Yeah I had remember Turner buying and selling the studio, but not the bit about keeping those specific rights.

American cheese is actually pretty good on pizza. It’s a common addition on specialty slices in the North East. But critically ADDITION. A bit of American cheese added on top of the moz, not a solid layer or the only cheese.

Oh you what. Apparently it’s more complicated than that.

These sorts if things are mostly about back catalog. A lot of these big old studios make as much or more of their past films, than new releases. Buying MGM is buying *thousands* of films, television shows, music.

Apparently not. Supposedly Mark Burnett owns all the footage and much of the rights on that. MGM and NBC apparently don’t even have access to raw footage.

“Eon Productions has maintained a vise grip on its creative control over the film series,”

The last time a president’s lawyer got raided by the FBI, Cohen was arrested, convicted and disbarred. He since appears to be singing like a bird. 36 other people were indicted, there have been multiple convictions. Only a handful of pardons. And many cases still pending.

Yeah, and that’s the thing. They’re often enough just sort of generic monster type antagonists.

Did you miss the whole don’t necessarily have free will part?

It’s definitely a “because it’s made with tenderloin” situation. That seems to be because as a popular mid century restaurant dish it was presented that way.

I have seen them turn in their own. Then spend hours mutilating the body. 

Sure.

I grew up with chickens. They do not like being cuddled, pet and played with.

IIRC they used the Chitauri because there were rights disputes around the Skrulls or something.

It is traditionally made with tenderloin. But you cube or strip up a tenderloin then cook it in a sauce it isn’t exactly steak.

The Deviants have always been the element that worked the least. They’re very “badguys from He-Man”. I’ll be interested in seeing how they work that one. They could work as a substitute for Skrulls in secret invasion given that Skrulls are nice in the MCU. I think comic Skrulls are technically supposed to be Deviants.…

How would you propose to introduce them if not with a film? There isn’t really an introduction point for them in a team up or cross over event. And this shit is the primo weird Marvel shit, so it’s gonna need some ground work. It’s also unavoidable if you do much more with the Celestials with out going back to the…

It’s a bit weirder than that comics wise, including the Gaiman run (which got kind of a half assed, quicky wrap up after some delays IIRC).

It’s not “decided we shouldn’t”. It’s can’t. As in may not be capable. The Eternals aren’t always depicted as having freewill. Gaiman in particular depicted them a bit like…

I don’t think tech school named after Steve Wozniak is even the sort of thing that slots into “expressions in a fixed medium”. It’s more the thing that would be covered by trademarking “Steve Wozniak” for use in educational context. Which this guy doesn’t seem to have done.

Your roast beef sandwich at a restaurant is usually top round. Which is a tougher cut, tends to be leather past medium.
