Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

What does a portent look like again?

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Yeah. That doesn't bode well for the show.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

What the huh?

New (very short) Dancing Deadpool vid: [link]

The Deadpool writers obviously weren't hired for their ability to dance (though they possibly were hired for the ability to pass as one another).

So I just read the list of superheroes you want to fuck list with commentary. I decided to read it before the apology, just to see how it went down unseasoned. I'm trying to work out what other James Gunn stuff I might have read--for some reason him mentioning his petite girlfriend in the context of other people he wants to sleep with feels familiar, but that's probably not actually a distinguishing characteristic.

At the very least, no, if you're going to direct a comic book film, you shouldn't write that column at all. And really not like that. But it's not like he knew. So it's a bad thing to get the spotlight post hiring, and the apology seems decent. But the column isn't really that sexy. Or funny. Either of which seems like a good goal. Never mind both. As for satire, totally over my head.

Welp, reading that is going to save me $8.50 when Guardians of the Galaxy opens.

I'm seeing a lot of "Don't you know satire when you see it???" defences, and, well, if your satire is indistinguishable from an impression, how is it my fault that I don't know you'd never say something about fucking the gay out of a lesbian or slutty teenaged mothers in REAL life? Where's the satire flag?
