This week is terrible. Have a linkspam
Aug. 12th, 2014 09:55 pm* In the great Batman V Superman vs. Captain America showdown of 2016, it looks like DC/Warner Bros. blinked first, as predicted. And then announced nine new release dates for unnamed movies through 2020 unless Marvel decides to claim them.
* Chris Pratt gives a tour of Peter Quill's spaceship, which looks like a pretty cool set. Plus, his TV bosses knew he'd be a star long before he landed Star-Lord.
* Glenn Close talks about her Guardians of the Galaxy appearance. I would kind of love it if she became like an intergalactic Nick Fury for this side of the MCU.
* Vin Diesel talks about the process of recording Groot's voice and getting across what Groot was really trying to say.
* The sequel to Guardians of the Galaxy will change the identity of Peter's father. I know nothing about his father from the comics, so I'm not bothered by this.
* It's not looking good for the female characters of Ant-Man.
* Casting spoiler for next season of Agents of SHIELD.
* I know even less about The Inhumans comics than I knew about Guardians of the Galaxy, but I hope they'll include a few female superheroes in the lineup for the movie Marvel is apparently making.
* James Corden is maybe taking over for Craig Ferguson as host of The Late Late Show.
* Really interesting profile of Weeds and Orange is the New Black creator, Jenji Kohan.
* Some info about the upcoming season of Doctor Who and Peter Capaldi's Doctor.
* First trailer for The Theory of Everything, starring Eddie Redmayne as Stephen Hawking.
* Veronica Mars goes mind-bendingly meta with its new webseries, Play It Again, Dick.
* Very brief teaser for Better Call Saul tells us what we already know: Saul is a lawyer, and thinks other people should hire him. (Seriously, that could just be a cut line from Breaking Bad, for all the context we're given.)
* Aaron Tveit is single and "looking to find a very nice girl." OUTTA MY WAY BITCHES. (For real, though, you never hear actors admit that. Either they're dating someone or they're "perfectly happy being single" or they just refuse to talk about it. No one's ever like, "Yeah, I'm not in a relationship but I want to be.")
