  1. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wo-gGes6qig. Oh my god, I want to see this movie!
  2. Trying to put together my bookshelf so I can get the five boks of boxes in my tiny, tiny room unpacked. Only problem is that I can never get time to work on it because my roomies are either argueing, going through the hallway, or clogging the toilet so I have to run out and get a plunger and try to fix the clog. It's altogether fraking crap.
  3. I agree with you on that. Identity Crisis was what got me back to DC after a few years of flirting with Marvel. Reading it from month to month was awesome because it was a mystery and so deliciously so. The only part that ever bugged me was the League mindwiping Batman but even that was handled well in the longrun and explained how dickish Batman has gotten in recent years.
  4. I love his response to Harley Quinn. Is there anyone, straight, gay, male, or female on this board that can admit to not having even the slightest hint of a crush on Harley?

    ... I think I need an adult.
  6. Not to mention if we include what Magneto does here as being an act of villainy, then Wolverine murdering all those Hellfire guards makes him a villain. Same goes for Punisher killing murderers or any of the revenge "You Killed My Family" movies where the hero kills the people who wronged him. If anything, I'd classify Magneto as an anti-hero or an Anti-Villain.
  7. Got moved into my new place. Now I just need to stop watching reruns of Married With Children, get off my ass, and finish unpacking. *grumble* Oh well, at least I have central air now as opposed to a fan and the window.
  8. BTW, I didn't mean for that to sound cruel or anything. Just realized it might have sounded like I was happy he died or something.
  9. The world just got a whole lot quieter.
  10. Nostalgia Critic: Transformers 2 and Nostalgia Chick: Transformers.
  11. True but it was an important episode for how they developed Cartman's character. Prior to that episode, if Cartman said he was going to kill all the non-Gingers or tried to start a Nazi Cult of Mel Gibson, it would have seemed stupid and out of character. You wouldn't take him seriously. The face that he not only causes the deaths of Scott Tenorman's parents but takes glee for it establishes Cartman is more than just talk. It makes it so that every episode after where Cartman pulls off the impossible, terrible thing, you take him seriously that he might accomplish it. I love Cartman because I know he's more than just talk. He will do the douche thing and, if pushed, he's going to murder you.
  12. I figure this is going to be the equivalent of one of the silver-age "Imaginary Stories" that DC used to do (because Superman is real, don't you know?). It makes sense with Archie since the entire line has been stuck in faux-fifties Riverdale for like 50 years.

    I always get my comics at my local From a Friend. Why, I walk to the From a Friend everyday and engage in many things one would do at From a Friend. Occasionally I feel guilty and slip off to To an Acquaintance but I always return to From a Friend in the end.
  14. Butters is awesome. He really is this innocent kid that just gets stuck in these crappy situations and has probably the worst parents in a town where every adult, in the long run, is a complete and utter dumb-ass. My other favorite is Stan, mainly because he seems to be the person with the most common sense in a town where everyone is at varying stages of massive stupidity.
  15. I just watched the Nostalgia Critic Moonwalker video and now I feel sad. Here's a link to Smooth Criminal so we can remember the man is awesomer days.

    THAT image is now burned into my head. Damnit! Where's the acid when I need it? Must burn images out!
  17. Both Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett in the same day. That... that's just sucky.
  18. Rewatching Season 1 of Gargoyles while I clean and pack stuff. Did not know I had so much crap in one small room.
  19. I like how Magneto and Galactus are considered Villains. Within recent past, Magneto has been an ally to the X-Men more often than not and Galactus is a cosmic force of nature. To say that he's evil for eating planets is to say that we're evil for eating Cheesebrugers (or veggie burgers. Any consumption is evil apparently.) As for the uses of Black Adam, Catwoman, Ozymandias, Bizarro, Talia al Guhl, Amanda Waller, Lucifer, General Ross, and The Shade, the first two are anti-heroes, Ozy is doing something wrong but to consider anyone a villain in Watchmen is to miss the point, Bizarro would have to have a good idea of what he was doing to be considered a villain, Talia is new to the villain thing and isn't even that much of one, Waller and Ross are people who are doing their jobs, usually in bad ways but always with something resembling good intentions, and Lucifer and The Shade are examples of not doing the research. Anyone who read Sandman and the Lucifer series knows that calling Lucifer a villain is missing much of the point. The Shade is too complex a character to just put in a box. And really, how can you do a list of the top 100 villains and completely forget to put Rainbow Rider or Crazy Quilt on there? Standards people! Standards! Oh and Deathstroke is 32. Because the guy who can beat up the Justice League is a worse villain than The Kingpin.

    Huh. Whoever thought that turning Hilary Clinton into a sex symbol, you do not want to even begin to comprehend the miseries I will visit upon you. They will sing songs of the horrors that I will unleash and only when I believe that you have suffered worse than any other human being will I cease the force-feeding of Egg Nog Shakes and viewings of The Osmond Family Christmas and allow you to die.
  21. Seeing this trailer before Transformers last night almost made up for the eight dollars. Almost. I like how the Fire Nation ships really do look like Fire Nation ships. One problem is that the trailer refers to the Air Nomads as a nation but oh well, it happens.
  22. I'll go ahead and throw the movie a bone: Jetfire was a pretty good character and the only character other than Optimus and Soundwave that doesn't backtrack in character development, make me facepalm, feel like a gimmick, or just be generally annoying. If the movie had just been 147 minutes of just Jetfire, Optimus, Rampage, and Soundwave dancing on the scrap heap of the Twins and Shia, then I think I could have gotten into the movie and apid to see it twice, once in IMAX.

    And that's not a bad thing.
  24. Soundwave was in there and was probably one of the things that there isn't a real complaint about. Instead of a tape deck, he's a satellite and Rampage is the only one of his robots that are in the movie. He mainly floats up in space most of the movie and makes no terrible one-liners. So many terrible one liners.
  25. I formally apologize to everyone for at any point defending this piece of trash. I owe you all a coke. Dear god, I just want to crawl up into a ball and drink until I never have to remember this movie again. Why the hell did a robot have giant testicles? Why did they feel the need to assassinate the characterization of Megatron? Jerry Bruckheimer is truly a god among men: The Gd of Terrible Film Making.
