When are we getting a Thunderbolts movie? Imagine how great that could be?

Great choice, but I've always held out hope that she'll play live action Black Cat. She already voiced Felicia Hardy to perfection in Spectacular Spider-man.

Katee Sackhoff would be the perfect Carol. Thank you for that! (I know I'm kind of disregarding your point here, I'm sorry. It's just that I've been trying to think of a good actress for Carol Danvers for ages now and never thought of Katee Sackhoff for some reason.)

Brave? No? Fucking impressive? Yes. I'm sure they have lives, but they also have hobbies. What's wrong with having a hobby?

I don't know many people who are excited by Halo 4. I'm guessing as long as they put these games out and they're good - people will be excited about them.

I'll check it out ASAP. Just dropped in to say that one of the things I've always loved about the Halo universe were the names of the ships, both UNSC and Covenant. Slightly generic but wholly epic - Forward Unto Dawn, Pillar of Autumn, and The Truth and Reconciliation.

H.A.T.E., I imagine. But otherwise, no one.

If the S.H.I.E.L.D. TV show introduces the Heroes for Hire I will be over the moon. Also, I've always preferred how Warren Ellis handled Elsa in Nextwave to the more Buffy-esque reading of her in some of her other works. But maybe that's just because I preferred the Nextwave incarnations of these characters to their…

From what I've been able to glean by their treatment of women in past games, Assassin's Creed has been able to craft believable backstories and attitudes for their female characters. Take Caterina Sforza, for example. She's a very capable fighter, independent in her own right, head of her house, etc., but it's done in…

This seems like the best reasoning that I've read. I'm hoping that once Desmond's story is finished we'll get more female Assassins. Aveline is a great start, and I'd love to see where they could go with a woman as an assassin. Maybe Asia or ancient Egypt!

Definitely. People have a hard time accepting when a different point of view than the norm in gaming culture is shared. Interesting read, no doubt.

I enjoy civil discussion on Kotaku. It's so rare. Good talk.

Thank you. I don't understand why people can't understand this. Jokes are alright. Even offensive, awful jokes that perpetuate horrible things. But not in a workplace. Not when they breed a culture where employees feel othered for simply being what they are.

It's also the story of a guy being told: ""Let me tell you, it's ok to make jokes about slavery because that's over." — which, sorry, no, it isn't. Especially not in a professional environment. As far as I know, the OP wasn't speaking for the crowd but voicing his concerns about the racist and homophobic behavior he…

Are you being ironic? Please tell me you're being ironic. Just because he hires minorities, gays and trans people doesn't mean he's not (allegedly) a racist asshole for his comments. That doesn't absolve him of what the inherent wrongness of what they're doing. You don't get to dictate how minorities can react to…

Squirrel Girl is awesome.

Have you met Kotaku core? No? You should get well-acquainted. http://kotaku.com/kotaku-core/

Spoilers, again:

I will say this: Spoilers ——

The storyline isn't what changes, though. I never got why people thought that it would be possible for a game of this budget to truly craft a plot out of thin air depending on your choices. It does a great job at what it, I believe, set out to do - get you to care about how you craft your relationships with other…
