Dread

You're making me feel like a doof, I can't find the Spectre. Near as I can tell, the thing on the Statue platform is Miss Liberty's legs and toga. That's what I thought.

Fuck! All is not lost. Fucking money people piss me off so much. Our mortgage was okay but I've experienced so much bullshit with lenders not coming through it's ridiculous. My recent saga is that the payroll dumbass at the local head office only sent Megan's substitute teacher hours through to EI. So when they were approving her maternity leave they only saw something like 75 hours of work as opposed to the 600 hours needed over the past year. So we are a single income family for the next few weeks until they get their asses in gear. This is the same woman who paid me for full-time work when I was teaching summer school although I was only on a 0.4 contract. No pay stubs were mailed to me because postal systemes were off during the summer so I had to pay over 2000 bucks on my first 3 paychecks in the fall. :grumble: Anyway, look at it as a break in between packing an moving....picnic in between the cardboard towers of your living room and you'll look back at it when you're in the new home and shake your heads. As far as legal action: be careful who you piss off. They do hold your mortgage.

Did someone like, lose half your stuff during your move? Heh. Not quite. All your stuff? Did the mortgage fall through? Fuck, I hope not. All my best whatever happened.

Multiverse folks missing with regular DCU folks. Superman is crying, it looks like Barry Allen is the Flash, Donna Troy is Wonder Girl and a swashbuckling Batman?

Thanks slothian! There are a lot of horror films that do have depth. You just have to look for them, and only watch films made before the late 80s Stick around. In a couple of weeks I'll be covering Dawn of the Dead in much the same way and of course the other installments in the series to follow...

I am so confused...

What I despise are the anti-piracy commercials. It's like "fuck! I already rented it or bought it, what more do you want from me." And the comparison between the bigscreen TV with the surround sound and the movie theatre saying how it's not the same. They're right, it's not the same, when there's an annoying kid crying or talking during the movie it's my kid. There's no one talking on their cellphone or kicking my chair. I'll go back to the theatre when they cut theprices in half, not before.

Totally psyched for tonight's episode!!!

Thanks Yoda! This one kicked my ass. It felt like I was back in university again with limited sources! Love the banner. I totally expected the iconic panorama of the zombies but this one is just as iconic and much more suitable for the piece. Cheers. I've got a few ideas for a set of running themes (mostly 3-parters) but I'm not sure if I should do a lighter hearted piece first...

I hate Spidey usually and Nw Avengers is the only place I can handle him. The only way I really see New Avengers working in this capacity is as a team of terrorist busters. They could go after Hydra (probably the first order of business), AIM and Secret Empire (if they still exist). I assume that they will be in the employ of Nick Fury once he returns. I would hope so anyway. I will give this a try and eat crow if I need to. I'll even write it up for the site.

I just want to see Avengers stop guys from dropping buildings on people and this line-up just seems like they would be destroyed by the Wrecking Crew until, of course, Strange casts a spell to save them all. I would prefer two equally balanced teams. What happens when the two have to face off? New Avengers get obliterated, that's what. Half the Mighty Avengers team is cast with heroes who could beat the New Avengers by themselves.

Am I the only one bored by the line-up? I love Dr. Strange and Cage has been alright lately but Echo is the most boring new Marvel character since....well...Darkhawk. Bendis is filling this team to feed his fetish for the street level heroes. I'll give it one issue but it loks like Mighty Avengers holds the readership for me.

I loved this game. It was a Christmas present along with the system and Halo. It was a great diversion from the hunt and kill multiplayer mode of Halo that I used momentously. Great review!

I was half and half with this issue. I loved the set-up for the Initiative and the Cap/Punisher stuff. Everything else seemed a little forced. Filler til the final battle. Except for Strange, that was cool. The whole Cap/Punisher thing is interesting. It has always been hinted that Punisher and Cap are the same men from different wars (they had a battle in a What If? issue and in another, Castle was Captain America) and many creators have come out and said that (Chaykin and Ennis being the two off the top of my head). It's interesting to see Spidey (who has a history with both men) mention that and what Cap thinks about it. It was interesting to see the massive respect Punisher has for Cap and seeing Cap recognize that was brilliant. I see Punisher donning the costume in the future...we all know Cap will die right? When Punisher gunned down the Zgraders and then said "What?" with everybody looking at him, I laughed out loud for about 15 seconds. Great.

Do you understand how much of that money went to Uwe Boll? Something like $6!!! The way he funds his films gives him ridiculous returns on DVD sales. He is a bottomless pit of hackery but the man certainly knows what he's doing.

http://www.darkhorizons.com/news06/061215i.php So they'll kill Gwen in the fourth movie?

Am I the only one who voted? Come on people!!!!

I'm in conditionally. Depending on the books. I'm low on scratch and a million miles away from my lcs. Great idea!

Yes. Mucho nice! Probably the only comic character I would ever think of tattooing on my body...

I should add that I didn't see everything in genre film this year so if there's something that is blatantly missing from my list mention it and I'll either slap my forehead in shame or tell you why I am not looking forward to it. D

Happy birthday! Be honest: how bitter were your parents that tyhey didn't have the New Years baby? We were pulling for one ourselves...you get lots of free crap. Anyway, enjoy!

I was going to console you with some more kind words but not only am I being hypnotized by Leonardo, but Invader Zim there is pulling levers like gangbusters! Besides having to take Megan to the hospital everyday for a stress test on the baby in the belly (7 weeks early means they have to fly us out of the city to deliver ) it was nice to see my parents as they live on the other side of the country. And not to counter the talk of kids but the best part was watching my boy tear open presents. It was great! He'd put a bow on his head, chew wrapping paper and marvel at the various toys and things he received. The complete Flash series DVD and the Twilight Zone season 5 definitive edition6 DVD set didn't hurt either :laugh:

Agreed. Is it weird that FF4 2 might be the coolest superhero movie ever?

yer damn right! But daddy needs one first!

As do I! You share a birthday with my son who turned 1 today.
