    Not for Universal, they've already raked in over five hundred million quid.

    Spreading Sherwood's points return over a full season would see Villa eighth in the current table, and there's the small matter of an FA Cup final still to come, too. He might remain a difficult fellow to warm to, but it's getting harder and harder to claim that confidence of his is misplaced. Sunderland have won 100% of games in which Danny Graham has scored. Talisman! We might already have enough points to stay up, we might not, but those three should go a long way towards booking another trip to Goodison next year. If we could find a way to edge out Leicester on Saturday, we'd be almost assured. Hopefully, Dick has it covered. Thankfully, you can always count on QPR to do a QPR.

    Another one to really look forward to. The cast list is as impressive as it is exciting, although there are obviously still a few names missing from it. No mention of Peter Parker as yet, but the character will almost certainly be relaunched here, even if Marvel hasn’t actually come out and said it yet. Most interestingly of all, the return of General Ross, which presumably means Banner will be showing up.

    Good news for all the purists out there, Scott and Alex are indeed going to appear as brothers.

    There's Apocalypse too, he was always written in the comics as one of the world's first ever mutants, although he was meant to have fused himself with alien technology later on. I haven't read all the X-Men stuff, but I remember that particular arc causing a bit of a stir at the time, with folks online going so far as to declare it one of the worst comic book stories ever produced. It was basically written as an excuse to clear out all the characters they'd lost interest in - a shocking amount were killed off and very abruptly, and all the deaths were staged to appear ironic (albeit in more of an Alanis Morissette kind of way). Think of it as 'Punisher Kills The Marvel Universe' without the dark humour, subtlety or charm and you'll be on the right lines.

    Boateng's legs were still wobbling when he got up. Terrific, engrossing football, just the right mix of sophistication and excitement. I haven't enjoyed a game as much as that in a long while.

    It was a more open game than I would have expected, thanks in part I suppose to Real playing with two passengers in Bale and Ramos. I hope Allegri sticks to his guns and doesn't go ultra defensive at the Bernabeu.

    Singer has just shared the first picture of Lana Condor as Jubilee and Sophie Turner as Jean.

    Someone might be able to correct me on this, but it looks like the 'Ultimatum' story arc from Marvel's 'Ultimate Universe', which I believe was a reboot of sorts set in an alternate timeline. They designed it to keep people guessing and move in new and unexpected directions, and killed well-known characters off left, right and centre. Although if I'm remembering it right, there was nothing resembling a significant payoff at the end.

    It's news to me that Katana is going to be in this. She looks great, as do Harley, Croc and Deadshot. Cara Delevingne's Enchantress seems like a bit of a departure though, they've made her look like the girl from 'The Ring'. Anyone know who the two on either side of the group are meant to be? I don't recognise them at all. Edit: reliably informed that it's Adam Beech as Slipknot and Jay Hernandez as El Diablo. Honestly, I'm none the wiser. No prizes for guessing who's going to be getting bumped off first.

  18. Kate got my vote, but really I wouldn't worry about it too much. As soon as Leo finds the right small group of girls, the seven or eight women who are right for him, his wandering days will be over.
  19. The kind of shit site that believes in the importance of continuity and recognises that a certain element of misbehaviour is unavoidable online.
  20. I'm not aware of any immediate plans to tackle this, but it could be something worth thinking about. Quite honestly, a lot of the tags I see on my travels do seem fairly subjective, and many of them are rather superfluous. Also, the potential for them to go out of date is pretty high. Basically what I'm trying to say is that I don't really see the harm in this becoming a 'deletion request' thread of sorts.

    We’ve spent so long thinking that our fate is in our own hands that we simply hadn’t considered Leicester doing the unthinkable and doing what we’ve spectacularly failed to do all season. Thankfully the Lads produced a performance high on guts yesterday, and with just enough quality to run out deserved winners. Dick's record is starting to look reasonably decent, with two wins and a draw out of five. Still in the relegation zone, but at long last we seem to be putting a bit of form together. Where there's life, there's hope, and various other cliches!
  23. It's not a problem if you don't wish to be a part of the forum any more, but I'm afraid we don't delete accounts.
  24. How strange. What browser do you use?
  25. Not sure, but it seems to be working now.
