When did this turn into the Comic Book Movie Megathread?

When 2015 decided it wanted to be the year of Comic Book Movie TV Shows. Or 2016. Or 2014. The boffins still seem to be working on this one.

Because Goons who hate superheroes really, really want you to know they hate superheroes.

Edit: Actually I just found out this is happening, so they're right. gently caress superheroes.

Perhaps I'm a fool, but I'm really excited about 11.22.63. I didn't realize it comes out so soon, and the trailers look pretty good. I thought the book was the best thing that King has written in a good long while, so expectations are high.

Anyone know if Hulu is releasing it Netflix-style, or if they're going week by week?

I'm excited too, but I don't think it will be Netflix style. Hulu's other shows have always been released week by week, so I assume this will follow the same process.

As long as he's not writing it, who cares? An experienced film director as a guest director is almost always cool. If he was writing and episode, that would be different.

As long as he doesn't demand that Barry pees his pants at some point I guess I'll be okay with it.

A Jason Mewes cameo is inevitable though.


Also that.

ABC actually did the smart thing by airing it out of order, because it paced things a bit better. They tried to get that show an audience at least, I don't know why it didn't gel with a mass audience who wanted a new Friends. I guess it was just a little too snarky, but that's why I liked it.

I didn't think a show could make me 180 on my opinion of daughter-of-Bauer, but HE was that show.

It wasn't great, but it was definitely not as bad as I was expecting. Better than Heroes Reborn anyway. Eddie Izzard does some good scenery chewing (literally) and there's another good actor in it but I can never remember his name.

Alex and Dave's friendship jumps a bit because of it but it's not a big deal.

And he has the food truck before he buys the food truck but it's a sitcom so it doesn't matter much.

Did anyone else have the great displeasure of watching the horrible Shades of Blue. It's a USA show from 10 years ago.but with Jennifer Lawrence and Ray Lotta. Everyone else on the show has appeared on a USA show in the past 10 years.

No...Sepinwall was reporting that Clive Owen was telling people that the show was always intended to be a two season but Soderbergh is telling people he has a six season arc planned out so...:iiam:
