I'm less than a year away from seeing a really solid Punisher fighting a really solid Daredevil? Awesome.

I will be stunned if he isn't the villain for at least a good chunk of the run. Maybe they both eventually focus their attentions on someone else, but I'll be shocked if he's not cast as a bad guy who just happens to be killing even worse people.

I thought it was a brief, fun nod to the sheer number of suits there have been in the comics over the decades.

They've had a couple of story threads that kind of underwhelmed this season, but I still think the core plots are chugging along just fine (Nights Watch, Kings Landing, Daenerys).

Regarding Lady Stoneheart - what was the point in wasting time with Beric Dondarrion and Thoros of Myr, previously, if they didn't intent to add her to the story? Those two just kind of came and went, and you'd think a guy who can be repeatedly resurrected would be kind of a big deal.

They've Skyped in before, and it was fine. Not 100% the same, but more than good enough.

I love the shit out of Vinny Caravella, but I kinda wish they'd just Skype in to the regular Bombcast. Vinny and Jeff have a hilarious energy together, that I've missed.

Giving a film the nod for doing practical effects well, doesn't automatically require you to turn on all the other ways to crack the same egg. This isn't a zero sum contest.

This is the same guy from The Transporter 2, right?

Why is that a point? He's an actor, not a boxer, or martial artist. They get paid to play-act like they are fighting, not actually hit each other, and the director gets paid to make it look like the former.

McCarthy has been in some shit projects, but goddamn if she doesn't seem like a delight. She and Billy Gardell are also pretty adorable together on Mike & Molly, even if the rest of the show is pretty bog-standard sitcom fare.

The one scene of sexual violence on this show that I felt was truly ridiculous plot-wise, was the Cersei-Jaime one last season - mostly because it didn't make a lot of sense for where the characters were at the time, and was essentially ignored afterward. It was just a thing that happened. And I think that scene

Never seen an episode of this show - seen a few minutes here and there, and it looked loathsome.

Sexism is not a one-way phenomenon. It's just a thousand million times more prevalent in one direction.

AV Club gave Tron 2 a D+? Seriously?

We really don't know WHERE Sansa's story is going yet, to be fair. The various brutalities Ramsey is visiting upon her, could very well have a purpose for Sansa's storyline, and not just Theon's (or to further establish what a piece of shit Ramsey is).

I didn't take it as gay panic, so much as "oh fuck this, this guy is never going to listen", and that stupid comment being the last straw.

Second only to "a senior government official"

Yeah, that doesn't make any sense. Criticizing how and where politicians send the military, has nothing to do with my feelings on the actual individuals who serve IN the military.

The ewoks suck, but all three original films hold up just fine.
