INT. STAR LABS

THIS TRAILER MAKES ME DO A HAPPY FACE

Fucking give it to me now. Great teaser. Dolores looks badass. In a, er, robot murdery way.

My big takeaway from this trailer is that Ezra Miller looks awesome as Barry Allen.

I’ve just heard that Keiji Inafune has responded to the news Mega Man is getting a movie by setting up a Kickstarter for his live-action adaptation of Mighty No. 9, which will be filmed on an iPhone and star Rob Schneider as [LEAD CHARACTER NAME]*

Is it too much to ask that Avengers Infinity War is just Drax loudly complaining about his nipples to the other heroes for two hours?

This is fucking outstanding speech bubble placement.

I’ve just seen the movie and I had absolutely no idea the suit had a voice. I don’t recall the voice from a trailer, but there’s been so fucking many it hard to keep track.

  • Sure, it was done to keep Pearl Mackie in the episode as much as possible, but having Bill around as that’s how she still perceives herself cut in to everyone else seeing the Mondasian Cybermen she has been turned into was stunningly effective at getting across the tragedy of the Cybermen as a concept.

All of that is so aligned with my opinion right now that I’m concerned you’re reading my thoughts.

I saw it yesterday, too and while I came out of the cinema having enjoyed it, on the walk home I started thinking about Debra and, er, the other lady and how they fit into two very defined archetypes: the one who will be put in danger and the one who is sexy and my perception of the movie started to shift.

Everything about this looks so... mediocre. Even Lockjaw just sort of does a “meh” teleport. And Ramsay Bolton’s accent was all over the place. I’m going to give it a shot, but hot damn every “first look” of this show has been pretty fucking shite.

I’d be more than OK with Missy being the next “Doctor” for a series.

It was about 3 am. I’m on my eighth cup of tea. The BBC cut to Maidenhead. I’m going dizzy trying to do the electoral maths in my head. Theresa May ghouls her way up to the podium. I do not see Lord Buckethead. The returning officer begins to read the results. One by one. And then I hear his name. Then I see him. Then

Oh no, totally agree - I’d much prefer the sequel to focus on her and Barbara Ann and her transformation into Cheetah (and rather than fight after fight, Diana actually tries to help her).

While most of me agrees Trevor should be left in the first movie, if they were - somehow through comic book magic - able to bring him back, there would be a nice mirror to the first, with Diana being fully versed in modern life and having to ease Trevor into it.

Fantastic roundtable, guys - really enjoyed reading that.
