Late in "Thor: The Dark World," Chris Hemsworth's title character crash-lands on a British Underground platform. He's dazed but knows that he has to get back to fighting Malekith (ex-Doctor Who Christopher Eccleston), a malevolent dark elf. Thor asks for directions back to Greenwich, and promptly boards the train. As the train lurches forward, a woman falls onto his broad chest. He smiles knowingly. This scene is one of several high points in "Thor: The Dark World," a blocky fantasy-adventure whose plot is never as exciting as its characters. All three "Iron Man" films have this same basic problem, but story was never more important than personality in those earlier films. "Thor: The Dark World"'s characters are often very charming, but they're only so much fun when they're stuck going through the motions.
"Thor: The Dark World" mostly concerns Malekith's "Transformers"-worthy schemes. Malekith was previously put in his place by Bor, Thor's grandfather, when he tried to turn matter back into anti-matter using Aether, an ancient, all-powerful energy source. Now, after Jane Foster (Natalie Portman), Thor's super-smart human scientist not-quite-girlfriend, stumbles upon some Aether, Malekith returns. Leading an armada of black splinter-shaped spaceships, he sets out for Asgard, home of Thor and his fellow Norse Gods. But the Asgardians are still recovering from Thor's half-brother Loki's (Tom Hiddleston) recent failed coup. Now, Thor and Loki must team up to save Jane, Earth, Asgard, and the other eight realms of existence from complete annihilation.
Malekith may be a major threat to life and the universe as we know it, but he's just one of a handful of characters who are run through their paces in "Thor: The Dark World." This sequel is consistently unfocused in that sense: major characters get to flex their muscles for a scene or two, but only when they're absolutely needed. There are a couple of scenes where characters get to be both important and exciting, like when Kurse (Adewale "Mr. Eko" Akinnuoye-Agbaje), Malekith's super-powered henchman, breaks into Asgard, and starts a prison riot.
But there are just as many scenes where inherently exciting characters, like Thor, kill time connecting plot points. Watching Thor make quick work of an inconsequential enemy in an opening scene should be fun. But the scene has no flair to it, and feels like a perfunctory introduction to the character. The first scene in the film where Hemsworth gets to be really charming comes later, when he's squabbling with Hiddleston about operating a commandeered dark-elven space-ship. The squabbling itself isn't that funny, but the scene's pay-off is. Hemsworth's eyes light up as he gets the ship to fly, instantly reminding you why you came in the first place.
Still, more often than not, "Thor: The Dark World" is more busy than exciting. There are a couple sub-plots too many, like the one with frequently-naked super-scientist Erik Selvig (Stellan Skarsgard). And too many characters that are introduced with a promising scene, like Rainbow Bridge guardian Heimdall (Idris Elba), are forgotten during the film's climactic battle. The film's world also generally looks slapped together, especially the dark elves, who look like a cross between "Land of the Lost"'s Sleestaks and "Doctor Who"'s Cybermen. Visually, "Thor: The Dark World" is a step back after "Thor," which at least looked unique enough.
But in most other respects, "Thor: The Dark World" is a step in the right direction. The scene where Thor enlists Loki's help is a perfect example of the film's slight but memorable improvements. The conversation they have is inconsequential, but watching a defeated Loki surrounded by over-turned furniture and a reddish-brown PG-13 blood-substitute on his prison cell's walls makes the scene worthwhile. Hemsworth and Hiddleston have such good chemistry that it sometimes looks like Thor and Loki will kiss before Thor and Jane will. There's just enough tension and humor in "Thor: The Dark World" to make the film's otherwise listless proceedings worth watching, but only just.
This message came to me from a reader named Peter Svensland. He and a fr...

When Pat Robertson Says the GOP is Too Extreme, That's a New Low
by Randi Rhodes
posted Oct 25 2011 5:56PM
Rick Perry has come out with a plan for flat-tax, to help out his flat-lining campaign. When it was pointed out to him that his tax plan would give millions of dollars to millionaires, Perry said "But I don't care about that." It would be bad if Perry really didn't care. But the truth is worse—that's what the plan is supposed to do.
Republicans are still refusing to give President Obama credit for ending the Iraq War. It takes a lot of gall to criticize someone for how they fixed your own mistake. Maybe that's why the Republicans who pushed us into the Iraq War in the first place are so touchy about it. It's like throwing up all over yourself—you're too embarrassed to truly be thankful to the person who cleans up the mess.
Herman Cain has released an utterly bizarre campaign ad. Of course, the point of any Herman Cain campaign ad is that Herman Cain should be president, which is utterly bizarre right off the bat. The ad starts off with some creepy guy with a mustache saying "Mark Block here," like we're supposed to know him… kind of like "Hey, it's Vince, from Shamwow!" Block goes on to explain that he's the "Chief of Staff for Herman Cain and CEO of Friends of Herman Cain," which has to be the least impressive title since "CEO of Godfather's Pizza." The best part is that, at the end of his little speech, Mark Block takes a drag off of a cigarette and looks right at the camera as he exhales a cancer cloud. I'm supposed to listen to Mark Block's ideas about who should be president? Look, I'm a smoker, but nothing quite screams "bad decision" more than lighting up a cigarette. At least most smokers do not get lung cancer, but if Herman is president, we're all screwed. Cain should come with a warning from the Surgeon General. "Warning: Herman Cain could be hazardous for your health. And he's definitely bad for your healthcare." The worst part of this cigarette-smoking Herman Cain ad is that, if it works, you know Mitt Romney is going to come out with a campaign ad where he pops in a big plug of chewing tobacco.
Glenn Beck said that this weekend while he was out on the streets of Manhattan near an Occupy Wall Street protest "a couple of guys" behind him were talking about "quote, shooting Benjamin Netanyahu in the f-ing head." Gee, why do I never get to overhear that kind of wild stuff? I guess because I'm not Glenn Beck. Somehow Glenn Beck manages to overhear things that confirm his most basic delusions. Here's some advice, Glenn—next time you hear people talking like that, make sure the voices aren't coming from inside your head.

I know it was a head scratcher of many fans why Harrison didn't play more. What a strong, strong performance when one was needed the most.

No surprise to me about Damarcus. I watched him play in high school and sat by
him in church. He is not only going to be a great basketball player for BYU but
is a fine young man. Look for big things from him both on and off the floor.

Fetchin' about time. This was the best coaching move by Rose in the past two months. Sitting Carlino and playing Harrison most of the second half was a major factor in BYU winning this game.

Loved how Harrison played, but much of the credit for this win also goes to
Cusick, who wasn't rattled at all by the pressure the way Carlino was.
Let's see on Thursday whether Coach Rose has learned anything.

I loved Harrison's play coming off the bench! But I agree with others that Cusick is the unsung hero of the game. He didn't score a bucket, but his ability to control to ball and get it to those who can score was critical to the comeback.

Not playing Harrison more this season is the only criticism I have of Dave Rose's coaching this season. Abuou and Zylstra have been erratic and unreliable all season long and Harrison should have been coming off the bench regularly to replace one of them in the many games where they were not producing. Zylstra in particular has been a liability on both ends of the court, while Abuou at least contributed on defense and on the boards. Rose should have been giving Harrison some of those minutes if for no other reason then to let him develop and grow. I have heard rumors that Harrison has been very unhappy and is considering a transfer and if that happens I will consider a big mark against Dave Rose as a head coach. Harrison has tremendous potential as we saw last night and Rose should be taking every opportunity he can get to develop him. Here is hoping that Harrison returns next year and gets the lion share of Abuou's minutes (unless he decided to serve a mission).

I agree that Cusick should get plenty of minutes on Thursday but I dont think Carlino should lose the start. That would only do more damage to his confidence and Carlino is the future of the program at the point. We have to remember that he is a freshman and this was his first time playing in the big dance. We also have to remember that Jimmer struggled against pressure defense as a freshman and sophomore. I am not saying Carlino will be like Jimmer but I do think he will get much better with experience. That being said, Cusick was the difference in being able to mount a comeback against Iona. He was able to break the press and get the ball down the court so they could get the ball in to Davies and Hartsock. Without Cusick Davies and Hartsock would not have been able to score as many baskets. Cusick should get plenty of playing time on Thursday regardless of whether or not he starts.

Representblue: I agree that Carlino is the future and that he needs to continue to get plenty of minutes, but like Zystra and Abouo he's been very erratic in his play. In the biggest games, he has not handled the ball well and made some very poor decisions -- easily attributable to being a freshman. But in the big dance, the cougs can't afford those mistakes. With 8 assists and only 1 turnover, Cusick earned some playing time too

[Gift] Ambers by NinjaxioWatch
©2014-2016 Ninjaxio
Expect the unexpected. ;D
I felt the need to draw LegendShadowX's character, Ambers. Hopefully this makes up for my inability to draw his main OC properly. xD
Anyway I'm trying a different style with this one. On paper the face looked kinda Scott Pilgrim-esque, but for the most part proportions stem from human proportions.
Also, I realize I totally effed up on her weight, alright? She's supposed to be a bit healthier than most people, and I tried to show that but I'm not too good at fluffies ;_;
I tried to make her thighs a bit thicker but I would have had to readjust the body a bit. GAH KEEPING PROPORTIONS IS HARD
Ambers is kinda scarce on references, so I had to look at the only two things he had on her and judge from there. I had to take some liberties with the design, but for the most part I like how it turned out. Honestly I'm not sure if her eyes are actually blue, but as the rest of her outfit is blue (including the endy bit of her tail), I figured a bit more BLOO wouldn't hurt. I think it turned out pretty cute
Anyway, here you go, Shadow, and the rest of DA. I bet it ALLLL makes sense now.

|Wireless Services
|McLean, VA, United States (Corporate headquarters)
Key people
|Daniel Neal, CEO & Founder, Ben Weintraub, COO & Founder
|Wireless communication using CDMA
|"The smart phone for kids" "Bridging the Digital Divide in Education"
|http://www.kajeet.com/, http://www.kajeet.net/
Kajeet is a wireless provider operating on the Verizon and Sprint LTE wireless networks. The company serves two distinct, yet parallel, markets: off-campus wireless broadband for school districts and mobile phones & service for kids. The highlights of the service includes cloud-based management tools, CIPA-compliant filtering, mobile device controls, data-usage controls, time-of-day controls, contract-free plans, and the option of GPS location services.
Kajeet was founded by three fathers who wanted to figure out how mobile technology, kids, and parents could work best together and provide a safe mobile experience. The company name, "Kajeet," was derived as an anagram from the names of the founders' children. Two of the original founders still guide the company today: Ben Weintraub, COO, and Daniel Neal, CEO. Kajeet's service was designed around providing safety-conscious families affordable cell phones and prepaid plans(starting 4.99) for their teens, tweens, and young children. In more recent years, Kajeet has taken its patented mobile management technology and provides off-campus, mobile connectivity service to school districts.
Kajeet was mentioned in a Time Magazine online article[1] and in the print edition.[2] In both, the author Wendy Cole recounted her daughter's experience during Kajeet beta testing.
Education Broadband[edit]
Kajeet began offering off-campus mobile broadband service to schools and districts in 2012 and Education Broadband service in 2014. According to multiple sources, on average, one-third of U.S. students do not have adequate Internet access when they leave school. As more and more districts and schools incorporate technology into their curriculum and prepare for state-mandated testing (1-to-1, BYOD, Blended Learning), students are required to work on assignments outside the classroom. A large number of disadvantaged students are finding themselves caught in a widening "digital divide" struggling to keep up with their more affluent peers. According to the Kajeet website, the company provides a "safe, affordable, mobile broadband solution called Education Broadband™ that connects economically disadvantaged students to the Internet outside of school." The Education Broadband solution, includes a portable Kajeet SmartSpot® and patented filtering and controls that enables school districts to provide CIPA-compliant, education-only filtered Internet access to keeps students focused on school work without worry of data abuse.
Kid-Safe Service[edit]
Kajeet's service considers the safety of its users in many facets. Mobile downloadable content, such as wallpapers, ring tones, and games are screened to ensure that they are child appropriate. The free parental controls are accessible by parents logging in to their accounts. They are organized into five different managers.
The Feature Manager allows parents to determine whether their child's phone can use certain features. Parents can disable the use of picture messaging, to prevent problematic issues such as sexting. Downloadable content can be turned off, to prevent users from purchasing ring tones and games without permission. Mobile web access can be granted or denied, as well as specific sites, such as those that are not free to access, or social media websites. Feature manager can also allow child access to the GPS location services, in the event that they should lose their phone.
The Time Manager allows account holders to control when a Kajeet phone can and cannot be used; for example, the phone can be scheduled to not make or receive calls during school hours. These restrictions can be set up in minimum 30 min blocks, any times and days of the week.
The Contact Manager provides the ability to create black and white lists for numbers that parents do and do not want coming in or going out on their child's phone. This contact manager also allows the phone to reach certain numbers at all times, even during scheduled "off" times, for cases of emergency. Kajeet phones are also allowed to call 911 and Kajeet customer care at any time, free of charge. In addition, all 1-900 numbers are always blocked.
The Wallet Manager gives parents the opportunity to add dollars to their child's account, whether it is incorporated as a reward system for good behavior, allowing the child to purchase games and ring tones, or as a tool to teach responsibility. This feature allows parents to add money to their child's account on either a recurring or single time basis.
The GPS Phone Locator makes use of Kajeet's location-based service, which can be activated at any time by the parent, at a low monthly cost. The GPS locator is one of the more alluring parental feature, as it has proven useful to many families in the cases of children skipping school, losing their phones, having their purses stolen, or even going somewhere forbidden.
Parenting Awards[edit]
Kajeet has won several parenting awards for its unique cell phone service. This list of awards includes:
- Parent Tested, Parent Approved Media Inc., Seal of Approval - 2008[3]
- National Parenting Publication Awards, Honors Award Winner - 2009[4]
- iParenting Media, Excellence Award - 2009[5]
- Mom's Choice Awards, Gold in Gear and Accessories - 2010[6]
- On March 19, 2007, Kajeet launched a presence in Whyville, the virtual world for kids, sponsoring a "Chat Factory" in the Whyville Mall. In May 2007, the kajeet-Whyville relationship was presented as a case study in online marketing to kids at the Kid Power 2007 conference in Orlando, Florida.

Regatta Fashion Week 2011: Reminiscing
I have recently started catching up on my blog and I saw this old post that I drafted a bazillion ages ago. It would've been senseless for me to just chuck it out to my trash bin plus I took great photos (debatable) so I might as well post them.
A perfect example of a great photo…
I am on the second row to see all the fashion action…with a glass of champagne in my hands, of course.
The theme of the show is a boat deck as you can see in the first photo. Very cool and quite frankly, I think this is my go-to style whenever I am feeling casual. Solid colours, clean and crisp. Very nice!!!
More photos after the jump…
My favourite were ladies' shoes. Not that I would wear them but if you notice, they are boat shoes on a wedge.
I lurved the stripes, shirt and coats. All basics that I can easily mix and match.
I know that it has been over a year since this happened but it was because of this show that I am frequenting Regatta and I have been a satisfied, returning customer to date.
Thanks, Regatta.

Choose Between Two Options
- $10 for $20 worth of breakfast, lunch, or dinner for a party of two

Burgers ($8.99), salads ($9.99-$10.99) and spinach or chicken enchiladas ($9.99) complement more upscale entrees such as the herb-crusted ahi tuna ($17.99) and the pepper-rubbed Black Angus tenderloin ($21.99).

Edloe St. Café & Catering
In Edloe St. Café & Catering's kitchen, staffers grind fresh burger patties and concoct dishes from owner E.I. Thomas's farmer's market finds. The eatery specializes in fresh, local food inspired by cultures on either side of the Mexican border; the kitchen whips up jumbo lump crab cakes and leafy Cobb salads just as deftly as they craft Southern-fried fish tacos and pile plates with chicken tamales. Upscale options such as Black Angus tenderloin are also available and lend an extra touch of superiority by the alumnus of Johnson & Wales College of Culinary Arts who helms the kitchen.
Despite the steak on the menu, the café's atmosphere is unpretentious. Patrons order from a menu handwritten on hanging chalkboards, and eat at simple wooden tables or retire to the outdoor patio for fresh air and a chance to spellcheck any recent skywriting. For large functions, hosts can also turn to the kitchen for buffet-style catering spreads, which offer everything from breakfast tacos to boxed lunches.
94% of 477 customers recommend
"Great place , awesome food !"
"Great atmosphere! Delicious, affordable food! Great customer service. Will definitely go back. Thanks to Groupon offer...great discovery."

Michael J. Tutera has been identified as the this morning's homicide victim in a gated community in
the 5300 block of Sunset Place.
Police say they are following up "some good leads" in the death of 49-year-old Tutera. If you have any information about this man's death, call
the TIPS Hotline 816-474-8477.
Tutera's body was discovered around 1 a.m.

was suing his mother, brother and sister, claiming the "committed
fraud, breached their fiduciary duties and intentionally misrepresented
the value of the bank to encourage Tutera to sell his ownership stake"
in Central Bank of Kansas City. According to Case Net, a motion hearing had been scheduled for July 7.
The Pitch's Charles Ferruzza snapped photos of the scene
on Sunset Place earlier today.

I frakkin' had to +1 shade... thank you for starting this thread.
I frakkin' had to +1 shade... thank you for starting this thread.
I generally can't over 3 hours due to the memory leak making the game unplayable if I play normally (and do multiple questS)
but I just farm one quest for a very long time (to avoid loading more assets), Yea I can stay in pretty much all day with mouse wheel working fine, long as I never use a bag.
It's just the memory leak makes the bug far more likely to happen upon opening a bag, as it does with many lag related bugs.
Bug template! QA is here for you.
How random DD is
how to handle this random, anywhere
Sarlona: Seikojin, Toy
I have experienced this many times as Shade describes. Usually restart the game to get rid of it. Very annoying.
Please fix it.
and it's not only annoying, it can be downright terrible and ruin certain quests where I need to zoom in or out rather than be plastered to my character's rear.
Fixing this would really be nice. Thanks for the comprehensive summary, Shade.
Character Compendium
Sarlona*Eternal Wrath
This is one of the few things, along with zoning between certain quests and explorer areas(due to memory leak or whatever that particular bug is), that FORCES me to go through the process of shutting down and restarting DDO.
For whatever reason, my fraps only recorded the back buffer.
However, I have narrowed it down to one or two steps.
1. Open your bag, scroll in the bag.
2. Double click any item to remove it from your bag.
Persists across all characters until you log out of the game.
Bug submitted as stated above.

It used to annoy me, but then I learned how to use '7' and '9' on the numpad. Haven't really cared about it since.
Distributed - Currently on life 80.
That said, there are workarounds for all kinds of things; but like the other forum thread that just started this morning, I am tired of having to remember all the workarounds for game play, for building characters around bugs, for avoiding getting stuck in the environment, for adjusting to the failures to cast or execute commands on the action bar, etc. Seems like the game's now one big workaround.
This has led to some sensitivity - I called it MMO PTSD the other day.

Thank you for the fantastic Steps To Reproduce! I really appreciate your help! I have added this information to our bug.
1. Create 32 characters on one account (VIP or with Shared Bank).
2. Log into each character, open bank, close bank, log out.
3. Mouse wheel will break at some point (for me, usually after 12-15 character log in/log outs.)

+1 to Shade, I feel so... unclean.
I've experienced this very annoying bug many times and had to restart the client, but never tracked it down to the capturing of the scroll wheel by a container object. Good job to you and your minions for figuring this out and documenting how to reproduce it.

Oh thank god this is finally getting addressed.
I have to admit it never occurred to me that the problem was with the bags - the trend I noticed was that it seemed to happen anytime I interacted with crafting ingredients to any great degree.
Which naturally means, you know, using the bags a lot
Jumping on the bandwagon of, "This happens a fair bit to me, but I'd never paid enough attention to figure out why."
Thanks Shade.

I experience this often after transfering some stuff from my ingredient bag to the shared bank or vice versa and then switching to another character. Usually only after two or three character switches, but somethings it takes only one.
Interestingly, I also experience a massive amount of lag and stuck time IRL when my fiancee opens her bag... Unfortunately, I do not believe that issue will ever be resolved.
This issue is way beyond its expiration date. It's extremely annoying to have to restart my game every time this happens. Some serious and fast attention to this issue would be greatly appreciated.
This bug affects me heavily as I use a single hotbar setup with mousewheel scrolling, so it's not something I can just put up with for a while. I had the cause narrowed down to something happening in the crafting hall but didn't spot the bag link - it makes perfect sense, I'll test that out tonight.
My pointer hardware is a Logitech wireless trackball. At least once I was able to fix the problem by unplugging the wireless USB transmitter and re-inserting it, but this solution proved unreliable and I now restart the client as a matter of course.
Do Mac or Linux users experience this issue?

Rolling Stone has an excellent, illuminating article out today on the federal bailout Mitt Romney obtained when he supposedly "rescued" Bain & Co.
According to documents obtained by Rolling Stone, Mitt Romney screwed taxpayers out of at least $10 million right after paying generous bonuses to executives at Bain & Co., leaving the company in debt and on the verge of insolvency.
In March 1992, according to the FDIC documents, Romney approached the banks and played the bonus card. Allow Bain to pay off its debt at a deep discount, he demanded – just 35 cents on the dollar. Otherwise, the "majority" of the firm's "excess cash" would "be available for the bonus pool to its officers at a vice president level and above."
The next month, when the banks balked at the deal, Romney decided to prove he wasn't bluffing. "As the bank group did not accept the proposal from Bain," the records show, "Bain's senior management has decided to go forth with the distribution of bonuses." (Bain's lawyers redacted the amount of the executive payouts, and the Romney campaign refused to comment on whether Romney himself received a bonus.)
Romney's decision to place executive compensation over fiscal responsibility immediately put Bain on the ropes. By that July, FDIC analysts reported, Bain had so little money left that "the company will actually run out of cash and default on the existing debt structure" as early as 1995. If that happened, Bain employees and American consumers would take the hit – an alternative that analysts considered "catastrophic."
But Romney didn't dole out all of Bain's cash as bonuses right away. According to a record from May 1992, he set aside some of the money to put one last squeeze on the firm's creditors. Romney now demanded that the banks and the government agree to a deal that was even less favorable than the last – to retire Bain's debts "at a price up to but not exceeding 30 cents on the dollar."
The FDIC considered finding a buyer to take over its loans to Bain, but analysts concluded that "Bain has no value as a going concern." And the government wasn't likely to get much out of Bain if it allowed the firm to go bankrupt: The loan agreement engineered by Romney had left the FDIC "virtually unsecured" on the $30.6 million it was owed by Bain. "Once bonuses are paid," the analysts warned, "all members of the bank group believe this company will dissolve during 1993."
With the help of cronies at the FDIC, some of whom were former Bain employees or proteges of his father and former presidential candidate, George Romney, the government decided to cut its losses before they grew bigger. And according to Rolling Stone, the government could have recouped only $3 million rather than $14 million if the firm went into bankruptcy.
Mitt Romney swindled the goverment. He swindled the taxpayers. And he's hoodwinked the media with the idea that he's "mister competence." If by competence you mean competent at selling his own grandmother to make up a buck, with such dishonor and moral contempt he would make Voldemort blush, then perhaps that's fair.
Are you listening, Republicans? Are you listening, so-called fiscal conservatives? Romney took a federal bailout and used debt as the leverage he needed to secure the bailout. Romney paid himself and his fellow executives with debt that YOU ended up paying for. Do you care? Or is it okay, because success, liberty, exceptionalism, etc etc.
Read the full article here, then watch Romney speak about his great success tonight.

Guchi Learns A Lesson
People want what they cannot have, but eventually they might get mad.
Tickets for Guchi's Midnight Ramen's upcoming pop-up go on sale this Friday, but things will be a bit different this time around. Responding to backlash from customers who couldn't get tickets to their last sold-out dinner, for which the number of seats went unadvertised, GMR has opted to specify that there's room for 30 people at their latest event. This pop-up is a two-night affair, happening on February 26 and 27, at No. 9 Park. Sixty seats; two nights only. Odds aren't great, but at least now we know that they're not great. Tickets go on sale at 1 p.m. on Friday, so consider yourself warned. [GuchiRamenNight/Twitter, Earlier]

Nice Poster!
I really like this. But I wanna know why you're leaving spider-man out of this.
are you trolling me?.. -_-
I am not trolling.
then why did you say Spiderman in the Avengers when you and everybody knows that spiderman isn't in the avengers and never will be -.-
He is in one of the avenger comics. That is why.
1. Spiderman isn't in the Avengers comics.
im getting annoyed with "why isn't spiderman or wolverine in avengers?" when everybody in the world should know by now because its the same answer every year .-.
2. He's in the New Avengers from the 2005 comics. He's not the original members like Iron Man, Thor, Hulk, Falcon, Black Panther, Ant man, Wasp, Captain America, etc.
3. the comic book universe and the movie universe are complete different. The movies use the comics as a source material. They aren't 100% accurate or true from the comics. Look at the comics from the comics to the big screen. Or the story line. Like Mandran in Iron Man 3. Loki's origin in Thor. Silver Samari in The Wolverine. Bucky in Captain America: First Avenger.
4. Spiderman and The Avengers are owned by different movie companies. The Avengers is owned By Disney. Spiderman is owned By Sony/Columbia Pictures,. So they will never be in a movie together. As long as Sony owns the rights to use Spiderman in their movies.
im getting annoyed with "why isn't spiderman or wolverine in avengers?" when everybody in the world should know by now because its the same answer every year .-.
oh yeah I love your artwork love what u did with Wanda in the back even-though I don't know her actress.
Well hes in a branch of the avengers called the new avengers along with wolverine but that team disassembled because of Luke Cage and his wife leaving. he is also now dead and replaced by doc ock and was fired from the avengers because of his erratic and dark behavior.
I was about to bring up the legal issues, but I read the rest of your comment first.
