    Ant Man. July 2015

    Prior to The Winter Soldier, the Russo brothers' biggest movie was You, Me, and Dupree. Marvel tends to go with lesser-known directors (because they are more controllable, according to rumor). I mean, hell, before Guardians of the Galaxy, James Gunn's largest success was writing the...

    Ant Man. July 2015

    For a movie about superpower that involves shrinking down and riding insects around and with Paul Rudd as the lead, I really didn't expect the trailer to be so serious. Even The Winter Soldier had more jokes in its trailer.

    The Librarians

    Eve's random Disney princess outbursts has to be one of the funniest things they've done so far. I also really liked how they didn't go the obvious route and made Cassie be Prince Charming. I spent most of the episode trying to figure out which fairy tale character she was supposed to be...

    Survivor

    I think if you wanted a good season, you'd have to extend it to the final four. So often, the better players are voted out right at the end (Malcolm, Yau-Man, Cirie, Spencer, Rob Cesternino, etc.) so goats can be taken to the final tribal council. Doing a season of purely runner-ups would...

    Ant Man. July 2015

    It's been mentioned before, but I think the thing that Marvel is doing to avoid fatigue is they aren't just doing straightforward comic book movies. Each movie takes a bit of a curve into another genre - space opera (GotG), heist (Ant-Man), mythology/fantasy (Thor), history/war (Captain...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Well, I suppose if I'm going to have to begrudgingly accept playing a new role if I want to continue playing MMOs, FFXIV is still a good place to experiment, given how painless switching jobs is.

    Ant Man. July 2015

    The thing I've never understood is, if this is the case, how much would giving in to this demand have compromised his vision? Unless he was planning on killing everyone at the end of the movie, there shouldn't have been any problem with using the characters in future movies. Agents of SHIELD...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Bleh, that's one of the problems I've had getting into MMOs lately. Since they're all moving towards the healer/DPS/tank trinity, I find it really hard to find a class that appeals to me.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    After playing the trial, I've been considering getting the game. I generally like playing support type classes, so I was wondering how the Bard and Scholar fare in this regard. If I go Scholar, am I going to be expected to be a main healer most of the time? Also, how much does race matter...

    The Interview - Rogan and Franco attempt to assassinate Kim Jong-Un

    Crediting Sony with the leak is one of those ridiculous conspiracies that has little substance it you apply an ounce of critical thinking to it. Look at the things that have been leaked -movie scripts,five unreleased movies, emails insulting Hollywood A-listers,executive salaries, etc. Not to...

    Homeland

    I don't know what you guys are talking about. Did you watch a different episode than me? That had to be the most exciting episode of Homeland since that one episode where Dana cried. I mean, did you see Carrie back out of her driveway? It was so tense! Would she make it or would she back...

    Mike Colter to Star as Luke Cage in Marvel's A.K.A. Jessica Jones Sort of seems like there could be a Jessica Jones/Agents of SHIELD crossover at some point, or, at the least, will help lead up to the Inhumans movie.

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    They were originally scheduled to launch the same weekend, but DC wisely moved it up from July to March. As far as the plot goes, I've been reading a book about scripts thatget stuck in development hell.One of the chapters talks about how WB tried to bounce back afterBatman & Robinflopped in...

    The show ismoving to 8/7c timeslotwhen it returns in January. That, to me, says NBC hasn't completely given up on it yet.

    Ascension

    Sure, and maybe I'll tune in once a miniseries get extended to an actual series, but I think I'd rather just avoid wasting my time with a miniseries that has a good chance of going nowhere and never getting a conclusion.

    Hannibal

    It's unfortunate since he did such a great job with that character, but considering what happened to Mason Verger last season, I think they're at a point where they can very seamlessly switch actors.

    Ascension

    This pretty well convinced me to avoid Syfy's miniseries in the future. The president of the network recently said that they aren't going to greenlight a miniseries unless there's "potential for there to be a series coming out the other side". That means these aren't really "miniseries" but...

    Survivor

    Yeah, I'd imagine if one of them is going to come back in another season, it'd be Reed. His speech was an extremely memorable moment, which means he'd be perfect as a villain in a second HvV season.

    Survivor

    I think the main problem with BvW is it really narrows down the potential pool of contestants. You don't just have to find a good player but a good player that is related to another person that wants to play and is also a good player. Jeff himself admits that one of the problems with this...

    Survivor

    Having a deserving winner always redeems a season a little, in my opinion. This very easily could've been one of those seasons where people take things too personally and fall for whatever sob story the others have. (Not that I ever understood why Missy was supposed to get sympathy for getting...

    The Interview - Rogan and Franco attempt to assassinate Kim Jong-Un

    Now that the hackers have gotten what they want, I'll be curious to see if the leaks continue or not. I'm sure they still have a lot of embarrassing things on Sony they've yet to release. Perhaps they'll wait until Sony tries to release this movie on DVD. The most unfortunate thing about...

    Survivor

    Fell behind on this season, but got caught up for the finale. Overall, I still think it's been a weak season, but at least things have picked up in the past couple weeks, mainly because of Natalie. There wasn't really anyone I wanted to see win before she pulled off the Jon blindside. Really...

    Inside Out (2015)

    Which was going to follow Disney's formula of releasing a direct-to-video sequel like they were doing frequently in the '90s. Eventually Disney decided the movie was good enough for a theatrical release, but Pixar disagreed and took over production.

    Marvel Universe stuff

    My question is which X-Men are they going to team up with? Given the FF script details that have leaked out (eg Doom the blogger), First Class doesn't work unless they bump them up a few decades. I also can't see it making much sense to put FF in the 70s or 80s to make that work. It worked...

    Yeah, but it's a 25% increase over last week, which was the show's lowest ratings.

    Marvel Universe stuff

    I think the sticking point is going to be that Marvel thinks the rest of the ideas Sony has for Spider-Man are incredibly stupid. Sony isn't interested in just doing another Spider-Man trilogy. They want what Marvel has: An extended universe where they can crank out a new blockbuster or two...

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

    I wouldn't mind Whitehall being dead even if it's just temporary. I like the idea of Agent 33 and the rest of the brainwashed Hyrdra sort of being cut loose and no longer knowing what to do and the fallout that results from that.

    Titans

    I don't know. Since CW isn't as widely watched as the Big 4, they've been able to have more niche programming and take some risks. They've had shows like Smallville and Supernatural, and going back prior to the WB and UPN merging, had shows like Buffy and Star Trek. They've had a lot of...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    I'm not surprised Sony backed out. I don't think they know what to do with Spider-Man anymore. After their last movie was the least successful Spider-Man film ever, they just seem to be in this constant state of chaos. First they were talking about doing a Sinister Six movie. Then they were...

    That would be a good way of bringing Dar Adal back into things, too. F. Murray Abraham is still listed in the credits, but he's been in only about two episodes this sesaon.

    Homeland

    I hope we get to see what happens with the husband. The ISI/Taliban has to know he gave up their plan since people were able to get to the vault. The CIA can't turn him into a double-agent like they did with Brody, not to mention they no longer need him since the embassy is being abandoned...

    Constantine

    Gotham has had some Arrow Easter Eggs (ie mentions of Queen Industries in newspapers), so I don't think there really is much of a limit. Unlike Marvel, DC has (I believe) the movie/television rights to all of their properties, so there is no having one character belonging to one studio and...

    Terminator Genisys (2015)

    I'm guessing the personal growth will come from Sarah and Kyle not initially getting along. Sarah will think she doesn't need help and be offended at the suggestion (reaffirmed with the fact that it looks like she saves Kyle's ass when they initially meet), while Kyle will think Sarah really...

    I was sort of hoping Marvel would go with a less conventional choice, especially since Cumberbatch seems to be in everything nowadays. Marvel has really had a lot of success seeing potential in actors before anyone else (Hemsworth, Evans, Pratt, even Robert Downey Jr. in some respects). But...
