Star Wars? The series that made a remake and called it a sequel? When did it start upending the status quo?

The other week I mentioned to my girlfriend how every stand up set I have ever seen will include the comedian say something mundane for the set up (i.e., "I have a dog, and I need to walk it every day") and there will ALWAYS be a portion of the audience that laughs at it for reasons I don't understand.

I had avoided spoilers and just about any news I could, and I had assumed that The Universal Church of Truth would be the villain and would want to kill Ego for religious reasons. I mean, that was kind of also the case, but I had been assuming that Ego wouldn't be the main villain, but wasn't surprised in the least…

*pushes up glasses* Actually, the wire used wasn't electrified, it was heated using one of the flamethrowers. *pushes up glasses again*

I found a wikipedia article about "weird west" but most were horror (like Ravenous) as opposed to fantasy (like *shudder* Jonah Hex).

A faithful adaption would be terrible. You could get away with it for MAYBE the first three books, but it would all come crashing down horrible by Wizard and Glass and stay abysmal to the bitter, disappointing end. The fact that it's clearly not being faithful is the only thing giving me any hope that I won't hate…

"The second taping was one of the centerpieces of the festival, as Masters Of Horror founder Mick Garris interviewed the legendary Roger Corman for his Shock Waves podcast."

Wait… I had something for this…

Of the half dozen or so people I know who saw it, I am the only one who didn't like it. The entire premise was that the shark was drawn to the area by the dead whale and then spends its whole time attacking humans for some reason. AV Club just had an article last week showing what sharks really do when they find a…

Nope, 28 Days Later came out in 2002, the Dawn remake came out in 2004. I remember reading (but cannot 100% confirm) that part of the direction the zombie actors in Dawn were given was to act like the infected in 28 Days.

I know they'll exist, but I'm really hoping that they're overwhelmed by the people that recognize the combination of "it's not the right time for that discussion" and "despite probably being overrated, Stan still had a HUGE impact on comics."

Stay away from Deadpool and Legion. WAY too preachy.

I love James Gunn, but I'm honestly curious; what did you find fresh about it? 28 Days Later had already reignited the running zombie trend, aside from a pretty disappointing zombie baby and a respectable first 10 minutes, I really don't know that was fresh about it.

Yeah, I read that Goyer was involved and thought "So… they're shooting for WORSE than the much maligned 1987 version?" (Full disclosure, I love the 1987 version).

No, they said that it would have a spoiler in the title.

I… is pointing out the inane behavior of using the "[insulting adjective]+[person/company/institution that Trump doesn't like]" format followed by copying it with "Asshat Scott Adams" intentional?
