  1. An interesting discussion on if Nick Fury's actions in the Avengers movie to stop NYC from getting nuked were illegal. Of course, as some commentors point out, SHIELD works for the UN, not the US, but it's a fun theoretical question, anyway.

  2. Japanese politicians are "seriously considering" making real, working Gundams for their military. Admittedly, it's just aimed at getting the "otaku vote," but if they actually did it? I'd totally move to Japan just so I can live in a country that has giant battle robots protecting it.

  5. The first season was written out and already well into production by the time a second season was greenlit. By then, it was too late to change anything. Clearly they intended Amon to meet his end and leave it at that. Having him return for the second season would be a bit of a cop-out. Besides, he'd no longer be much of a threat by himself.

  7. Ultimate Spider-Man: I like that they're doing more with Venom than a one-off appearance. I still struggle with liking this show, though.

    Avengers: Good episode. Interesting, in that it seems pretty clear that this Red Hulk is not General Ross. Also, Falcon and Winter Soldier!

    Hm, apparently Neil Patrick Harris is in this, too.

    I got the same problem. Luckily it is rebroadcast a few hours later on another Nick channel, so I was able to watch it without that damn signal blinking.

  11. For the record, Young Justice was new as well. Episode seems to be a flashback to the time period of the first season, and focuses on KF.

    As for Korra, I love it all. Everything was epic. Now the hard part will be waiting for season 2. We probably got like a year until then....

    Because the world is always better with Liam Neeson being a badass.

    Um, because it's still in theaters making lotsa money?
  14. Cool video featuring how Mark Ruffalo and the Avengers film crew brought Hulk to life.

    I smell a Chekov's Skill moment coming.
  16. Another interesting note is they more or less confirmed that Zuko himself is still alive, just really old.

    Wait, Fridge logic, do her shoes have bottoms?
    Yes, metal bottoms. She can metalbend them away to do the ground-echolocation thing her mother taught her.

    Also, I know I spend too much time on TV Tropes when I automatically know what Fridge Logic means.

    Yeah, the one-hour season finale is next week. Today was a new episode, though. And a great one.

    For the season finale that is. I wondered if anybody was going to start metal bending those ships. The police should not have been helpless just because they got magnetically attracted. Those War Hulks are made of metal themselves.
    Also, you need to be able to move in order to bend. It requires performing martial arts-like gestures. The policemen couldn't move once their metal suits were magnetized.

    When you think about it, this is a reason why Bloodbending is so feared and outlawed. It can completely remove an opposing bender's ability to fight back.

    Yeah, I'm betting on grandson. I assume Zuko and Mai had children in the same timeframe that Aang and Katara did (and Tenzin is the youngest of three). Iroh II could be the child of Maiko's oldest kid.

    I need this, as a shirt...
  22. Thundercats: Pumyra, you traitorous beeatch! Decent season finale... might be the series finale, as CN has yet to confirm if a second season is coming.

    Legend of Korra: Lin! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! Also, what was it they named the new baby? R-something?

    Also, GENERAL IROH! With Zuko's voice! I can hear the fangirls going crazy now.
  23. This will turn out to be made of one of two things: Complete Awesome or Total Fail. There will be no in-between.

    She played a high school girl, and it was an excellent performance.
