Yeah, I’m a bit burned out on the MCU at the moment. She-Hulk has been very enjoyable, I will admit. And I can’t wait for Daredevil.

Executive Producer can often mean anything between “someone who is in charge of a whole lot of things” and “we needed to give this guy an EP credit so he’d star in our film.”  I wouldn’t read too much into it.

Didn’t change the content that was sold/licensed -- its the LOTR books and the Hobbit books.

No.  Literally the only things out there/available are the LOTR and Hobbit books.

Agreed that people often mis-read Moore. Zack Snyder, for one. And I think both the Watchmen and V for Vendetta movies make the same mistake (e.g. Rorschach was not a hero, Zack).

Yep; in fact, Watchmen was originally going to feature the actual Charlton characters, but then DC decided they wanted to really make use of them, so Moore and Gibbons reskinned them.

I wouldn’t have to. I’d have way more confidence in a Maser than anything I assembled.

I came down to the comments to make some sort of joke out of Nuke Goldstein, but no way would it have been as good as yours.

Language evolves, sport.  Adapt.

How do you make it through a day if you don’t understand what context clues are?

Believe it or not, words can have more than one meaning.

Came to make the same remark.

Yeah, I forgot about Shada.

Ah, fair; I’d forgotten about Shada (somehow). For a brief scene, I was good with it, but I get what you’re saying.

Except Tom didn’t wear his old costume.

There aren’t many people in the lower 2/3 of the state either.  If a chain dominates the Chicago area, it dominates the state, at least in terms of customer base.

Fair.  I guess I misused “relevance” when I probably should have said “public attention,” but you’re absolutely correct.

I think he’s busy explaining on his forum that taking young female characters, aging their bodies up to adult, and then having them have sexual relationships with adult men is totally ok.
