Peter David thought about it some: http://goodcomics.comicbook…

I assumed it was the same basic process Saruman used to get Uruk-Hai.

Marvel makes a string of good movies that happened to be one "shared universe." Hollywood execs rush to get their own shared universe. Earlier: Pixar makes a string of good movies that happened to be computer-animated. Hollywood execs rush to make every animated movie computer-animated.

I think there's enough evidence in the movie that shows how warped and damaging that attitude is, but I can't really discuss it without spoiling things. Though seeing that evidence requires a little bit of divorcing yourself from the point of view character's bias and empathizing with other people, so sociopaths…

I appreciated hearing John Teti experience the butt live on tape.

He has now added "producer of Sleepy Hollow" to Len's bio. Which, having looked at his IMDB, doesn't leave much else worth mentioning.

Oater.

I think they require a theatrical release of some kind, but looking at a couple on this list, I'm not so sure. Maybe VOD counts, but DVD doesn't.

The AV Club

It's pretty odd that we follow the one soldier who's not an active part of those efforts until the end. It still relies on a lot of coincidence to keep him involved through the whole film.

It's a shame, as - without the context of the rest of the movie that makes Peter a douchebag - I think the bookend Rhino bits as a short film would end up being the second or third best live-action Spidey thing. He's joking around; he cares about saving people; he's fighting an enjoyably hammy Paul Giamatti (as…

I really assumed that was a callback to a joke title from a previous AV Club article until I saw the link lead to Variety. Amazing.

Billy on the Street! street street street

Season One was all French food terms, Two has been Japanese. Looks like Three will be Italian.

Silicon Valley, Legend of Korra… Our cups runneth over.

I'm guessing Loki's sceptre is Strucker's way of controlling the twins (or he hopes it will be). Makes some sense that Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver would get the Hawkeye mind-control treatment, since all three started out briefly as villains before joining the Avengers.

So, I guess the implication here is modern-day Geoff Johns *agrees* with Hunter Zolomon's "IIII'LLLLMAAAKEYOUBBBETTERR" premise? Yuck. I'll just pretend his run ends in the Wally West era, where I quite enjoyed his work.

I think they'll be alright as long as they keep it rare and mostly one-directional. It's once you have it open as a potential problem-solving option that trouble crops up (*cough*Heroes*cough*).

Time travel is kind of one of The Flash's main elements, though. Mainly villains coming from the future to screw with him.

I did. Never saw the movies, but I enjoyed Leverage (also created by John Rogers). It could be a fun, breezy way to pass an hour.
