So when I first saw a synopsis of this project I immediately thought "uh, hard pass" but this trailer does show some promise: The show seems to feature --

Title: The Gifted Genre: Action & Adventure, Drama, Sci-Fi & Fantasy First aired: 2017-10-02 Creator: Matt Nix Cast: Jamie Chung, Stephen Moyer, Sean Teale, Natalie Alyn Lind, Amy Acker, Emma Dumont, Percy Hynes White, Coby Bell, Blair Redford Overview: A suburban couple's...

Well the overall structure of 3 branded Arcs "Ghost Rider" / "LMD" / "Framework" they really stepped up the storytelling this year. Only took a comic-book show 4 years to realize that the TPB sized arcs makes for good storytelling. Interested to see what they tease at the finale, they...

There's no way that EA lets Mass Effect off this easily... either they wait a few years and start development on something new with the property that is actually groundbreaking, or they start cranking out Mass Effect mobile games and do whatever they can to milk the art and feelings people have...

I wonder if they will send her to hell OR find a way to depower her, but she goes off and becomes Madame Hydra for realz

I figure either Heimdall or Hela. Thor: Ragnarok is the last 'cosmic-level' MCU entry** before the start of Infinity War so if it is going to show up it would have to be there. ** Black Panther is slated to release before Infinity War, but I don't see the Soul Gem chillaxing in Wakanda.

Presumably we have to have the Soul gem in play prior to Infinity War kicking off... so I don't think it can be in Adam Warlock.

I'm sure James Gunn will never say as much, but I have a feeling "Fox on the Run" was intended to be used in one of the "The Chain" sequences but they decided to swap it up in the editing process. It worked so well with some of the action sequences in the trailer...

Are there lots of people who are unfamiliar with this song? I keep seeing references to this as a very little known song outside of Missouri and Illinois. I grew up in Illinois and instantly recognized it from the radio when I was a kid. I also have to say, thanks to avoiding spoilers, I had...

I think its funny seeing everyone react to Tom dancing... its like they all forgot that he was Billy Elliot on the West End and that the kid got discovered initially in a hip-hop dance class when he was like 9. You just know Disney or some other studio is fast-tracking some musical revival to...

Damn that boy is a talented mofo!

Orlando Jones just fucking nailed it. Full stop. I expect to see a lot of #MrNancy in the coming days.

Well they got the visuals and music right at least. They seem to be keeping faith with the original inasmuch as we see things like the very obvious ATARI logo present in 2049. The key will be the acting / tone of the final product. The original had a number of standout performances that would...

The whole 'nah we aren't planning on crossing over with Agents of SHIELD' bit makes me scratch my head. Its bad enough that all the various properties only ever reference the Avengers in their respective storylines and not each other, but having two shows on ABC that feature Inhuman characters...

People have said Charles would let it skip over him and go straight to William for years, ever since William became an adult in fact. I'm not so sure he would. Certainly going straight to William would be better for overall head of state stability, but then again its not like the royals have...

In my main playthrough I let Ashley die for many of the reasons above and because I was hoping to romance Kaidan (not knowing at the time this was not possible). Managed to avoid any romantic relationships at all in ME1 or ME2 and then got it on with Kaidan in ME3 after he admitted he had a...

I will say that the whole Cassandra Nova business is when I dropped Xmen comics entirely never to read again. News articles about current goings-on in comics is enough to remind me that I'm not missing anything of note.

Why does Medusa look like a man???

Precisely. It is the promise of that big payoff that keeps the 'commoners' around. They don't need to worry about keeping Mythic raiders around for two reasons: 1) The population of mythic raiders to the whole subscriber base is minuscule. Losing even 1% of the LFR crowd is more than the...

WF / TF is an excellent subscriber retention tool. Even if you think you are all maxed out for your level of performance you still have a chance of getting a critical roll and getting something nice. No way in hell do they change that.

Was a nice bit in episode 4 where we get a glimpse of what Yvonne Craig's character did before the revolution. You can tell that internally she's chafing at the restrictions placed on her, but as a woman with at least significant privilege she would never risk pushing the envelope too much.

This was pretty freaking dumb and highlights the absurdity of Flash only having 'big bads' who are speedsters. Flash has a rogues gallery second only to Batman, so why dont they make better use of it??

I've only experienced the Shake Shack in Cambridge, but both times I have been there the burgers were uninspiring and the fries were a crime against potatoes. The second time we got shakes and they were small, expensive, and bad. My go to place for 'good' burgers is therefore 5-Guys although...

I suspect its a combination of not wanting to use GFX on that plus a general lack of lanky actors. There aren't many roles for someone who has a 'belter' physique.

Yularen is a great example of an extended nod to the fans. I bet 99% of the people who watched Clone Wars and Rebels completely miss that its the same character and even among those who do notice they probably dont further connect him to the Death Star.

I even thought when Trip and Mack met in the Framework : "Uh oh... this can't be good...something tragic is gonna happen now"

I am expecting they will announce the inevitable DLC / plot extension sometime in the next week or so.

Well keep in mind that a whole hell of a lot of people have been killed in order for Cambridge to be that empty. Offred, if given the chance, still thinks like her smart-phone using working woman self, but maintains the act because those who don't end up dead. So you have a society where...

It seems clear that

The old-tier fast food joints need to figure out a way to get their franchisees to toe the line. There is such a massive difference by location for even the most basic of foods from these versus the fast casual which are lock-step identical no matter where you go.

I showed it to someone and thought I might have to explain some bits afterward as he is unfamiliar with the source material, but he followed along quite well and picked up on all the important beats. He has read Sandman, however, and so is familiar with the Neil Gaiman narrative legerdemain.

It wasn't more than a couple weeks ago we were reminiscing over burgers (since it got stupid hot here in New England for this time of the year) and brought up the DeLuxe line of craptacular burgers. We were talking about how McDs was pushing towards fresh meat for their quarter pounders and...

Signature Crafted Recipes | McDonald's Good lord McDonald's, will you NEVER learn? The critical missing element of your existing business model is not 'signature/deluxe/artisinal' burgers! Just make sure every franchisee sells only consistently hot fries and basic burgers with beef that...

Now begins the process of sitting everyone I know down in front of a screen so as to share the collective experience. Starz execs must be bouncing off the walls in sure bliss this AM.

Well that was fucking awesome. I've been a fan of the guy who plays Mad Sweeny ever since he was in season 2 of "The Wire". Ian McShane is perfect as Mr. Wednesday, and Shadow Moon is doing a great job. When I first read the novel I knew it would be great as a long form series but had no idea...

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. He's the guy that Harry impersonates when sneaking into the Ministry of Magic. No we have heard references to Fitz's dad but this is the first we actually see him

Watched the first three episodes and it seems quite good so far. I am a bit surprised by how many SJWs are coming out and bashing the show... it is as if they don't understand what the fuck allegory is. Then again they probably would have gone batshit insane at All in the Family as well.

DC Entertainment to Launch Its Own Streaming Service with Greg Berlanti's Titans So this is back from the grave and part of the new streaming service Warner is making with DC content. As mentioned in the article Young Justice series 3 is also going to this 'channel'

I will say that it helps immensely if you have grown up / lived in the midwest and thus recognize many of the places that are mentioned / visited.
