FWIW, in the book, the Iron Man plan is given brief thought and rejected as unlikely to work, which makes it particularly frustrating that they went with it in a movie that otherwise does a pretty good job of hewing to the possible.

I’m assuming the author of this article hasn’t read the book, as some of these things are more fully explained there.

I don’t want a Bobbi/Lance show because the Coulson/Hunter/Fitz bromance at the end of last season was amazing and I don’t want the possibility of more of that dynamic to go away.

“Wayne Industries is the section that holds the R&D department, which absolutely seems to exist solely to provide Batman his equipment and vehicles and so forth”

I struggled with the same thought before hearing it, but I think I get it now. It would piss me off endlessly if he’d really just recorded her songs. Hell, I get angry when teenagers on youtube cover the most popular thing on the radio to try to get famous (I want them to go find *their* voice and let the person who…

I keep imagining trying to line up the little scope on the blaster with the tiny slit in the helmet and...no wonder they never hit anything.

A couple of interesting sidenotes that seem to lend credence to the spy angle, though I suspect this will never be solved:

Quite possibly, a Continuity of Operations Plan (COOP) facility of some sort for some part of the federal government.

I do feel for DC a bit on that problem, though. Evans made it impossible to do a positive take on Superman and not have it seem like a copy. He’d have been the ideal for that role, but because they can’t have him, they’re better off not trying to pass off a second-rate copy.

Yes. But, to be fair, it’s hard to write a large-scale superhero story that doesn’t end up with a fascist subtext. Particularly one involving either Bruce Wayne or Tony Stark (wealth is a superpower, wealth is drawn from weapons, and it either puts its holders outside the reach of law or makes the government primarily…

Let me be the fourth to say - he didn’t care about the suit. He had $3.5 million worth of diamonds in it, and that was his escape plan and his last dime. He spent a few minutes stalling, trying to figure out how to hand over the suit but take something out of the pocket without them noticing, and realized he wasn’t…

Sigh. For the 47,000th time, people, cooper didn’t survive a black hole thanks to his love of his daughter. He entered a structure built for him by future superpeople, who used his memories of his daughter to make it comprehensible to him. That structure allowed him to manipulate gravity across time, which *is*…

To each his own, but that was actually one of the things I *liked* about season 1.

Yes! Am I the only one who watched that video and saw a brain injury occur at the hands of a police officer?

They’re going to gradually introduce and enforce rules in an attempt to clean up the site without triggering publicity over an exodus.

Put it this way — that vile, misogynistic petition calling for Pao’s resignation got about 200,000 signatures last month. Reddit had a little under 164 *million* unique users last month. So 0.14% of people screaming terrible things get all the publicity.

Do you get a prize if you successfully spot him? It would be fun, but I’m also picturing people running around ripping masks off cosplayers and screaming “got you, Savage!”

I understand the sentiment, but she is, at the time of this interview, ON A PRESS TOUR FOR A FILM BASED ON A CONTROVERSIAL ISRAELI BOOK ABOUT THE FOUNDING YEARS OF ISRAEL.

Exactly. The series is brilliant because it’s *designed* around an ending the reader will hate. She spends 2 books making you care about characters, and the third book tearing them to pieces in front of your eyes while you can’t do a damn thing about it. She makes war destroy them, give them PTSD and lifelong…

I’d be really surprised if they didn’t do this. The major cost has to be getting the satellite above Mars in the first place. It’s not that much more expensive to have it drop 12 than it is to have it drop 1.
