Has anyone ever explained why they didn't just put Cyclops and Jean Grey in First Class. My knowledge of X-Men doesn't go beyond the cartoon but for some reason it really bothered me, especially because of the inclusion of Not-Cyclops.

Saw the preview for this, and at first I thought it was going to be Colin Firth in a Liam Neeson movie, which could sort of work. Needless to say when I realized it was yet another YA "chosen kids save the world" movie I could not have been less interested.

I'd like to think we have the same co-worker, but I doubt it. Sadly.

I believe it's called a "tactileneck"

Does Gus still run a chicken restaurant? Is it called "Chicken Brothers?"

You know Batman's got a serious stereo in that thing to listen to his favorite song.
DARKNESS! NO PARENTS!

Wow, hadn't thought about it but this is exactly right. If I had to guess whoever the Wes Anderson of 2025 is will have a ton of Ryan Adams on his soundtracks.

I feel like it had something to do with a parrot. That's honestly all I remember.

I was just about to post that I wanted this to be a real show where Vinnie Van Lowe mentors Dick. But you basically beat me to it.

KIND OF SPOILERS FOR WINTER SOLDIER ALERT:

I want to like this more than once.

Isn't Moon basically this movie but IN SPACE? (He says thinking Moon was awesome.)

I basically agree with this. I loved 3, thought 2 was an overstuffed mess, have no recollection of who Mickey Rourke was or what his motivation was, but somehow he still gave a pretty fun performance.

Yes, definitely a joke.

What about Matterhorn? Wasn't that Die Hard at an amusement park? Sounds pretty decent.

In fairness Americans hate movies about colorful crime lords and gangsters.

You're going to have to wait four more years to vote Nader. Sorry!

What do we say to death? Go be in a Star Wars.

I love that Living in America scene from Rocky IV so much. Brown and Weathers both look like their having so much fun, the ridiculous golden calf as a warning that bad things will happen, and the way that Drago goes from confusion to resentment and hatred by the end of it. Kind of a perfect scene in truly ridiculous…

South Carolina Low Country. Like Charleston. There are many different "Southern" accents, a thing no one involved with House of Cards apparently took the time to learn.
