A lot of that book really did seem like it had been foisted on him by Marvel, similar to how Jason Aaron hasn’t done great on big event books that guide the direction of the whole universe, and while Nick Spencer’s work on Cap has been contentious as hell, he has done good work when in corners of the universe no one…

I love the moment when Logan gets told that Wade never cashed any of his checks, that in his own way Wade was legitimately in it for the right reasons, yet another attempt in his long line of attempts to be the hero reality will never allow him to be.

I feel like another thing may be that he was finally working with A-List characters, for basically the first time in his career, so very likely had a lot more editorial mandates and notes on his scripts. A lot of people forget that Remender’s best work generally involved deconstructing and taking a sledgehammer to…

9 to 5, a movie in which a woman and her coworkers kidnap their sexist boss to get money by blackmailing him, they also make a bunch of changes at the office while he’s tied to a chair. Also I’m just going to ignore the problematic things you said in the rest of your comment, because I don’t feel like arguing today.

Yeah, but I never know how people will react to jokes on here, so “reaching” seemed a bit safer than “jerking off a child”

The lack of variation was due to the budget only allowing them to make like, 3 or 4 alien costumes, people seem to forget that the movies had a relatively low budget for a sci-fi film at the time.

Is...is the guy in the header picture reaching for that kids crotch?

The movie you just described is essentially 9 to 5, also why are you equating women refusing to invest in your low budget film with women in the studio system not wanting to direct? That’s a false equivalency if I ever heard one.

Wasn’t Lucifer cancelled? Shouldn’t the article be calling it the series finale?

I think the slight is the fact that the field isn’t just male driven, but that the deck is categorically stacked against women who want to be filmmakers. As we’ve known for awhile and has been put under even greater scrutiny thanks to the metoo movement is that Hollywood is run by boorish pig men who do everything in…

Heh, friggin Kinja, I was replying to a comment about Hot Shots Part Deux, but for whatever reason it got crammed down under the discussion about Kentucky Fried Movie, which is an absolute favorite of mine. “Switch these two, and get this man a drink!”

meh

Ok, upon reading further, Nebula is coerced into reverting the universe to it’s state before Thanos had the Gauntlet by Thanos himself, at which point Adam grabs it and then has it for awhile. Oy, that whole period of comics was so dense, it all kind of blurs together in my head.

Nope, I had to go check wikipedia since its been about ten years since I last read it and this is in the opening paragraphs: “After the Infinity Gauntlet is stolen by Thanos’ villainous granddaughter Nebula, Thanos aids the remaining heroes in defeating her. Warlock ultimately obtains the Infinity Gauntlet and uses…

First off, there are people who still haven’t seen the movie, so thanks for the spoiler warning, second as in the original infinity gauntlet story from the comics, having a glove that gives you the powers of the being who created the universe basically let’s you kill or revive anyone you want, in the original story…

Cancelled or not? I’m walking on air wondering when I’ll be on Tv, Cancelled already without a wing or a prayer. Who cancelled me? Believe it or not ABC!

Yeah, but Good Place is way more serialized in its storytelling, the longer seasons tended to give B99 more time to go off on weird tangents for an entire episode, it’s how we got great stuff like when Holt and Jake were in witness protection, Or in this season when we got one of the shows all time best episodes with…

Thats not how sitcoms work...

Or, and I’m just spitballing here, NBC revives Sledge Hammer!

Only 13 episodes? Way to show your faith in the show NBC...
