@mookie I was once demanded, against my recommendation, to do a major internal deployment the day before I left to visit my folks for the holidays. It was a fun and festive Christmas trying to do a rollback over VPN via my folks DSL.I no longer work there... but the guy who made the demand was gone first.

Netflix can cancel all their Marvel shows if they feel the need, but if they don't make Vincent D'Onofrio's Kingpin the villain in the next Spider-Man movie, they're leaving money on the table.

The problem with Creed 2:Rocky Balboa and Creed allowed us, if we chose, to largely pretend that Rockies 3 - 5 didn't really happen. Sure, Creed reminds us Rocky faught Apollo at some point, but we could pretend maybe he didn't fight The Hulkster.By making Drago's son the antagonist, we are forced to acknowledge the montage-laden, Paulie robot fetishizing, lesser Survivor song filled, rancid, spoiled squishy center of the Rocky saga, where the scripts must be read between the lines of coke.

Watching Daredevil season 3 on Netflix and Googling at the same time because the whole Kingpin / Bullseye seduction dance to make Bullseye Kingpin's head enforcer is damn close to the Michael Corleone / Al Niri dance in the original Puzo novel...Turns out Stan Lee invented Kingpin two years before The Godfather novel was released.So yeah, these TV people are totally lifting from Godfather, but Stan Lee? Was a motherfucking ORIGINAL.
