Welp, that officially hammers the last nail into my reservations about beginning impeachment proceedings against Trump. They won’t lead to a conviction in the Republican-controlled Senate, but this administration has just openly demonstrated that they not only have no respect for the separation of powers or coequal…

Maybe with the next phase they'll be called the Ultimates.

I really have concerns over Mysterio. Assuming he isn’t from an alternate dimension, this means Nick Fury got duped, which is never good when you’re trying to keep him as a Badass, and it has a bit of Winter Soldier plot of Fury being hoodwinked. Moreover, once we get to the twist that Mysterio is just trickery, hard…

“You think this letter on my head stands for France?”?

I think it had everything to do with the Fox merger and they wanted to unload any controversy while trying to close the deal. Now that it’s basically done, they were free to bring him back. 

I think it had less to do with the money to be made off of one film and more about ensuring the smooth government-approval-required purchase of Fox’s assets. Starting a public battle with any conservative (who might cry on Twitter and get Trump’s attention, making things worse) would mean playing on their territory,…

Sounds like Fox execs are doing the same kind of backseat driving with the X-films that WB execs have been doing with the DC Films. Good luck! 

My family was in Germany during the war and their strategy of keeping their heads down and hoping it would pass didn’t work. By 1945 most of the homes and the family business had been bombed into the ground and most of the men had died or disappeared in Russia.

Yeah. For all the talk you hear about “witch hunts,” you have to realize that celebrity culture is designed to give tremendous leeway to people who are, in all likelihood, titanic assholes with poor life decision skills.

That is f-ing Doraemon. Thanks Netflix.

Because, and bare with me here, the vast majority of people who watch the show don’t pick it apart like online critics do. They enjoy it for what it is: a dumb, self-serious, zombie romp with some interesting drama and visceral action. Personally, I’ve yet to see a season I didn’t enjoy.

Fun fact: that “shithole” was built in part thanks to a protracted civil war between government forces and the leftist FMLN, during which 75,000 civilians were killed, 85% of them by US-supported, -armed, and -trained paramilitary death squads!

El Salvador has strict gun laws...and, by wide margin, the worst murder rate in the world. It ain’t a “gun control” problem. It’s a “significant percentage of the population directly involved in crime, gangs, and violence” problem. People are leaving because they don’t want to be murdered by gangs, or murdered by…

The Nostromo in Alien was likely constructed with a much larger budget and a team that had the time to install that level of detail; not just dress a couple of sound stages in Los Angeles. Cut them *some* slack. Nobody complains that every city in the DC Television universe looks like Vancouver.

Look - they’re working with what they have. Their budget was cut for this season, so they had to basically build a few sets and then make sure the whole story took place on them. Even the “fear dimension” conceit was a way to use shit they already had on the shelf. The cast is still great and the writing is still…

The credit you give to someone you’re legally obligated to give some sort of credit to.

Yeah I really hate what facebook’s become. Once they made it public it went to shit. I have to actively look for friends because it only shows me like 10 people... granted I’d probably be fine just tossing it.

Could his stress be about how he’s literally the number one guy in Hollywood named as the next ‘open secret’ abuser who has yet to fall? I imagine that would be a stressful position to be in.

A-men. I started reading Marvel comics real-time in ‘87. I had given up on them by ‘97. They didn’t hold my interest anymore. Lots of bad decisions in plot kept me away (Cassandra Nova and Xorn/Mags/Joseph in particular) Then came Ultimate Spider-man, Ultimate X-Men, and the Ultimates. I don’t know if it was a chance…

Miles Morales (and literally everything that he has ever seen, touched or cared about, because dammit we made a ton of his merch and continuity errors be damned we refuse to sit on a pile of plastic figures that rivals only that of Episode I. You will love Ultimate Prowler or so help us!)
