Christopher R Taylor reacted to Starlord in Marvel Cinematic Universe, Phase Three and BEYOOOOONND
re: Fantastic Four - pure speculation here but 3 days before it comes out and there are no reviews yet. This means the studio isn't allowing early reviews which, in turn, usually means they think its a really bad movie and don't want horrible reviews spoiling first and only money-making weekend turn-out.

Christopher R Taylor reacted to slikmar in Supergirl
I really thought Cain did a great job of showing that Superman and Clark could be nice guys without tragedy and a "secret" agenda. And I always loved his first episode with Luther, iirc, and the "you can always find me Lex, just look up".
The casting on that show was much better then people give credit. I thought their Lex was excellent. I loved his parents and they made you believe (along with Cain) that he came from a small town. Teri was a very good Lois, gorgeous but also played a very determined character. Only real part that was bad was caused by DC when they were going to do the wedding and wanted it to be across the tv show, newspaper comic strip and comic books. Then they delayed it for some reason, so the show had to do this stupid cloning/amnesia storyline.
Some of my favorite quotes:
"That's my boy".
"Why do you where tights" "My mom made it for me".

The MCU Ronan clearly suffered from a number of psych lims: Delusional, Overconfident, Zealot. Plus we don't know if MCU Thanos has the same reputation amongst the Kree that he did/does in the comics.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you... the Mississippi Avengers.
Edit: A friend suggested "Gulf Coast Avengers" as a better name, and I agree - its more consistent with the existing Avengers names/

I was surprised they didn't do the Daughters of the Dragon (Colleen Wing and Misty Knight). Also with tie-ins to Power Man and Iron Fist and Heroes for Hire. Would also have given them a minority female character as a lead, and they could have changed Colleen from blonde caucasian to asian pretty easily.

An alternate kitty, as Shadowcat. I confess she was always my favorite X-Man.

No, I think its the concept, because it violates one of the basic reality suspension concepts in Comic books: Superheroes function outside the law but are allowed to without interference. Once you cross that line it just starts to suck and all kinds of essential comic tropes are violated like secret identities and not having long drawn out court scenes as the bad guys are tried and evidence is gathered. The point of superheroes is to bypass all that and cut straight to the justice.
Civil War makes sense in the real world, but sucks in comic books. The entire conflict violates the principles of superheroes that make it work.

Yes, well, when you've exhausted all your creative reserves, you start searching for ways to subvert the genre and redefine it so that everyone will call you ground-breaking and fresh. It rarely goes well...

Christopher R Taylor got a reaction from Vanguard in This Week in MMOs
Yeah the designers have made noises that they regret ever adding flight into the game. Their complaint? Well aside from most of them being PVP'ers and hating having someone fly in suddenly from above to attack them on PVP servers - something only a small minority of idiots players play on - it allows players to bypass the hard, slow slog through hordes of monsters on the ground and annoying terrain designed to slow down your play time.
If there's one thing game designers hate, from the very beginning of MMOG's (you used to get banned in EverQuest for doing it), its "bypassing content." Bypassing content means "not fighting your way through mile after mile of crap to get to where you want to be."
Now, honestly, I don't mind going through that once, with one character. You see the story, learn about the territory, etc. Its okay. But when you have multiple, sometimes dozens of alts... yeah, not real fond of it.

She's listed as "Bumblebee" here, a forgettable DC knockoff that is black, but this is clearly the Wasp. Just... huge Wasp.

For a moment I thought this was Patrick Warburton in the costume--but it's a New York cosplayer named Michael Byrnes--
