Fabian Nicieza is the only writer who could ever make Sam a convincing lead to me. He and Bobby are natural supporting characters. Great supporting characters, but that's the strength the X-Men, often forgotten: many of these characters make up a wonderful mix in a team book, but are difficult to make interesting on…

I feel like I've read at least one issue of almost everything, but my only memory of those characters is Mantra being named Wizard's "babe of the month" in like 1993.

You just know you'd end up with Gerard Butler as Captain Britain.

It's the "nigh" that makes this quote.

I heard that Warren Buffett sold all his shares in Disney when he was getting a haircut and his barber was telling him about his five picture deal to create a superhero cinematic universe based on the Ultraverse.

Perfect for the X-Men, in other words.

The swing dance scene was a clear influence of Spider-Man 3, though.

I assume Anya Taylor-Joy would be Magik and Maisie Williams is Wolfsbane, but I think it would be kind of cool to reverse that.

As an X-fan, I couldn't choose between the New Mutants and Generation X. For me it's like the SNL Superfans sketch where Chris Farley has to decide Bulls vs. Bears.

Yeah, photos of the 80s Celtics look like an ad for a 00s-era Comedy Central movie about a pick-up basketball league made up of Peoria-are accountants.

The best Netflix original so far, in my opinion, is Love.

Ugh, those white socks with the colored stripes. I'm still traumatized.

Bret Ratner would take the story in a different direction.

Nixon is in my opinion the best of Stone's president films, and it's my favorite film of his by far. The Larry Hagman scenes could come across as conspiratorial nonsense, but they are in some ways the heart of the film, reflecting not a specific conspiracy that actually happened, but the very American feeling that…

Oh, I think it's much better than JFK, which I feel can't quite overcome the peripheral nature of its subject matter. Ultimately Garrison just isn't that compelling to me; I feel like I would have enjoyed more a movie that was just portraying his feelings in the two hours after learning of JFK's death, rather than…

That looks so convincingly Swedish that I googled it. It's rare to get zero results, Dik. I salute you.

I still listen to music I discovered on 120 Minutes.

The Kjallspurnjorgle, I presume. It's a simple spice rack, just a few planks and slats.

Then they should definitely keep it in New York, to be close to the Stankonian embassy.

I know, man. Such a deep, rich sound, like a bassoon almost. And if he eats a kale salad? Like fucking Beetoven.
