When Jimmy Woo gets out of the handcuffs, he says. “Flourish,” which is what drunk Vision kept saying at the end of his weirdo magic tricks.

“What this town NEEDS...is an enema!” ~ The Joker (Bill Murray), Batman (1989)

Continuity is one of those things that fans think they want more of but they really don’t. It’s great to put those references to obscure stuff in for the really dedicated fans, and it’s even better to weave together multiple stories into a larger universe... right up until it’s too much and the whole thing comes…

Ultron is a mediocre movie with a couple of good CGI sequences. Days of Future Past is a mediocre movie with a couple of good CGI sequences.

I didn’t say there’s nothing creative going on, I don’t hate Age of Ultron (or Whedon’s directing, overall). However, I think that third GIF doesn’t make a good argument for your case. It’s the movie’s big cheesecake shot that’s supposed to be a big applause moment in the theater, but it’s not a very well composed…

I’ll forgive them if their 90s sitcom model is Frasier complete with intertitles and snooty opera jokes.

I remember that they had a series of character intros for Days of Future in one of the entertainment magazines, and the Quicksilver one looked like hot boiled garbage. The character design was awful, Peters looked goofy, and everyone hated it. With Age of Ultron coming out and also featuring Pietro, it looked…

I think it’s more that there are certain “trope phrases” in our culture when talking about abuse, and it’s hard not to talk about abuse without somehow using them or seeming like you are going out of your way to avoid them - Think “victim”, “survivor” etc. I think her rhetoric is along the lines of trying to speak to…

I’m pretty handy with image enhancement, so I thought I’d take a crack at figuring out the identity of the blurred person. Here’s what I came up with:

Call it what you want, but the 4th Thor movie should be called FTHOUR

File this under who gives a shit. 

I’m still kind of amazed that Trent Reznor (whom I first knew as the guy saying fuck a dozen times in a radio single) is now an Oscar-winning musician and to all accounts a perfectly decent guy with a good family life.

predators know how to love-bomb.

I was once taking to the filmmaker Jim Van Bebber, who directed a couple of Manson’s videos, and he mentioned what a vile person he was, how everybody knew what he was doing, and how he believed Manson would soon be exposed and brought down. Manson was a big star at the time, or at least as big as he would ever be,…

Gene?

I'm surprised he still has a career that can be ruined.

Thank God for national treasure Kat Dennings but this episode was a bit of a letdown for me, as I always knew finding out “what’s really going on” would likely be. A lot of it played like a bad episode of “Agents of SHIELD” (which is to say an episode of “Agents of SHIELD’) leaving the anything can happen vibe of the…

It’s very comic book like to have cross over of supporting casts in other books. Even more so then heroes themselves. If the writer of Hulk wants Wolverine to show up they have to talk to editors and figure it out and it could take them having to wait till a time it makes sense. It’s a lot easier if the X-Men…
