@ TM2-Megatron	:	(04 December 2019 - 10:22 PM) Still not the weirdest thing a Nic Cage character has done in a film
@ TheMightyMol...	:	(04 December 2019 - 04:00 PM) Couldn't be worse than him pissing fire as Ghost Rider.
@ Rycochet	:	(04 December 2019 - 03:38 PM) The Tim Burton Superman Movie is the DC movie we deserve. It would have Nic Cage in a technosuit punching polarbears.
@ Paladin	:	(04 December 2019 - 02:59 PM) Wonder Woman was great. Shazam was amazing. Aquaman... exists.
@ RichardT1977	:	(04 December 2019 - 01:54 PM) TBF, Aquaman and Shazam! were pretty good.
@ TheMightyMol...	:	(04 December 2019 - 01:00 PM) Not a difficult feat.
@ Benbot	:	(04 December 2019 - 11:50 AM) You just put more effort into telling a compelling story than all of WB's execs.
@ Cybersnark	:	(04 December 2019 - 11:41 AM) Cue the flashback to Jonathan, reassuring a terrified child: "What you are is never as important as who you are." Cue Superman's response to Brainiac: "I already know who I am."John Williams fanfare plays
@ Cybersnark	:	(04 December 2019 - 11:38 AM) I don't think we even really need to see Krypton. I'd start with Clark growing up in Kansas, thinking he's normal, and follow him through the development of his powers. There've been enough alternate takes on Krypton that it could actually work as a mystery; is this the pre-Crisis utopia, the sterile science world, or the relic of a fallen empire? Brainiac was there, and he tempts Clark with the knowledge of what he really is.
@ Otaku	:	(04 December 2019 - 11:12 AM) First, a Krypton film, ending with baby Kal-El being found on Earth. Then Supe's early career film, establishing his values... and if Jonothan Kent needs to die, it happens because of something like a heart attack while Clark is savnig folks on the other side of the world. After we know Clark minimizes property damage and never kills, have Zod & Company show up and force him to make tough choices.
@ Otaku	:	(04 December 2019 - 11:07 AM) Man of Steel seems like someone came up with a Superman trilogy and then the execs said "We've got to catch up to Marvel, make it one film!". I don't mean that based on the film's actual pacing, but because various story beats make more sense to me if they weren't all squished together.
@ Cybersnark	:	(03 December 2019 - 07:44 PM) I've been wanting to write a Superman movie trilogy for years; "Man of Steel" (featuring a Terminator-like Brainiac) was going to be first, with "Last Son of Krypton" (featuring the Eradicator) as the sequel and "Man of Tomorrow" (in which Luthor makes his face-heel turn) as the conclusion. Thanks to Snyder I have to re-arrange my titles.
@ Nevermore	:	(03 December 2019 - 06:15 PM) I still wish "Man of Steel" had instead been an adaptation of both the John Byrne miniseries of the same name and the Jeph Loeb/Tim Sale miniseries "Superman For All Seasons".
@ SHIELD Agent 47	:	(03 December 2019 - 04:42 PM) A take I just read: Man of Steel is shot with such a lack of lighting that it is easier to discern what is going on in a porn film.
@ Maximus Ambus	:	(03 December 2019 - 12:20 PM) Making Soylant is harder then it looks, it's not like the movies, you have to keep whacking and hacking at the ingredient, it'll scream and fight, maybe bite but eventually it will go down.
@ Paladin	:	(03 December 2019 - 11:48 AM) varies from person to person.
@ Benbot	:	(03 December 2019 - 11:34 AM) It's an acquired taste
@ CORVUS	:	(03 December 2019 - 11:17 AM) Soylent? Its pretty awful.
@ unluckiness	:	(03 December 2019 - 02:49 AM) Depends on your denomination of Christianity
@ Patch	:	(02 December 2019 - 05:52 PM) @Benbot Do they have a soy-free version? Like maybe just "Lent?"
@ Maximus Ambus	:	(02 December 2019 - 02:03 PM) Just occurred to me 'Autobot' Megatron happened in Target 2006.
@ Benbot	:	(02 December 2019 - 11:48 AM) have you tried Soylent? It's pretty good! https://soylent.com/
@ Paladin	:	(02 December 2019 - 10:01 AM) i prefer free-range human usually. pain in the ass to hunt though...
@ TheMightyMol...	:	(02 December 2019 - 09:42 AM) If your human is all bones, you may have purchased a skeleton by accident. Contact your grocer to inquire about exhange policies.
@ Maximus Ambus	:	(02 December 2019 - 09:31 AM) Vegans are categorised as human therefore just fall under Soylant, they are usually all bones.
@ wonko the sane?	:	(01 December 2019 - 04:47 PM) Cause... that latter one is technically all burgers anyway.
@ wonko the sane?	:	(01 December 2019 - 04:46 PM) So... a burger made without meat, or a burger made with the meat taken from a vegan?
@ Maximus Ambus	:	(01 December 2019 - 04:22 PM) I had a vegan burger last week, this week I'll give a vegan steak a shot.
@ wonko the sane?	:	(30 November 2019 - 12:37 PM) a proper paradox would have broken the board. Nice try though.
@ Maximus Ambus	:	(30 November 2019 - 01:47 AM) This shout is empty.
@ Tm_Silverclaw	:	(30 November 2019 - 12:01 AM) I've got the admit. tubi tv is great. It's got a lot of stuff.. Including Super Sentai.
@ Steevy Maximus	:	(29 November 2019 - 10:35 PM) There is frankly no better place to (legally) find schlock on the internet for free than Tubi TV
@ Steevy Maximus	:	(29 November 2019 - 10:33 PM) It's got all the graphic violence and gratuitous nudity a late 80s OVA should have.
@ Steevy Maximus	:	(29 November 2019 - 10:32 PM) Available for free with ads on Tubi TV.
@ Steevy Maximus	:	(29 November 2019 - 10:32 PM) It's "Goku: Midnight Eye". Originally produced in the late 80s, it apparently wasn't dubbed until the late 90s given Steve Blum was the lead.
@ wonko the sane?	:	(29 November 2019 - 06:38 PM) The description makes it sound like some high grade, mid 80's shlock. Which, frankly, is my groove.
@ TheMightyMol...	:	(29 November 2019 - 12:37 PM) Was wondering how long it would take someone to ask.
@ wonko the sane?	:	(29 November 2019 - 09:58 AM) okay, it's been like two days so far: what anime is this, cause I'm dying to know.
@ Steevy Maximus	:	(27 November 2019 - 09:23 PM) You know you're in for a good time when an old anime starts with a crime lord uses roller skates in his cybernetic legs to skate down the side of the building, launches to a dock and into a getaway boat.
@ Pinkcolliebot	:	(26 November 2019 - 03:55 PM) Hey Everyone I'm Making The TF Roll Out Short "Gotta Go Fast!"
@ Benbot	:	(26 November 2019 - 12:52 PM) That's what I was hoping for. But here I am, at work the following day.
@ wonko the sane?	:	(26 November 2019 - 12:29 PM) You say "die in bed" and I'm thinking "why is that a problem?".
@ fourteenwings	:	(26 November 2019 - 07:06 AM) If you don't get out of bed ever your muscles will lock in super-uncomfortable ways and you may get blood clots
@ MEDdMI	:	(25 November 2019 - 08:53 PM) You did nothing, and so rocks fall down and you die.
@ TheMightyMol...	:	(25 November 2019 - 08:35 PM) But that's not you doing something, that's something being done to you.
@ MEDdMI	:	(25 November 2019 - 08:28 PM) Unless a meteor crashes down on your bed while you're in it.
@ wonko the sane?	:	(25 November 2019 - 07:08 PM) I've been trying for the last few hours to find an argument to counter this... and I can't do it.
@ TheMightyMol...	:	(25 November 2019 - 03:32 PM) The most dangerous thing you can do is get out of bed in the morning. Everything else that happens is a consequence of that one terrible, terrible decision.
@ wonko the sane?	:	(25 November 2019 - 03:28 PM) Driving, by itself, is dangerous. Anything done to compromise the concentration of the pilot just makes things worse.
@ Benbot	:	(25 November 2019 - 12:46 PM) Actually, I think you could make a reasonable argument for saying driving with glasses is dangerous. That is, more dangerous than driving with contacts or perfect vision. You have poor peripheral vision with glasses.

That Ben Reilly is nice. Too bad I already sold most of my Marvel Legends.

Sorry, Hasbro, I gave you 3 waves to make some figures I care about but you blew it.

While I'm less than thrilled with the news of yet another Human Torch, that certainly looks like the best one ever. Seriously, that looks awesome.

Yay! I can finally replace my Movie Human Torch with something more comic-y!

Glad to see them reissue Kang, he'll go great with the Young Avenger set.

I like Guardian and the modern Crossbones too. Not a bad wave.

...wait, Walmart exclusive? Crap in a hat.

Oh hey! Theres a new classic armor Ironman coming out in a two pack AND a Sharon Carter figure in another twopack! I know exactly how I'm going to display her and Cap on my shelf.

I'm so glad now that I never bought that Crappy TB Stealth Iron Man. This blows it out of the water, and for a portion of the cost. HML just keep getting better. Now, just give me a decent Spiderman 2099 and I will be done with Spidey.

>_< I mean seriously wtf, no Holocaust wave, no Red Hulk wave...

and here I thought going to hasbro would make this jive MORE available... what a mess.

AND WHY IS Aries the BAF? Isn't he like just average roid-oversized ?

I wish those SHIED guys were in A BOX SET...

That sucks about ML and Canada. Maybe someone on the board can hook you up?

As for Sunfire, yeah, he's nice. I'm glad they decided to make him translucent. Now if they would just give me AOA Iceman, Apocalypse and Blink....

So wait.

Is it Scarlet Spider, or Ben Reilly Spider-man? O_o

"Disabled people don’t have special needs. We have very reasonable human needs. Our needs include freedom from abuse, violence, and mistreatment, the right to autonomy and self-direction, the right to represent ourselves, equal opportunity for education and employment, the right to accommodation, and societal inclusion and acceptance.

The need for accommodation isn’t a “special need”. It’s a basic human right. It’s a leveling of the playing field that allows us the same opportunities and chances as non-disabled people."

The latter. Although, with a different paint scheme and some slight mods, they could give us Scarlet Spider as well.
