Maybe this is my non-geeky side showing, but is Terminator, Robocop, and Hancock based off of some graphic novel I'm unaware of? If not, is this site's criteria for being a comic book movie less about being based off actual comic books and more sci-fi? I mean, I know, Robocop and Terminator have been in comics, but I thought they were all, you know, after the initial movie.

That was perfect. Not overly sappy, sentimental when it needed to be, funny still. It worked perfectly to me. Everything ended like I wanted it to, and I'm glad they did what they did with JD's "home movies" thing to wrap up some possible thoughts on his future. Excellent, excellent. Can't even discuss it any more thoroughly.

1. Cyclops 2. Beast 3. Captain American (Steve Rogers) 4. Iron Man 5. Spider-Man 6. Magneto 7. Hawkeye (Clint Barton) 8. Silver Surfer 9. Wolverine 10. Deadpool

And for me, the second episode was excellent. I was seriously not expecting that goodness.

Good God I can't stand John Malkovich. The way he acts, the way he talks, nothing. He has never, ever, done anything for me. He distracted me in Con Air, he bored me in Shadow of the Vampire, and while I can admit he had a creepy glare in his eye, he just does nothing but make me change the channel.

"Angel's Son" by Sevendust, dedicated to the late Lynn Strait of Snot. I know there's a whole album of Snot dedications with lots of great singers on there, but this was the biggest one from that album.

MTV Article: 50 won't stop making solo records. Didn't see this, thought I'd post it. Apparently, even if Kanye outsells him, he won't stop making albums. Also calls Kanye a worker bee and says he's a boss of the game. Usual shit, really.

Bernard Fanning's "The Thrill Is Gone". Fantastic track.

Chris Cornell did a nice acoustic live in Sweden CD in general...as well as covering a nice bluesy "Billie Jean". I highly recommend it.

Wasn't it the other way around? I thought Love wanted it released and that was the big problem, since she (or somebody...fuck I forget) owned a majority of the estate, she wanted to release it.

I seem to be still having a hard time finding good Shannon Ward/Lucy Furr pics...does anyone have any?

I seem to be having a problem getting good Shannon Ward/Lucy pics...does anybody have any? I searched the topic, but didn't seem to turn up anything. And, please...no Daffney shots. I'd like her to be relatively serious.

So...is i too much to hope this character is related in some way to his Machete from Spy Kids? Not that I've seen any Spy Kids flicks, but I saw the shit Machete does in this trailer...and somebody like that needs to be around those kids.

I couldn't find it in the search, but I'm a huge fan of the over-the-top indulgence of Tool's "No Quarter" cover.

Add me to the Undressed, Yes Dear, and SportsNight lists. Oh, and what about HBO's Oz? I never could find a soul who liked it as much as I did around here. Same for FX's Over There.

I'm sure this is also a very obvious one, but Bullet for My Valentine's cover of "Welcome Home (Sanitarium)" is excellent. I enjoyed... AFI's "Head Like A Hole" Deftone's "The Chauffeur" (hed) PE's "Sabbra Cadabra" RA's "Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic" Obviously Disturbed's "Shout 2000" and "Land Of Confusion" dope's "You Spin Me Round (Like A Record)" Velvet Revolver's "Money" Life Of Agony's "Don't You (Forget About Me)" ...and to a lesser extent (for rocking's sake), Oasis' "Helter Skelter".

I really like Young Buck, Lloyd Banks, and Game. The downside to really the entire rap industry is 50. I mean...he's got this real BSB rap thing down pat...it's what suburban white boys and foreigners think hip hop is all about. 50 can't sell without beef. Period. He will never, ever, make a rap record and pull it off without beef. It's the only way he thinks he can keep in touch with the streets.

Well...my last concert was a Staind acoustic set in Melbourne, Australia...and my next one is Aerosmith and Motley Crue in Charlotte, North Carolina. No doubt about it, I'm hardcore.

I'm looking for an EWR icon to put in the place of the blue and white window icon. I had one once that was black and gold. Does anyone have any that they could send my way?

While I'm not one to judge the writing and quality of a show solely on the theme music (they can't all be X-Men or Batman:TAS), I get where you're coming from.

To be fair, you can't mention bad Marvel adaptations and not ignore the Generation X gem with Finola Hughes as Emma Frost against Max Headroom. I love The Silver Surfer as both Herald of Galactus, defender of the universe, and any sort of big cosmic epic that he always finds himself in. I never seem to hate how he's written, either. From the Ron Lim run to the robotic Moebius stuff, Surfer is fucking awesome.

I'm still watching and waiting for Battle Toads once again. I don't even think I remember this show besides its title. However, they revamped the Ninja Turtles and made them excellent...so you never know.
