Kevin Feige is the madman/genius that made Marvel’s Cinematic Universe/Phase 1/Avengers franchise from the Marvel Comics to the theatrical screens. He provided his advice to Warner Bros regarding their efforts for a similar/parallel Justice League film series. “I’m sure they have smart people over there who have a plan and know what they’re doing. Man …

How do the physicists afford the apartment?
From the Facebook page of ComicsPriceGuide.com While the two physicists are smart enough to pay all of their bills on time and not with credit cards, Penny clearly has problems with money and does not pay her bills with the same regularity as Sheldon and Leonard. Her apartment, while in the same building, is not …

James Tucker replaces Bruce Timm as WB Animation Overlord
Comic Book Resources reports the story. It does not mention the cause. The article chronicles the start and finish of the DC Animated Universe, from Batman: The Animated Series to Justice League Unlimited. The article also does not fail to credit the other co-architects of that Batman cartoon. Timm’s last work in his former role …

I guess K-Mart killed a shark

The recent death of a 5-foot-long white-tipped shark during a Kmart commercial shoot in Van Nuys is currently under investigation by local authorities …

break 14 – Halftime before the Halftime show
I hate these CBS ads. UnderTheDome.com may be fun. I don’t care for this McDonald’s rerun. And look: a rerun of a local advertisement for Case Credit Union followed by a Michigan-tailored Ford advertisment rerun. The local advertisement for Medawar jewelers is tailored for the Super Bowl. I’m done with this. I will blog about …

next year I will just live tweet this stuff
For one thing I will have a larger built-in guarantee that someone will read it. Then all I have to do is go back and transcribe it to keep it. 140 characters is a fun bit. This is just a typing text. Wow.

break 12 is just a Lincoln MKZ advertisment
I love Lincoln advertisements and I want one of their cars but this MKZ ad uncharacteristically does not thrill me.

A commercial with the classic cliche of old people acting young. it is a Taco Bell commercial with an American pop song sang with Spanish lyrics. Skechers ads are always a fair combination of flashy, stylish, and corny. An NFL recap bit brought to us by the tire folk at Bridgestone. I might watch Elementary …

A Coca-Cola advertisement featuring a desert race and a vote at http://cokechase.com is BRILLIANT. A 15th anniversary Jarod commercial for Subway? Gah.

STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS has a trailer. Somehow I wish I had not seen this advertisement as it spoils…. and it does not seem to imply Boldly Going Where No Man Has Gone Before. The Rock chases milk in a go Milk ad that is hilarious. The following Hyundai ad doesn’t amuse as much. But …

A Bud Light coommercial revolves around New Orleans because the Suepr Bowl is now in the SuperDome this year, in New Orleans. Well, there is also the magic of the voodoo. It is the culmination of the “It’s Only Weird If It Doesn’t Work” ad campaign and it is brilliant. Following that is the BigDadd.co …

Hyundai – come back when you have a team. And apparently the small kid rides with his mom having adventures gathering a bunch of other small kids for a pick-up football game. Forgettable. The obligatory GoDaddy.com ad has Bar Raefeli and one of the extras from Chuck. Nice touch. The obligatory Doritos ad stars a …

Beautiful legs start out a beer commercial for Budweiser Black Crown. I have seen ads for it in the Mimami airport but never on TV until now. The M&M’s commercial is good! “I will do anything for love” is nice. An Audi car ad is pretty good… a stag prom night ends in a happy …

break, before coin toss, after National Anthem
World War Z. It stars Brad Pitt. It’s derivative advertisement, what with the trailer’s score and all. Then we have a Century21 ad involving choking. It is rather droll. The McDonald’s commercial annoys me. If I don’t remember the ad well enough to type about it, let that say enough.
