Well, this is TV. Any time a TV show does something you do for a living or have detailed knowledge of, it's going to do it wrong and will usually make you mad. There's a lot of reasons for that, but it seems like it's usually because they think they have the important parts down and the minor details can adapted to

Is that code for "HBO Go password"?

Hey man, when Big Al wants to talk, he talks! And talks. And talks. Never trust a man who has something he wants to say but doesn't want to spend the few minutes or hours to say it like he means. You can always kill people later.

Cool World.

Which is odd because people like dogs.

I dunno; there's few easier characters to write than the shrill, naive emerging feminist. No one like them, they kill any scene they're in and sabotage any message they're involved with, but they're easy to write.

It's like that guy who's a few years too old at the college party, standing near the keg waiting to talk at people (maybe even a girl!) - the show!

I always loved how blowing up candy shows is just a thing that happens, while briefly touching one bun on a woman is the crime of the century. Some of those "candy boys" were women (probably)!

He's Just Not That Into You… so… just the tip?

Peter MacNichol as X the Eliminator actually grew on me as he went, eventually becoming my favorite recurring character.

Yeah, one of the few on this I actually read at the time was Reed Richard's, and the thing was bullshit. Galactus isn't some kind of natural predator, any more than we should have mountain lions roaming downtown to eat people too fat to run away. But to call everyone on their hypocrisy isn't the comic way, so they

So of the other two, which one did you guys agree you should've seen instead?

If it was Vaughn and Owen's sins, that might even be OK. "I'm a B-actor who often phones it in!" *hits them with the 20,000 volts*

I dunno. After the last one, all this has to be is "not shit" and my low expectations will take hold and I'll convince myself I'm happy while I'm in the theater.
