From what I understand, Quicksilver/Scarlet Witch are under some sort of strange rights agreement where they can both use them in their respective movies.  However, Marvel can't currently mention anything about them being mutants, having Magneto for a father, etc.  It will be interesting to see if Whedon still uses them going forward, or how different they will be.  Fox does seem like the type to just include Quicksilver to be a pain in Disney/Marvel's rear though.  I know that they tried to work out a deal to have Wolverine/Hugh Jackman cameo in the Cap war sequences in Captain America, but Fox said no.

Its funny, I still check the SW section too, even though I know there is absolutely nothing out to check for really (that goes for most lines lately actually).  I'm really wondering about the future of Star Wars action figures lately, it has been such a strange year.  I don't think I've spent a dime on SW in 2013, and that hasn't happened since I first got on this train during the later POTF2 years.  Also, it is starting to seem concerning that now etailers have preorders up for these waves yet, although I guess the 6" and Movie Heroes lines aren't available yet either so who knows.  I just wonder if the 3 3/4" Black Series stuff is going to continue much longer, or if we'll see a switch to 6" "collector figures" and lower articulation stuff across the board in 3 3/4" scale.  Now, with news of a new cartoon, I wonder if we'll see changes because of that too.  I hope this time around, they just stick to one "style" for the line.  It is definitely a strange time to be a SW collector these days.

I have four kids, so one of the Disney channels (Disney, Disney Junior, Disney XD) is usually on at some point during the day, especially on the weekends.   

Just one kid here, but the same story.  We've always got one of the Disney channels on throughout the day (not to mention Nick, CN and Boomerang).  I've actually watched Disney XD before anyways, due to them having the Marvel cartoons the past few years.  As far as the new 'toon, I'm pretty excited for it.  I did enjoy CW, but honestly, the more OT time period is more appealing to me overall.  Like Jesse said, I'd be down for seeing all of the storylines he mentioned and just seeing the development of the Rebellion in general.  Sounds like it will be CG, but they are sort of basing things off of the McQuarrie style, so I'm not sure if will look just like CW.  Either way, I'm sure it will look good.  I'm a little surprised, I kind of expected them to have the toon be set after ROTJ, to bridge the gap a bit to the new movie(s).

I finally broke down and picked up the Mines of Moria set this week.  My daughter and I built the first "half" today, and it has been fun.  My hope was to eventually at least get the Fellowship in minifig form, and now to do that I'd need to pick up the Weathertop set to get Aragorn and Merry (and I guess Frodo and Sam are technically ROTK versions).  It is tough to not want to go all in with these really though - LEGO has slowly been sucking me in the past couple years between SW, Marvel, and LOTR/Hobbit.  Plus, a Harry Potter set for my daughter - I really wish I would have gotten more of those when they were available.  We love building all these together.  Looking forward to the new sets as well.

Although I agree that it hasn't been the same since Steve Carrell left, but I'm still kind of sad it is ending.  We will definitely be tuning in tonight, and I hope it has a great send off.  I agree, it is probably time for it to go, but it is always a little sad when one of your all time favorites closes shop.  Like Scott said, I thought this season was actually a little better - and probably the best of the post-Michael seasons.  Overall, one of my all time favorite shows.  It was one of those that my wife and I have an extra attachment to because we tuned in from the very first airing of the first episode - before all the hype began after it.  Also the fact that we were working in an Office (not all that different) at the time, it was just perfect.  Anyways, one of my all time favorite shows, and although it is probably time, I'm still a little sad about it.

It is also a little depressing as a sitcom fan, that we've been losing so much over the past few years, particularly favorites of mine.  Scrubs a couple years ago, now the Office and 30 Rock, things are getting sort of slim.  Big fan of Parks and Rec (which is returning), as well as Modern Family and the Big Bang Theory but it seems to drop off a bit after that.  We also watch Community, which is supposed to be back maybe mid-season next year.  We've always watched How I Met Your Mother, but that is another show that I think should have wrapped things up a couple seasons ago.  Anyways, back on topic, looking forward to tonight's big finale and retrospective.  We've been going through and watching the past seasons on DVD the past few weeks - so much funny .

I got a shipping notice for the second wave of Iron Man Legends from BBTS, which includes the Mark 42, Iron Patriot, and Ultron.  Sounds like they are starting to hit retail now as well.

Saw it this afternoon, and really, really liked it as well.  Not sure if I'd put it quite on par with the first one, at least for me, but very close.  Lots of good character stuff going on, and some great action sequences as well.  I'm sure many are/will be upset with the "twist" in the movie, and I can understand that, but it seemed to work within the context of the movie.  It really did have a sense of finality to me a bit as well, the ending seemed to be wrapping up the trilogy pretty well while still leaving the door open a crack as well.

As far as I have read/heard, Downey's Marvel contract was up with this movie.  There has been a lot of insinuation that negotiations are in process, at least for Avengers 2, and we'll see beyond that.  I know it has been said of a lot of characters, but I really have trouble seeing anyone else play Iron Man.  To me, RDJ is Iron Man/Tony Stark, and I really hope he at least comes back for Avengers 2 (and 3?).  If they decide to get the Iron Man franchise a rest right now, I guess I could see from the standpoint of him wanting to do something else for a bit.  We will see.  Sounds like this movie will be making boatloads of money, so I'm sure they'll want to make more.

As a side note, if anyone has picked up this week's Entertainment Weekly (with Tony/Pepper on the front) there is a lot of info from Kevin Feige as to the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.  Some good info in there including Phase 2 starting with Iron Man 3, then continuing with Thor 2, Cap 2, and Guardians of the Galaxy (as well as the SHIELD TV show), and Ant Man kicking of Phase 3.  There is mention of Doctor Strange possibly being a part of that next stage, and they also note that Daredevil, Punisher, Ghost Rider, and Blade have all reverted back to Marvel as well (as far as rights go).
