Guillermo del Toro isn't directing The Wolf Man, Joe Johnston is. However, it is starring Benicio del Toro (see my new thread for pix).

To be fair, was this at a press event or comic con? She may have known that she was starring in a steaming pile of monkey crap and just didn't want to be there. I can only imagine how it must feel to be in something horrible and know that it's horrible, but have to travel around and smile...

Simple, Sci-Fi got the rights and then went with the lowest bidder.

I'm not sure if anyone cares anymore, but it looks like Flash Gordon has finally been cancelled. Maybe they can put that money to better use...like another season of Eureka?

Well, depending on how old he is, he might be referring to the 1990 film directed by Albert Pyun. Even though this one did have (a strangely Italian) Red Skull in it, it was just as bad as the 2 Reb Brown movies. Actually, it was worse if you go by the IMDB ratings (2.7 vs 3.6 for the other...

I've never seen Brenda Starr or Steel, so I can't judge those. But I actually like Swamp Thing, Punisher, Fantastic Four, and Barbarella. League of Extraordinary Gentlemen wasn't bad even if it had nothing to do with the comic. And I was surprised that I liked Daredevil as much as I did when...

Spanish horror director Carlos Aured passed away on Feb. 3rd at age 71. He directed some of my favorite movies like Horror Rises From The Tomb, Curse Of The Devil, and Vengeance of the Mummy (the best mummy movie ever made). :(

There was The Legend Of Calamity Jane series from the late 90s (anyone else remember it?). It was pretty cool (and Batman: TAS inspired), but it didn't last too long. And don't forget the Jonah Hex episode of Batman.

Okay, I've got it now. It's was just a little confusing for me going from the set levels and abilites of most games to the "you need to buy everything" format of M&M. Thanks for all the help, everybody. :cool:

Okay, I see what you mean. Thanks. I'm a little confuse on the math (how you got the 24pp cost). The way I'm reading the rules is: A Blast 5 at 2pp/rank would be 10pp, Dynamic feat 2pp, Dynamic AP Deflect 2pp, and AP Dazzle 1pp for 15 pp.

I have the M&M 2nd Ed and I don't see a listing for "container". But, reading the AP section of the feats, it does look like you are right that the feats don't add to the cost of the AP. What I was wondering was, since I'm using the same thing to strike or paralyze (i.e., my fist), if that...

I've never really gotten a chance to play M&M (I was involved in 2 play-by-post games that ended before they even really began), but I do enjoy messing around and creating PCs. Anyway, I'm having a little trouble understanding how Alternate Powers work. I'm working on a wire-fu kung-fu...

I remember when Knowles appeared on some talk show years ago and ripped apart the live-action Grinch movie. He said Ron Howard wasn't good enough to direct anything more than TV, he criticized the acting, script, etc.. Then he was invited to a studio party and now he loves the film! I don't...

I thought the first episode was pretty good. Unfortunately, I didn't know they were airing two in a row when I set my Tivo, so I missed the second one. I liked it much better than The Batman and Legion. BTW, is it just me or did the Vulture in his business suit look like Ivan, one of the...

Well, it's like BB in that this could be the comics' Witchblade in the future. However, the show isn't as sci-fi as BB. It's the near future, not "flying car future". Just so you don't go in expecting tech like The Fiftlh Element. It's actually closer to, say, Ghost In The Shell.

If Batman fought evil robots while nearly naked, then yes, yes it is. ;)

Spidey was good, but I regret most of my '90s comic purchases. I look back and can't remember what I liked about most of them. Then again, I was a teenager for half of the '90s, so I have an excuse for being dumb. ;)

The anime is currently running on Friday nights on IFC (Ch 550 if you have Direct TV). It's okay. I'm watching it, but I wouldn't buy it or watch it again. It's set in the near future Japan after some kind of disaster in Tokyo, and the heroine is named Masane. She has amnesia. She also...

Every time I open my closet and see that box full of Marvel 2099 comics. :\
