Oh, I'm not saying ignore him.

I realized I hated Bill Maher when, many years ago, his interview with Keith Ellison sounded exactly like Glenn Beck's interview with Keith Ellison.

Beyond his politics, beyond his intention to use his visit at Berkeley to intimidate and harass any undocumented students, beyond his existing history of using his fame to intimidate people, Milo is a provocateur and a troll.

It's a one way street, yes. Shield has never been acknowledged by the movies, but Shield has always acknowledged the movies - and it had Sif from the Thor films crossover as late as season two (her lack of subsequent appearances likely have more to do with NBC's Blindspot than a reluctance to bring her back.)

Oh, that was sarcasm.

Shield is a little movie adjacent - they've wound up cleaning up the mess from one movie and being completely redefined by another.

The ever reliable IMDB already floats the idea the actress who played that character is attached (but even they call it a rumour):

A number of Freeform shows seem to be available on Hulu, so Cloak and Dagger may be the most likely show to cross over with.

What are essentially two major rivals - Hulu and Netflix - are now both producing TV series in the same overall 'universe,' which I admit is a little weird to me.

See, I liked the Beyond scene because I felt they earned it - the movie came up with an explanation for why using the Beastie Boys in the way they did was the correct course of action.

The TV intro's a trip. As if the nineties never left us. https://www.youtube.com/wat…

I mean, defeating Ronan with the power of friendship was nonsense and Ronan was a less clearly defined villain than Eric Bana in the 2009 Star Trek movie, Thanos was a bore…

I don't think they're politically damaging, but I don't think comedy has a handle on Trump yet - Bush, Romney and McCain were easy straight men, providing the perfect set-up to jokes - but Trump's insult comic style breezes past what is expected and leaves comedians with nothing to grab onto.

It's very likely true, but since he lost influence on Marvel films (in 2015), we've had Ultron, Ant-Man, Civil War, Doctor Strange, and have Guardians 2, Spider-Man and Thor 3 due this year, and so on and so on. Spider-Man in particular was a post-Perlmutter development. Perlmutter may be hostile to doing a female…

Two things:
1. Ike Perlmutter is not why we are getting Spider-Man before Captain Marvel.
2. Ike Perlmutter was the head of Marvel Studios. Marvel is not somehow guiltless of the behaviour of a man who is in charge.

I'd be very surprised if she appeared in a TV show first, mostly because thus far the films have avoided acknowledging the TV shows at all.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe has been going since 2008. To put it in political terms (because who doesn't, these days) they've been working on these movies since the final years of Bush II's presidency.

But when was Benedict Cumberbatch hired? I feel like that was post-2014, but don't quote me on that.

Makes sense, it's staying true to the source material, by which I mean Farscape.

Bingo. I think it's more market saturation concerns than resources - they're releasing three movies this year, and that's not counting other superhero movies they're not involved with, or the Inhumans TV-movie event that is a thing.
