my second theory would be along those lines too.

either the hibernation / abbies explanation is a lie or if it is partially true and they are in the future and had been hibernated then a few of my theories on the questions:
no time travel - the wife and kid were fridged in real time in 2014 because she was asking too many questions.
Pope and Pam were Pilcher's…

Should had tried waitrose

Chicago Legal more like (if we're going by the Boston series)

and by related I mean they look so alike Styles could pass for a son

i agree, case in point is James Spader in the photo above. My biggest crush ever :(

reminds me how bloody hot james spader used to be

I'm convinced Harry Styles and Mick Jagger are related somehow.

An actor / cult leader trying to brainwash Hollywood? What a ludicrous idea, it could never happen in real life.

I doubt it. it was shit.

He was my biggest crush, still is in a way since Crash. I must say they got his mouth perfectly in Ultron.

Yes, that scene of their first sparring with RJD realising Ultron is stealing his funniest quips was the best part.

all that screen time wasted on Hawkeye, instead of giving us more Spader

The whole movie should had been just James Spader being sarcastic.

Ok I just saw it a few hours ago in imax 3D biggest screen in the UK. My advice, don't bother with the 3D, it's really not working for this movie. Also yes there is only 1 extra scene in the credits, so once is done, don't bother staying till the very end of the credits, there is no post credits scene

well I am just hoping that there will be some sort pay-off for these not particularly interesting flashbacks. and that the word repetition was on purpose, not just bad writing.

do you think the repetition is also there for another reason maybe? Eg Akio dies and his dad becomes one of the League of Assassins to bring him back? so that's why we have these flashbacks. something happens to both Aiko and his mum and only one of them is successfully revived by the Lazarus pit.

I assumed exactly the same. he specifically said Oliver will beg him - that would only be for Thea's life.

it's all in the base, man. the base has to be right.

I had such an amazing Pizza in Sardinia years ago for about €4; I'm still salivating just thinking about it.
