Game of Thrones has been the weirdest fandom experience imaginable to me. I started reading those books in 2004 (when I was probably way too young to be doing so) and fell deeply in love with them. I bought copies for my cousin and for all my friends. I bought the trading cards, the calendar, the board game. My…

And half of those were from Marvel/Disney properties!

What a peculiar decade for literature we live in!

YES. I keep seeing these “she’s a good actress, but I can’t see her as Carol Danvers” posts, whcih to me means “she’s good at portraying different kinds of people, but I’ve never seen her play a role similar to Captain Marvel and have no imagination so I’m just going to keep putting up pictures of Katee Sackhoff”.

On the other hand, turning it into a fun popcorn movie with Stephen Spielberg at the helm is probably the best way to deliver this story.

Book had a fun idea (basically Charlie and the Chocolate Factory for nostalgic adults) but wasn’t very well written.

ONE THING IN PARTICULAR that pissed me off was towards the end. The evil corperation was mining into one of the digital worlds using a legion of Johnny 5's from my most watched childhood VHS, Short…

And it obviously will.

Say what you will about the Abrams Trek movies (as I’m sure you will) but they had THE best soundtrack in a movie in recent memory.

Just listen to how he blends the old, the new, and the Giacchino!

MUST... DESTROY HUG... ALL... MUTANTS...

In Fuller I trust. To paraphrase an old Jewish song:

There was a heartbreaking issue of Avengers Academy about X-23 (Laura Kinney, currently Wolverine), Juston and his pet Sentinel, whom he reprogrammed to be nice.

I know how you feel.

That probably explains a lot.

You should check out Si Spurrier’s “X-Men Legacy” which seems to be the comic this show is based on. Basically, Legion is the hero and the villain- the conflict stems from his ability (and dramatic lack therof) to manage his powers which are directly connected to his multiple personality disorder.

I never read his original series, but I read all of Al Ewing’s recent Marvel stuff, and Blue Marvel is the best! He manages to pick and choose the best aspects of a number of different characters- the nigh infinite powers of superman, the racial themes of a Luke Cage comic, the family drama of Thor, the wacky silver…

Sounds good to me. People like to put Moore up on a pedestal (and he himself has martyred himself numerous times over the years, sometimes with justification, sometimes not as much) but this movie still seems like a great idea. Everything has got to be the Avengers now, answering the question “but how cool would it be…

Dan Slott makes it a clever chapter of Spider-man. I never really cared for Doc Ock before he “killed” Peter. Now, with a backstory, villain cliche he may be but I grew an affection for Otto.

Yeah, see, One More Day (and OMiT) are worth getting mad about. Those comics offended me to my core as an intellgient adult. But what do you expect from comics written by artist and editor Joe Quesada?

Yo

YMMV. I always found it charming, in a silly Flash Gordon kinda way.
