Although it’s been done in the Mecha genre, it would be very interesting to see an examination of how the sense of purpose, stress, and close contact with danger and injury have on children and adolescents. Being a hero should eliminate all the anomie and aimlessness generally associated with youth and adolescent…

I remember 2003. It was obvious to everyone actually paying attention that Bush was full of shit. Clinton was either too stupid to notice the obvious signs, too cowardly to call it out and risk her precious presidency, or both.

Are you comparing the Iraq War to stopping a genocide? I think people condescending to you has less to do with your race or gender than your knowledge and intelligence.

Excuse me for not wanting to vote for the founder of the birther movement.

What the hell was Battle Fever J’s theme, existential terror?

I couldn’t get into the emotional core at all, and, even worse, something about the pacing made me completely unable to get any reaction from any scene. The action scenes weren’t exciting, the comedy scenes weren’t funny, and the dramatic scenes weren’t emotional. It was just dull all the way through.

I’d take issue with “to make it work.” At no point did I or anyone I know have the reaction that the film makers wanted. They could have worked all the legs in existence, but the film was still crap.

Avengers is only batting .500 at this point, so don’t get too cocky. Ultron managed the amazing feat of making a running battle involving all of the Avengers boring.

So they’re basically saying that they’ll try to fix the narrative and editing issues in the next one, but not turn the series into a knockoff of the Marvel movies. Makes sense.

What happens with everyone not on salary?

I think it’s drawn from rules about the priesthood.

I’m personally hoping that she appears just a little bit older and a bit heavier than the last time we saw her. They could pretend there’s a whole long-term plan for the character that even includes realistic ageing and going to seed.

FOr those complaining about the closure of the unsuccessful experimental series, keep in mind that the whole point of experimentation is scrapping the things that don’t work.

The best breakfast meats are obviously lox and the stuff you get from that little baggy in the chicken.

One of these days, I’m going to have to test the theory that screaming “I bite my thumb at you sir” would inspire all the shmuckheads to start using old-timey insults for the rest of the match to be in on the “joke.”

I may be in just so I can adopt that cat (I’m assuming it’s the sleepwalker’s).

Huh, I thought it was an absolutist theocratic monarchy.

I’d actually like to see an examination of the fact that the most utopian country in both Marvel and DC (Themyscira) is a dictatorship. It would be refreshing to see the revolts be about something the absolute leader did wrong, be it a mega-scale utopian/futurist policy that turned out to be inadvisable (killing all…

So it says H.G. Wells on the cover, but he doesn’t appear in the list.

I think you just pitched the Batmobile.
