So apparently Marvel doesn't have a very good relationship with Fox, as they are actively trying not to promote the Fox movies with comics. They are supposedly starting to push the Inhumans as a replacement for X-men, and may go as far as cancelling their Fantastic Four titles so as not to help promote the upcoming FF movie. Rumor started with FF and X-men characters being absent from a Marvel 75th anniversary book, and a leaked memo for trading card artists not to use any characters from or relating to the FF in an upcoming card set. Comicbookmovie.com seems to think its to try to get the FF rights back by devaluing the brand.

Is this racist?
Yeah, just looking at the cartoon it didn't appear racist to me. I may be off base, but my underatanding is that the racism card is pulled quite often by incompetent black south africans against white south africans when their incompetence is pointed out to them.

What's on the idiot box... Part 2
Wil comes off as a regular dude who got roped into hosting rather than a professional actor. His delivery was meh and he laughed too often at his own jokes. Otherwise I enjoyed it.

Superherohype.com and Comicbookmovie.com are where I get most of it. But now it looks like the Daredevil guy left to focus on Sinister Six Edit: yeah, apparently Goddard left in March to work on Sinister Six, but wrote the firat 2 episodes and is still executive producing. The guy who did Spartacus is running Daredevil now.

Rumor there is he was offered Ant Man- Movies you've seen recently
Based on the Winter Soldier stinger, it looks more like they are Hydra experiments. The MCU could be going the Ultimate route, making mutants the result of genetic experimentation, and based on Strucker referrig to the twins and an "Age of Miracles", mutants could be referred to as Miracles instead. that's my theory anyway. Also, Edgar Wright left Ant Man over creative differences. Theory is he wanted it more quirky and stand-alone, and Marvel wanted it to fit more with the MCU. I just hope it leads to Hank Pym as Ant Man, not Scott "Who?" Lang.- Game of Cons: You Either Win Or You Don't Go To Comic-Con
A dark Shazam story? I don't know whether to laugh or cry. Check out the Trials of Shazam. Its straight up gory. Superman/Shazam: Return of Black Adam wasn't that dark, but was part of the Warner Premiere series of PG-13 shorts and features, so its definitely darker than anuthing on JL. Probably on par with JL:Doom.- What's on the idiot box... Part 2
Season 2 isn't nearly as good, and ends on a cliffhanger. The infuriating thing was itwas cancelled before a single episode of s2 was aired, and the reason given was that the producers felt it had reached a good spot to end it on.- RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS
This. I put like 400-500 hours into Civ4, similar into 3, but I haven't broken the 20 hour mark in Civ V because the mechanics just aren't as enjoyable. It doesn't have the "just one more turn..." aspect its predecessor did.- Obsidian possible working on a new multiplatform AAA title?
Wildcards! Come on Wildcards! (not gonna happen, but one can hope)- What are you playing now
Beat Game of Thrones with Alester. God damn thats a dark game.- Dragon Age: Inquistion
You meet one in one of the DLC, and meeting him clarifies that the Architect from Awakening was one too.I thought one of the books clearly stated the Architect was a born "mutant" darkspawn? The internet tells me the only mention of the Architect in the LEGACY DLC is if the player killed the Architect, Anders (IIRC) indicates that the Warden-Commander knew that intelligent Darkspawn weren't to be trusted (or some such).- Movies you've seen recently
Saw Amazing Spider-Man 2. Green Goblin was awful, and not just in a "he's not like in the comics" way, his character arc was terrible, and it made no sense for his armor to be all asymmetrical and jagged. Rhino's baby legs made me angry. Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone's performances were definitely the highlight of the film.- What's on the idiot box... Part 2

I didn't have a problem with the gameplay, my problem was the abrupt ending. The story felt like it needed one more chapter.- Movies you've seen recently
Watched the Adventures of Tintin again today. Its a shame that Indy 4 turned out the way it did because Tintin showed Spielberg still had a good Indy movie in him.- Which new games will you be playing soon?
Divinity: OS, Dead State, Wasteland 2, PoE. DA:I... just grabbed Democracy 3, but had some sort of social democrat utopia with 99% of the population voting for me after an hour and a half so I don't know how much replay that has. Waitig for Conquest of Paradise to go on sale for EU4, and Rajahs of India for CK2.- Dragon Age: Inquistion
You meet one in one of the DLC, and meeting him clarifies that the Architect from Awakening was one too.- Anyone else gotten 100% completion?
Only one I don't have is finish the game without losing a buddy. Not replaying again just for that. - Dragon Age: Inquistion
