Katy Segal ? Really ? Couldn't find the time to double check your review ?

Mean and Green: Comicscape Reviews The Incredible Hulk - Jun 18, 2008 - 04:49am
I agree with this review except for "Tim Roth portrays Blonsky as Generic British Badass. The film defines the character through his love of combat and his lust for power. But, he lacks the complexity of Ian McKellan as Magneto from X-Men, or William Defoe as Norman Osborne from Spider-Man. Blonsky just wants more strength, more speed, and more power so that he kicks more ass because he likes it." I didn't get that, my impression was that he was a fighting man who saw his days of being able to fight coming to an end. This comes from his line about being in the trenches and staying there till he can't do it anymore. I felt that Ross saw this to and exploited it. Blonsky even goes as far as saying that if he could put all the skills and knowledge he has now into his younger self, he wouldn't want to fight that guy. I don't think he was a moral abomination in the beginning; he was just a soldier, who’s good at what he did and doesn't know anything else. To someone like that, getting older, slower and weaker is a fate worse than death. Therefore when an opportunity comes along to prevent that he jumps at it. When Banner is captured then he fears that this opportunity is over, so he does what he feels he needs to stay strong forever. Now my geek moment: Hearing "HULK SMASH" sent a thrill down my spine.

New TV Spot Featuring Cameo in HULK - Jun 09, 2008 - 04:33am
I live in a completely Tivo'ed world. I don't catch any of these spots because I fast forward through commercials. I remember the last time I tried to watch regular tv and couldn't because I hated all the commercials. So as far as I'm concerned, Marvel spoil away (as long as it's just in TV spots).

TV Wasteland: Have You Heard of the Gemini Division? - Jun 09, 2008 - 04:09am
That is the first Robin Hood (actually on at 8 EST not 7 ) it is the repeat of last Saturday's Robin Hood. 9:00 EST is the new episode.

Fox Announces Premiere Dates for Fall - Jun 06, 2008 - 04:50am
These are the fall premieres. 24 and Dollhouse are both premiering in January. On another note, do we really need 2 hr premiers of game shows ?

Christopher Lee Agrees to Return to MIDDLE EARTH - Jun 05, 2008 - 04:22am
Ron Perlman for the voice of Smaug. Or maybe CGI him down to play Thorin.

TV Wasteland: Get an Early Look at the New Fall Shows - May 19, 2008 - 04:12am
It was on the frontpage for me.

Animated HULK Series Arrives on DVD - May 14, 2008 - 04:05am
Nice to see that all those theme songs are able to stand the test of time. I have to say that the Hulk's is my favorite, followed by Capt. America's.

Superbad's Jonah Hill in TRANSFORMERS 2? - Apr 30, 2008 - 03:58am
I like him. I thought he was pretty funny in Forgetting Sarah Marshal.

The Mania Manifesto: Top Six Reasons Grand Theft Auto IV Will Suck - Apr 28, 2008 - 04:07am
Personally, as one who has just gotten an Xbox 360, I find it hard to put down the controller as it is. The fact that I didn't preorder GTA and that I am so pumped for Iron Man means I will have no problem dropping 10 dollars for the movie instead of playing games. Or 20 or 30 or 40 depending on how hard Iron Man rocks.

Three New TV Spots for IRON MAN - Apr 24, 2008 - 03:50am
GGAAHHHHH!!!! No more spots please, I can't take it. Just one more week, I've already called out sick on May 2nd.

NYCC: First Look at Incredible Hulk Game - Apr 24, 2008 - 03:46am
OK that has won me over, time to get a next gen console. What do the masses here say ? XBox 360 or a Playstation 3 ? Also it looks like it's the Abomination or at least not an armor wearer. It looks like the figure is wearing shorts or tattered pants of some kind.

Get Your Mania Monster Madness On! - Apr 23, 2008 - 04:17am

First Pic of Joe's SCARLETT Revealed - Apr 17, 2008 - 04:07am
Hmmm..... 26 comments but not one of you 'bang'ed her. I guess it's up to me again... it's a hard life.

McConaughey Is the New MAGNUM P.I? - Apr 03, 2008 - 04:07am
Who cares about Magnum ?!?!?! Who are playing T.C., Rick and Higgins ?

Kevin Conroy returns in Batman Gotham Knight - Mar 21, 2008 - 05:03am
Dazzler, "Bruce Timm said Conroy was the obvious choice for both widespread fan approval and to provide an overriding sense of continuity within a film in which Batman appears in so many new, visual variations." This leads me to believe that he will voice all of the stories in Gotham Knight.

LOST: Ji Yeon - Mar 17, 2008 - 07:43am
Well Hanso, the freighter may be close enough to be affected, maybe to a lesser extent. I believe that I read somewhere that the head guys said the they weren't going to go the time travel direction.

LOST: Ji Yeon - Mar 17, 2008 - 06:07am
The toy store owner's comment wasn't a clue that it was a flashback. He only said "IN the year of the dragon, it will bring luck" he never said it was the year of the dragon. I've seen people on a lot of boards be confused by this. For me I knew it was a flashback when I saw his cell phone. No time travel is necassary to explain, just that the island and a portion of the area surrounding it is running at a different rate of time, presumably slower.

Spartans Returning, Y Trilogy and More Brainiac - Mar 14, 2008 - 04:00am
I have to disagree with ex, I want another AVP only because it won't be on Earth. Give me an Alien planet and let the slaughter begin, I'm so there.

SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES: What He Beheld - Mar 06, 2008 - 05:21am
This show wasn't supposed to be the season finale but the damn writers strike made it so. If you look at it like there was probably supposed to be 3 or 4 more episodes then the explosion scene isn't that bad. If you like Rescue Me then you had to love the raid scene. As someone pointed out to me it was a textbook Rescue Me scene: 1. Awesome song --- Check 2. Johnny Gavin present --- Check 3. Slow Motion effects --- Check

LOST: The Constant - Mar 03, 2008 - 04:13am
"Does anyone remember what year it was in the last episode with Kate, because now we finally have a marker as to what year it is, as far as when they get off the island. 1994. " Actually I believe the calendar said it was December 24, 2004. I think Kate's was in 2008 but not really sure. I loved the Black Rock mention and hope we get to see what the logbook says.

SANDS OF OBLIVION - Feb 27, 2008 - 04:36am
"Who thought this was a good idea and more importantly how did it ever make it on to TV?" C'mon you answered your own question when you said it was originally on Sci-Fi. As someone else said, the four most terrifying words are "A Sci-Fi Original Movie"

Slicing Cold Cuts with Lance Stahlberg - Feb 27, 2008 - 04:31am
Here, here !! Justice League: New Frontier totally rocked. I also loved the "History of the JLA" extra as well as the sneak peek at "Gotham Knights".

BIONIC WOMAN Officially Axed by NBC? - Feb 21, 2008 - 03:40am
Sweet, now there's room in the schedule for the Manimal remake.

Strike Victims - Feb 18, 2008 - 03:50am
Pushing Daisies will be back next season. I'm not sure if they are going to do anymore for this season though.

Tolkien Estate Sues New Line - Feb 12, 2008 - 04:28am
Whiskeymovie, I take offense to your post. You'll be hearing from my lawyer shortly. See you in court.

Make This a Better World for Maniacs - Feb 11, 2008 - 04:04am
What I would like to see added, is an easier way to search for past articles/reviews/interviews etc. Right now I have to root around and dig for awhile for something if it's been about a week or so since I've seen it. Then again maybe there is an easy way and I just don't know it. If that's the case then I would like to see an easy way to find out what features / tools this site has & uses.

International Trailer for TAKEN - Feb 05, 2008 - 04:04am
Looks good. I like Liam Neeson in these roles. It reminds me a little bit of The Limey.

Sanctuary Finally Coming to TV - Feb 04, 2008 - 05:00am
I don't think the flash forwards are replacing the the flashbacks. It's just a new addition to the story telling process for the show.

Rise Up and Hear the Bells: The Return of Captain America - Jan 30, 2008 - 04:32am
If they do bring Steve Rogers back, for God's Sake only let Bru write it. He's the only one who can. I never would have thought that anyone could bring Bucky back to life in a way that didn't make me punch a wall, but he did.

BOURNE ULTIMATUM Sells $95 Million in DVDs - Dec 18, 2007 - 04:27am
I got the box set for the trilogy on the way. Can't wait.

LEGEND Has Record Breaking Debut - Dec 17, 2007 - 06:56am
My favorite bits was at the end of the opening scene where the lions steal his kill. The camera pulls back and you see a billboard for a Superman / Batman movie. It looks like it will be out in 2010.

STARDUST - Dec 17, 2007 - 06:15am
I saw it and loved it. Of course I'm biased as I'm a huge Gaiman fan.

Updated: How Long Before Your Shows Go Dark? - Dec 14, 2007 - 06:04am
Journeyman has 2 more to air next week on Monday and then Wednsday and then it's done. I mean for good, I don't think it's been ordered for a full season. Life & Moonlight I don't know about.

BIONIC WOMAN: Do Not Disturb - Nov 30, 2007 - 06:15am
I keep watching because the only thing they have right is Jonas. They keep developing him and making him a more complex character. Not to mention a complete bad-ass. I saw the whole valet thing coming but watching Jonas take him out was way better than this show deserves. Dump this show and create one that is centered around Jonas.

ALL-STAR SUPERMAN #9 - Nov 27, 2007 - 11:05am
I'm with you guys, I stopped after issue 3.

GOLDEN COMPASS Director Answers Questions - Nov 15, 2007 - 06:22am
Count me in as one of the people who will go see this and read the books because of all this ruckus. I didn't know this story/movie even existed til the protests started happening.

Narcissa Malfoy Cast in HALF BLOOD PRINCE - Nov 12, 2007 - 06:42am
Wow Half-Blood Prince is out in nine days ?? Man they really rushed that into production. 8)

REAPER: Love, Bullets, and Blacktop - Nov 09, 2007 - 06:31am
"Could there be something in Sam’s contract that says Sam must be turned to the dark side in a certain amount of time or the contract is void?" That's exactly what I thought as well, it probably has something to do with the page from the contract that his Father burned.

Marvel's Joe Quesada Talks AVENGERS - Nov 07, 2007 - 06:09am
I'm American and I would never call Canadians cowards. They were there on D-day and they fought in some of the nastiest battles in Italy in WWII . No they are far from cowards. Plus they took in all the cowards...er...uh...I mean "Conscientious Objectors" from the US who wouldn't fight in Vietnam. That being said I would like to know why being "a good ol Canadian" means not digging Captain America. What did he ever do to Canada ?

HEROES: The Line - Nov 01, 2007 - 06:21am
"And who the hell is this Adam Monroe guy? " Wasn't he the guy on 'To Close for Comfort' played by the great thespian Jim J. Bullock ?

WB Grabs Berlanti to Helm GREEN LANTERN - Oct 29, 2007 - 06:08am
Was that for real ? I always thought that it was just a stupid rumor. Maybe my mind was just trying to protect me from the horrible truth that someone had actually considered it.

Fox Possessed in JENNIFER'S BODY - Oct 23, 2007 - 06:09am
I've only seen her in Transformers. Are there any movies you guys recommend that she's in and has a chance to act ?

TRANSFORMERS - 2 Disc Special Edition - Oct 15, 2007 - 06:21am
I think someone pointed out that Starscream took off with the remaining jets or something. I don't remember personally, I'll look when I pick this up.

Rider Strong Joins PULSE Sequel - Oct 15, 2007 - 05:52am
Yeah it came out last year with Kristen Bell. This just reminded me that I did want to rent it.

Double post

Latest GOLDEN COMPASS Trailer - Oct 10, 2007 - 06:08am
We don't do that "first" thing here, we're a more sophisticated brand of interweb nerds. "who disappointed me in Casino Royale not so much because of her acting, but because her wardrobe and makeup hid the true erotic beauty I fell in lust with in the movie The Dreamers. " So you mean you were disappointed because she wasn't naked through half of Casino Royale? Because I was disappointed she wasn't naked through all of Dreamers

ANACONDA 3 and 4 To Sci-Fi Channel - Oct 08, 2007 - 01:49pm
Holy crap did I see someone actually post that Flash Gordon was great ?? Incredible, so your the person that's watching.

ANACONDA 3 and 4 To Sci-Fi Channel - Oct 08, 2007 - 05:58am
By the way was it here or somewhere else that I heard the following quote : --The scariest four words in the english language are, "An original Sc-fi movie" truer words were never spoken.

ANACONDA 3 and 4 To Sci-Fi Channel - Oct 08, 2007 - 05:56am
Shogun I would watch that movie. Please pitch it to Sci-fi please.

SERENITY Sequel on the Horizon? - Oct 05, 2007 - 05:53am
Hmmmm Metalwater hasn't commented yet... I wonder if the news made his head explode ;)

HEROES: Lizards - Oct 03, 2007 - 06:00am
I'm sorry but my favorite scene was the fuedal Japan version of a drive-by. That was hysterical. "I'll just sit here and watch you guys fumble with your bows and aim at me. Oh and Hiro please,please,please don't use your powers to freeze time."

JUSTICE SOCIETY OF AMERICA - Sep 30, 2007 - 07:53pm
Well since Kingdom Come is now one of the 52 universes in the brand spanking new DC multiverse, I doubt that will happen now. Though you may be interested to know that the KC Superman just popped up at the end of the latest JSA.

Possible First Look at the JLA Plot - Sep 26, 2007 - 06:04am
I think it will be interesting to see them skip an "origin" movie in favor of diving right into the action.

HEROES: Four Months Later - Sep 26, 2007 - 05:51am
I'm sure when they do "4 Months Ago" episode we'll see what happend with Nathan & Peter, plus hopefully the details of Matt's divorce and apparent adoption / guardianship of Molly . Do I remember correctly that they are living with Mohinder now ? We'll see Nikkii and Micha next week. As for the older generation, is Claude a part of that group ?

TRANSFORMERS 2 Has a Roll Out Date - Sep 25, 2007 - 06:19am
PS - I'm still waiting for a Gobots movie now.

TRANSFORMERS 2 Has a Roll Out Date - Sep 25, 2007 - 06:17am
Bah to hell with Starscream. At least he was in it, where the hell was Soundwave ? The public demands Soundwave in Transformers 2, he's the real Darth Vader of Transformers. People love him way more than Starscream (who was never more than Megatrons b***h).

Dillahunt Mysterious in SARAH CONNER CHRONICLES - Sep 24, 2007 - 06:05am
I don't think they are acknowledging T3 at all.

Premiere Week - Sep 23, 2007 - 08:05am
Jaime doesn't have a daughter, it's her kid sister. Your right though it did feel rushed. I saw Journeyman and it was pretty good. Definitely a Quantam Leap feel, just no Sam popping up.

EUREKA: Maneater - Sep 21, 2007 - 06:34am
I was the same way with the obvious hormone shot red herring. I actually figured out what the real cause was when he stumbled on to it. In fact I couldn't believe he would pick up the skull that was resting in a strange substance (as well as covered in same powder). I mean c'mon hasn't he worked in Eureka for over a year now ? Shouldn't he know better by now ? I realise he was already affected by that point, but still feel he was careless by doing that.(Especially since he didn't know it yet)

Pitt & Norton Reunite For STATE OF PLAY - Sep 12, 2007 - 06:00am
You know, I still have never seen Fight Club. For some reason nobody would talk about it.

More Mutants in WOLVERINE? - Sep 11, 2007 - 06:26am
My bet is it's Dazzler.

Fifth Season of DR. WHO Delayed to 2010 - Sep 05, 2007 - 07:06am
Man what wasted opportunity. They could have gotten Paul McGann and done a season of "lost" episodes of the 8th Dr. Maybe even used it to set up some storylines for the 5th season.

EUREKA: E=MC...? - Aug 30, 2007 - 06:46am
I figured that Henry was just watching ECW on Sci-fi, and that made me laugh. I didn't like or dislike the the new guy, I don't think we'll see him again. You gotta give props to the cuff's use at the end of the show, I found it predictable but still pretty funny. The remote scene was interesting to me cause it looked like Carter wasn't going to give it to him until the guy said he wanted to watch the baseball game Looked like Carter was hooking up a fellow fan.

Stephen Sommers Back on G.I JOE - Aug 24, 2007 - 05:40am
I want my Gobots movie now. C'mon ride the Transformers coattails.

Anti-Religion Not in GOLDEN COMPASS - Aug 21, 2007 - 05:54am
On another note, now I have a new series of books to read. I never even heard of them before, so some good has come of this.

Anti-Religion Not in GOLDEN COMPASS - Aug 21, 2007 - 05:52am
So does this mean now that any movies based on books that have references to catholicism, will have those refrences removed as well ?

Kristen Bell Pivotal in HEROES - Aug 20, 2007 - 05:47am
Another big ol' "YAY" to this news. Also a hearty "Well Done" :)

PUNISHER 2 Gets A New Title & Start Date - Aug 10, 2007 - 06:16am
I loved him in 'Rome'. I hope he does well with this, I think he can capablely handle the action and acting required.

Michael Bay Talks TRANSFORMERS & Future - Jul 06, 2007 - 09:34pm
Enough of this...bring on TRANSFORMERS 2: GLEAMING THE CUBE Oh Yeah, almost forgot... SOUNDWAVE LIVES !!!!!!!

Michael Bay Talks TRANSFORMERS & Future - Jul 06, 2007 - 06:15am
Gotta side with BsimsBam7, there will be plenty of Starscream in the sequel. He wasn't the only Decepticon that could setup menace. I thought Blackout did an excellent job doing it. I also thought Blockade did a nice job of menacing Sam. They were clearly villains to me. I get that Starscream is the favorite for some people, but c'mon everyone knows that the Darth Vader of Transformers was Soundwave and he wasn't even in the movie. Gotta agree hearing Prime say Autobots... ROLL OUT! was awesome. Note -- I only wish there had been more Bonecrusher before Prime dropped him like a b***h. Note 2 -- If I got any names from the movie wrong then I apologise, I've only seen it once. (I'm going again this weekend)

TRANSFORMERS Has All Time Tuesday Record - Jul 05, 2007 - 06:51am
Put me down as loved it. Gonna see it again this weekend. Just plain fun.

The New Way to Watch TV - Jul 02, 2007 - 06:33am
Wait.!.! Bruce is in Burn Notice, hell I wish I had known that sooner. Gonna have to watch it now. jetpack -- this is the start, Christmas Special first, then Smith & Jones after. 2 1/2 hrs this Friday on Sci-Fi.... look I'm a freaking ad, when do I get my money ? Note -- Not sure why 2 eps of Doctor Who fills 2 1/2 (per Sci-Fi sched) instead of 2 hrs, both eps are 45 min originally I think.

TRANSFORMERS - Jul 02, 2007 - 06:25am
HA!! M.A.S.K. I forgot about that one. It was made for Michael Bay. It's what he's been working towards. Funnily enough both Thundercats and He-man are both in the works, or at least being discuused.

Myles Set In Vampire's MOONLIGHT - Jun 27, 2007 - 08:32am
"Next time I write up an article on her....I'll add the words "....And She's Hot!" at the end of it, almostunbiased. Jarrod Sarafin " I think you let us down by not doing it in the first place. And 'Art School Confidential' is required viewing for Sophia Myles hotness.

TRANSFORMERS Toon Comes Back - Jun 25, 2007 - 06:09am
If you think that's bad wait til you see the art for it....uuuuuhhhhhhhh..., I just threw up a little in my mouth thinking about it. Beast Machines I didn't like, but Beast Wars rocked.... especially when they tied directly into the G1 series.

Peregrym Joins REAPER - Jun 25, 2007 - 06:05am
Conceivably, considering her power, anyone could play the role of Candice.

TRANSFORMERS Debuts Around the Clock - Jun 25, 2007 - 05:57am
"I don’t care what day it comes out on ... I want to know the actual date of the freaking think. I am sitting here thinking "this Monday, the Monday after that, the Monday before the 4th of July … WHAT?" just start putting dates on here instead of days and I will be fine." Ummm maybe this was edited after you posted but... "We already knew that Transformers was getting pushed ahead of its release date to Monday, July 1st."

Tyler Set as HULK Love Interest - May 04, 2007 - 06:44am
Has she been in anything since 'Empire Records' ?

SPIDER-MAN 3 - May 04, 2007 - 06:40am
I think he meant Venom not Carnage.

Heroes: Five Years Gone - May 02, 2007 - 06:18am
I also echo the previous comments. I found nothing wrong with the acting and this to not be filler but quite the opposite in that it advanced Hiro's story. Plus how cool a tease was that for a Peter vs. Sylar smackdown ? Also a cool shot of Nathan/Sylar flying off.

"Heroes: .07%" - Apr 25, 2007 - 06:51am
I don't think there are any continuity errors with Micha. I think we're witnessing the merging of the Jessica / Nikki personas finally. It looked like DL saw this happening. This is probably why she didn't give morphing chick a tongue lashing (though I wish she had also ;} ) Also she didn't rush in to find Micha cause Micha should have been in school. I think Candace picked him up early.

Emma Watson done with "Harry Potter"? - Mar 19, 2007 - 06:28am
From what I've read before, when she says 'move on to other things' she was talking about acting itself. I was under the impression that she didn't want to act anymore.

"Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar" looking for beta testers - Feb 22, 2007 - 07:54am
This is for a stress test weekend. Expect a lotta lag because everyone is allowed in and there will be a lot of overhead so they can analyse the network.

"Heroes: Run" - Feb 15, 2007 - 08:11am
I believe that both Claire's mother and the invisible man are on the list but listed as deceased.

"Manhunter" Cancelled - Jan 18, 2007 - 06:35am
Isn't Manhunter in Birds of Prey now ? Let this title be cancelled and give Gail Simone free reign with her, she'll raise the character to new heights.

Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson and Terence Stamp join "Get Smart" - Jan 17, 2007 - 07:22am
What is this ?!?!?!?!? They have the Rock and he's not playin Hymie the android ? That role was taylor made for him 8)

Welcome Back My Old Friends: Part 2 - Jan 08, 2007 - 06:37am
zayus -- I believe CE is supposed to be in it for at least a couple of episodes. He's going to be mentoring Peter. He has the power to turn invisible and has been able to control it for awhile. I to am looking forward to the Dresden Files. Are the books worth reading and do you think I should wait until the show starts or read them first ?

"Wolverine: #49" - Dec 22, 2006 - 06:29am
"The bible is very,very clear as to the christians non violent approach to any kind of opposition it is scripture black and white even a child could understand" "For every one that curseth his father or his mother shall surely be put to death." "Both parties in adultery shall be executed." "If a man has sex with his father's wife, kill them both." "If a man "lies" with his daughter-in-law, then both must be killed." "If a man has sex with another man, kill them both" This is just after 2 mins of searching, there are lots more. Non-violence ? These aren't exactly advocating hugs & tickles now are they. Enjoy your mythology all you want, but please don't try to make it seem any better than any others please.

"Lost" moving to 10 p.m. - Dec 06, 2006 - 06:28am
Doesn't affect me... I Tivo it anyway and watch it on the weekends.
