TV/Movies Megathread

[garbon]

It is more like thinking of "the break room" in the context of that movie.

[Ideologue]

I dunno.  I always liked Warlock, but I liked the Silver Surfer more.

As for Danvers, she can go to hell.  Her Civil War behavior was reprehensible.

The Surfer's good.  It's a shame FF2 worked out so poorly.

I find that he only works if the author has the courage to make Galactus something that you can talk with.

[Ideologue]

Concur.  I can understand, to a degree, why the look may be modified; but Galactus is one of the more interesting voices in the Marvel universe, and the relationship between him and his herald(s) compelling and necessary (except Airwalker).  Why throw that away?

[jimmy olsen]

Oh, I meant to say I watched Avengers the other night.  It was really cool.

However, the scope of the threat presented at the end was... weak.  It was fun to watch but I never bought that the regular military couldn't have handled that shit.

Neil!  Did you see it, and the first interstitial credits sequence?  The sequel tease.

They could fuck that up.  But that line, and the reaction shot, was perfect.  Dunno about blue eyes, though.  Where the fuck did they get that from? :shrug:

Darkseid > Thanos

[jimmy olsen]

Here's another random thing I liked, and I wonder if they had to fight for--Cap's affirmation of his Christianity (well, I'm assuming he's not Jewish or Muslim or a Sikh).  I thought that was a great line, and true to him being some standard issue white guy from 1945.

Not impossible that he's Jewish.

[Jaron]

If he was Jewish, he wouldn't be Captain America.

[Josephus]

I'd rather her below me than the Invisible Man...if you know what I mean.

What about the Invisible Woman?

An attractive invisible woman is sort of pointless.

I could sort of see that, except that a villain is only as good as his opposition, and Marvel has much better heroes than DC.

[Darth Wagtaros]

Better than captain Carrot and his Zoo Crew? Or Bat-Mite?

[Viking]

there is that joke about the flash stealing a quickie with wonder woman while she is getting boned by the invisible man

[Josephus]

Yeah. I remember a variant of that joke from my teens (gosh, 30 years ago).

Went something like:

Batman and Robin were waiting for Superman to show up at a super heroes meeting. Superman finally shows up, about half an hour late.

"Where were you?" Batman asks.

"Well," Superman says." I was flying over tall buildings on my way over here, when I see Wonder Woman lying on a rooftop, completely naked, legs wide apart...."

"Really?" Robin asks.

"Yeah," Superman continues. "So I thought I'd go down and show her what a Man of Steel is all about, if you know what I mean."

"I sure do," Batman says. "I bet she was surprised."

"Well yeah, "Superman blushes. "Though not as much as the Invisible Man."

Pa-Rum-Pum.

[Ed Anger]

Watched the Community shows on demand where Cheng becomes dictator. Other than Cheng's bits, utterly forgettable.

I can see why Sony fired the creator of the show.
