Well all of the prequel stuff causes problems with the Original Trilogy because so much of the storyline and setting no longer makes sense with the overall dramatic escalation that takes place. The battle of the First Death Star involves 30 X-wings and Y-wings which sounded kinda cool in 1977...

Ghostbusters 2 is really a travesty, especially as it came after the very successful animated series (with JMS of Babylon-5, Spiderman comics etc. as script editor). The whole notion that after Gozer vanished there was no more ghosts was in direct contrast to the rich stories being played out...

Why, oh god, why is there NO autosave feature?? I was actually doing pretty good about keeping my game saved before making any big changes to the landscape in case I fucked up but then I went like 90 minutes without making any big changes and my computer promptly rebooted for a Windows Update...

I was typing up some thoughts on PAX East and how the show this year seemed 'lessened' compared to previous years and was looking through the stuff I had gathered at the previous two years worth of shows and suddenly realized that Wildstar existed. I had actually completely forgotten about this...

I mean they might kill Roy to open up a sidekick slot for Thea who would then become Speedy.

Well they used S.W.O.R.D. in the Avenger's Earth's Mightiest Heroes the animated series from 2010. Also note that the use of S.W.O.R.D. in that series involved Mockingbird AKA Bobbi Morse.

We have a little under half the season left thanks to the 8 episode Agent Carter break in the winter. This means that they can use the time to move forward the Inhumans storyline as well as set the stage for Avengers. Given that the finale will take place only a couple weeks after the movie...

Wow so everyone hates muta.. I mean Inhumans. To be fair though the Kree guy seemed like an outcast himself who was trying to keep knowledge of the Inhumans away from the rest of the Kree empire. Worth noting also that Coulson and company seem to think you need the city under Puerto Rico to...

Welp SyFy killed this as a potential series. I guess they feel their slate of other shows are strong enough that they didn't need to pick up Ascension. I think ultimately it was trying to do too many things and failed at doing any of them particularly well.

Thanks for merging the threads. I searched for the original one but came up with zero hits proving once again that the vb4 search function is just terrible. Episode 2 was the highlight so far, I liked where they were going by the end of that episode (first one following the original pilot) but...

Above is just the trailer, but I think anyone can see episode 1 but you need to be PlayStation+ for anything beyond that first episode. Although why anyone would have a PS4 without PS+ is beyond me. All the multiplayer requires it and they give you free games each month including some of the...

So today the first three episodes of Powers unlock and then another episode comes every Tuesday for the rest of the season. This is a slight variation on what Netflix does with their binge-watch from day one scenario, but at least they put enough content out initially so you can get a feel for...

So very awesome that they are using images from his scenes on the 90s Flash to show what happened 20 years ago.

I'm going to be very annoyed if they kill off Roy so that Thea can become Speedy.

Mother of God what have they done to the McDonald's menu board? I was driving through a distant suburb the other day and decided I wanted some fries so I swung into a newish looking MikeyDs. The menu board was almost incomprehensible with some bastard hybrid of Extra Value Meals (still with...

Don't say you weren't warned...

Yeah as much as it makes sense for Widow to be the one to die (she has no announced solo movie) I really don't see them offing what was the only female Avenger and is still just one of two with Scarlet Witch being added.

I'm guessing Mockingbird is working for Fury in his new capacity of whatever. Probably forming S.W.O.R.D. Interesting how quickly they go from super power fanboys to "we hate muta...I mean Inhumans". I'm not convinced that the blind guy is actually Reader since we've only seen him teleport...

Yeah the season was very slow, almost glacial in fact. The entirety of the plot focused on a single planet whereas we were used to lots of face paced switches from front to front during the Clone Wars. I will say that they spent their time on character development and seem to have done a...

I cant believe that Jeffrey Combs wasn't actually Dollmaker. I figured he was just teasing about being the administrator... Why you would have Jeffrey Combs on your show and then sacrifice him the next episode is just head scratching.

I saw it this weekend and I was entertained. The movie had some big pacing issues, notably among the repeating theme of Jupiter getting kidnapped by one of her space relatives but I did like the style elements and the root story concept of immortality resulting from using humans as a cash crop...

Leonard Nimoy "Spock" dead at the age of 83

It is kinda cool how this picture has turned into an accidental color bias example. Even looking at the picture of the dress in proper lighting where it is clearly blue and black does not help me see the photo as anything but white and gold (or very pale blue and brownish)

Well since we know that the Lazarus Pits do exist in the Arrowverse I suppose Nyssa could go do something crazy and revive Sarah who then takes on a new identity... I mean if you have her in the same universe it would be very odd to be a different character. As far as names go they have a lot...

Remember Brandon Routh was always supposed to be the Blue Beetle because he's a tech-based super hero which was more fitting with the overall non-superpowered vibe that Arrow has going on. At the last minute before the season started filming Warner Bros / DC said "no can do Blue Beetle" and...

I wondered what they would do for the stinger and I was suitably surprised. In retrospect it makes perfect sense and ties in well with the Captain America movies.

I actually have taken to randomly turning around when being chased just for this reason and people often break off. I call it the "Han Solo" maneuver

I got the raid quest dude in my Garrison and had to hunt around for someone with the profession vendor since I am actually a tailor. I can see where it gets people visiting each other's Garrisons in ways maybe that the Invasions never did...but meh.

Black people in superhero comics are A-OK so long as they only have one eye...

This is why those marketing campaigns are so big come Oscar time. Because the number of voters in the Academy is relatively small and skewed heavily towards people who are pretty distant from the creative process in each category. I mean there's as many people in the Public Relations branch as...

Okay its the last Tuesday of sweeps and instead of showing a new episode of The Flash they are leading with a special about TV commercials and then airing a rerun? What moron is in charge of programming at the CW? Sure I can understand going into reruns for March due to local and national...

Brightwing is free-to-play this week and holy schnikes he's strong. Kinda challenging to play of course, but man he's handy.

I sure do hope this Cris...err Secret Wars thing this year just plain erases most of what happened with mutants for the past 10 years. Everytime I get an itch of nostalgia to check out the Xmen comics I see stuff like the above and just give up.

I suspect this is because you have ample opportunity to see a complete tactical picture of what is going on when you are dead and nothing else to do but bitch.

I think if you like "Everything is Awesome" over "Glory" it makes you into a bad person. Luckily I'm totally okay with that.

Oooo they said the word!

Yeah I think they are somewhat following the premise of the original movie. Furthermore I'm pretty sure that there are timeline changes with each episode and every time Cole goes back to 2043, but most of the time he doesn't notice because the change isn't too radical. But yeah sending...

Well they did sell the idea of Diablo 3 to their shareholders with the RMAH providing a steady source of income. They clearly want some sort of regular cash I fusion outside of traditional expansions

Pffft Night Room corpse is Cole. Jennifer commented about the eyes just like she was talking about Cole's eyes earlier, plus when Cole was close to it he was getting paradox effects.

The Great SIM Heist: How Spies Stole the Keys to the Encryption Castle Fascinating notion, bypass warrants and the carriers entirely and just decrypt from intercepts of raw signal
