I’ll never understand hate-watching. There's so much content available that I can't imagine wasting my time that way.

One of my absolute favorite things in this run is the end of issue #980 where Brother Eye tries to demoralize Stephanie Brown by showing her the alternate reality in which she was Robin and Batgirl, and rather than it working, it actually inspires her. (I tried adding an image of the relevant panels, but for some

When Michael Uslan—who finagled his way into getting a producer credit on every movie featuring Batman—was a college student, he convinced a dean to approve a class about comic books by first asking him to describe the story of Moses and then the origin of Superman.

Y’know, I’m actually rooting for this movie to be good. I want to like a Justice League movie. Unfortunately, I don’t think it will be.

I guess my thought is that the standard for TV screens is 16:9, and as far as I know, there are no longer any theatrical screens that are in the 1.33:1 shape. “Full frame” makes sense, but “fullscreen” seems like an outdated term.

Season five is, in my opinion, far and away the best season of 24. For the first time, all of the subplots tied in to the main plot, and nothing felt like it was just there to pad out the episodes. On top of that, the main plot was great. Unfortunately, season six was my least favorite of the series, but I do think

“Why did he bother submitting it to the MPAA to get an R rating then?”

And I’m 100% certain that my favorite line of the movie⁠—”Why do people keep telling me that?”is going to be cut because there’s no way it wasn’t written by Whedon.

Can we really call that aspect ratio "fullscreen" anymore?

Because they're "grown-ups"!

“I am Iron Man" is a quote from a song from 1970.

Snyder also made some comment about how superheroes are more vertical than horizontal (except for when Superman flies). I mean, I guess, but since humans see things horizontally, that 4x3 frame looks pretty cramped, especially when viewed on a wide screen.

As for Torchwood, I watched the teaser for Cyber Woman and immediately stopped watching.

Oops! You’re right, but Feige was an EP on the show and was, according to the showrunners, “very invested.” I think it’s safe to say that Feige has a very different feeling about Agent Carter than he does the other Marvel Television properties.

Agent Carter was produced by the feature film group, not the television group. Kevin Feige was an executive producer on the show.

I’m glad to know that I'm not the only person who feels this way. I find it interesting that Escape From New York was edited by the game guy who did Star Trek The Motion Picture, which is definitely not known for its fast pace.

When watching Sinister, I couldn’t help but be distracted by the fact that, once technology reached Super 8, everything was in that format from then on. Up until then, Bughuul—one of the silliest names for a horror movie villain I can think of—appeared in whatever was most contemporaneous. Why didn’t he continue to

“[Gilgamesh] began his kingship as a cruel despot. He lorded over his subjects, raping any woman who struck his fancy, whether she was the wife of one of his warriors or the daughter of a nobleman.”

I am so fucking tired of this song and would be happy to never hear any version of it again.

I mixed feelings about Doom Eternal. I was not a fan of the increased platforming. Aside from that, I ended up not finishing because I found it got to feel more tedious than fun to kill all the monsters, especially when they started throwing the Marauder at you as one of the standard enemies.
