Blues Brothers 2000
Why oh why oh why......
EDIT: Er, can this be counted as a video game? BB has been a platform game on either the NES or SNES, I'm pretty sure. If not, I totally understand why.

I've got to echo the above in that Kevin Conroy IS Batman, with Keaton being the best contender. Pumped for Bale though....
-
I know for a fact that Catwoman has also been advertised like mad over here as well - you know a studio really wants you to see a film when it get's it's own bus advert.
I should've seen Hellboy & Punisher in Banff but it lost out to more family friendly films. Hellboy's getting a lot of ads as well - three short trailers before a showing of Spiderman 2.
-
I don't suppose Back to the Future III and Wild Wild West count as proper westerns, so I'll say yes.
-
Shame, it was an excellent show. The art in a lot of episodes is superb and Aku might be one of the best cartoon villains ever! Episode XIII where he tells children fairy stories about how evil Jack is is probably the funniest thing I've ever seen in a cartoon!
Aku : The beast was struck, and was transformed, into... BEEEEEEF JERRRRRRRKY. -
Here's my order:
NES
Gameboy
SNES
Virtual Boy
N64
Gamecube
Genesis
PS2
6 - 1 - 1
You think you worship at the N-shaped alter? I'm at the point where I'm allowed to hand out penance.
As someone who went:
NES
Gameboy
SNES
N64
Gamecube
along w/ a few GBAs on the way, I proclaim myself Acolyte to High Priest Keith in terms of Nintendo fanboy-ism. No inferior companies for me....

Lack of Online titles
Probably more of a problem now than it was a few years ago, since online games have really taken off. If the next Nintendo console doesn't have that option, it may very well be their Dreamcast.....
Lack of third party exclusive
This would be my choice and yet it's not really intentional on Nintendo's part rather than the developer's recognising a lack of capabilities on the Gamecube. Viewtiful Joe was a major thing for them, and then it gets made for PS2 :grumble:
Nintendos kiddie image
For teen gamers who don't appreciate N's history, perhaps, but it's not really that big a deal.
No GTA or Halo
Halo is massively overrated. GTA would be great for N's fortune tho'. Basically, N needs it's own kind of GTA/Halo to reassert itself because Metroid doesn't seem to count....
PS2 and X-Box are just much better
Not really, they just have more going for them
Can't watch DVD's or listen to music on it
That's something that always puzzled me about the GC, that it was disk based but couldn't acomodate normal sized disks.
Really, it's a combined set of problems. Nintendo may just drop out of the home consoles market to solely focus on handhelds if the next one fails to address these problems so the future's not that bleak....

Rocksteady & Bebop easily.

Ran across an article whilst browsing IGN, which talks about the Scarecrow. Minor spolier below:
He will have the sack mask
Here's a pic of Murphy as Crane:
-
Luigi comfortably. He can be a really hard bugger to kill on Smash Brothers sometimes - takes a lot of damage....
Tails has namby-pamby twin-tails that can make him fly. Wow.
-
In no order
Spiderman 2
XMen 2
Batman
Pleasantville
The Truman Show
Ghostbusters
Kill Bill Vol. 1
Pulp Fiction
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
-
Old and it's not even close. The new series lacks a certain something called character, like most of the recent cartoon updates (He-Man anyone?).
Coincidentally, I found myself an audio file of the old opening theme and totally marked out!
-
Sometimes - mainly the Zelda series. Trying to get through the lost woods on the NES.....or the fucking Water Temple. :grumble:
-
Dr Mario is a great game: I'd do exactly the same as Yoda did. But Tetris has the edge just because it's so playable. It's also probably the reason that the Gameboy did so well when it first came out, although I expect people to disagree with that...
-
Gamecube, although my brother's on it so often that I barely get the chance to play it. Hook up the N64 at times too.
-
How good did Bale sound? Had the tone down to perfection, especially if you remember that he's Welsh.
Looks rather artsy, with an unusual range of locations. Nice teaser, all in all -
Gotta be Simon as he'd be able to outsmart Theodore easily and Alvin is essentially a wimp so Simon could, as James said, take him out through weaponry and then pick off Theodore.
It'd be the end of a glorious career though...
-
I read on the trivia page of S2 on IMDB that Raimi is thinking of doing both the Lizard and Osborne as the Goblin.
Though your plot would work too....
-
Just seen it this afternoon (opened in the UK on wedndesday) and was majorly impressed. Everything from Parker's unending woes at the beginning to Doc Ock to Harry's growth and Dafoe's cameo was great. And yes, JJJ is still the best scene-stealing character!
-
NOOOOOOOOOOOO!
It's been confirmed that Jessica Alba will play Sue Storm.
They better at least dye her hair blond, and find a way to explain why Sue and Johnny are the exact same age -- and look nothing alike.

Inspired.

I don't know if fellow Brits thought the same but I had to click the name Chris evans just to be sure it wasn't that one
I read somewhere that Julia Stiles was interested in doing a comic movie but didn't say which one she was looking at. Just a thought...
-
Seeing as this has moved out of the comic book category, does this mean it's no longer restricted to comic characters and is open to cross-format battles?
Two examples of what I mean:
Wolverine v Freddy Kreuger
Sonic the Hedgehog v The Flash
Can't find anything to suggest otherwise in the rules so could the above happen, or would people prefer it sticking to the comic genre, or characters within their own genre?
-
I was so bogged down reading waffle that I think I missed the thrust of his argument? Is it basically that he likes (grudgingly) S2 because it isn't dark and gritty? And that Nicholson was a worse Joker than Romero because he didn't play it camp? What the fuck is this guy on about?

More pics:

IMDB says it's being released in the States at the end of October. No UK release, but then I'm not a huge thriller fan anyway.
