Batgirl and The X-Files



I am really looking forward to seeing The X-Files in their upcoming return to television.  I remember hearing a lot about the show when it first aired, but having missed the first couple of seasons, I was hesitant to try and get into it.  Finally I picked up some recordings of the show and caught up quickly over the course of a month or so.  It was the first show that I really "binge watched", years before that became a common practice.

Steel Vs. Hawkeye



Hawkeye spent a lot of the first Avengers film under the thrall of Loki, so we did not to get to see much of the trademark character traits that have made him a fan favorite hero in the comics.  I am hoping that is addressed in the upcoming sequel.  I'd like to see him competing with Cap over leadership of the team and displaying his flirtatious ways with newcomer Scarlet Witch. Joss Whedon excels at writing interpersonal relationships, so I am confident some of the familiar Clint will come through in the film.

The Spectre and The Scarlet Witch



Elizabeth Olsen has been cast as The Scarlet Witch in Avengers: Age Of Ultron, and I don't really know what to make of that yet, as I have not seen any of her previous performances.  I know that she has received critical acclaim for films such as Martha Marcy May Marlene, so she shouldn't have a problem holding her own with Robert Downey Jr. and company.  I hope that she uses an appropriate accent for the character, it would seem odd to have Wanda Maximoff speaking with an American accent.  It will also be interesting to see how Joss Whedon deals with her hex powers.  It's always been a little confusing to me understanding exactly what the limits are in the comics.
