I feel like Batman (and most superheros, really) could potentially do something like Mad Max…

Hm, interesting idea. On one hand, I see where you’re coming from, since these heroes definitely have a mythic component and we don’t really need their origin story. On the other hand, superhero stories are just as much about the non-heroes as the heroes. If they keep interacting with the same people, they’ll have a

It has to do with character types. Mad Max, since Road Warrior, has always been just outside of society, always wandering around. He’s the mysterious stranger, the lone gunman, the hobo that pisses on the wall of society.

This gif seriously lines up PERFECTLY with what I am listening to right now (“Roundtable Rival” - Lyndsey Stirling).

WITNESSSSSSSSSSSSSS

One other thing: Fury Road follows other Mad Max films in not letting continuity or logic get in the way of the plot. (I’m looking at you, Thunderdome.) It’s perfectly set up to drop what doesn’t work and tell an apocalyptic deiselpunk story.

“Genisys showed that, sometimes, you just have to let it go.”

No....
That chart’s not right.

“Archosaurs” is a much broader taxonomic group lower on the tree, it includes dinosaurs, birds, crocodiles, and pterosaurs...

Birds are the evolution of the raptor form dinosaurs - the theropods. Stuff like T-rex, velociraptor, deinonychus, utahraptor, archeopteryx, etc.

The Theropodia

Obligatory.

Given that this chart is probably from the early 80’s, it’s surprisingly accurate. The position of ichthyosaurs and plesiosaurs is wrong (they didn’t evolve straight from amphibians, they’re genuine reptiles) and “thecodont” is no longer an accepted term. And birds should probably replace that ancient Brontosaurus on

Not quite. The “thecodonts” are a wastebin group for basically any archosauromorph that was not a bird or a crocodile or dinosaur. Wikipedia has a better idea of how it works:

if he doesnt save you, its because you touched another man’s fries

All modern birds fall under Aves, right? So this chart says that modern birds actually aren’t technically evolved from dinosaurs, but from archosaurs. Which is correct?

Non cher, Gambit never have to wait by de phone. But he do wait on the gumbo to cook.

Ugh, my memories of the X-Men show are that Xavier and Magneto were ALWAYS in the Savage Land with no powers.

If I’m remembering this correctly, it was one of many political statements in The Inferno. Dante was trying to say to the real life forces that kept him in exile that the worst thing one could do, the absolute worst thing that would make the only person worse than you to be Satan himself, would be to kill your liege.
