The Avengers, Age of Ultron, Infinity War & Endgame (2012-2019)
New clips and behind-the-scenes footage (soon to be released as a bonus feature on the 'Guardians' DVD) have been leaked, showing some of the cast in action as well as Whedon and Feige sharing on-set experiences. http://youtu.be/3uMYRGT6JWA

Afraid not, squire. If you repeatedly broke the rules, you would of course end up being banned from the forum, but any and all content created prior to that point would remain intact. As would your profile.

I'd probably err on the side of giving Elba the benefit of the doubt on that part, although there's no question that he chose his words rather poorly. It seemed like his intention was more to emphasise how much he was affected by playing Nelson Mandela (and how he couldn't shake it off afterwards) than to complain about being in 'Thor'. Still, for what it's worth, being suspended from a harness and acting out a scene where you single-handedly take down a spaceship sounds like bloody excellent fun to me.

Hayley Atwell now confirmed, not only for 'Ultron' but for 'Ant-Man' too. Peggy all over the MCU in 2015.

Way to ruin what could have been a really lovely little surprise cameo, Idris. :persuazn: Anyway, my money is on Wanda showing Thor a vision of Loki on the throne instead of Odin, most likely as one of the credits scenes. Presumably, since it's a lot closer in terms of release date, 'Ant-Man' takes the other slot.

Marvel's Agent Carter
Here's the 'micro-teaser' released by Marvel last night. Dreadful tagline aside, it's pretty exciting.

Gotham
To be fair, Jim and Barbara do appear to be living in an art gallery. I'd probably be loathe to leave too. As much enjoyment as people seem to be getting from the Cobblepot and Nygma story arcs (which I personally think are very hit and miss), my favourite character up to now is Harvey, with Fish Mooney a close second. I'm far from being the biggest Jada Pinkett-Smith fan you'll ever meet, but she plays it so over the top that she's hard to dislike. I could easily see Mooney being accepted into the comic book mythos in the near future, a la Harley Quinn.

Can't wait to see the big finale. You have to hand it to Marvel. By the time the second installment of 'Infinity War' hits, it'll have been eight years since they first introduced the Tesseract and started their long journey in bringing the Infinity Gems together. That level of planning and commitment to a continuing story arc is pretty astounding, and can only really be applauded. You get the sense that Feige, in addition to being a successful (and allegedly rather ruthless) Hollywood mogul, also genuinely loves the Marvel mythos. He's probably the main reason why the MCU has worked so well up to now. For what it's worth (which probably isn't much, as they've just blown my Chiwetel Ejiofor bias out of the water with the casting of Chadwick Boseman as T'Challa), my personal preference has always been for Yvonne Strahovski to play Carol. I wouldn't rule out Margot Robbie as a contender, though. I've always pictured the character being in her late twenties/early thirties and Marvel will favour someone at the bottom end of that age range, in case there's scope for a sequel (or six). Margot will be 28 by the time the release date rolls around.

True Detective
Read the announcement as Taylor Swift. Now I'm oddly disappointed. Kitsch has been in some notoriously poor action movies, but that doesn't make him a bad actor. Some of the lesser parts he's played have been really quite good. As long as they put him in a role where he can do himself justice, I've no worries.

Thinking about it now, I would have expected Black Panther to be higher on Marvel's to-do list than Strange. Can't go wrong with the Cumberbatch though, hot commercial property and a bloody excellent actor. The spin-off potential will be practically limitless too - I await 'Doctor Strange vs. Iron Man: Battle of the Sherlocks' and 'Doctor Strange vs. Loki: Tumblr Explodes' with bated breath.

Football
After his latest clanger (although there was of course another 'Sunderland moment' during the game, courtesy of Wes Brown), I was thinking more along the lines of a refund on Vito from Arsene Wenger and Arsenal. Presumably Pantilimon now starts against Crystal Palace. Not that I'm really holding out much hope for that one, we've had about eight managers since the last time we won on a Monday night.

Football
Terribly lacklustre stuff from Barca in the Clasico. Since Pique seems to be the scapegoat of choice these days, I'm fully expecting him to 'do a Fabregas' and hotfoot it back to England in the near future. The midfield also looked worryingly sluggish, with Messi strangely subdued.

Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
The way they portrayed Creel was really impressive. Where season one might have gotten bogged down in stop-start origin stories, this guy arrived fully-formed, which is the perfect way to go for a character who already has an established comic book counterpart. As long as he looks and acts right, we don't need to know much more than that. I have to say though, I wasn't expecting the thing with Fitz...

The Avengers, Age of Ultron, Infinity War & Endgame (2012-2019)
I'm cautiously optimistic that they'll be able to go darker without making it excessively bleak. Whedon of course has a history of steering his projects in some pretty grim directions, but he has Kevin Feige looking over his shoulder for this one, with an eye on appealing to a younger audience and keeping a billion-dollar franchise intact. On a side note, I finally figured out who Quicksilver reminds me of - Ryan Gosling in 'The Place Beyond the Pines'.

The Avengers, Age of Ultron, Infinity War & Endgame (2012-2019)
Looks excellent. Who knows, if they'd had all the time they were hoping for to put it together, it may have looked even better. Although I did like how the Marvel Twitter feed blamed the leak on Hydra. That Pinocchio music was so fabulously creepy, Disney's acquisition of Marvel has justified itself already.

Gotham
I thought Selina was a lot more engaging this week, there's a touch of Jennifer Lawrence about the actress playing her. Had trouble wrapping my head around the idea that she would have clawed someone's eyes out at this stage, though. Feels a bit early in proceedings to have that level of violence in the character. The show's biggest drag is without doubt the relationship between Gordon and Barbara. So far, she's the quintessential blank canvas comic book girlfriend. Hopefully that changes later on.
