No Duh: ‘Spider-Man’ flick will star Peter Parker, according to Kevin Feige
I am one of those folk who really wanted Miles Morales to join the MCU, now that Marvel has joint (wink, wink) custody of Spider-Man once again. But yeah, I never held my breath.

‘Captain Marvel’ movie getting script from ‘Guardians’ writer, ‘Inside Out’ writer too
Woah. None other than Nicole Perlman is being eyed as (one) of the writers for Captain Marvel. Perlman is credited with providing a seminal first draft for Guardians of the Galaxy, bringing a lot of what we loved in the final product with her effort. This is dope++
Monday Morning Commute: Sisyphus’ Favorite Balloon
Look at Matty Murdock. Holding a balloon. While he looks up to Hey-Zeus Cristos for guidance, he strikes me as a Sisyphean hero. His approach to life smacks of Rieux from The Plague. When Rieux is asked if he knows what it means to be a doctor during plague time he responds, “a never ending defeat.” Yet he dusts himself off, and carries on. Much like Matty. Much like all of us amidst the Pointless Expanse’s Grind. We are all Sisyphus. We must all hold balloons. And so to make this all fit into a dumb package: this is Monday Morning Commute. A list of the metaphorical balloons I shall be holding onto this week, begging them to lift me above the malaise.

Can Olivia Munn act? I’m not even trolling, I simply don’t know. I most aware of her through my inherent jealousy at her getting to date Aaron Rodgers (and I don’t). So like, thoughts? Can she?
Sofia Boutella (‘Kingsman’) getting significant ‘Star Trek 3’ role

Weekend Open Bar: The Demoncratic Oath!
This is Weekend Open Bar, and I have a confession to make: I am Brett Favre. Last week I firmly, firmly thought to myself, “I’m fucking done with Omega-Level.” Was seriously bumming. My brother doesn’t write any more, my favorite commenters don’t comment any more. Fuck you, Omega-Level. Fuck you. Any of the three people who come across the site may have thought the same thing. There were no new postings. Since I had, in fact, quit. But just like Brett Favre retiring/unretiring/retiring/unretiring, here I am. I just can’t quit.
