My X-Men experience began with Excalibur, which is a pretty damn good place to start, it turns out. I jumped onto Uncanny with the Inferno crossover and kept going from there and managed to figure it all out. Eventually.

Ultimate X-Men pretty much has to be considered a disappointment because for most of its run it features big-name writers doing second-rate work. Except that one Brian K. Vaughn issue where Wolverine has to confront that super-destructive new teenage mutant.

Man, after Remender's excruciating Uncanny Avengers series (which followed his weird but kind of great Uncanny X-Force), I'm kind of glad he didn't end up doing a mainline X-book.

That is pretty cool. But this site disagrees with you.

With Bacon on board, I will give this franchise a shot for the first time since Tremors 2. As much as I loved the original, just throwing side characters at sillier variations of the worms never appealed to me.

Yes there are. It's like the idea of actually approaching a woman and having a conversation has never occurred to them. Despite what desperate 80's/90's nerd culture (and Gamergaters) may tell them, female humans are not a separate species.

Considering that the past week of Dilbert strips has featured "The guy from the internet who makes all the outraged comments", I think I buy his explanation that this was intentionally posted to outrage the internet.

It's sort of like the anti-Phineas and Ferb in that way.

Kind of amazing to me that there are commenters here on the AV Club who are apparently hearing this song for the first time. I'm not an mc chris fan by any means, but this song was ubiquitous among nerd culture in the 00's.

It'd be an offer too amazing to pass up if that's what it was. But the $200 million sounds like it was the startup funds given to get this production company off the ground, which isn't the same thing at all.

Don't the Nolans have a say in this? It seems like if they did it wouldn't be happening, but since it was a low-budget indie it also seems like they should have some control over the film's rights.

Nah, it was later than that.

I would probably go see that last one at the local $2 theater in second run.

Daryl's only got 10 episodes to live, anyway, so he won't really need it.

It's been established that undisturbed zombies just sort of lay dormant when there's nothing around to grab their attention.

Didn't Carl meet somebody out in the woods during season 3? But he killed that dude, right?

By naming it Alien: Something, Ridley Scott will, against my better judgment, get me to go see this movie. Had it remained Prometheus 2, there was very little chance of that.

It's been a long time since the Speed Bump was a worthwhile thing.

I'm gonna pretend you meant to call them Grate White as a way to be even more insulting.
