Rapid Fire Friday Super-hero / Comic Book Movie Edition
To celebrate the release of Superman Returns, I figure I would go through some of the comic movies from the last few decades and give my usual quick thought on the casting of each. And no, havent seen Supes yet probably go in the next few days.
Batman Michael Keaton was a good Bruce Wayne but...

Old friends on old TV
I love old TV shows. Not talking about the 50s and 60s shows Im talking about the 80s. There is a new channel on DirecTV called Sleuth and it mainly shows old 80s mysteries like Simon & Simon, A-Team, Miami Vice and The Equalizer. Today alone I got to see Edward Woodward kill Kevin Spacey with a forklift and Don...

Rapid Fire Friday
Im angry with Rick Remender trade paperbacks should not have cliffhangers but the Fear Agent trade does. I like the book but Im not happy about the cliffhanger.
The US lost at soccer/football now we can get all that silly World Cup thing out of the way and move on to important sports like Lacrosse.
I bought three DVDs the other day...

A quick joke
No time to write tonight, finishing up a project but I thought I would share a joke to at least make you smile if you came by.
An old man goes into see his doctor.
DOCTOR: What seems to be the problem Mr. Smith?
SMITH: Well Doc, lately Ive had horrible gas I cant control it and it smells something awful and...

When it rains, it pours
I sit at my keyboard; sweat pouring off my brow and type out the events of the last 45 minutes I do this both for your entertainment and for my sanity because knowing others understand my pain will be a great comfort.
As with many comic creators, I have amassed a large collection of said comics. Some 40 long boxes...

Gone too far
So last night I was up working late on a script like you do and I came across something that I couldnt believe was on the air. FUSED TV, the last channel to actually play videos, has a new show on called PANTS-OFF, DANCE-OFF. In this show regular people dance in front of a music video never a song I have EVER...

No sports tonight partly because the only sport Im watching is the World Cup and since I cant figure out what a yellow card does then I shouldnt speak about it. But I enjoyed the Australia v Brazil match the other day.
No, tonight I want to talk about a TV ad I just saw. Ive been seeing it for the last few days but...

Lately Ive been seeing ads for the 6th season of Macgyver on DVD and every time there is that moment of I should get that and then realizing I would never actually watch it.
Having loved the Paul Dini/Bruce Timm incarnations of Batman, Superman and the Justice League Im a little disappointed that the next series is Legion of Super-heroes I would...

How could people not know Freddie Mercury was gay? If the mustache wasn't a giveaway - his band name was QUEEN!!!! That shocked a lot of guys I went to high school with and I wish I could have seen their faces when they learned the horrible, horrible news.
I decided to not follow at all the Infinite Crisis or fallout afterwards. I refuse to buy 178 titles to follow one storyline when I know I'll be disappointed in the end, anyway. I'll have to apologize to Gail Simone, Mark Waid and Grant Morrison. Hell, I'll just apologize to myself, because everyone mistakes me for him at cons anyway.

Man has this been an odd time for comics. Im seeing more and more regular media coverage of comics and for completely different reasons. First we had Batwoman being announced as a lesbian. Then Superman who may or may not be portrayed by a homosexual actor has a history of documentary that seemed to almost ignore the comics that spawned the character all...

Soapbox Tuesday
Tuesdays are fun because I get to look for the absurd news story of the day and then talk about it. The sad thing is I usually dont have to look too far for a absurd story. Today it took all of five minutes.
This story starts in the little town of Northport New York where two senior students choose the following quotes...

Slapshot Monday
I had to drive out to Burbank today and I turned on the NFL channel on my radio. The topic today was Ben Roethlisberger. For those of you not familiar with Ben (Im going to call him Ben or Big Ben because I dont want to re-write his last name any more) he was a rookie quaterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers the year...

I made a purchase in January and now the website keeps sending me emails with other things I might want to buy like barbecues, lawn furniture, wind chimes, hammocks and garden hoses. The thing that bugs me is not the emails but the name of the site I made the purchase from: JustAirHockeyTables.com

Tank Girl - can't watch it enough. I'm also with you on Daredevil. I don't like Affleck at all generally, but I think he cared enough to actually do the work on this one. I forgot Fantastic 4 minutes after I watched it.
