  1. Bloody Disgusting is calling the film "Murderous" and is "a giant monster movie (a parasite) shown on cheap cameras from regular people's perspective."
  2. I would put South Park in there with those shows if you are talking about sharp satire. I can't get past the fart jokes and juvenalia but yes I'm aware of it's satire. I don't think it's anywhere in the same league as those I mentioned.
  3. That said, when my shitty local theatre gets the movie (probably in three weeks or so) I'll be first in line. My wife wants to see it and it's rare to want to see the same movie. I'm all over it.
  4. I'm the same Yoda. However, while I think that the heyday of the Simpsons is seasons 6-10 (absolute brilliance), the show is still the sharpest satire and one of the funniest shows on television today. Besides Stewart, Colbert, Family Guy and the Office there is nothing out there even remotely in competition with this show.

    Ultimates 3

    God, I was wondering the same thing. Other than that, though, (and admittedly, I know NOTHING about "The Ultimates"), this artwork is absolutely stunning and makes me want to go pick it up. I don't know how anyone could NOT know about comicdom's second longest running 26 issue series (planetary has it beat!)

    Ultimates 3

    Nope. She's been in Ultimate Spider-Man. Plus she has white hair, not blond. Dagger?

    Ultimates 3

    I've never been the biggest Joe Mad fan but that image looks cool. I'll be sticking around to check this series out.
  9. I don't have the link but maybe Variety reported it after another Western Horror type film is announced by Rogue pictures. Warner Bros. has optioned Jonah Hex! Look for a resurgence in Westerns (YAY!!!) in the coming years and an actor way too young to play Jonah in the role.
  10. I agree with you, and think Ratchet should have died instead. I never argued the point about him being black or not. He obviously was supposed to bring that into our heads. Even on Cybertron they keep the black man down...
  11. I think it's kind of silly to expect rounded characters in a Michael Bay film. He goes through each script and if there's a character for whom an exploding truck or plummeting airplane doesn't revolve around he cuts them from the film. He is the bane of film making and should have his career cut short by a blackball of logic. Whoa...sorry.
  12. Here is a picture from the filming: I heard that he's actually a hero addicted to booze and painkillers and that it's dark. However, anything could have changed between then and now.
  13. welcome to the fold fellas! Reading bad Annihilation tie-ins so others don't have to since 2007! D
  14. It is a British film...you guys wait longer for American releases and Vice Versa. Shit...when I lived there I saw High Tension (actually called Switchblade Romance in the UK) before anyone here even heard about it.
  15. The info is from imdb so it may not be true. Oftentimes they are wrong.
  16. Sunshine which was apparently released on July 20th is Danny Boyle's (28 Days Later, Millions, Trainspotting) take on a group of astronauts on a mission to reignite the sun...anyone seen it? I think Boyle's got an eye for the fantastic like no other and Cillian Murphy's back to help him out.
  17. So it's like every other Michael Bay film then? Imagine that!

    Final Crisis

    Only when he's in danger of being killed...
  19. Kind of freaky kind of cool

    Final Crisis

    Just makes me wish that Jones was on the CD covers. In my mind, I see a bit of a paring down by looking at what might constitute a future rendition of JLA.

    Final Crisis

    JG Jones is a golden god!!! So I guess we know what Countdown is counting down to...
  22. I like the juxtaposition here. Oh, and the Feds probably have some questions for you and Dread. I'm an innocent bystander caught in Yoda's web of lies! web of lies I tell you!!!
  23. That was like Airplane...on Meth!
