I laughed when the Scottish nerd said "Captain America!" and it sounded more like he was reminding the audience which movie HYDRA was from than reminding his colleagues who typically fought HYDRA.

I'm a huge Superman fan, particularly of the Pre-Crisis stories, and I have to say that I enjoyed both Superman Returns and Man of Steel. Although neither one is the "perfect" Superman movie and both are flawed in their own way, there's enough about each one that works to make them worthwhile.

SODIUM! JEEZ!

And her sidekick is Jim Rash!

As if in response…"Moment By Moment" is now available through Netflix Instant. Best of luck to you, Nathan.

JLA featured the only times Electric Superman was used in an interesting way, though. While he was just kind of zapping things and SHAZAM-ing from place to place in his own books, in JLA Superman was doing things like reading CDs by looking at them, giving the moon its own magnetic poles and absorbing the kinetic…

It's easy to dismiss the Silver Age Superman stories as simplistic and childish. But I think a closer reading of a lot of those stories reveal that Superman could be every bit as complicated and neurotic a character as Peter Parker or Ben Grimm. In lieu of coming up with a physical challenge for Superman, a lot of the…

I remember one Halloween when Mark and Mike hosted "Night of the Living Dead" from a huge house party on some channel. (Spike, maybe?) The hook was that Mark was going to stage a live version of some of the movie's key scenes using people just pulled out of the party at the end, but with all the beer and Mark…

I never knew Abrams was so short.

That scene features the only TV edit I've ever seen that improved upon the original line: When Clark asks the pimp if he knows how to get back to the interstate.

"Now this is a private club, Wang, so whatever you do, don't let em know you're Jewish!"

"Of course, some times 'fuhgettaboutit' just means 'fugettaboutit.'"

Shut it down, people!

I AM COMPLETELY BLOODY SICK OF THIS!

No, "The X-Men vs. Frankenstein's Murder Circus" is pretty much everything I read comics for, distilled into a few words. The X-Men comics on the whole have always been a little too ponderous for my taste, so WatXM has been a breath of fresh air.

"I got the results of the test back, I definitely have breast cancer."

Part of me hopes they never cancel Up All Night and just keep retooling it a little bit each season, so that by the end of Season 7 it's an hour-long sci-fi drama about Will Arnett as "a jittery night watchman at a mysterious government facility where the nation's best-kept secrets won't stay hidden." There would be…

If the final scene of this movie is Bowie being sworn in as Sovereign of the Guild of Calamitous Intent while an envious Iggy glowers in the background, that would be just super.

@avclub-a3e80e62340f85e584f072b212415d32:disqus But are there enough new comic book readers to sustain the industry? If the same pool of die-hard Marvel/DC super-hero readers vanish – and take the direct-market comic book store with them – where do the independents go?
