That could all be coincidence, but given the rift behind the scenes, I can see them choosing to minimize overlap. Well, it's still Studios that has the ultimate say over what characters the TV division can and can't use, as far as I know. So it's not like this would be a case of AoS killing the chances of a Ghost Rider movie, rather than Studios just having no interest in the latter.

The rumors were Inhumans were not a super popular concept with Fiege or anyone else on the movie side and their push was 100% Perlmutter. When Perlmutter got exiled from the film side, any chance of an Inhumans movie probably went with him.

I'd imagine that a lot of push for Inhumans was as a substitute for mutants and now that X-Men rights negotiations have defrosted, there's less of a need.

Noel Neill, the original Lois Lane, passed away yesterday at 95. I've always been a big Superman fan and discovered both Adventures of Superman and the Fleischer Superman at an age in the early '90s when I arguably shouldn't have liked something so dated at the time, especially as a young child. But I did love those things and have only grown to appreciate them more over the years. Noel was a fantastic Lois Lane and a lot of what I love about the character can be found in her performance. I didn't see the original 1948 serial she was in until much, much later but that's where she originated the role. She went on to cameo in many other Superman related projects over the years and it was always nice seeing her pop up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kK-ec60E3RA

For anyone down on Preacher I would suggest checking out at least the start of this week's episode which features Jesse, Deblanc and Fiore in a knock down, drag out fight with another, unnamed, angel. The whole thing is a lot of fun because whenever an angel dies on the show their dead body sticks around but they respawn somewhere nearby. This leads to a giant pile of dead angels by the time they finish.

The article I read said that the episodes will still be available on the CW website next day, at least, but my Hulu Plus account certainly lost the majority of its usefulness.

Yeah, the deal is CW website for the last 5 episodes during the season, and then the whole season goes up on Netflix a week after the finale.

I'm all for breaking up monopolies and companies actually needing to compete, but every channel wanting to have it's own exclusive streaming service kind of aggravates me. I'm already dreading actually considering singing up for CBS All Access just for Fuller's new Star Trek show. So I'm certainly not against this.

People have been asking for a la carte channels for years. Now they're getting what they wanted and finding out it's not what they wanted. The really just wanted cable but cheaper.

People wanted cable, but without lots of extra channels they didn't watch cluttering up their numbers and increasing their bill. No one wants "I'll make my own netflix but with blackjack and hookers*" from every company, since that means having to keep track of what show is on what service and each service having it's own fees or accounts or features / bugs and so on. People at this point probably want everything to be on netflix and maybe two or three other competitors tops and not like 50 of them. Maybe even a thing where your cable company has a service that lets you watch every show you could watch with your cable service but on demand, which many kind of have but at least with my cable it's no where near as useful as netflix where you mostly get full seasons of stuff that you can watch whenever. *probably more like stupid sliding timers on when you can watch certain shows and similar bullshit

When they put Star Trek on it that's going to put a lot of stress on it and there's no reason to believe that CBS will do what it takes to construct a good streaming service that can handle a lot of viewers logging in.

All US media is owned by like 6 companies anyway right? Just make the highest level parent company service and have "channels" within that to sort out the content.

Ideal for me would be something like Steam or iTunes, where I can just worry about one wrapper and then purchase the stuff in there a la carte. Of course setting that up in the first place is a logistical nightmare. Steam's actually a good analogue, since people keep trying to break off and have their own wrapper like Origin, uPlay, or Windows Live. Various levels of success, but they all run into the problem of "but I just got Steam working the way I like it, why are you making me set up new stuff?"

Well, in that sense, you already have that, in iTunes and Amazon Video. Unless you literally meant having access to all of a network's programming, in which case... Amazon kind of has that also.

Because in the long run its cheaper for EA/Ubi/Microsoft to release on their own platform, with how much of a cut Valve takes from sales.

No, what I wanted was a single thing where I can watch the shows I like but not the shows I don't like, and am charged accordingly.
