Wow, a secret organization that stands against the monsters that menace us from the shadows! This is an incredible and unique premise shared by only a few dozen different comic books, roleplaying games, and movie franchises!

I mean, I guess it's the DC Universe, so it's not…particularly odd that there is a museum exhibit featuring a frozen baby corpse, but it does seem a bit weird that they would just start doing experiments on it without even removing it from its display case.

It's easy to remember their names, for they are the chilling sound of our dooms!

It's just so listless and boring. Nothing means anything, nothing happens for any particular reason. Snyder has made exciting movies before, how did he fall down so hard here?

They don't call it Moxie for nothin'!

Most of the NYT article focuses on McFarland, full of odd info like the fact that “he always had a few thousand dollars cash in his swimsuit,”

I feel mildly embarassed to admit that I spent the entirety of Sunday watching movies. I watched The Nice Guys, The Revenant, Elysium, Keanu, Deadpool, and the first hour and forty minutes of Superman v. Batman before getting terminally bored and giving up.

There were times in the book when he definitely should not have been referred to by his childhood nickname but was (e.g., when the warden in prison is telling him about his wife's death), so it's definitely a little weird.

Yeah, calling her the comedy relief seems like a weird take on that character, unless you think being routinely confronted with the continuously rotting corpse of your dead wife who occasionally appears to tell you how miserable she is, hack up maggots, and once in a while commit some brutal murders on your behalf is

I believe it's typically used in order to get young children away from the house for an hour or so, so that the

They filmed the first X-Men in Toronto and Toronto has a pretty big zoo, so it's certainly possible. I can't find any confirmation one way or the other with a brief googling, but it wouldn't really be a headliner animal in Canada anyway.

Bizarrely, the only time I ever went snipe hunting as a child, we were explicitly told beforehand that snipes are not real and we would not be catching anything, then we went out with the little bags anyway. I can only assume it was some kind of sociological experiment regarding obedience.

I like the thought that they just shut down filming early that day. "Alright everyone, go home for the day, Hugh has to take a little field trip!"

Nobody's writing headlines about how James Marsden tore out one of his own eyes in order to better portray Cyclops, but he did.

It's the best possible way to spend a Friday.

Does it, uh, happen to mention which side of the Civil War General Launchpad was on?

Chicken's not vegan?

Well you're missing a key Tom Hardy role, then! He's Patrick Stewart's evil clone in that one!
