New image of the Legends Of Tomorrow cast. Rip Hunter looking pretty awesome. Hawkgirl looks boringly human. Dunno who's gonna be combining with Stein to make Firestorm, or is he just in the show as a scientist type?

Yeah it's crazy how hard it is to find a 2D showing of any major release nowadays.

Nice! You're in for a great time!

Ugh, I couldn't even get through that nonsense.

Got free passes to an AVX screening at Scotiabank. It was jam packed and everyone loved it. I'm a little bit sad it was a 3-D showing, as both Miller and the cinematographer Seale have been actively encouraging people to see it in 2D. But the tickets were free, early, and the movie rocked.

Yeah. he's so much fun. My concern for Legends Of Tomorrow is that when he's playing that character every week, he'll stop having quite so much fun with it. But lets hope not.

I just saw it. It's so goddamn good you guys.

I don't mind characters being left out either, I just meant that so much of the episode was taken up with a bad arc, we didn't have time for any good ones at all.

Yeah, by basing the episode around Abed, no-one else got a real character arc. So any development of say, the dean and Jeff's relationship was completely sidelined. And then Abed's character arc was all we got, and it was no good. I agree that the story was much better paced than previous eps too. Also nowhere near…

So I caught up on The Flash, Louie and Community today. Mini-review time.

Yeah, I'll admit that shot had me worried too. Especially because one thing the Max series had historically steered clear of was dodgy SFX.

Yeah, it's been basically going to happen on and off for like 25 years. To be honest though, I'm more surprised that that trailer didn't light your (metaphorical) loins alight. Those colors! Those practical stunts! That Tom Hardy!

It's not a reboot in any way though, it's a sequel written and directed by the guy who made all three of the original movies, based on a script that was set to shoot in 2001, but then was put on hold for various reasons (financial, Mel Gibson is nuts).

I'm seeing it tomorrow through the magic of Knowing A Guy. I am unbelievably excited.

He also seems to think that the only possible goal for a date or hanging out with someone is "I want to see if maybe we can fuck later" or "this is a pretext for spending some time with you" which is downright sociopathic.

Oh that's a shame. I totally understand being unable to enjoy food in your scenario.

Do you actually dislike eating? Or do you just dislike the hassle of cooking?

It's less the idea that someone doesn't get any enjoyment from food (though the thought of that fills me with sadness for them), and more the tone of the article that the enjoyment of food is some sort of shared cultural delusion and that its somehow morally corrosive to society.

I take it back, the worst part is the ending where he implies that having social events that take place around food is dishonest, creepy and somehow morally wrong because it obscures the true nature of the interaction. Interactions which he describes exclusively in super creepy, manipulative terms.

"Sex is, at root, just a regular biological process like urinating or defecating. But while we've managed to successfully minimize the burden those place on our daily operations, American society at the present moment seems to relish making the process of stimulating your genitals either solo or with a partner more…
