I'm so excited to see what part #Thunderbolts Bob plays out in the MCU, but specifically which side he ends up on in Avengers: Doomsday https://t.co/W6YGUxFzgY

I was too busy to announce it last week, but I've moved over to the good ship @slashfilm. To get things going they bravely let me write about #GladiatorII and the inescapable issue that the sequel suffers. https://t.co/G8lQPhsO9s
