    Ah, the headline made it sound like that was the case, and I wasn't about to click the link to find out.

    Wow, and I didn't think my opinion of TMZ could get any lower.

    Suicide Squad (2016)

    Why the fuck include a cover of that when you could use the original (like the trailer)?

    Bloodline

    Season was better than I expected due to hearing a lot of negative reviews. It did a good job with following up on Danny's murder, and I could see a couple more seasons being enjoyable if it continues to progress in a direction where the things they have to do to cover their asses continues to...

    Ghostbusters (2016)

    You have a producer calling people "Trump supporters", one of the lead actresses saying people "have no friends" and calling them losers, claims that people don't like this purely for misogynistic reasons, etc. This movie could be the funniest movie of our generation and it still wouldn't be as...

    I thought that article was going to be about the Cap/Bucky romance delusional people are insisting upon... First off, it's not like that just came out of left-field. Sharon's introduction in The Winter Soldier is basically Black Widow trying to convince him to go on a date with her. It's been...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    Everyone shits on Aquaman, but I've been saying for years that I think an underwater superhero movie could be fantastic considering the special effects we have now. It'd be very unique compared to all the other superheroes movies we've had. Marvel having Namor back would have me even more...

    Fear the Walking Dead

    Considering this series isn't confined by having to adapt source material, I really have no idea why the end of this season turned into TWD Season 2: Mexico. There are so many other stories this show could be telling.

    Captain America: Civil War (2016)

    That's one of the reasons I enjoyed Civil War so much. It seems like every movie the stakes have had to be raised, the enemies more powerful, the destruction more extreme. Civil War took a step back and took a much different approach by having the villain be more of a strategic threat and not...

    Comic Books

    Ever since Captain America being killed was able to grab the attention of the national media and made headlines, it really seems like Marvel has set out to achieve the same thing on a yearly basis with some controversial change: Thor's a woman, Iceman's gay, Spider-Man's marriage never happened...

    Captain America: Civil War (2016)

    I think both Age of Ultron and The Winter Soldier did a good job establishing the groundwork for the conflict between Rogers and Stark. It all comes down to trust: Stark was more or less the first (modern) superhero. He created the mold and - due to his fortune and arrogance - has been...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    Yeah, FOX certainly isn't coming to the table with the sort of bargaining power Sony had. Despite their most recent Spider-Man movies not doing as well as they wanted, they didreasonablewell. Fantfourstick left a $100 million hole in the ground. If Marvel does meet with FOX, it should only be...

    I was really hoping Penguin had another bazooka to use on Fish Mooney Bitch. Would've been one of the greatest trolls on television to make us think she's back only to have her suffer a horrific death instead. But no, the only ones who get to suffer are the viewers.

    Thor: Ragnarok (2017)

    I don't dislike Natalie Portman. I didn't really even dislike her character. But I definitely think she was the weakest part of Thor 2 and ended up dragging the movie down. It really felt like the writers had no idea what to do with her character, resulting in a plot that felt disjointed in a...

    Bloodline

    Season one had a slow start, but I'm glad I gave it another chance and ended up really enjoying it. A lot of that had to do with Ben Mendelsohn's performance though.

    Survivor

    I think it's been brought up before, but I've wondered how juries might be different if, rather than Ponderosa, they were sequestered from each other. It just seems like bitter players feed off each other and you end up with a poisoned jury in a lot of cases when the weaker player wins. There...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    If they gave the role of Thor to an Australian soap opera star and the lead of GotG to the pudgy dopey guy from Parks & Recreation, I don't think Marvel would rule out tapping a television actress if she fit the role. Fantastic Four has never really been a favorite of mine. Perhaps it's because...

    I'm not sure I buy it. That sounds more like trying to cover their own asses after all the fan backlash than anything. It's not like Joe was some power player physically or socially that could be said to have contributed to Aubry's success that much. It's not like he had any shot of winning...

    Captain America: Civil War (2016)

    I like that it gives Spider-Man room for growth. This was Spider-Man's origin movie without actually going into huge details of how he got his powers and learned to use them. In both of the other Spider-Man series, he doesn't start off automatically knowing every facet of his powers. Both...

    Captain America: Civil War (2016)

    That's why I feel like Ifinallygot to see Spider-Man on the big screen. I grew up with his cartoons, and his enthusiasm and sarcasm quickly made him one of my favorite superheros. Tobey never really had any snarkiness which, in my opinion, removed a lot of what made Spider-Man Spider-Man...

    I think not talking to Neal was fairly egregious as well. First guy to ever get voted out of a jury. It would've been interesting to hear his thoughts on that and how things might've differed had he gotten to stay. It amazed me that they barely touched on one of the biggest twists in the game...

    Ready Player One

    The worst thing is how forced the nostalgia in Armada is. RPO might've gone a little overboard with the 80's references, but they actually worked since they were integral to the plot and moved it forward. In Armada, it's like someone is learning a new language so they keep trying to inject the...

    Ghostbusters (2016)

    His hatred of Genisys doesn't even make sense and shows how little he understands films. The Terminator series involves time travel. The whole premise of Terminator is that it's a war being played out through attempts to alter the timestream. Genysis isn't a reboot. It didn't erase any...

    Yeah, every year it seems like he has less and less time to talk to people. He used to askeveryplayer at least one question, and now he'll talk to maybe six at most. They really need to cut down on the extra fluff (they could even cut down on the number of clips they show before/after...

    Nick was the other vote for Aubry which makes sense. He didn't get far enough in the game post-merge to become nearly as bitter as some of the rest of the players. He also didn't really seem to be the type to take things so personally, so I think he was one of the only ones that didn't vote...

    What a fucking disappointing ending to an otherwise fantastic season. I don't think I would've had a hard time putting this season in my top 10 (maybe even my top 5) if not for how it ended. I don't think I've ever been this disappointed in how a season turned out before. There have been...

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    Emily VanCamp is free now that her show (Revenge) was cancelled, and I really can't see Sharon Carter playing too big of a role in any of the upcoming Marvel films. And, Sharon Carter was director of SHIELD briefly in the comics. But really, if it's not May and obviously not Mack, I'd mostly...

    Haha, Fish had her DNA spliced with a cuttlefish. Get it? And... apparently that makes her able to get people to make her grill cheese sandwiches or something... just like cuttlefish! *sigh* We're going to get another season with her, aren't we?

    Did Ted Danson trade in his Cheers' royalties for a guarantee that he's never not on television? Not that I'm complaining. Good to see him back doing a comedy again.

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    So sayeth Feige: Last I heard the Russo brothers were undecided as to whether or not to include them in Infinity Wars. There's already a ton of characters they have to work with, so drawing in characters who might not be established to the movie-going audience might be too much of a detour...

    Not sure how sustainable it is when players learn the game, but I had a lot of luck with him on capture point maps. I could charge in first, draw everyone's attention with the lightning gun, lay down the shield and give my group time to come in to finish people off. Really, he's the tank...

    Fear the Walking Dead

    I think if you accept that this is an airborne contagion that everyone has, there's really never any way of containing it. You can't just quarantine people until a cure is found. So, even if the initial outbreak is dealt with, there will constantly be new zombies showing up everywhere due to...

    Gotham

    I said last season they were going through villains way too fast. So many of them were used as one-offs since the show was more procedural initially. Even this season, some of Batman's more notable villains (like Mr. Freeze and Firefly) were used in really short arcs. I think we're now seeing...

    If it hadn't died recently, I could've shown off the Radeon HD 5500 I've been rocking for the past few years. Glad I held out on replacing it for my new build (using the i7 integrated graphics which is, sadly, still far superior to what I had). For the amount of money I was looking to spend on...

    I got in a few matches tonight where the team stuck together which resulted in some more intense fights.

    Hmm... not planning on seeing Civil War for a couple weeks. I guess I'll hold off watching tomorrow's episode until someone can post how much it spoils, if anything. The tie-in with Avengers 2 really wasn't anything major.

    That's about where I am and why I'm going back and forth on buying it. I can jump in for a bit and have fun, but since matches are much shorter than I'm used to in TF2, fatigue sets in faster. I probably play the same number of matches in each before I need to take a break, but that can be a...

    It could just be that I'm being matched up with a lot of new people since I just started playing myself, but it seems like most of the matches I'm in last less than 10 minutes. The fights I always enjoyed most in TF2 were the long, protracted matches with a lot of back-and-forth. Do matches...
