Well, of course not. Business cards are far easier to carry around.

This reads to me like someone who's tried the diplomatic approach, and is fed up because it hasn't really worked.

Egad, that's cold.

KETTLE TAKE: Look who's talking.

That comparison may be the biggest indignity Chief O'Brien has ever faced. Which is saying something.

Exactly. It'd be like living with an extreme extrovert: I love you; I just don't want to go out right now.

I suspect it's more that the film's trying to fix things to a particular historical period when there are wizards and elephants running around.

Especially when Cutthroat Kitchen is right there.

Do you want me to wind up with a bionic arm? (Don't answer that.)

Pass.

More importantly, Glee with a prayer of consistent characterization? I'm down.

Want? No. Willing to give him a chance with a character who isn't Ted Mosby? Sure. Besides, odds are they'll shift focus to the kids as soon as they figure out who the breakouts are.

I'll take essays like this and never using the term "beta male" outside of a research paper or documentary on wolves over "serious journalism only," thanks. Was The Fifth Element silly fun? Absolutely. Would it have been less silly fun if the female lead were more of an actual character than a macguffin? I don't…

Well, I mean, we know why Black Bolt's being careful, but…

I'm going to go with lots of offscreen barking and shadow puppetry.

Someone needs to remember that for whenever they get around to a Ms. Marvel series.

Plus I'm pretty sure Jack and Karen have shattered a few eardrums without any help from special effects.

Medusa looks more like an off-brand Sansa, which is particularly disturbing in light of other casting. And how did they even manage to screw up Crystal? You don't want spandex, fine, but it's not that hard to find a tank top that doesn't look like a Flintstones costume had a Star Trek transporter accident.

Someone should've consulted a cosplayer, then. Lack of money is no excuse for…whatever this is.

I will never understand why people whose insurance is more directly taxpayer-funded than most pretend not to get how this works.
