Me, too…but I'm still dying to read Wright's script.

PYM'S suit was designed to control the shrinking process, and worked with organic matter. Cross' suit was designed to control the shrinking process, but DIDN'T work on organic matter. Just because they made the uniform first doesn't mean they perfected the shrinking process; clearly, they had not. They knew they

No, I get what you're saying…I'm just not seeing the same thing.

AGREED.

I would much rather not.

She's okay!

They're clearly a 70's detective show.

Teller's stock rose enormously with me after Whiplash, but I'll still never, ever be able to accept a twenty-something Reed Richards. I realize this makes me an ageist. Come at me, Internet, I WELCOME YOUR HATRED!

So they just kill the babies? Doesn't seem like a very Night's Watch thing to do. Or are you suggesting they have Valaryian steel prophylactics?

Jon is mad at HIMSELF for breaking his vows.

Yeah, cause that makes sense.

I don't know why you're hung up on the notion that "defensible" means "good". They are not synonymous.

If you could convince me that Game of Thrones was in any way trying to make rape "good", you'd have a semblance of an argument.

Patton Oswalt???

The Night's Watch absolutely vows to be celibate, which is why it was such a big deal when saintly Jon Snow bedded his wilding lass. The fact that it's accepted that the men are going to go off and shag village girls doesn't mean it's not a violation; it just means that, like most cultish organizations, they play fast

You can't just make an inane statement like that and expect to walk away.

I was also onboard with Tom Sawyer. Given the number of literary characters and references Moore shoehorned (to sometimes painful effect) into the original, it hardly violates the spirit of the source material…except that Moore's story is quintessentially British, and Tom Sawyer is quintessentially American. Still,

On the contrary! I'd say this is EXACTLY a Constantine situation, in that Hollywood took a great story and completely fucked it up.

That's debatable.
