Last month Time Warner bumped my bill up about $15 per month without warning. I was amazed how quickly I got the price back down with the old "I'm going to sign on with someone else" game. It took about 2 minutes at most. They quickly moved it back to about a dollar less than it was before. Someday I'll actually try to see how far they are willing to drop the price before actually agreeing.

Has small feet

I was about to ask that.

I'm with you on that. The selection is fairly limited so far, but I'd put Jessica Jones as their best TV work so far. Kingpin was a really good villain, but Kilgrave was a million times better.

Deep Voice

I wonder what Walter Koenig is up to. Have him reprise the role. I haven't seen it yet, but I'm wonder about two things that might qualify as spoilers: 1. Is Checkov used much in the movie? 2. Any mention of old Spock?

I know next to nothing about the character (and Iron Fist too), but I'm very much looking forward to it too. I was thinking about this on the drive into work this morning when I heard a brief mentioning of these movies on the radio and it really sums up the DC vs. Marvel movies perfectly. As the movies are about to come out, I want to like the DC ones, but I expect to like the Marvel ones. They've earned that with the solid work they've put out over and over. And speaking of the one thing that DC does do right, they're doing a one night only showing of the Killing Joke in theaters tonight. I may check that one out. It's going to be a chance to hear Mark Hamill have a hell of a lot of fun with a twisted storyline.

That was you?

All I can think visually when I see that Strange trailer is Inception.

Do they have a timeline for the Netflix shows? I know it's much further down the road, but I can't wait until they start up the Punisher.

I was wondering what they'd do for a trailer given that they can't really show any of the eight or so on their knees. So basically, that entire trailer boiled down to one thing, Shiva.

I thought I was the only one who was annoyed when people add an s to a word like anyway.

So basically what you're trying to say is that if the situation had been completely different, it may have ended differently?

I wish they'd just make new characters instead of recasting old ones.

Why were you there multiple times, parents not telling you something?

I'll be sure to evaluate the toilet seats to see if the are ball-safe.

I'm not going to rant about that movie. I'm just not interested in it and won't see it. I'm sure I'll each it someday when it is on free tv, but that's it. Star Trek will probably be the only one I see this month. I'm kind of curious to see how much of a role Chekov has, because I can't really remember a single scene with hm n the last one. I wonder if they just leave out the character in the future instead of recasting

I will be in Ogunquit this weekend, renting a beach house for a week with in-laws (shoot me). I'll chime in with some thoughts when I have free time.

Well this one got ugly fast

It almost feels like it could be an AHL move, a bit of a head scratcher. Do they really go with Ulmark and Kasdorf in Rochester or do they let on start in the ECHL?

Do they really have a different helmet for each jersey? That seems a bit overboard to me. If I had my choice, I'd drop the black uniforms all together and stick with the helmet with the letters on it.

The extra pick or two they could have added in the deal sure would have helped with that roster re-balance though. If nothing else, it could have been trade fodder in their search for another defenseman.

Toy Story 4? Why can't they just leave it where they did? That would be a great ending to the whole series.

And the coach will be fired long before Subban gets to the end of his contract. Hell, I think they'll still be paying Weber after half their current players are retired.

I understand that Montreal had some cap issues with Subban's contract, but exchanging that for a little over $1 million in savings but taking on that 85 year contract that Weber has doesn't make much sense to me.
