to say that Daredevil is like what Batman Begins should have been? The one man mission to clean up the city, rooting out the corruption, except that it's better, more developed corruption and the hero has more of an excuse for not just using his billions philanthropically.

Yeah Babadook! I get that we're at a point where that movie is divisive, but for my money that's easily one of the top ten movies I've seen in the past decade.

How dare you try to have a positive take of what other movies are actually good! This is AV Club, damn it, we're supposed to tear stuff down!

Sorry, but ParaNorman wasn't even the best supernatural stop motion children's movie that came out in the past decade. That honor firmly belongs to Coraline.
