Oh, Oprah. Even though I am not an atheist, I get tired of this argument on behalf of atheists. People can feel the gamut of experiences even if they don't ascribe them to a higher power. The natural world itself is AMAZING which is probably why ancient peoples worshipped them long before they got around to thinking…

Oh, yes! Eric O'Grady. I was trying to remember his name...

Oh, thanks for the clearing that for me! I thought I'd read we were getting Scott Lang but then this mentioned Hank Pym, etc. I guess we shall see.

I thought it was semi-confirmed that we weren't getting Pym as Ant-Man? Or is that just me projecting because IF THERE IS A PYM IN MCU WHY IS HE NOT THE CREATOR OF ULTRON!?! But seriously, I thought we were getting a different Ant-Man instead?

I could chime in with the others and point out that, hey, we don't actually know Aurora isn't at least bisexual, but I'm not. Mostly because I want to point out that this is a fantasy show about fairytales. And magic. AND IMPOSSIBLE THINGS THAT HAPPEN. This show is one where people CANONICALLY have soul mates — and…

I really liked the pilot for OUATiW, so I hope the ratings don't dive more this week. I won't be terribly sad if it doesn't get a Season 2, though since a) the show staff has stated it will be a self-contained story (yay no cliffhangers!) and b) the characters can always pop back up on OUAT if they want. (I definitely…

Re: OUATiW, it's already been spoiled that we'll see at least one crossover from the mothership show in the next few weeks because (SPOILER WARNING IN THE COMMENTS OF THE SPOILER POST) it will be revealed that the Knave of Hearts was once Will Scarlett of Robin Hood/Merry Men fame. I'm pretty sure those flashbacks…

I think the 21 Jump Street remake (which was definitely a campy comedy) was also considered a hit, from what I remember. I've heard people blame the failture Miami Vice remake with Colin Ferrel as for why we don't get straight remakes but instead we get the campy comedies. I don't know if it's true or not. That said,…

+1 for the Now, Voyager reference, probably one of my favorite movies ever. And Mildred Pierce is great, too, though I'm less of a Crawford fan than I am a Bette Davis fan.

I will admit it: I really liked OUAT in Wonderland. I'm even more excited now that I've read that this run of episodes is self-contained. It has the same green screen issues as OUAT and the Red Queen isn't nearly as fun as Regina, but I like Alice and the Knave of Hearts and Cyrus is cute enough so far. I think it…

I think its back-nine order has to do with the fact that every other new show on ABC is failing miserably in the ratings. While AoS's numbers are definitely below expectations (especially given its production costs, from what I understand) it's the only new thing ABC has debuted that isn't dead in the water,…

I wasn't super impressed but it was inoffensive and it's right there after Arrow, so I'll probably give it a shot for a while. I will admit that I spent a lot of the episode mulling over the times when this new Amell made a facial expression just like one of Steve Amell's on Arrow, haha. I hope if Oliver ever has a…

I want this day so badly, which is probably obvious because I'm always talking about it. The day Slade shows up in the present (either as friend or foe) will be the day my fangirling for this show goes into overload.

Yes. Especially considering that Slade barely knew Oliver when he missed his chance off the island in order to go back and save Oliver when Oliver went back to save Yao Fe in "The Odyssey" and then they had the bro "WE ARE GETTING OFF THIS ISLAND TOGETHER" moment right after that, I would extremely disappointed if…

I thought it was a good return for my favorite show about pretty people with PTSD. Oh, Oliver, how I've missed your (pretty) face. But much more, I've missed everything about Slade Wilson/Manu Bennet and I wish this ep had had a little more of him. I also think I will be more than slightly annoyed if they decide to…

Yeah, he's on the helicarrier with Maria Hill, he has something like two lines when the engines start failing, iirc. I remember being all "OMG THAT IS WES!!" when I saw Avengers in the movie theater.

Maybe they're looking toward the Ultimates comics for inspiration? From what I've read of Ult F4, they look pretty darn young, definitely younger than they are in current 616 continuity.

Well, I think Cinemax might've had something to do with it, but that probably dates me...

I am now reminded that the only Tom Swift novel I ever read was from the 90s and it was a crossover with the Hardy Boys (!!!) and there were aliens. ALIENS!! I don't think the crossovers sold well, though, because there weren't but a few, iirc. Still, good times.

See, I had the exact opposite happening because I should've hated him for being a creepy stalker but he was Wes from Common Law. And how can I hate adorable Wes?!?! (Also, he's a SHIELD agent in Avengers!)
