This has nothing to do with the romance aspect of the film, but we should talk more about how WW is also the first superhero movie in a long while that had a kickass, recognizable score. As soon as her theme blasted with the end credits I got goosebumps all over again.

The villains here just didn't register for me. I thought they made a mistake in not doing more with Doctor Poison as a character with, y'know, motivations and dialogue and stuff. Instead she had to schlep around with Generic Boring German Super Strong General all movie.

This is an excellent point I haven't seen made elsewhere.

Yeah, it's not Van Camp's fault she's not Hayley Atwell. I've often thought she'd actually fit right in on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

I thought Paltrow and Downey had some excellent chemistry - the problem is that it became less and less relevant to the movies overall as they progressed, to the point where you couldn't even really call it a subplot (and entirely written out as of Civil War, apparently).

Exactly. It was impossible for me to take "Sir Dudley" (or whatever his name was) seriously as the God of War.

This was the first superhero movie I've ever seen where I walked out thinking they should have doubled down on the romance aspects - Gadot and Pine had real chemistry, and instead of being annoying (like the rest of the squad members) their interactions were bright spots. Well done all around there.

In the words of my cousin Vinny: "I got no more use for this guy."

Hey! An Elisabeth Rohm sighting!

The last season was almost wholly unsatisfying on every level. I'm always excited for more Luther, but I really hope they've got a purpose in mind story-wise other than "So, uh, here's what he's doing now, also here's a serial killer plus hey remember Alice? She was great."

For me it's a toss-up; I would have loved to have seen Dire Straits but I wasn't of an age where I could have afforded tickets…. but the one that really got away was Warren Zevon, who came to town to play a hole-in-the-wall venue and I passed up on it to cram for a final. He never got the chance to come by again, and

I can think of lots of worse strategies to fill in gaps in a film than to rely exclusively on Sam Elliot's charisma.

Plus, I thought there was something just so tonally confusing about the women's match being a "kendo stick on a pole" match (and its sloppy execution). It felt out of place, despite being at "Extreme Rules". And ye Gods, that interview Bayley did before the match did her no favors either. I really hope they're playing

I like Rich Swann mainly because I'm a sucker for wrestlers who look like they're actually having fun in the ring. Plus, the dance. The dance is sublime.

Tremendous episode!

Incidentally, is there a "dedicated" YouTube channel for us Yanks who love British panel shows? Some organized way to watch them on a regular basis?

You know, I love - LOVE - this movie, from Costner's "Let's do some good!" to Connery's "What are you prepared to do?" to that final, glorious staircase scene, but I gotta admit - I rewatched it again about a month ago, and tonally this thing is just all over the place. From straightforward hero pic to psychological

There's a pretty good chance this book is a direct result of Shatner's grandkids trying desperately to keep Grandpa from telling another one of his goddamn horse stories every time they visit.

God bless you - I may have a new profile pic.
