Okay "cold on a cob" is one of the funniest things I've read in a while.

Never heard of bumbershoot, but a paeasol is used to keep the sun off you, where as an umbrella (or brollyQuote:Do the Brits still use bumbershoot or parasol for umbrella? 
) is used to keep the rain off you.

Megatron does realize he's riding not just any jet, but Starscream, who will probably turn over and leave him to rust in deep space while he goes off and takes over the Decepticons again, right?

I liked Silent Hill. Looking forward to this, especially if everyone is returning.

I have only seen the complete series set available from the SHOUT! website.
I'm hoping for a PAL release, if not I'll just have to import. -
Quote:If magic were real we'd re-write the laws of physics to incorporate it.Originally Posted by Daemodand
Technology no matter how advanced must obey the laws of physics. Magic, were it real, would be capable of breaking the laws of physics.
"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."
Conversely; "any sufficiently rigorously defined magic is indistinguishable from technology"
Because the comics are always toying with this idea and this might in fact be the case depending on what retcon we are currently in. Additionally, this is it's own continuity, so it can pull from any Marvel continuity it wishes, such as Ultimate, or in this case, Earth X.Quote:Originally Posted by Fritzdog
Second: How can you be cool with that?
This isn't a new idea to people who follow comics. -
Hmmm, usually that happens when a background process is trying to take priority for some reason.
Check to see that you don't have any programs running in the background that could be causing this, updaters, such as apple's or adobe's can do this. -
Last I heard he repressed the symbiote and died of cancer.
Edit: My bad, he's back and now known as "Anti-Venom" and has other powers and stuff. -

Why is Flash Thompson the new Venom?

Quote:Ah. Still cool though!Originally Posted by Innovator
They blackend and then CGI'd out his nose. It was revealed how they were doing it during a visit to the set by Moriarty of Aint It Cool.

You people have no sense of humour.
Yes, it's funny.

Quote:Or the mask bit actually extends from the face somewhat so they can hide it.Originally Posted by Pouncer
It's either CGI or he had his nose removed.

Yup, that looks like Red Skull.

Wait, is this a reboot?Quote:Sound more like they plan on continuing the story, rather than erasing it.
"We recognize the responsibility we have to do justice to the memory of the original with any prequel or sequel we produce."
Personally, I'd love to see more stories within Blade Runner's world. Dark Cyperpunk Dystopia, hell yes! A reboot would suck, but a sequel would be cool. -
Quote:The thing is, he doesn't "attack" people, he tries to get them to leave. He doesn't just attack someone unannounced. Additionally, he DOES call Police, he doesn't just leave people tied up then clear off.Originally Posted by Lastjustice
I have no problem with the notion of hey I can make a difference. I'm all for doing the less glorious stuff that makes a real difference in the long run. Running around attacking people isn't it. We have cops in real life, and they re not remotely as useless as the ones in fiction.Aiding them can do far more good than being a lone wolf.(such as calling them or taking pictures of criminals.forming a neighborhood watch...I know boring stuff that doesn't involve violence.) There's smart ways of fighting crime and operating perfectly with in the rules. This isn't it.
It's all fine and well saying "call the police and take pictures" but if you're watching someone get beaten up, the 5-20 minutes it takes between the call and the police arriving could literally mean life or death. -
While he's certainly putting himself in danger, if more people took an interest in helping others maybe he wouldn't have too.
The fact is, people get hurt and killed, and everyone from all sides is just saying "Don't do anything, or you'll get hurt too." It's nice to see someone who'd rather get hurt themselves rather than let someone else get hurt while they do nothing. -
Very sad indeed.
It's a shame he never got to show up in the new series, even if only for a cameo. -
Another brilliant episode.

Quote:I dunno about Portman, but Samuel L. Jackson nominated himself.Originally Posted by Grey Pilgrim
Random comment, but did someone nominate Samuel L. Jackson and Natalie Portman to be permanent characters in geek culture movies and shows? You just can't avoid those two.

Quote:I hope so too. I don't like many of DCs characters. Batman is one, and Green Lantern is another... I was hyped when they said they'd be doing a GL film... and then I was very disappointed after seeing the trailer.Originally Posted by CaptainFoamerang
I'm hoping it's just a result of the crappy marketing team handling Green Lantern.

Quote:Quite possibly.Originally Posted by Amy_Amp
But when the third Batman movie comes out I don't foresee anything from Marvel touching it.
Having said that, Iron Man didn't fair too badly against Dark Knight. Now, Dark Knight was better, no doubt, but Iron Man was a very close second. Even with Dark Knight Rises, Marvel might still have something up their sleeves. After all, The Avengers will be released around the same time... so... who knows. -

So, Thor vs. Green Lantern is this year's Marvel/DC?
