Oh man...I LOVE RAD. I have the soundtrack. Evidently Talia shire owns the film and I don't think she has a CLUE as to what to do with it.

Smallville: Phantom - May 21, 2007 - 11:18am
that series finale was AWESOME! I've come to realize that this is just a different universe, it's not the same as the comic books and I got to tell you, in a lot of ways it's better. Supes has been a fun character but, to me, in the comic books he's a bit unmanageable, unrelateable (sp?). They've done a grand job, especially in the past couple years of bringing in the whole of the DC universe and move Clark to a arena where he can step into the role as Superman. I love it. And I love Chloe. I'll be pissed if she is dead. But story wise she's the expendable one, her and Lionel. Lois is not. They've done a great job (and leaves me shaking my head that they don't do it more) creating a cool tension between Clark and Her. A banter that is much better than Clark hiding out as some dunce behind glasses. I'd love to see that love story fleshed out and lana dropped to the way side... Bizarro was cool. They've always veered away from the traditional form of villains, mxypltyx anyone? Anyways, I love it. I can't wait for it to return in the fall.

"Lost: Enter 77" - Mar 09, 2007 - 12:21pm
No way should it get an A let alone a A+. I mean it was okay, better than most shows out there but in the skein of the actual "lost" shows it was hardly that good. Locke WAS out of character. He's not stupid but he was acting like it. and the Sayid flashback was short, ill conceived. They tried to shove a bunch of stuff in it like the subplot with the ping pong game (which I liked) but that along with the flashbacks and the plot, that meant nothing (because can we really trust the eye patch guy at all?). Also, the flashback shows that Sayid had come to some "humanity" from his former ways BUT we've already seen him torture a couple of people since he's been on the island, so really he was acting out of character as well...

"Heroes" getting major changes? - Mar 02, 2007 - 12:04pm
great frakin show! I hope that there is a continuing hero though like Jack Bauer (peter peter peter) who strings it all together, but who can say. I'm glad that they aren't going to just carry it on ala LOST that would drive me nuts

2007 Oscar Winners - Feb 27, 2007 - 12:12pm
I knew that Scorcese was going to win when the THREE came out. Is it just me or did George look like he was going to bullfrong and his waddle was going to inflate? Eddie I think should have won, just because it would have made for a funny speech. Ellen did a great job I thought, but it's still so dang long!

Aaron Eckhart joins "The Dark Knight" - Feb 16, 2007 - 11:05am
I think this guy is a pretty great actor, so I'm pumped to see what Nolan is going to do with the character. I don't mind the idea of Black or white playing a role, these are all "alternative" Universes to the comic anyways. But Billy Dee as Harvey dent was weird insomuch that they didn't keep him as Harvey dent and replaced him with Tommy Lee Jones later on...strange

LOST/Heroes: A Commentary - Feb 12, 2007 - 06:50pm
I agree. republish this article in season three of Heroes and see what we think. Right now Heroes is great, but it's where they take us that really shows the guts of the show. Alias was great....right until the post 2 and 1/2 year mark and the subsequent episodes after that almost destroyed what had gone before. I'm hoping studios will get it into their head that longevity doesn't always equal good, nor more prosperous. Good will and brand recognition (in a good light) will outshine syndication monies in the end (IMHO)

"LOST: Not in Portland" - Feb 09, 2007 - 06:30pm
I'm with ultrazilla. It's just getting tedious especially with 24 or Heroes. And speaking of which I find myself pissed at the characters on lost and I can only account for the feelings from watching 24. I keep thinking "Start killing people!!!" I mean really. You don't kill anyone they'll come after you, and if anyone deserves to meet Mr. Reaper it's the others

Shawn Levy to direct "The Flash" - Feb 05, 2007 - 06:57pm
Well maybe it'll turn out alright. I actually liked Night at the Museum and Cheaper by the dozen was tolderable. By far not the best movies in the world, but whatever. As far as Superman Returns....lame. Talk about taking a character out of continuity. I don't think it was the way they should have went, not after so many years without a superman movie. AND Anytime you put a kid...let alone a superkid..in a movie, it's lame. lamelamelame. It's what sequels do when their are no ideas left.

I can't disagree with this column more "The problem is that I remember that first season and the second, the good episodes of the show, and I hold out hope that the creators might get back to that level of quality at some point" WHAAATTTT!!!??? the first few seasons were some of the most repetitive melodrama I've ever seen. Weekly Krypto persons causing havoc, and the non emotional lana anchoring some sort of love story...boooo! It was around the second half of the 4th season when things started hopping. I was so opposed to the introduction of Lois to the point where I stopped watching the show. It was a year and a half later when people were telling me how good it was that I picked it up. They were right. Introducing Lois to Clark with a cynical banter that somewhat betrays their attraction is awesome. It's no longer Lois looking at Clark like a buffoon, but as a square and SHE is the mighty one. It's hilarious, and Erica has become the role. Allison Mack is a goddess. But they have since then moved the mythology to a point where they could geniunely move the show into a Superman show. He's grown into his powers, come across the Justice League (to a degree) fought Zod, Brainiac, and escaped from the phantom zone. The Daily Planet is huge and Metropolis plays more of a role than smallville does. the only thing that bothered me about this episode was that it somewhat resucitated the Clark/Lana story, when I could care less. How can I invest in a love story that we ALL know fails?

Emily Blunt in "The Dark Knight"? - Feb 02, 2007 - 12:21pm
Bah, new girl. You don't need Dawes, especially because Joey Potter...errr Mrs. Cruise really didn't do much for me in the first film. We've established she's not the romantic interest, so let's make one. two words...Vickie...Vale.

24 is grand, grand entertainment. But this season there seems to be a lack of body count (aside from the atomic blast). I mean body count by Jack that is ;) I need some bad assery soon! Plus alot of people, ALOT of people wait for the dvd of 24 because it's a blast to watch straight through, so the Neilsens (may they be damned) only tell a small part of the story. When all is said and done we'll see what happens with dvd sales PLUS...Heroes has jsut started, 24 is in it's what season? We'll see about heroes ratings if they can make it that long (I hope they do)

Warner Bros. acquires another "Wonder Woman" script - Feb 01, 2007 - 01:24pm
I think it's an almost impossible task to make a wonderwoman story, but if there is someone that is going to pull it off, it's Joss. I hope nothings wrong cuz I'd love to see him do this, and well, direct it as well. Here's to hoping!

Unraveling Marvel’s Secret Wars - Jan 23, 2007 - 03:48pm
Yeah there were variations, but these had those holographic shields remember? I loved those. This just seemed to be the golden age of action figures, between those and the superpowers I had wayyyyy too much fun. And I liked Secret Wars the comic. I know people bash it, but it was just awesome in my eyes and still is. What other comic still has residual effects from things that have happened in it? (ala black spidey/venom/carnage)

"The Dresden Files: Birds of a Feather" - Jan 23, 2007 - 03:44pm
I dug it. There's not much genre entertainment, and although it's aggravating when things stray from source material, I've never read the source material sooo.... Does Dresden have that big of a fan base that messing with the character is going to cause as big a backlash as it would messing with Spider man or a Iconic comic hero? I don't know, I'm asking. Otherwise I dig it. The ending was wrapped up reallllly quick and I'd love to see more of Dresden actually using his powers but...still pretty fun

Love the show. Dragon...eh, nevermind not worth commenting on. As for the person not liking Chloe, don't worry she grows on you. I wanted her deeeaaadd when she first showed up, but keep watching. What I love about the show is that it's very much like a tom Clancy serial. And I wouldn't be surprised if they killed off Jack at some point. Maybe not this season but it's called 24, not Jack Bauer.

I actually liked the movie more than the book. I think the first time I saw it was some Sunday afternoon movie matinee. Pretty cool stuff. Strange Brew almost had me pee'ing my pants the first time I saw it...seriously. Three Amigos, Oh man, the singing bush, come on it's great. But Sleepaway Camp. That ending can never be unseen. And for that it truly is a horror movie

Politics in Comics or The Follies of Didacticism - Nov 30, 2006 - 07:25pm
Yeah I'm a Christian, and what's funny is, I see my faith being trampled on all over the place. This whole world is on an antagonistic bent, there is an opposing viewpoint to everything. What's funny to me is people telling people that believe in the concept of "right" and "wrong" that they are wrong, is hysterical just in it's concept. I don't mind comics being Metaphors for stuff going on. I believe what I believe and it SHOULD be able to stand up to scrutiny by me and by people opposing it. That being said, it does feel like the "voice" used in comics is truly one sided at times. IMHO

Is this supposed to be canonical? I read it, and there were elements I liked, but mostly I was annoyed by it. the ending (if it can be construed as that) felt mystifying and disappointing. Nothing solved. And btw, what's the deal with Robin getting his butt handed to him. This kid is not only trained by Bats but Shiva as well, you'd think he'd have some fighting chops.

"The Buffy Files: Chapter 6" - Nov 08, 2006 - 08:24am
I was going to say that. I love this season though watching it was rather depressing when it was airing. But afterwards you see a much more adult buffy. You are right in likening it to the rise and fall of the Phoenix, never thought of that I guess. This of course is the last great season in my estimation. 7 is only good for Andrew and it's set up for Angel season 5 (angel ends up being a better show actually)

I dunno about Seven Soldiers, I totally get what you are saying, but not being able to tell a story to a degree that your audience understands it seems to be a failure in storytelling. I had gotten them for awhile, but then delays and the fact that they made no sense (though they were somewhat a reimaginging of characters ie: Mister Miracle) left me wanting to keep the money for better titles. Green Lantern is gone from my list now and you guys are right about 52, wth is going on?

Man I haven't read anything I've liked from Weiss or Hickman since Chronicles and Legends And Salvatore just seems to be retreading on his stuff...but it's still better than most. People should check out his "Highwayman" book which is fairly cool, or the Cleric Quintet. What should I read next people, what should I read next?

Have you “LOST” interest? - Nov 06, 2006 - 12:55pm
What what whattt! Lastonelives, are you watching Battlestar Galactica? It is pretty much the best show on television, what do you think is better? As far as LOST, this season whoops buttock over last year, I think. Though LOST drives me unbelievably insane, just because of all the questions it causes, and the fact I feel like they'll never get around to answering them to a degree that is satisfactory. But I can hope can't I? They should of put a cap on this show like "it'll go for 5 years and then stop". Knowing that would keep people involved. As long as they see an end point. Sorta like 24. You know that in 24 hours it's done, end of story.

"The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause" - Nov 03, 2006 - 12:45pm
Am I the only one that had no idea they were even making a third. I like Tim Allen, he makes some great "For the Family" fare. I'm amazed however no one has taken him and tried to do some Jimmy Stewart type roles for him ala Mr. Smith Goes to Washington or It's a Wonderful Life

"National Treasure 2" Update - Nov 02, 2006 - 06:22pm
Macgyver already did that bdd :) I really liked the first one, it's the only close to Indy that I've seen in a long time. Here's hoping the second one is as fun and informative as the first.

Re imagining of a somewhat current film with the same actors??? Does anything sound lamer? Just do a sequel for goodness sake!

"The Buffy Files: Chapter 4" - Nov 02, 2006 - 06:16pm
Season 4 was cool! This was the beachhead for what would be some of the greatest television. This was the Stage which all the dawn, chip in the head spike, and crazy eps (ala once more with feeling), got to be prepped for take off.

Great movie that twists your stomach into a horrible knot at the end. Beware, we are talking "Happiness" type stomach churning

Thank You for Not Smoking - Nov 02, 2006 - 01:51pm
Eh I dig the new design, don't know the real reason behind it. I mean you are distancing yourself from the brand of "Cinescape" aren't you? Anywhoo. Marvel blows cheese right now, IMHO. Mainly because they've futzed up continuity so much. I mean I'm enjoying the Civil War line, but how do you come back to Status quo afterwards. Can you EVER get back to where we all don't know that Peter Parker is now Spiderman. It seems when this is all said and done the conflict will disappear and they will have to reboot...again. *sigh* And this no smoking shizzle is lame, just like Q's decision not to bring anyone back from the dead.

This Week's Premieres in Preview - Oct 02, 2006 - 12:38pm
bah! Stargate is fun. It's not character driven but plot driven fare of the style of the original StarTrek. Battlestar is AWESOME! So I'm positively giddy at it's re entrance into television land, though I hate the fact the seasons are so flippin short and the DVD's are so flippin costly (I should have used "frakkin). And Veronica Mars OOhhhh I swoon. She is after all my wife (okay maybe I'm making that up), and the show is stupendous, STUPENDOUS I SAY (even though there a few qualms with last season. It got somewhat convoluted and how many red herrings are there (When you hear the words "red Herring" does it make anyone think of Tim Curry in Clue?)? And lastly the freakin annoying show called Lost. I love it to a degree of hate. I want to start a petition to get it cancelled merely for the fact I want to see the end and know what the Frak (hah did it!) is going on! Shooot man, that show is going the way of Twin Peaks and by the end did anyone care? Man I love the fall!

CIVIL WAR - Sep 29, 2006 - 04:36pm
Can we say backfire? I love the story, and I was one of those people that didn't even want to pick it up, I mean Peter Parker showing his face? Whaaaat!!!? But the story is well written. The problem I see is that this whole thing is writing Marvel into a corner. We will most likely get a infinity crisis ending that reboots continuity, but wait, they sorta did that in Marvel a couple years ago...wait they didn't, or did they? Marvel hasn't kept good continuity since they went bankrupt late 90's. The only ones that seemed to not have been effected was Xmen but there are so many of those titles my brain fries when going to the comic store on Wed. Bottom line, love the story, but like Twin Peaks, or Lost they are writing themselves into a corner. www.spacekicker.com
