The Avengers, Age of Ultron, Infinity War & Endgame (2012-2019)
Thanks @Shepherd Here's a pretty comprehensive rundown of where we're currently at with the MCU, I believe from the same crew that brought us the Road to Civil War video a couple of years back. Really brings home how close we are to the culmination of ten years' worth of groundwork.

Annihilation
The prose in the books is really top-notch if you're into that sort of thing. It seems like some folks had a few issues with the story, which I can understand, but the guy can certainly write and I think there’s a deeper level of appreciation to be had compared to conventional sci-fi stuff.

Annihilation
I whipped through the first book in fairly short order and, while it sounds like they've taken a few liberties with the plot, they seem to have gotten the tone and the essence of it pretty spot-on. I'm looking forward to giving it a watch.

Football
The only collective selling point of Moyes, Lambert, Pardew and Hughes seems to be their experience. Never mind that they've all spent the majority of their managerial careers serving up eye-bleedingly awful football, they've been doing it a long time and that somehow makes them a better bet than making a vaguely imaginative appointment. And still somehow, they'll be the first ones on TV moaning about how these chances never come to British managers.

I can't wait, although I've half a mind to watch S1 in its entirety again first, to make sure I can piece it all together.

Our fans seemed curiously apathetic towards Grabban when he was here, but he'll always weigh in with goals at this level. We certainly miss him, although the way we are at the back at the moment, we'd need to be scoring three or four every week just to be in with a chance of getting a draw. As for Coleman, he probably thought he'd be able to walk in to the club, give the players a shake and coast into a mid table finish. If it was that simple, surely Grayson would have managed it.

Marvel's Jessica Jones
So what's everyone's opinion of S2? Early reviews for the first half of the season were highly positive, but I haven't had a chance to give it a watch yet. Of all the characters I'd expect to show up in the MCU, The Whizzer would have been pretty far down the list. And I thought Agent Carter carried some deep cut Marvel references.

And a short 'behind the scenes' featurette for good measure.

Bellazon's Top 100 Sexiest Women of 2017
Okay, leave it with me and I'll see if I can figure things out. I'm on my mobile at the moment, will look into it when I can get in front of a computer.

Bellazon's Top 100 Sexiest Women of 2017
Three separate votes is meant to be the minimum requirement for making the cut, and while we didn't have enough of those to make a full hundred this year, it didn't feel right to prioritise women who wouldn't have made the list under normal circumstances. Therefore, the highest scoring women with two votes have been placed below those with three.

Ah yes, slight technical glitch involving an idiot who messed up the points for Bruna and Amber and, well, that's it. Fixing now.

Bellazon's Top 100 Sexiest Women of 2017
Just references to last year's placings, in case anyone wants to compare and contrast. If a model or celebrity has a (37) next to her listing, that means she placed 37th last year. If she has an (NE) instead, she's a new entry to the list.

Bellazon's Top 100 Sexiest Women of 2017
Yeah, believe it or not, it's actually never happened before. This is the first time that I've had to use a few of the highest-scoring women with two votes to make up the numbers.
