X-Men: Days of Future Past: Why Fox Desperately Needs it to Succeed | |
I agree with Nilson Thomas Carroll’s comment about Inferno in season 4 of Mad Men. I will have to check out Confessions of an Advertising Man. This article reminded me of the extensive reading list that accompanied Lost. | The Literature of Mad Men |
This article reminds me of the extensive reading list that accompanied Lost. I definitely will look into obtaining a copy of Confessions of An Advertising Man. | The Literature of Mad Men |

I remember only seeing bits and pieces of Moral Orel before it was canceled. The satiric nature of the show seemed like it was up my alley, but I never really followed it. I enjoyed your analysis and I will try and find time to sit down and actually watch the series. I liked your point that “…religious zealotry is often met with respect, even reverence until it betrays social norms.” Unfortunately, religious extremism/fundamentalism isn’t so different from the “mainstream” as people often think. | Moral Orel: Repression in Moralton |
Very well-written article. But I agree with some of the above comments that Wolverine has become a bit overplayed, since he’s the star of every X-Men film and has two (and one forthcoming) standalone films of his own. I am not a fan of Bryan Singer’s work, particularly. I wish FOX had rebooted the franchise with First Class instead of doing a “pre-boot,” or whatever it is they called it. There are way too many continuity errors as is. But they’ll no doubt try to fix it within DoFP. I would like to see the studio rights revert back to Marvel, like Daredevil and Punisher have done.
