    Marvel Universe stuff

    http://www.scifinow.co.uk/news/47895...=zergnet_83039 I don't hate Mark Wahlberg, and in fact think he could play many Marvel characters with his hot, beefy body and all. He just isn't a Tony Stark by any means though, I just don't think anyone other than Downey Jr. will be able to manage at...

    Really? Charles Dance is playing him too? No? Then he won't.

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

    Again, yes the referenced the other movies, but they also referenced a bunch of non-movie comics stuff to. I guess not as many people noticed. I think they just wanted to established themselves as part of the larger world and universe.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I will be sad when he is. They need just a Lannister spin-off of the Lannister family in the years before the show maybe.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I rather liked that pic, quite interesting really. I can now calculate how much of the show's time is wasted could be edited out. Huh, about an hour and a half. See, that is interesting.

    Marvel Heroes 20xx

    They have openly admitted it isn't for everyone. Anyone who has been around gamers long enough know people are going to run through the game a few times around just so their name is blue instead of white or whatever stupidness.

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

    I enjoyed it. While yes, it did touch on a lot of the movies I think it did so well, as it did so in a way that didn't leave you feeling "fuck, I didn't see the movie so I don't know what is going on". Also as much as they made movie references, they made comic ones to. Some were just cute...

    Marvel Heroes 20xx

    I enjoy Rocket but yes, he really kind of "clicks together" once you get BFG going. Don't have Groot yet, but have the artifact with AIM-bots. Hope Luke Cage is cool, been looking forward to him and the Iron Man update.

    Marvel Universe stuff

    There was an animated Avengers series I just watched (its on Netflix), only two seasons before they wanted to cancel/reboot due to the Avengers movie release. It was really pretty good and they did a good job of sticking in a lot of Marvel fan service and doing their own version of Secret...

    2013 NFL Season

    I am glad my lifetime favorite team the Peyton Broncos picked up that Welker fellow. Surprised his old team didn't want him, must have not been working out with thier quarterback.

    Except for one part: Ehhh, not sure if the 70's one is the best of the three, I like the 30's one a lot.

    War with Syria

    What is this shit? Why do so many elected in DC have their head so far up their ass? Banking with Assad is some kind of crime now? Fuck, I'm gonna mail him $20 to buy a few bullets with. These people are obnoxious and need to leave it the fuck alone.

    D.C. Naval Yard Shooting

    So this guy was going around being arrested for stuff, often violent stuff, sometimes involving firearms, in different states for years, with lots of indications, if not outright admissions, of psychological problems before this happened?

    D.C. Naval Yard Shooting

    This is a general mental health problem. While we do have a part of a younger generation who wants to constantly be diagnosed with things they don't have, there are silly a lot of people out there who see any kind of mental health diagnosis or seeking of treatment as some kind of horrible stigma.

    Comic Books

    As a follow up to this: These guys wrote up and I guess finished issues 24 and 25, issue 24 being a cliffhanger and 25 being the resolution to their story arc. DC has decided to go ahead and just turn the book to the new team at 25, and throw out the old teams issue 25. While I don't enjoy...

    The Netflix Thread

    When you think about it, it is a rather lower-budget movie made by a Czech Republic company with mostly British actors based on a 90 year old American character, it kind of sounds like disaster waiting to happen. While Act 1 is a bit long and slow at times and raises a lot of questions...

    Afghanistan should have been a few months, maybe a year of brutality then over.

    Marvel Heroes 20xx

    You play the game cause you can log in whenever you feel like it, beat the hell out of bad guys, then log off. Maybe you get a new item or level up and rank up some talents, great. Mostly though it is about logging in and having some fun. Clearly not a game for people who hate fun. Like Quaid.

    What was up with that horrible intro song? Who was that? Is that a real song or did they actually pay for that to be all new written and performed? Yes, this is still bugging me 20 minutes later.

    Marvel Heroes 20xx

    You really are one unpleasant bastard. It's a Diablo-clone MMO-thing with really loyal Marvel comics feel, not a Picasso, not sure what you were expecting. It is what it is and it is terrific at it.

    Marvel Heroes 20xx

    One of the great things is the developers here, there are a handful of very socially active ones who make it seem like they are really paying attention to the status of the game and opinions of the players and adjusting as best as they can. I'm under the impression they have kind of a limited...

    Ah, fair enough. They're just being shitty to the gays for bigotry's sake. I was trying to give them credit to at least be doing to as a political ploy.

    War with Syria

    All the anti-LGBT laws and sentiment that has been growing past few years. Wouldn't be the first time a political group has, when things are going unfortunate socially or economically, blamed an underclass.

    Isn't the Putin administration publicly blaming the gays for all the bad things in Russia so whipping up the witch hunt type feelings or some such.

    If you take it for what it is, Marvel Diablo-clone, this game is terrific and the amount of love towards the IP they give I think is terrific. I've been addicted for weeks now.

    It amazes me on how the group of us, who are so often at each others throats so badly on opposite sides on every issue are all essentially unified over this. It is a bit creepy honestly.
