I dunno - it's not like Zod was letting him take the fight elsewhere (like the part where he grabs Supes by the cape to keep him from fleeing) and to be fair that gigantic ship of death was hovering over Metropolis. I don't think he had much choice but to fight Zod where he was. Let's say he does fly to outerspace to…

Sadly that combination is not so at odds with each other as some people would like it to be.

I feel I was being pretty responsible by saying that the more a joke has to be justified as being OK/funny or even explained, the less effective a joke it is.

And now you know….the rest of the story

Quite honestly, it doesn't diminish mine either. I didn't mean to come off like I'm a Community-hater. The show, as dumb as it may sound, got me through some tough times in my life.

Seems about right

@avclub-71348decaf1df2bb85be2ece24cc2a1d:disqus I disagree, frankly. Whether you put out your message via an approved official media channel or via a podcast or other social media channel, you are still responsible for what you say. Just because he was drunk and being surrounded by sycophants while recording said…

@avclub-63c17d596f401acb520efe4a2a7a01ee:disqus I'm with you. Found out my dad had been having an affair for over a decade with a woman that led to him divorcing my mom.

Suburban western new york? I went to Williamsville East and remember thinking what a waste of time that whole portion of gym class was.

Yeah I noticed that too and was surprised I didn't see it mentioned more often. I liked how George Michael's used the woodblock prominently, but aside from that I couldn't figure out how the different opening music related to each character.

Wow way to miss the point. Being drunk is not an excuse for anything, as far as I'm concerned.

I wonder what all the Harmon apologists will say now.

I think that regardless of whether or not you think rape jokes can be/are funny, if this much time needs to be spent explaining *why* this particular joke was funny, inconsequential or meaningless, then it was probably none of those things.

Oh it was drunken? That explains it all away. Pardon me while I go get my DWI expunged from my record because I was drunk and didn't know what I was doing. 

Comixology is great since it ties into both Marvel and DC releases and uses the same guided view technology. Better than using the two separate apps to download comics - it's my only comics app on my iPad now.

@avclub-8b14f79688c0146367914b8240be4128:disqus I don't think suicide it can be, because, and I'm not a Patton Oswalt nut or anything, I do believe joking about it contributes to a suicide-culture in which suicide is becoming a larger problem and where it is now the LEADING cause of death for people worldwide aged…

@avclub-a70b90ac4dd557918e5a1c5cb19399ec:disqus Eh, I have no problem if Sue is white and Jonny is black. Introduce an adoption element, helping explain why Sue turned out super smart and he turned out to be kinda dumb. Or maybe just have Angelina Jolie play the Storm's mother .

I did not know that

Interesting way of classiyfing a person - someone you know only by nationality and by some presumption of age.

Wow if this is what rage reads like to you in written form, I would highly recommend avoiding ESPN.com's comments sections. Or Youtube's. Or Ain't it Cool News'. Or Television Without Pity's. Or CNN.com's (any political, news, or religious website in general who has comments, frankly). Or…..well there are much better…
