I was watching some Parks and Rec the other day and broke down when Harris shows up, claiming that "we could be heroes" if Pawnee opened a topless park.

I've heard that pineapple makes your semen taste great which is weird because semen makes pineapple taste terrible.

I got it on sale from Amazon maybe a year ago and I genuinely can't bring myself to watch it again. Maybe next week, or the week after, or the week after…

I'm not talking about single viewers. I'm talking about the wide-spread, pre-release consensus that forms around these releases. I'm not going to listen to someone say that a movie will be bad before it is released. It's a willful ignorance, I think, often born of a tribal desire to protect the things the individual…

I'm not trying to imply that taste isn't a factor. I'm admittedly not a fan of these movies but I totally understand them making the money and drawing the audiences they do. I just think that it's undeniable that this sort of tribalism that has formed around the company's work because of it.

I think he genuinely cares about the work he does but he's more interested in working outside the system. His best works at Marvel, Moon Knight and Nextwave, are both near the margins of the company's world and it shows.

Kevin Feige's main goal is to sell a product and appease the biggest of wigs in Disney. There's no getting around that. I think he knows that it's in his best interest to be open to fans and to present himself as one. Disney, and now Marvel in particular, have always done an incredibly good job at marketing themselves…

I have no complaints about the art in Ultimate Galactus. It's great but I would say a blandly competent book is worse than an ambitious trainwreck any day of the week.

I think you're wildly missing how simple it is and your analogy shows it. HBO and MTV are playing to vastly different audiences, creating content directly for their two entirely different audiences. It's unfair to compare which of the two you trust more when they're not really stepping on each other or trying to do…

I haven't really looked at the notes because it's not really an area that interests me much. More than anything, I'm astonished to see genuine film fans argue about which soulless corporation they would rather have control the newest soulless summer blockbuster.

Some of the books were certainly seeming to reach a natural stopping point and a 40 issue run is nothing to sneeze at. I'd be curious to hear what some of the conversations were about at least temporarily ending every series around Secret Wars.

I don't intend to read everything he's done by any means but I've liked lots of it. I enjoyed Preacher way more than I expected to and have sung the praises of Welcome Back Frank many times.

I've said before that the reason I'm exploring Ennis now rather than reading it years ago is because I was so turned off by The Boys when it was coming out.

It really shows. It's a blandly competent book that ends up being more boring than bad. Still, it's wildly beneath what Ellis is capable of.

That's actually pretty interesting. The book's clearly about the intersection between tech and folk magic but it's not really come together for me yet. I may have to look into that ebook to see if I can get a better handle on it.

Its Ellis at his most criminally boring. Like, I've never read a book where the writer seemed to care less about the concept he's writing. I also don't know how much a hard sci-fi take on one of Marvel's best cosmic concepts was that well thought out. It's like someone dumped a dull Star Trek episode into the middle…

I guess taste is relative. I prefer Days of Future Past and X-Men: First Class to most of Disney's films.

We don't talk about Ultimate Galactus. No one talks about Ultimate Galactus. Ultimate Galactus didn't exist.

I get the desire to say that someone else should take a shot at adapting the characters you love. My thing is you're always going to complain about something. If one company owns these characters, you'll find something to be angry about with their portrayal and look back longingly at the old way. It's just a little…

I think Porter is kind of a love-it or hate-it artist but I've always really liked his work. He has one of those styles where he emphasizes speed and action when he needs to but in tight closeups and headshots, he really narrows the focus wonderfully. Batman preparing to throw down with the Martians after he lights…
