Man, the RIAA takedown did a lot of good – these guys are like geek rockstars now! The pirates have since moved the Bay’s hosting back to Sweden, where they’ve built technological bulwarks against another takedown, law-hardening the Bay’s network architecture with a system of redundant servers that spans three nations.

Joe Q may have told the crowds at San Diego that he was nervous about appearing on The Colbert Report, but he handled himself well, discussing Civil War and how the Marvel Universe reflects our reality.

In addition to talking about the X-Men flick, Jackman discusses his love scene with Rachel Weisz in “The Fountain,” and we’re treated to a surprisingly badass clip [...]
