One week until the end.....

LOL I actually really enjoyed Speed Racer. Heck, I saw it twice. The reason for that is it was really close to the source material, and I took great enjoyment from that. But I can't defend Spirtle in any way.

Yeah, that's how I always took it. Guess it could go either way.

Great review you three. My take on Chill's intent at the hearing was that he was lying when he said he felt bad, only because the Roman says that in jail Chill lied about how Thomas Wayne begged like a dog. That's how I took it.

4 and a half hours?! I could kiss you all, you wonderful men!

Awesome! Enter the Dragon is my favorite Bruce Lee movie!

You and I have disagreed on things in the past Mike, but I gotta say I thought you hit the nail on the head about Flash: REBIRTH, especially about Van Sciver as an artist. I dunno if I dislike him as much as you do necessarly, but he sure as hell is a pin-up artist and the wrong fit for a Flash book.

Thanks again everybody

Wow thanks! It's finals week right now, so any celebrating will have to wait until next Tuesday, but thanks all the same!

Honestly, if they adapted All-Star Batman & Robin, the Boy Wonder, I would love it if they cast Kevin as Batman. Yes, only to hear him drop that line. If anyone could pull it off, it's him! He said it at Comi-Con last summer. I'll see if I can find the video.

WIN Although the guy apprantly didn't know that Paul Dini only wrote two episodes for JL and two for JLU as he wasn't an Executive Produce or head writer on either shows like he was on B:TAS, S:TAS and BB. Bruce Timm, James Tucker and later Dwayne McDuffie were the executive producers. I guess since 2/3 of those guys are black, one could still call them the Minoriteam, though I would't advise it.

Except for A Better World. And The Terror Beyond. And Only A Dream

Not a drinker, but a suicide of Red, Green and Blue Powerade with Grape Juice is pretty tasty.

I feel bad, this is the first time FYEO wasn't even on my ind when the new episode came out. This caught me by complete surprise!

Howzat? The basic plot we've seen before, which is fine. I have no problem with superhero fiction using the same story elements from time to time. However, something new needs to be added to it to keep me interested. And this movie didn't do that. I thought Owlman's overarching plan and the fact that the "opposite" Batman and Superman were basicaly a nihilist and a thug put an interesting spin on what is admittedly a fairly typical superhero plot. The movie could've basically ended after Superman and Lex have Ultraman and Jimmy Olsen arrested, but the problems that arose after that and the escalation of Owlman's schemes were fairly inspired.

Howzat?

Why the fuck not? That was a great movie.

LOL me too. I'm really enjoying this show guys. It does seem like Megan tends to not care for the majority of movie you two review, but I gotta say she had good points about the Untouchables. She also mentioned Billy Drago reminding her of Michael Jackson. Billy Drago played the mobster in the music video "You Rock My World".

Not at all, he either trusts someone completley or not at all. If he didn't trust J'onn, he'd never work with him. Totally in character.

Well the thing about that is that on he commentary they said that they thought up to Starcrossed was gonna be it for them. They really didn't know they were going to do JLU. My thing is that barring that it's still a fantastic episode.

So? Aren't you at least invested and engaged in what's going on? You're right, you know something's fishy, but that shouldn't be dismissed because "Oh this ain't real!" It's obvious that this isn't the normal world, but you shouldn't dismiss it because you could easily tell that. It served as an opening, not a straight-up mystery. Okay, A) Doomsday appeared outta nowhere in the comics as well. B)He wasn't so much as jobbed out as he was a device to show how ruthless J. Lord Superman was, but to each his/her own. C)It was supposed to illustrate how there were lines this Superman was more than willing to cross. Lois and Lex point that out minutes later. In the commentary it's straight-up said that the Justice Lords are facsists. In their own world, they're pretty much fascists. The very name LORDS denotes a fasisct overtone. I personally never got that they were nice guys, but since they saw a world that was younger in ideals than they were from their perspective, they found it their business to go over to their world and inflict their regime. That's the type of people they've become in the two years since Pres. Lex died. Yeah, you gave episode like a 10 or something. Looking at this episode's own merits, it seems to me like you're just asking questions without trying to find the answers. Q: Why did Doomsday just appear? A: Why did he just appear in the comics?/To show the type of person J.Lord Superman had become. Q: Why'd the Lords visit the other world? A: Thats how they roll. Q:How did Batman have a dimensional transporter in his bat-cave? A: Technology has clearly developed in the two years since the opening. Look at the new Watchtower. Q: Why'd the cops show up outside Arkham? A: Joker called them. Honestly it bugs me because it comes off as rampant nitpicking. I'm not ragging on your right to your opinion concerning this episode, but they way you got there does not seem fair. It's as though you can enjoy it all you want, but if one little thing comes up it's knocked down several points. And I loved this episode the night it originally aired. JLU has nothing to do with my feelings on this episode, as does most of the episodes I like that tend to be very lowly graded throughout WFP. The idea of a fasisct Justice League encountering and overpowering our Justice League is engaging and intriguing at best, and ambitious at worst and I think they pulled it off perfectly. If something's bugging, it's bugging like, for example, why didn't the League try destorying the artifact after obtaning it in Knight of Shadows. Thats a legitimate complaint. But I'm sorry, the ones here just did not seem worth grading the show so low. It's like when you guys went over "His Silicon Soul" and spent 5 minutes asking how the robot Batman had a utility belt before figuring out that the H.A.R.D.A.C. system infiltrated the bat-cave before. It's like A) did that really take you out of the show and B) it wasn't that hard a resolution to get to IMO. The production team on this show aren't idiots. I dunno, if you like or dislike something then thats your bag. I don't think the range of your opinions was fully justified, but thats my opinion.

Dwayne McDuffie on “Maid of Honor”: “My master’s degree is in Physics. I cheated a bit but not much, certainly less than I did with people who can fly. The current medical belief is that a ‘regular’ human can survive unprotected in space for about three minutes. Here’s a link to a popular article on the subject. As far as recovery time goes, I think Flash is tougher than a regular human, we know he has enhanced healing. “[…] Yikes, did I say three minutes? That should have been ninety seconds. Still, that’s twice as long as I had Flash out there, and he certainly would not burst like people do in bad science fiction movies. I made one big mistake; Flash shouldn't have been cold, the vacuum of space would have preserved his body temperature. If anything, he should have been sunburned from the unfiltered UV radiation. On the Internet, you can find plenty of links to more technical discussions of surviving in a vacuum. Here’s a fairly jargon-free one from NASA that includes information about a real guy actually surviving in a near-vacuum for fifteen seconds.

Not to be annoying Will, but I believe it's spelled "chakra".

"I wouldn't trust for as long as I could fuck you!"? *sigh* Adham, why must you challenge my strong feminist stance with such awesome lyricism? Terrific show fellas. The outtakes were awesome, with my favorite being the pillow fight.

5 and a half hours??? awesome
