Dark Light

To all people who were expecting something other than a 90 minute Simpsons Episode:

What did you want? Waffles?

Went to see the Simpsons Movie. it is Good. The Simpsons suffers somewhat from Golden Age syndrome, that being it was always better when you started watching it, but – in my opinion – the best bits were Simpsons at its best, and the not-so-good bits were the better bits from the episodes you didn’t like much.

Also, it contains the best punchline to a cliché “How long can we keep objects in front of a naked person’s genitals” sequence in the world ever.

And also: Stay to the end.

Age of Ultron

There was a movie. It's... Um. Let's start with this: The following review contains spoilers for Age of Ultron. They start after the following paragraph, which is why you need to click the link to read the rest. Right, so my problem with AoU is that it's a comic book event series. Its purpose is to make people need to go and see it to wrap up the past and understand the future episodes. It's the exact kind of Age Of Secret War On Ultimate Earth cross-francise bullshit that generally kicks me off any super-hero comic series I've started to get into. Suddenly, in order to follow the arc of a character I need to buy twelve comics across nine series, five of which my local shop doesn't carry. The actual plot of the movie doesn't really maintain its own momentum.
