  1. More pics: Alfred Lucius Fox Henri Ducard Bats
  2. I missed Blade 2 but didn't Whistler say in the first film that vampires killed his wife and daughters? Heck, I thought Whistler died in the first one.....
  3. Darkhorizons.com are reporting that McG's no longer attached to the project. A setback in production, but probably good for the film itself
  4. The following is pathetically true. I wandered away from the children's section of the video store and found myself staring at Freddy, Pinhead and The Crow (not the same, granted, but I found goths scary too) and got such bad nightmares at the time that not only did I not watch horror films until very recently but I also didn't set foot in a video store for a good 10 years. Laugh away So I'm only contributing to say that I caught part 3 on MTV on tuesday and enjoyed it. But having not seen the others, I can't really vote
  5. I'm guessing this is the UK edition...... http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B...2106304-1206822
  6. That's what I was trying to say. Thanks
  7. I really wish I could remember more, but the episodes don't get that much airplay anymore. I always liked 'Christmas with the Joker', 'Second Chance' which saw Two-Face stage his own kidnapping before he was to undergo surgery on his face, 'Bane' was good introduction as was 'Two-Face' - I don't get the comics, y'see. The best, or most memorable, for me is Avatar, when Ra's al Ghul tracked down an ancient Egyptian mummified priestess w/ Batman & Talia on his tail. It introduced me to one of the most fascinating villains I've come across and his relationship with both Batman and his daughter. Vocal characterisation was good too - very menacing English accent, even if he's meant to be a bit more oriental
  8. http://cube.ign.com/articles/514/514645p1.html Thoughts? Mine are basically that StarFox/Lylat Wars games should always lean more heavily towards the flight element rather than the Fox-based platform shoot-em-up. I thought the game that Rare produced was NOT a Starfox game
  9. Oh GOD yes! This better be available on Amazon if it isn't coming to the UK tho'. Otherwise, I'll be SERIOUSLY pissed off.
  10. I've been hit with a bo staff (by a trained professional), which is similar enough to nunchucks, and trust me when I say it hurts like bloody Hell. Granted, the sword can cut you, but nunchucks, being solid pieces of wood, will hurt more. Oh, I don't doubt it. It's just that it seems like the enemy has to be 2 feet in front of you to actually use them, whereas swords - depending on the length, naturally - have a longer reach. It'd be more risky to be Michaelangelo rather than Leonardo, if you get where I'm coming from.
  11. One of the mysteries of life, I s'pose. Either that or a technical glitch, which is more likely.
  12. http://media.cube.ign.com/media/665/665526/vids_1.html I'm lovin' it! Movement seems very similar to the WM series, but there are grapples in there. The entrances are very cool too.
  13. Yay - 3D Link returns! Yay - Shigeru "God" Miyamoto waves a sword! Yay - 100th post! Just call me Special Sloth.....
  14. I'll go with Leo too - he's got the best weapons of the 4 - I've always wondered how bad fucking nunchucks could hurt somebody with swords....
  15. Just noticed an increase in cast including: Robert "Freddy" Englund - Riddler Ron "Hellboy" Perlman - Killer Croc Frank Gorshin (60's Riddler) - Hugo Strange Quite impressive vocal cast, though I'll reserve judgement as to whether it'll be better than the Conroy/Hamill led 90s series.
  16. I'm suprised a film like Spiderman 2 needs that kind of advertising, especially when you consider how big the first one was.
  17. I don't even know what Samus' origins are, and I'm a huge Nintendo fanboy! Anybody care/dare to do some fantasy casting?
  18. STILL hasn't come out in Banff yet..... :grumble: Ah well, when I come home it'll be out the day before my birthday.
  19. Quite, you! Comic book adaptations always blow. A better read would have been the TPBs. Wasn't X2 based on a particular issue? or can I not understand the subtleties of internet sarcasm?
  20. If you were a real nerd, on the back of your hand. If I ever wanted a tatoo, I'd do that!
  21. As I don't own my own GBA, that's top of my birthday list! Oh wait, June 7th for US. Christmas list! Yes, I'm a tight bastard.....
  22. Apologies for my ignorance
  23. Y'know how most CPU characters aren't hard to beat, even on level 9? Falco is the hardest SOB to beat - you must be good..........ish.
  24. Yes... :twitch: Wha?! Conroy's not the voice of Batman anymore? No, it's the guy who voices the 3D Spiderman :grumble:
