It's hard to think of too many scenes that tighten your sphincter as much as Vader lighting his saber in the shadows, like the entire damn room is part of him, and it's all about to kick your ass.

I'd put the ROTJ duel ahead of it, too. Sure, it wasn't a sophisticated in its choreography, but its thematic resonance is far superior.

Yup, and that's the point of the final scene with the wife. She refuses the coin because no, motherfucker, you're doing this, you have to own this.

And if that's the case, Stannis planning to publicly execute Theon to placate the northern lords with Sansa protesting and the Iron Islands…well, who knows how they'd react…would make a pretty good arc.

I think "Tomorrow" is fine, and it clearly fits with the "there's always another fight" theme. But yeah, "What's next?" would've been better. But "imperfect" isn't the same thing as "bad".

Kinda weird though, 'cause there's several minutes of movie left after that line.

That's just about the only thing that bothers me about Ghostbusters.

And to take this back to the MCU comparison, 1) Those movies have a little more tonal variance than they're often given credit for; and 2) The Marvel characters they've used so far are just a little more malleable. Superman doesn't really work in a noir story. Captain America can.

I actually don't think Daredevil is all that different from Flash, at least in the key element of this review: earnestness. 'Cause as noir-ish and pulpy and violent as Daredevil is, it's still ultimately about a really good guy who is trying and succeeding to make life a little better for people. And it still has a

I don't think anyone was on board with the Boltons before this.

"I'm with the other posters on here who wonder what exactly everyone else was expecting Ramsay to do after they got married."

Um, the Cersei rape got more than a few side-eyes, dude.

Man, I loved this. I thought it was really clever how all of the supporting cast (and Peggy, who was always a step above mere "supporting") got the happy endings you always want on some level when you follow characters around for years, but Don got the ambiguity this show really needs.

It's one world with a bunch of different "kingdoms", and the way the "kingdoms" interact varies. Some, it appears, will have basically no interaction with the rest of Battleworld. Some, it appears, will constantly be going to war with other ones.

Yeah, making the Avengers basically just fart around while the Illuminati did the real work was…well, exactly Tony's plan, but it made for some lackluster comics.

Well, but Ultimate Spidey had that same "age and look". I don't know that it's all that obvious that they want to do MM and were just afraid to cast a Latino versus they wanted to do PP and keep him young.

Even though they're killing the Ultimate Universe for you?

That's fair, but it remains that USM was a pretty good run of comics. Good comics should always be written (and drawn, and colored, and lettered…)!

Man, I'm impressed that people who listen to Hawk Harrelson that much can actually roll with grammar jokes.

You're completely allowed. Go ahead, do it right now, you won't go to jail.
