"Keane, a steely stable progressive, suddenly turning into post coup Erdogan is the most ridiculous twist"

"I, your humble reviewer, will not be back next season."

After seeing The Act of Killing (and The Look of Silence), I agree entirely.

Every comment on this review is the same: "This show glamorizes suicide…not that I actually watched it", "This sounds like normalizes suicide…although I haven't seen it", "This is offensive crap…I think, didn't watch it" *sigh*…Just watch the damn show, first, you idiots!

Different Spider-Man, the 616 version was still there.

An Inhumans has the power to see the future, and it causes superheroes to go apeshit, even though there were plenty of those before at Marvel and never caused any trouble.

Blatant rip-off of Minority Report.

Yes, apparently. Makes the original story look like Watchmen.

Civil War II storyline.

Yeah, I had to drop Lemire's Hawkeye after issue 5 pulled one of the dumbest endings in the history of Marvel. Just awful.

In the last 5 years, Marvel killed off or set aside some of their biggest sellers, like Wolverine, Bruce Banner, Tony Stark and Thor, as well as important characters like Henry Pym, Professor X, Cyclops, Reed Richards, Invisible Woman and War Machine, made Hawkeye into the murderer of another hero, made Captain Marvel

Yeah, except that Marvel ALREADY threw out Wolverine and Cyclops, and the books didn't get better. At all. In fact, they only got worse.

It's hard to pull the X-men in an "exciting new direction" when it's most popular characters are either dead (Cyclops, Wolverine, Professor X, Jean Grey), written as complete idiots for the last few years (Storm, Emma Frost) or written as complete idiots for the last TEN years (Beast), and there seems to be no plans

"Iron Fist raises the question, is Danny Rand the Donald Trump of superheroes?"

So, Daniel is dating a 17 year old? It explains why she tolerates him anyway.

Why does this show NEEDS to show why Cain is a conservative anymore than it needs to show why other characters are liberals? It's because being black, he has to be liberal by default? This strikes me as your bias showing (and that comes from someone that thinks Hillary and Obama are often far too conservative).

First episode is better than I was expecting judging by the reviews.

Yeah, I'm shocked that the great mind that gave us Lumberjack Dexter delivered a bland show.

So, they're making a sequel by removing the people that made the original interesting in the first place because they're cheap? YAY, HOLLYWOOD!

Kresteva, ugh. Perry knows how to make him so very slimy and repulsive and yet believable.
