This was great and very much happened to me! But tell me me: did you ever relapse?

It is so weird to me that everyone decided out of the blue that Deadpool needs to be R rated. With the exception of the short-lived “Deadpool MAX,” there has never been a Deadpool comic any racier than T+. That’s PG-13. Clearly he can operate without the R rating.

Do we all like Adi Shankar now? I’m ready to like Adi Shankar. Let’s write the dude a blank check and see what happens.

This just came up in a D&D game I was playing. We reached the same conclusion, then decided that there needs to be another word for a species that eats another species but could potentially share the same language.

If an elf eats a dwarf, is that cannibalism?

I just concluded a period of employment with ScreenRant. I got in trouble once for suggesting we use any verb other than “revealed” in headlines. Someone did the market research I suppose.

I recently stopped working for ScreenRant. I can comfirm that somewhere an editor is doing the math of how many stories they can make this out of. And if someone famous decides to tweet about it, that’s the rest of the day’s business right there.

Grant Morrison got really deep into mutant prejudice in his run. If you’re interested in that aspect of the X-Men story, I’d recommend that.

Legally that’s tricky. Netflix owns enough of the rights to those specific iterations of the characters (plus wardrobes, sets, costumes, music, opening credits, all that junk) that Disney can’t just pull it without Netflix’s consent. That’s not to say they can’t strike up a deal and pay for that stuff, but I don’t

I had to chew on it for a few hours, but I actually thought it was more impressionistic and artsy than it first appears. It’s not a big statement of story, but it it a big statement of theme. The montage of her falling and getting back up at different ages seemed to be more what the movie is about than alien fights or

I think this show looks great. The whole time I’ve thought it looks great. Either it will be day-glo, cheesy, greasy, XTREME goodness (like Cable and X-Force by Dennis Hopeless) or it will be so bad that it’s good and still very watchable (like All Star Batman and Robin).

I feel like there are two Henry Cavills. The stoic, unsentimental killing machine in Mission Impossible: Fallout and the hilarious fop in Stardust.

Can we talk about how weird Chuck Austen’s career is? He starts his career working with Alan Moore, and then goes into the business of pornographic drama-comics. He goes to work for Marvel and writes what is probably the most reviled X-Men run of all time. DC hires him and the backlash is so terrible that they publish

When I was a kid, my mom declared Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves the best worst movie of all time.

I think it may have been overthrown by Face/Off, but it’s a close second.

Here’s my weird take:

I think the show has all the trappings of a King work, but is actually a pure JJ Abrams mystery box show.

King rarely concerns himself with unpacking a mystery, he creates a phenomena, puts it at odds with characters and you see what happens. A Stephen King story would be more like: there’s a

Wanted to make sure you were hip to Locke Lamora, was not disappointed. Now I gotta check this Unhewn Throne business out!

Hey now, I’m a simple American. A mug is a mug.

That “kill you with a coffee cup” bit is taken right out of Chronicles of Riddick, and I am 10,000% here for it.

It’s not too late! Give me a Nic Cage movie about Dash Rendar, post RotJ coming out of retirement for one last job!

I wanna see Star Wars: Resistance, following the early days of the group that will eventually include Poe Dameron between episodes VI and VII. Filoni’s vision of this would be amazing.
