1. NOBODY thought RDJ wouldn’t be great as Iron Man. Maybe studio execs were worried about his ability to turn up sober, but nobody thought he didn’t have the goods.

The man’s a solid professional who doesn’t badmouth the projects that don’t work and doesn’t shy away from anchoring big projects, putting bums on seats. It’s not hard to see why he’s never short of job offers.

Yeah, we don’t need every season to have a Chris Carter-esque Myth Arc.

She played Kate Austen, not Kate Bishop. Kate Bishop is Hawkeye.

Still though, we usually use different terminology when referring to wars of aggression, for example “Invasion”. I myself propose “Attack of the Forever-Alones”.

Mutantkind was already at war with the sentinels, it’s true. But Magneto’s EMP was a declaration of war on all of humanity. It hit EVERYONE. Everyone who was in a plane is now dead. Everyone who was in a moving automobile is now dead or injured. Everyone who was on life support is now dead. Everyone who lived near a…

I dunno if I’d say DS9 reaffirmed those values. If Gene had still been around I think he’d have insisted that the series end with Sisko (and the Federation) facing the consequences for In The Pale Moonlight. That the secret of what he and Garak did gets out somehow (perhaps even unintentionally through the…

Sure but in this case it was a single episode, which was really just too fast altogether.

How is this man 78

That’s not that weird either. Celebrities are the easiest way to get eyeballs on your product. Look at Bethesda:

I would argue that Apocalypse was the career-staller. I believe that nobody could have done well in that role as given. At least Poe Dameron was still a showcase for his natural charisma.

The best, most frightening premise for a “US Civil War II” movie would be “it’s 2040 and clean drinkable water is getting so scarce that the nation is dividing along new lines which shatter previous state alliances, as the states which have the most clean water seek to secede rather than be forced by the federal…

I genuinely didn’t know this and am grateful for your informing me.

Thanos being CGI didn’t hurt Josh Brolin’s profile.

Don’t forget Soul Calibur. That’s pretty well-known outside the FGC. You also have Marvel vs Capcom which has a lot of mainstream awareness due to the strength of the Marvel brand.

That is an extremely cold take. Everybody knows that Star Wars fans are the worst. I say that as a Star Wars fan. We care entirely too much about this silly series of children's movies.

They’ve never called any console the Anything 2.

Right but, and once again, SHE HAS MADE GOOD STAR WARS STUFF TOO, AND MORE RECENTLY.

It’s a whole adult human ago.

If I had to guess, I’d say this is intended as a prequel? Which explains why Madame Web is young in it. The article goes on to mention that Adam Scott is playing young Ben Parker. Young in a relative sense, anyway; Scott’s 50. Doing the math, if he’s 50-ish in 2003, then by 2016 he’d be 63, at which point I believe…
