From what I saw it looks like he's starting out as a scamming, scheming lawyer creating scams for money. A far cry from where he was in Breaking Bad as an somewhat well heeled crooked lawyer and money launderer.

Well, it is supposed to be the character's prequel;  scams for money eventually leads to well heeled.  Just ask Minsky.  :yeah:

Witches of Eastwick is on.  LOL, saw that on a date in high school.

Any of you watch Better Call Saul last night? If so, what did you think?

It was a lot darker than I thought it would be, in tone.

I thought it was decent for a pilot that needs to set everything up which can bog things down.

I had to laugh at the cliffhanger, though, but I can't help but feel that this might turn out to be his "lucky" break. :P

I liked BCS.
Maybe because I think Bob Odenkirk is awesome. And under-rated. He's only had bit parts as far as I can tell. I remember him as someone's boss in HIMYM.

He had a good-sized part in Fargo.

Apparently Sony and Marvel have reached a deal that will allow Spiderman to appear in the new Captain America film (although they don't specify it, they only say it'll be a movie from the "Marvel Cinematuc Universe"). Marvel will also co-produce the next Spiderman stand alone film, slated for 2017.

QuoteUnder the deal, the new Spider-Man will first appear in a Marvel film from Marvel's Cinematic Universe (MCU). Sony Pictures will thereafter release the next installment of its $4 billion Spider-Man franchise, on July 28, 2017, in a film that will be co-produced by Kevin Feige and his expert team at Marvel and Amy Pascal, who oversaw the franchise launch for the studio 13 years ago. Together, they will collaborate on a new creative direction for the web slinger. Sony Pictures will continue to finance, distribute, own and have final creative control of the Spider-Man films.

Marvel and Sony Pictures are also exploring opportunities to integrate characters from the MCU into future Spider-Man films.

The new relationship follows a decade of speculation among fans about whether Spider-Man – who has always been an integral and important part of the larger Marvel Universe in the comic books – could become part of the Marvel Universe on the big screen. Spider-Man has more than 50 years of history in Marvel's world, and with this deal, fans will be able to experience Spider-Man taking his rightful place among other Super Heroes in the MCU.

Grey Fox

Excellent. Hopefully Feige will keep his word & no fucking origin story again.
Colonel Caliga is Awesome.

Yay, many more superhero movies

Not necesarily, it is already being reported that this will affect the movies that Sony intended to put out in the Spiderman universe. The Sinister Six movie, slated for 2016, is going to be at the very least delayed, while the Venom and Spider Woman spin off movies will never see the light of day.
