So corporate synergy.
-
To this point, I would say the show has failed to provide a compelling reason why it should've been made in the first place. (Beyond corporate synergy, of course.)

Man, I was having dinner at my mom's house last night, and she had Entertainment Tonight on. When they showed the teaser for this trailer, one of the anchors, some lady, referenced the next Avengers movie, and hearing the words "Age of Ultron" come out of her mouth was sublimely preposterous. It rolled off her tongue about as easily as the name of an Icelandic volcano. When they went to break, she probably asked if somebody had Burgundy'd her.

Well, that looks much larger in scope than I was expecting. Man, that subtitle might surpass "Age of Ultron" for inscrutability to non-comic readers. "What's a Winter Soldier?" I eagerly await people scatching their heads, wondering why it doesn't appear to be winter time in the movie. Where's the snow?

Alex Gansa gave an interview where he said Carrie and Saul were in on it together all along, that they hatched the scheme in between seasons 2 and 3. So, you know, total bullshit all around.

ITT we learned that JT lives in the Defense Bubble. It's like the Wrestling Bubble, but with trained killers.

I'm giving DOCTOR SLEEP a spin. I'm really not a King fan, at all, but after seeing ROOM 237, I'm currently crazy for THE SHINING, and even though the movie has little to do with King's books, this promises me more of that world, so...I'm in. Off to a decent start.

The Natural will be disappointed to know that they didn't keep the slow walk opening.

Well, I certainly couldn't tell you his character's name, and sadly, if I said "Larry Gilliard," most people still wouldn't know who I was talking about. So Dee Barksdale, it is.

This was a very okay episode. No contrivances necessary to set up the zombie action this week. So the arsonist has to be D'Angelo Barksdale, right? It doesn't make sense for it to be any of the regular cast, and he's basically the last new cast member of note standing. Although there was the doctor who popped up, I guess, but who the fuck is that anyway. I got a laugh out of Nicotero trying to explain who the other body was on TALKING DEAD. "You know, it was that guy...from the first episode...who did that thing...you know...the guy."

TNA Bound For Glory 2013 (Possible Last TNA PPV EVER)
EVA replied to Phantom Lord's topic in FEDS JUST TRYING TO MAKE A BUCK
The main event had all the typical logic problems associated with these "authority figure doesn't want X to win" matches, and it did meander and putter out at the end, but I enjoyed AJ's stuff, taking all the slaps till his chest turned purple and doing that psychotic missed 450 to the outside. I found it humorous that Bubba went through all that trouble to tear up the ring and expose the boards, but they ended up doing all their spots on the one sliver of padding that he didn't pull up, so nothing looked especially hurty. -
TNA Bound For Glory 2013 (Possible Last TNA PPV EVER)

It really shames me to admit this, but I found myself in a position to watch this tonight, and so I did. Man, Magnus/Sting was awful. I think everybody's heart was in the right place, but Sting just doesn't have what it takes physically to put a guy over strong anymore. He tries, I'm not hating on him, but he just doesn't have it. I liked the idea of the stuff after the match with Magnus being dismissive and disrespectful of Sting, but it didn't really play, because in spite of the finish, he still didn't come off as a guy anywhere close to Sting's level. Ultimate X would almost have been offensive, if only I didn't take perverse enjoyment in seeing all those guys figure out how to work that match without taking any big bumps. It was almost like they all said, "You're gonna throw us all together in this meaningless match and expect us to kill ourselves? LOL fuck you." -
Duly noted. Though, as well, that distinction belongs to the episode featuring that shattered visage lying on the sand. Look on Rian Johnson's work, ye Mighty, and despair. Speaking of, I think there's a case to be made that the 3 episodes of BREAKING BAD he directed are far better than his own 3 movies.

Dabo, son, I am disappoint.

Damn you, Jameis Winston's dad. This guy should be fetching water for McCarron this season.

What a day. A&M, LSU, Georgia, South Carolina, and Florida all go down. With LSU's loss, Alabama can actually lose that game and still go to the SEC championship if they win their other remaining SEC games. Sweet.
-
Oh, dear. You know, as excited as I am about Kenyan Drake starting to break out at RB for Alabama, if it's going to lead to sportscasters quoting Drake lyrics in his highlights, I'll pass.
-
No, they warm up, go to the locker room, THEN get on the bus and ride around to the hill. It's patently ridiculous. And awesome.
-
Ole Miss has LSU in jeopardy, as well. It's early, but we might have SEC upset #5 brewing.
-
If they beat South Carolina, they've got it wrapped up. They'd have to lose all 4 of their remaining games to even have a shot at missing the title game. And the moment Georgia or Florida lost another game, they'd be eliminated.
-
Auburn wins. Wow. You can tell Manziel's shoulder was killing him. Once the field shortened and Auburn could keep Evans in front of them, A&M never really had a shot. Johnny didn't trust himself.
-
GUESS WHO? MIKE EVANS.
-
Tate Forcier is somewhere shedding a tear for those bygone days. Auburn UP on A&M, 38-34, and here comes Johnny Football. This is awesome.

Is Rich Rodriguez back coaching at Michigan?
