  1. http://www.comicbookresources.com/article/agents-of-shield-renewed-for-fourth-season Renewed!
  2. Man... It went down at the end of the 2nd episode, didn't it? Between Wilkes getting kidnapped, Sousa beat up and Vernon taking over, Dottie escaping after shooting the guard and Ana being shot(Poor Jarvis!) it was one thing after another! Can I just say D'Arcy was the MVP of the episode? Between him requesting a sword and the animated (muted from the hairdryer) argument with Peggy over it, the conversation with Peggy about Sousa and Wilkes in the car and just how downtrodden he looked waiting in the hospital, he owned this episode.
  3. Loved this! Got me very excited for the where the series is gonna go. Loved the interactions and am a sucker for time travel shenanigans. Victor Garber was MVP this episode for me. On a side note; Am I the only one who, seeing Ray as the Atom, flying around in fight scenes, thinks of Iron Man? Even the sounds of his suits remind me of Iron Man. It is so similar that I half expected it to cut to an in-helmet view of Tony.
  4. Loved Double Dare as a kid, even though I was born in 87 and watched the 90's version Family Double Dare. Loved watching Pops on the course and seeing the obstacles. Thought it was great the real Ben and Amy had cameos!
  5. The show was okay. Some pretty funny parts. Ending with Stuart was creepy, as some have stated. What really got me was the 6 min commercial break in the middle of the show! I actually rewound and noted the start and end times on the DVR! I tweeted the show about it actually, and will post any reply here... Who decides the commercial length, even? The network or local affiliates? Either way, fans should start complaining to whoever is in charge of these absurdly long commercials.
  6. Good episode, even if it felt redundant having people like then dad and Dean accused we know are not the girl twin and therefore the killer. That said, anyone else think Chanel #5 is the killer? Gigi talks about how the girl twin has to keep her cover and then she shows up with some excuse her parents went out of town and didn't tell her? She is also the only Kappa whose backstory we don't have, right?
  7. Awesome episode! I can't remember being so invested in a verdict before. That said, I totally disagree with the judge sending him to prison for 7 years. He is a kid, no prior history and while the taunting and harassment was bad, the fall was totally accidental and unmeditated. He didn't go in looking to physically harm Avery, as inexcusable as the harassment was. Also; As some have brought up already there is the whole "make an example" aspect." I am no legal expert, but How can they actually say that and go on to take the kid to court? Wouldn't that be seen as prejudicial? Smacks a bit of railroading or something like it? We have seen the SVU team come under fire for doing things seen as prejudicial or biased, right? Saying you want to make an example of the defendant implies to me the cards are stacked against the defendant.
  8. Right? Some top notch parenting there.... Loved they started in Minneapolis! Grew up there and went to high school downtown not far from the theatre she was at! A strong start which makes me excited for this season. I especially loved the ending. Felt like a horror movie.
  9. Great episode! Hilarious and thought provoking. Especially liked Pops and Ruby being all "I don't say it" followed by them saying it. Loved Dre's coworkers, especially Charlies 0-10 reaction of pulling a gun out at the word "colored." Just the extremeness got me. I couldn't help but think back to 10th grade English class, when my (black)English teacher had a hard time getting anyone in my class, made up of a variety of racial backgrounds, to read Huck Finn aloud in class because of the N-word. People just kept stopping at or skipping parts. He eventually had to basically say "it's okay, it's in the book." He wanted us to fully understand it and what the use of the word meant for the book and the time period it came from.
  10. Not a big surprise, just look at the horrible message board comments on her IMDB page, but Ariel Winter had breast reduction surgery earlier this summer. Good for her for doing something to make herself feel better emotionally and physically and being open about it. http://www.people.com/article/ariel-winter-breast-reduction?xid=socialflow_facebook_peoplemag
  11. I consider anything else to be a bonus. That would be cool. They do well with the galactic side of Marvel (Asgard in Thor and Guardians). I could see a great film, maybe even a Guardians crossover, where they battle Galactus or the Skrulls.
  12. Huh, interesting. Why would they do that? What if people wanted to watch them before the new one. I sometimes do that that with the MCU movies... Maybe once the new one has its home release, which probably won't be too long from know as I can't see the theatrical run being long.As it was, I thought the movie showed promise at the beginning, but fell apart with the leap forward to a year later and disintegrated at the end with the horrendous reveal of Doom and the battle at the end. One of the most important things an origin story does is to explain and show the powers and their development. We get a short little expository speech that fails to do this. What were the initial reactions to the powers and Reed running away? This is major character stuff. Even the suits I was left with questions... Do they need it to control their powers or does it just help? Would Johnny just keep burning without it? Why not make Ben one so he could maybe shift from human to thing. "Thing-out" as it were. Doom on the other hand was ridiculous. He and the final battle felt rushed and perfunctory. Marvel could do right by the FF if they were brought into the MCU. Follow Sony's lead, Fox. You can find other franchises you know what to do with.
  13. Word! Not that women being underrepresented is not an issue, since it is, but Marvel is doing a lot better then others on this front. Throughout the MCU you see strong women in multiple roles, from supportive girlfriend to helping found SHIELD to Avenger. One of my favorite characters of the entire MCU is Peggy. While it would be awesome to have some headliners the lack of that doesn't mean we don't have good roles for women. And frankly, whenever ANY(which is what it feels like sometimes) female role is picked apart and bashed for any fault found, what incentive is their for females to be featured? Why would they make a Black Widow movie when they get criticized, even death threats I heard, over her in Age of Ultron? When saying she is unable to have kids and is upset over being made into basically a killing machine is called sexist? Sorry for the rant, the topic just hits a nerve for me.
  14. Really enjoyed the movie. Funny and action packed. Enjoyed seeing what they did with the size and perspectives of it all. Loved how something at the ant-level would look so epic, such as the toy train crashing, but then they cut to normal proportions and it barely registers. They did a good job of showing just what the hero the size of an ant could do and how formidable they could be. The biggest geek out moment for me was when Scott is heading to the Avengers compound and Pym is all "abort!" Then you see the flash of Falcon before he come in... It was a great sense of "it is going down."
  15. Some news about next season; apparenty http://tvline.com/2015/07/16/modern-family-new-joe-season-7-recast-jay-gloria-son-pierce-wallace/
  16. Too cute! You can tell they have a lot of fun together on set... http://www.buzzfeed.com/keelyflaherty/times-the-once-upon-a-time-cast-redefined-squad-goals#.oenr835rE
  17. Renewal for Agents of SHIELD and Agent Carter! http://www.ew.com/article/2015/05/07/once-castle-shield-goldbergs-among-abc-renewals
  18. Right? I thought the same when Raj mentioned trying to go to see the new Avengers film with Emily, like he would not be anticipating it highly and be there opening night, possibly as a group with the guys. I can't see any of the guys treating it as just another night at the movies like he does there. That said, I thought this was a depressing way to end the season. This is a COMEDY, not some drama. I loved Mayim's acting in the video chat and Jim's reaction, but come on! I should be left with a laugh, not relationship drama. It becomes Friends where it became all soap-opera drama in the later seasons that way.
  19. We have renewal; two more years. http://www.ew.com/article/2015/05/04/simpsons-renewed-for-two-seasons
  20. I disagree. In Iron Man 3, we see Tony developing the Iron Legion, playing into the global defense robots and AI Ultron comes from. As for Thor's vision, could it mean trouble in Asgard from Loki ruling as Odin? Thor's was the hardest vision to understand for me, but I took it as trouble and doom for Asgard, which could have come from Thor staying on earth at the end of Dark World. Also; the aether is in play in Dark World and they connect the dots with the infinity stones here. That said, I really enjoyed the film. I thought Ultron was a much better villain then Loki, definitely more threatening. I think the biggest surprise was Quicksilver's death. I think that, Vision holding Mjolnir and Thanos got the biggest reactions from the audience. Also "Language!" lol Captain America can sure be adorkable. Lastly; loved the end credits of close-ups of a statue with the whole thing shown at the end.s
  21. I liked seeing the original team back, and liked all the doubts about Ward. I also loved Skye's Sonic quip about Raina. Found it interesting Cal said to watch out for her. Wasn't her end game getting transformed? What could she be up to? BTW; was anyone else, after learning she had psychic powers, expecting a scene like the one we got where she foresaw the events of the upcoming film? As soon as that was revealed I figured the last episode before Age of Ultron would be something like her having a vision and being all "trouble ahead." As it is, I liked that and when Coulson and Hill were talking about calling in the Avengers. That said: Less then 48 hours to go! OMG OMG OMG I am SOOOO excited!!! Is is Thursday yet? SQUEEEE (end geek out)
  22. Same here! 7 pm IMAX 3D baby! Geeking out already! I believe AMC Theaters are giving those at the first IMAX shows posters.
  23. Right? I think he handled it with class. Leaving instead of getting rude and aggressive.
  24. A little off topic, but as it happened during a promotional Avenger interview. RDJ walked out of an interview about the movie when the interviewer started going off topic asking personal questions. http://www.ew.com/article/2015/04/22/robert-downey-jr-awkward-channel-4-interview
