Okay, that’s good news, and I’ll trust that you’re right.

While I had big problems with MoS, and I’m not thrilled with a lot of what we’ve seen so far, I do really want this to be a good movie.

Or, you know, the Purple Heart or Salvation Army or something.
If you were holding on to it before, it probably still has value for someone who hasn’t read/seen/used it in some way.

I agree, though there are some things that the tech isn’t great for yet. I no longer buy booky-books on paper, but comics still have a ways to go for me in the pad, and large format art books won’t be replaced for many years, I think.

This is a great article with a single, but major, nomenclature problem.

The difference between hoarding and collecting is curation. If you don’t know what you’ve got- if it’s not displayed, organized, or otherwise thoughtfully stored- it’s not a collection. It’s just a hoard. I personally have both collections and…

These aren’t quiiiiite overworked enough for me. The details on the detailing need more details.
Or perhaps if they hung tiny christmas ornaments off them...

Holy crap, you’re RIGHT.

That’s literally just the canon from the Death Star playset slapped onto the back of the ATT-ATT.

To BLAME?
Don’t get all pissy at Battlestar Galactica for producing awesome toys.

The toy version of the Falcon so clearly was designed to have SOMETHING fit in there that we were always trying to figure out what it was.

And he’s Marvel’s logo. For years, this was literally true. As Mickey is to Disney, Spidey is to Marvel.

I’d like to, just for a moment, make a serious point here.

The availability of a vast array of even minor characters really helped to make the SW universe feel as large as it did. As a kid before VHS, the EU, or any spin-offs, the great majority of my time spent in that setting was not watching the films, but playing…

There’s already a release schedule. They altered it for Spider-Man, but I don’t think anything else other than the death of a major star could alter that schedule for the next couple years, at least.

Same directors, writers, actors, and production team as Winter Soldier.
Marvel is on such an incredible streak that at this point it’s just too tempting to look at the the most daring aspect of whatever the next film is and say “THIS will be their misstep.” And that’s happened for each of the last several films, but so…

These are not Oreos. You may personally enjoy them, or you may not, but these are not Oreos. Nor are they “interpretations of Oreos.

They are the same as this Zorro movie: the result of marketers realizing that the consumers’ willingness to try a brand new product is increased when it has an old familiar name.

Good to know- thanks!

Yeah, it seems like a missed opportunity to evolve his costume into something a bit more comic-booky, but I think they may have felt burned by Cap’s step in that direction in Avengers.

I enjoy Vikings, really. But it’s not a very good show by most measures. To hope that this show will only be as good as Vikings is to hope that it really lets down the source material.

I’m hoping for better than Vikings in a few ways they can easily achieve just by following the template of the books:

1. Characters with…

Agreed. Those are iconic roles, and the actors who filled them made them so. The SW galaxy has a big enough canvas to tell so many stories that they don’t need to revisit the same dozen people over and over again. Unlike, say, James Bond, their storytelling needn’t revolve around one fixed point. That’s a strength of…

Why would they do that? What would either network gain? Besides, I doubt that fans of Uhtred would be pleased about it.

Totally, and that’s the story arc I want to see. I want to see him blowing his opportunities for the values that make him Uhtred, and eventually and gradually learning how to make those qualities play for him.
I love how much at the beginning of the series he’s such a political pawn. Strong as he is, he’s pushed about…
