    Agent Carter Is Sprinting Toward the Finale

    In defense of the Characterization of Tony Stark I always felt like the Womanizing was portrayed as a skeevey attribute shrugged off as he moved from billionaire jerk to hero (with somewhat jerk qualities)

    Agent Carter Blitzes Your Expectations with Misdirection

    My guess, the Leviathan group are incomplete super soldiers. An early experiment before going full on with an american subject, or just a Russian offshoot of the project. They stole from Stark because they need a sample of Captain America blood to fix problems and maladies they are suffering...

    The Big Picture: Schlocktober 2014: Clive Barker's Nightbreed

    I get that its simplified for the running time of a big picture, but man am I sick of the Magneto was right thing. My understanding is, Magneto sees no peaceful resolution for Mutants and Humans. Thus if I lived in the Marvel U and I like mutants despite being normal, support their rights etc...

    Gone Girl and When Good Movies Happen to Bad People

    I dunno, if this is based on a personal experience or something you witnessed, but the problem in any situation is going to be evidence, and case specifics. False allegations get made, its true, but not with nearly the frequency some people would like you to believe. Those false allegations...

    Gone Girl and When Good Movies Happen to Bad People

    No, I don't mean the character in the movie. Bob's hypothesis is that in the future there will be a real world Rape/murder/domestic abuse accusation made and the MRA dudes will show up and say this is just like what happens in the Gone Girl movie. So that's how the message of this movie will...

    Gone Girl and When Good Movies Happen to Bad People

    No, I don't think that's what he's saying. What he is saying is that there will be some assholes out there, no matter what evidence is presented, no matter how the story plays out will engage in victim blaming and when challenged cite this movie as evidence that all women are conniving evil...

    Gone Girl and When Good Movies Happen to Bad People

    Sort of figured this would be the case as soon as the trailers came out. I expect the same thing as Bob here does. Its going to be the go to for victim blaming crazypants. I remember I decided to go back to University, a move that has benefited me not just financially, but also gave me some...

    The Big Picture: Everything Means Something

    I think you could actually use that criticism to inform a newer more interesting version of Batman. I dreamed up a TV version which would actually be called Batman and Robin. The show begins with Robin's intro and Bats has been operating for some time. Having him explain things to Robin...

    The Big Picture: The Fall of Kevin Smith, Part II

    I still don't see where this is going in terms of how personal you make the jabs at Smith, which is by and large my problem. I don't especially care which of his films you like or don't like what, if any, talent or promise he held as a film maker. You trot him out to say, hey he's evidence that...

    The Big Picture: The Fall of Kevin Smith

    While I like MovieBob's take on movies, I do find the way he handles Smith overly disrespectful if the issue is he does not like his films. He talks as though Smith as a human being is worthless, and that's just wrong. Also I am exhausted by MovieBob's hang up on Generation X V. Millennials...

    The Big Picture: The Fall of Kevin Smith

    The problem isn't that you don't like his films or you expected more of him, its the tone and language you use when describing the PERSON. You come across like you would spit when you mention the man's name and look even if you hate his films he has never come across to me as someone...

    The Big Picture: No No Power Rangers

    The question is are they trying to make a kids movie or are they trying to age it up like the Transformers flicks?

    The Big Picture: Blecch, Dull Tests

    No, remember he said not everything can be math or empirical. Philosophy does not work like physics. To weigh something as it relates to a philosophy or political view requires you to examine the entirety of it look at those philosophies and politics and then discuss how it handles each...

    Five Entertainment Reforms Millenials Should Be Fighting For

    I see a lot of people defending the lack of Backward compatibility and I really can't agree. Here are the arguments I see here and in other places: Gaming is disposable play it and get rid of it - I don't share your philosophy, but you're lucky you feel this way the existing trends won't...

    Five Entertainment Reforms Millenials Should Be Fighting For

    I'm sorry if I'm a bit grumpy, but I hate generational labels to begin with. Pre-judging anyone based on how old they are, what supposed generation their parents were, whatever is bullshit. Everything you've outlined is stuff I am in a high demand for and I am basing my consumer behavior along...
