Ah yes, Chekhov’s iron Islands, I didn’t consider that. Also, regarding next season, you might want to sit down for what I’m about to tell you...

Badly-played baseball is better than regular baseball. True?

Done right, any sort of Annihilation adaptation is going to make me happy as hell.

Mandarin wasn’t the villain of the Extremis storyline.

Mandarin wasn't in the original Extremis story. Hell, Killian commits suicide at the start of the story. Hall was actually behind everything. 

If you want to get really cynical, Tony Stark having significant character development and status quo shakeups in his solo series only for all of it to get completely shat on by some other writer who just wants to make a big dumb crossover event, is actually peak Marvel Comics.

I just started rereading Time Runs Out last week. It still holds up as the best Marvel arc of the decade, IMHO.

Instead of Secret Wars they should adapt Secret Wars (2015). And I don’t just mean the actual event series where Doom is Godking and whatnot. I mean do everything before it. Hickman’s Fantastic Four and FF runs, his Avengers and New Avengers runs, do Infinity (but maybe take some liberties there). Hell, doing JUST the…

Umpire Tosses Dick Who Argued Balls And Strikes; Tossed Ball Strikes Umpire’s Dick And Balls

Presumably he has a bunch of extra red glasses/goggles since him losing them is always a major problem.

Right: Circa 2005, Google made a strategic decision that they needed to be sure that they weren’t edged out of smartphones, so they needed a smartphone OS. They knew their primary competition was Blackberry (the hot company driving smartphone growth), and BBM was the killer app.

I feel the same way about the Phoenix force as I do about the Weeping Angels.  Cool once, but stop bringing them back over and over and over.

Annihilation and the sequel Conquest are the two best Marvel cosmic storylines, bar none. They’re the stories that made me fall in love with so many previously obscure Z-list characters. Hell, I even felt bad for (spoilers!) Deathcry a bit when she bought it during Quill’s Dirty Dozen story.

Ragnarok was a good example of a film that was almost brilliant, but just needed someone to reign in Taika Waititi’s desperation to be “the funny one” - most of it was fun, but every line he had felt crammed in and Tarantino-in-Pulp-Fiction levels of “look at me!!!!”

(Other than the horrifying “toad” line by Storm in…

This is probably what the plot of “A Star Is Born” should have been in a 2018 remake.

Pulse SMS allows you to message from multiple devices, and it’s super easy to set up!

Yeah I mean Google’s problem is that they keep mothballing services instead of just evolving one system/merging them together. That’s what I mean by actively hostile to messaging users. It would be better if they just exited the space entirely.

Not really. I’d like an iMessage experience but not badly enough to sacrifice the advantages I find in an Android device.

BvS is a bunch of good (or at least decent) actors trying

Here’s an idea the Tremors people maybe haven’t considered:
