I listened to it too, thought the stuff on close up battle was great but a weirdly long divergence from the main story line. That's okay I'm sure we'll pick up where we left off in what….. October?

Kevin Costner's criminal level Boston Accent stopped the Cuban Missile Crisis.

Somebody in the writer's room was in AA.

No he's thinking "who the hell cast this ugly kid." Then he finds out his brother is on The Andy Griffith Show that films down the hall so he was available cheap thanks to Rance Howard - Hollywood's most benevolent screen Mom.

Tell me it's Mytzlplk! Andy Serkis wasn't hanging around WB 18 months ago by any chance was he? What a tonal shift that would be.

The marvel movies work for one reason: Casting, Casting, Casting. Mostly good actors that can rise above the material when it's not so great - which happens (Iron Man 2) They need a villain for Winter Soldier - they cast Robert Fucking Redford! Batman V. Superman the best two actors have either three minutes of…

International box office. That's why Superman is being made into such a broody asshole as well - since making him the Truth, Justice and the American Way Superman kills the overseas market.

I was willing to give Snyder the benefit of the doubt on Watchmen because it was such a complex story and unlike The Dark Knight he wasn't using the comic as "inspiration" for an original story he had to stick to the script so to speak. The problem I think we're finding is that unless he's sticking page by page,…

Philip Colson is not a cool spy name - but Phil son of Cole is a great one.

Can we talk about Ivo Nandi? Is there an ethnicity he can't play - President of a Mexican Biker Gang, 1920's Mafioso, Russian interrogator, I think I've seen him play an Islamic terrorist as well. You could basically do a Homeland type show that moves from hotspot to hotspot around the world and have Ivo Nandi just…

It full of a lot of 1940's era warehouses for an area that got leveled.

That movie gave me all the feels. Elizabeth McGovern's role in that movie and my subsequent crush on her is how my wife got me to watch Downton Abbey

They are working their way up to a Defenders Mini-series with DD, JJ, Luke Cage, Iron Fist and maybe Punisher and Elektra. But it still strains credibility not that JJ wouldn't show up in DD's stuff because she's shown not to really care about stuff that doesn't directly affect her - but DD is a nosy neighbor - also…

No, that she's the one bringing it up. Look at the list, half of it is song she herself said were about her. How she's been treated in general compared to a male artist is a different issue - lots of people writing dis songs about her might not even be true -but she certainly wants it to be.

I understand the extra difficulties celebrity women have that men do not - however Love is the one that keeps bringing up most of these songs being about her.

I was expecting Frank to show up - so they easily could have had the 50 ninjas and have had The Punisher mow down 40 of them to give DD a fighting chance. I would have had the same exact plot impact but been consistent with what they were showing before they walked out the door. It was like they wanted the ending of…

Were Abbott and Costello in this one?

The "other" superhero character thing is a problem all of the MCU has. Why aren't Tony and Hawkeye around when Hydra is taking over SHEILD? Where's the help from Cap and the Hulk in Iron Man 3?
Why doesn't DD hear the Chaos that erupts around JJ? They live in the same neighborhood and Matt is constantly using his…

Especially when during the best scene in the whole two seasons of the show, Matt exhausted himself and had a great deal of trouble in the hallway fight in season 1, beating up random, regular bad guys - then he's able to fight off ten ninjas at once without breaking a sweat. Plus, before they actually went out on the…

The only one I have an explanation for is Brett - he gets promoted because he "caught" The Punisher. I can see the law firm wanting to hire Foggy, but starting at that level - makes no sense.
