I would bet good money that a bulk of people who came up with this have a shocking lack of differing perspectives/ backgrounds

I mean, that’s obviously what’s going to happen, but god forbid HamNo think any further than first-order consequences.  

People don’t sit around waiting to scrutinize stuff like this because they want to be disappointed.

In my experience, the fight usually starts when Person B gets all self-righteous about the fact that Person A doesn’t want to be affected by Person B’s decision.

According to this logic, no film stands up to a second viewing (or more), since there is no longer any “tension” about how it is going to end.

I would need to see a credible source before I believed Marvel (and their army of attorneys) consented to help Sony launch a new Spider-Man on such generous terms.

While Sony is not obliged to continue collaborating with Marvel in the use of the Spider-Man rights generally, I would be utterly shocked if Sony is able to continue developing this particular Spider-Man without a continued Marvel partnership.

It’s a tough balance for Marvel to strike. On the one hand, I don’t think folks want to see a title character have their toes stepped on by a more popular/established character (see the “Avengers 2.5" criticisms of Civil War), and that’s an especially fraught risk when dealing with the MCU’s first female-led solo…

Saddest of recs

The io9 crew over-hyping the quality of something they want to promote? WHY I NEVER.

Why, exactly, do the two crew members need to go through the charade of having him attempt to fix the communications array? That’s . . . quite the plot hole.

Pretty sure Homecoming is more like Iron Man 6.

I don’t think so. Bardem’s villain was shown to find Bond sexually attractive, but Bond’s rebuff struck me as typical dry wit than anything else.

McKellen has a point. Magneto’s been wearing some variation of his skintight red suit, helmet, and purple cape since his first appearance in X-Men #1 in 1963. His looks have changed over the years as he’s been drawn by different artists, but even now, in this year’s X-Men: Blue, he’s still rocking the spandex and showi…

Arrow kinda tried that this season, with Church starting out as the apparent big bad before getting offed by the real bid bad. Similarly to Season 1, where Merlyn didn’t become the antagonist until later, I thought the slow build was much more effective than, for example, Season 4's dragged-out arc.

If only there were a readily-available narrative tool for bring Snart back from the dead . . .O well

That seems like a perfectly reasonable criticism of the storytelling in Season 1. I’m at a loss as to how Season 2 could possibly address it in a way that provides “justice” for the character without devolving into a fan-servicy digression from the actual plot.

Anyway, justice for Barb is making my day.

Once you accept that time is a flat circle, the forwards and backwards of infinity becomes a distinction without a difference.

They changed actors, that’s it.
