  1. I've never found myself needing to bring it up in a conversation so I never bothered to learn how it's pronounced. Whenever I think about it I see the letters in my head instead of hearing it.
  2. I keep thinking Jessica Biel. She's hot and muscular. If not her, then someone like her physically.
  3. Also, they need to have a lead that looks believable fighting. At the risk of sounding sexist, most women look ridiculous fighting in movies and tv.
  4. The question is if they are going to do a more serious version, or a tongue in cheek version. I don't think people are going to accept a Batman Begins version of Wonder Woman that takes itself too seriously. I think it needs to be more of an Iron Man with humor. Kind of like they are doing with Green Lantern.
  5. They've been working on it for years. The problem is how to do it where she doesn't look hokey. A beautiful woman running around in a tiny outfit beating up people with a golden lasso while wearing a tiara sounds pretty stupid on the surface. When it gets done, I bet they change a lot of things. In that Captain America is now being done in live action (again), Wonder Woman won't have quite the same mountain of hokiness to conquer after that's released. Captain America doesn't have a woman's body to complicate things. Anything that shows a hint of skin will make her look like a stripper.

  7. http://www.superherohype.com/news/articles/107328-dc-entertainment-to-announce-its-superhero-line-up Harry Potter has been holding back the whole DC universe?
  8. That's still an improvement over the first film. The first one gets a pass though because it has to tell the origin. There is no excuse for not showing Tony kick the crap out of someone in the first scene of the sequel.
  9. I finally got around to watching it. I liked it, but why did it take over 30 minutes for the first action scene? This is an action movie after all.

    Penicillin will clear that up. The shame however, lasts a lifetime.
  12. A clip from the movie is at aicn.
  13. Fact: Comics helped me learn to read. I am a strong believer in anything you can do to get kids to read, do it.

    Thanks to Lady Gaga, I'm wanting a steak.

  16. http://blastr.com/2010/09/first-teaser-for-syfys-be.php There is a teaser also, but it doesn't show anything but a door. U.K. fans can start yelling now....

    LOL @ Dallas. No time left and down by 6. They do this trick play that makes everyone think they are all confused. Romo throws the TD pass and oops, offensive holding. Watching the Cowboys lose makes me happy, but watching them celebrate in the endzone not realizing they just lost makes my week.
  18. http://www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=69730 Wow. I was not expecting it to make that much. Goes to show what you can do when there isn't anything else worth seeing.

    I doubt that's real. No teacher would take the time to explain what happened in a note. They would just say he was being disruptive or disrespectful. Also, what school has teachers send personal letters to the parents when a kid is in trouble? They send forms with check marks next to what they did and have the parents sign it and send it back. They don't have time for letters like that one.
  20. He did a lot of movies, but most of us probably know him from Weird Al's UHF as the bad guy. He was one of those "I know that guy from somewhere" kind of actors. The guy has over 200 credits listed at IMDB, and has done everything from voice work in Batman:TAS to Invasion of the Body Snatchers. I think he deserves a mention.
