I admit that it only makes financial sense if they have something viable to take the place of those franchises, but that's part of what the ever expanding universe is supposed to be about. If they can't find new characters to replace the old ones, the MCU goes down in flames.

I think it makes more sense that they would let the Cap/Thor/Iron Man standalones fade and work contracts that allow them to bring those guys back just for team-up roles. And then to eventually bring the character or the universe to an end.

Does anybody remember Daniel Benzali from that short-lived 90's show, Murder One? After seeing the show on DVD, I became convinced that he would've been an absolutely, flawlessly perfect Kingpin. Not that I ever expected it to happen, but I can dream.

Personally, I don't understand how anyone could like this line, let alone think it was brilliant. I hated the movie in general, but that was easily the clunkiest line of the whole thing. It was just so awkwardly shoehorned in there, it reeked of desperation. Even if we must accept that the real, elegant "sawbones"

This is the one line I'm not sure if I believe is really ad-libbed.

My problem with healthcare.gov wasn't how long the signup process was, it was the outrageous price they quoted me at the end of it.

The fact that this scathingly-accurate comment has about 250 recommends reignites some slight hope in my mind for humanity at large.

I freaking loved the chili-cheese burrito when I was a kid, and I randomly stumbled upon the knowledge that some Taco Bells still carry it even today. So I went to the closest one and asked if they had them, the employee I talked to said, "No, we ran out two weeks ago." Two weeks?? You mean I could've been eating

I don't feel like any of that answers the fundamental question, which is, how does overcompensating in the opposite direction really solve anything?

(Though I have to say, I was delighted to realize that the tv show Orphan Black not only passed the Bechdel test with flying colors, it almost always fails the reverse Bechdel test.)

You can't be tolerant of everything, but if you're not tolerant of something (like disbelief in evolution) purely because you disagree with it, then how is "tolerance" any different from "agreement?"

Question: How can a black guy like me be tolerant of the KKK?

Good is in quotation marks, there. I don't agree with Williams in everything he obviously considers a good moral choice.

People want to believe evolution is a lie or that the eart is flat? Fine, believe it. But that belief extends only as far as your nose, and attempting to push harmful, baseless fantasy as fact onto others is like dumping oil in our drinking water: toxic to everyone and counter to and intelligent sustainable society.

If I may engage in a little syntactical nitpickery, it's not so much a remake of the Kirk Cameron movie, as it is an adaptation of the same book series that the Kirk Cameron movie adapted.

It was certainly my intention to indicate that it was.

Okay, what part of my comments makes me entitled? Contrary to some other statements here, I never presumed any woman owed me anything; I just wanted to have a chance, like anyone else would. What's entitled about that?

If you think the friendzone is a thing that actually exists, you need to gtfo, now.

Let's focus on that last part you put in brackets, okay? And that first part? Go share that with a bunch of dudes somewhere and use it to rile them up about taking on entitled douchebag misogynists, kay? That's where it belongs.

Okay, sure, but you're not criticizing specific people, it appears that you're making blanket statements that girls handle rejection one way (healthily), and guys handle it another way (unhealthily).
