We also see that the illusions are no longer unique to Loki as Frigga had the same power, which makes you wonder whether he got the ability from her or the other way round. And him appearing as Captain America was awesome 8) I figure Frigga taught Loki, one of the reasons they were so close. Thor c...

1) There are times when you want or need to take the ship or its cargo intact. You may be trying to take political prisoners, confiscate evidence, gather intelligence, use the vessel for false flag or terrorist attacks, etc. In fiction ALL of these can become a plot hook. The first rationalization ...

Worse than the idea of Bruce and Barbara being romantially involved? I don't think so.

For whatever reason, I've never seen Spice and Wolf mentioned on these forums. Well, I'm going to rectify that now. Watch Spice and Wolf . You might be getting a little worried if you read just the plot synopsis - medieval peddler meets naked wolf-girl - but rest assured that the show completely dem...

People are being spectacularly despicable about this.

Figured someone here would appreciate this:

(Though come to think of it, what's a Star Destroyer doing so low in an atmosphere?)

Just as I got done being outraged and confused at what Greece is devolving into, I came across this news article. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2239123/Mallory-Owens-Lesbian-allegedly-beaten-girlfriends-brother-Travis-Hawkins-Thanksgiving-dinner.html A woman was savagely attacked on Thanks...

I haven't noticed anything like a decline. If anything, he keeps putting out reviews that I would count among his best ever.

Oh for fuck's sake, how could I not see the topic right down the page? And how come my search didn't find it, for that matter...

Just delete this. And shoot me before I die of embarrassment.

http://truth-out.org/news/item/12204-does-the-romney-family-now-own-your-e-vote Will you cast your vote this fall on a faulty electronic machine that's partly owned by the Romney Family? Will that machine decide whether Romney will then inherit the White House? Through a closely held equity fund cal...

Ehhh, I can't exactly blame Comics Alliance. They're already much more willing to engage in serious criticism of the industry than other similar comic book sites. It would be extremely unprofessional to go on a fanboyish tirade against someone that's agreed to give an interview (no matter how warran...

Younger characters in the Big Two inevitably end up being more diverse than the old guard. Unfortunately, editors never really think these implications through.

I hope the girl makes it, and that whatever permanent damage she's taken will be minimal. Wanting to improve lives is a terrible reason to be attacked for. And holy shit, the Taliban just can't help but make themselves look like bigger and bigger assholes, can they? I'm glad they're so utterly tone-...

Not that it's a terribly likely prospect, but wouldn't Scotland gaining independence possibly set a rather dangerous precedent for the EU? It would certainly energize other independence movements in Europe, such as the one in Catalonia. If Spain's most prosperous area broke off, its economic issues ...

Accidental double post, feel free to delete.

The only reason I'm not among the fans railing against this butt-fuck stupid idea is that I can hardly call myself a Marvel fan anymore. My indifference about everything they do far outweighs the anger I feel. Why should I care? They already pretty much ruined my favorite superhero character (Cyclop...

I dunno if I would say the show got darker either, it just came to its logical conclusion. I can't point to many episodes even early on that were all sweetness and light, even the synchronised dance fighting one had its darkish and kinda creepy twist. I think there's a definite downward spiral to b...

This video has moved me to action. I haven't ever sent him an email before, but now I think I'll do that to sort of repudiate those other emails he's gotten about the original series's ending. I feel like he should be offered multiple perspectives about that. (I'll just suppress my bitterness about ...

I don't understand how a successful businesswoman could say something as dumb-fuck stupid as "there is no monopoly on becoming a millionaire." Um, yes there is? It's basic economics that not everyone can be rich.

They throw so much spaghetti at the wall that some of it even seems to stick. In an interview one of the writers admitted all of the Christian imagery was picked because it seemed foreign and alien and therefore cool, pretty much the same amount of thought a typical 20-something puts into their Chi...

I definitely feel like the series could use at least a few cameos to make it feel like it's in continuity with the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Johannsson and Renner are probably too big-time to be regulars on television, but I'd be satisfied with them appearing in an episode or two. And I hear How I ...

Add this up with the incident of the Puerto Rican speaker getting booed off the stage for pretty damn vague reasons and things start looking kind of greasy.

Here's a link: http://askanatheist.tv/2012/08/27/on-the-rejection-of-atheist-endorsements-by-washington-united-for-marriage/ Someone in the comments mentions that the Ask an Atheist banner is now featured on the United for Marriage website. With so many logos to sift through (which is nice to see), ...

I guess we'll never know how much of this plot was original thought and how much was influenced by various kooks in positions of power and influence describing Obama as a terrorist plotting to destroy America unless heroic patriots stop him with their guns...

The nonsensically impractical definition of the start of pregnancy seems like a distant, distant second to the much more important issue that these assholes would rather give women potential death sentences rather than let them abort. Jesus fuck...
