I also have so many feelings about Mary Poppins and Bert. What is their backstory?!?!

I like Sam as the cool, normal guy who fights with the Avengers but emotionally stays aloof from their melodrama. I like him as Steve's real-talk friend, not one with any sexual tension with these crazies. He and Cobie Smulders's character should get together.

Captain America and Bucky|Winter Soldier. Cap cured his brainwashing through the power of love. Plus, Bucky was the damsel in distress even in the first movie that motivated him to become a hero. So many of their story beats play as epically romantic. This upcoming film will kill me, I know it.

The first one still holds up and makes me laugh out loud (not many movies do that for me). However, this looks pretty terrible. But my deep love for Owen Wilson is such that I will have to watch it.

One of the most entertaining books I've ever read, and my absolute favorite romcom after It Happened Once Night. There are so many quotable lines from both, for different reasons. They are the same and yet their own thing, with the movie playing up teh bits that make more sense visually, and the book doing things no

"What do you think about Chechnya?"
"Couldn't give a fuck, Jones."

They used a taxi cab receipt printer for "the smoke monster is approaching" sounds on LOST. Every time I hear one while walking in the street, I get skittish.

We hadn't heard of the books before and were completely unspoiled, but we started thinking it was going to an alternate universe-hopping place around episodes 7-8. There were a few weird little things.

But how is there a 'lack of another comparison'? The first book was just as much "dark Narnia" as "adult Harry Potter". Maybe Narnia doesn't loom quite as large at the moment as Harry Potter does, but it IS an apt and marketable and almost as well-known comparison. It just irks me that none of the taglines even

Protagonists don't have to be perfect. They don't even have to be likable (hi protagonists of almost every HBO show!). But they do have to be reasonably entertaining or interesting enough that the reader or viewer wants to continue spending time with them, and seeing the world through their eyes. Quentin failed on

Haven't seen it yet, but glad to hear Eliot is still the best.

I'm so stressed about Sense8. I love it more than any show I've watched in years. Almost as scary as no renewal would be a renewal with half the budget. We might not need anything as large-scale as that Nairobi highway car chase again, but I'd hate to lose a lot of locations and production value.

The only problem is that she's too old to be Tony's mom. I thought the only way the timelike could work is if Howard much later married a much younger woman. However, I agree with you. I'm pretty sure it will be revealed that Angie is a nickname based off her middle name, and her real name is Maria.

Ugh. That article saying how Jarvis should have been a woman, or a minority because… ~reasons…

I hope the "perhaps" in the love interest is hinting that Peggy/Sousa is a fake-out that won't work out, just like Jarvis's wife is a fake-out. I'd be happy to have the SSR guys not return and focus on just Peggy, Jarvis, Angie, (a little) Howard and new Hollywood characters. Enver and The Chad were so bland to me,

She's free to make new friends as long as she continues to spend most of her time with him. They are the main reason I watch this show.

The scorpion was on the Lovers tarot card that Ethan picked at Vanessa's request in the pilot. I think it represents him somehow.

It's not about making up numbers. It's about showing that there was a wide spectrum of female characters on this show, each of which had a purpose and represented a theme. If all the women on this show were 'awesome' or nice, then it would actually be a really bad show. That character represented something very real

Please dear god. He's so boring. I like that she called him out last week for treating her badly in his own way. The way other characters try to build up his crush on her at the expense of, you know, actual chemistry or interesting scenes with Peggy is annoying. It's sweet that he has a crush, but Peggy is the main
