				 | Quote: So I've recently learned that Marvel apparently has a "video game ban". Essentially meaning that since 2014 or 2015, no one is allowed to make a videogame featuring characters they do not have movie studio rights to (Essentially Fantastic 4 and X-men). So if you thought Marvel was bratty before... |

				 | Quote: Yeah, this whole ban thing is nothing but BS rumors people keep spreading to make Disney sound like a terrible company.  They may be strict on certain areas, especially on their older classics, but they are not the aholes people make them out to be.  They haven't been that way since Walt's employees went on strike on him back in the 40s. |

			I think it's just because there's always been an anti-Disney movement. For some reason, people view Disney as the ultimate evil in media and it needs to be taken down. So they take every little rumor and stretch it as far as possible. Marvel wanting to downsell the X-Men turns into them being forever barred from media under Disney's control, for example.

			Yeah.  It doesn't mean there aren't some things that can't be true, but those people like to stretch it out way too much.  For example, yes, it seems weird that Marvel would turn all mutants into Inhumans, but at the same time, that seems to be more like something Marvel itself is doing as they seem to be intentionally going out of their way to make the comics be nothing like the movies lately.

			Yeah, the pushing of the Inhumans at the literal in-story cost to the Mutant characters being sidelined (going so far as to give the Inhumans the title Uncanny as well) is really not helping the whole "Marvel is totally acting out till they get their characters back" image.

			So we are finally fully caught up on Shield as we watched 4-10 today (the advantages of being sick) and overall, it was decent.  I really liked the episode that featured Simmons' time on the alien world (although, it was weird that they put everyone's name in the credits when there were only a few actors in the entire episode).  The next one was more of the same, Ward trying to bring back Hydra, Shield trying to stop him, something interferes.  Actually, I was quite pissed off that they killed off Banks and Ros like they were nothing.  This show has no idea how to develop characters that aren't part of Shield and keep them, do they?    :  I was so happy Ward was finally dead and then they had to bring him back possessed by an alien.  WTF people?  :banghead: Can't you just keep him dead?  At least Powers Boothe is awesome as a villain, but I'm not a fan of them suddenly deciding that Hydra was just a variation of their occult.  Anyway, I'm all set for the second half to start on the 8th now. Last edited by Dr Kain; 02-28-2016 at 06:43 PM.. |
