    BattleStar Galactica:Season 3.5--3/25/07--Arc 20 (Season Conclusion)

    The last few episodes didn't do anything for me. It reminded me of my experience with certain comics. I collected the Hulk and Spider-Man titles since I was a kid. At a certain point (just before the Spider-Clone Saga and Heroes Reborn), I began to realize that I was just reading them out of...

    Trinity Blood: any good?

    I'm really enjoying Bleach and Blood Plus seems pretty good from what little I've seen. Lupin The 3rd had 2 boxsets of movies (5 each)released. They're a lot of fun, but skip Secret Of The Twilight Gemini, which is just terrible. And I love the designs and concept of One Piece, but the awful...

    Trinity Blood: any good?

    The series isn't bad, just average. I enjoyed watching it on TV, but I wouldn't pay for it or watch the reruns. And, I may be in the minority, but I liked it better than Trigun, mainly because Trigun did something many other anime do that annoys me; it was a goofy comedy before switching...

    They Killed Cap!

    Normally, I'd dismiss it as nothing more than "The Death of Superman", i.e., a typical comic books story (a hero is "killed", but will eventually return) that got blown out of proportion by the media. However, considering Quesada's run (or should I say "ruin") of Marvel, I don't know what to...

    Buying Anime Stuff Online

    Right Stuf (yes, only one "F") International, at rightstuf.com. When you click on their online catalogue, be sure to check out the weekly specials, closeouts, and other sales. Not too long ago, I got a Giant Robo boxset which also included the two soundtrack CDs for somewhere between $10 to...

    Milk Survey - Please help

    My order of importance: 1. Health/Brand - I'm lactose intolerant, so I can only drink Lactaid milk. It's regular milk, just without lactose. 2. Shelf Placement - I only buy my milk from Wal-Mart because the only other local grocery stores keep their milk in open refrigerators. Normally...

    Undead superheroes

    From Marvel Comics, you have Terror, who starred in a very short-lived series in the 90s called Terror, Inc. His powers were pretty cool. He was immortal, but his body continues to rot, so he needs to replace his body parts, which he does by ripping them off of other people. When he attaches...

    Whedon off Wonder Woman

    As a Raimi fan, I was wondering why he was given such a high profile movie (although I tend to forget that he's been slowly moving into mainstream films with movies like A Simple Plan and The Gift). I think you mentioned the biggest factor yourself: Hercules and Xena. They were insanely...

    Mooninite's close Boston

    Because it wasn't leaking poisonous gas would be my guess. :\ Because nukes aren't that small and that would be idiotic. Yes, it would be. And, I'm guessing that that's why no one ever suggested such a thing.

    Mooninite's close Boston

    Boston isn't as dangerous as Afghanistan. It's just as dangerous as, say, Manhattan, London, or Madrid. Or the Tokyo subway for that matter. Hey, it's just some rolled up newspaper. Just pick it up. It's not like someone would have some kind of poisonous chemicals like sarin in it. That...

    Why they cast Animate Dead on Orville's Corpse?

    This commercial is nightmare fuel. He looks...horrifiying. If anything, it makes me not want to buy the popcorn.

    BSG - Who are the Final Five?

    I agree with nearly everything you said (although I would rule out Laura on the grounds that she had a son, not necessarily for storytelling reasons). However, I'm putting my money on Felix Gaeta. The final 5 seem to be something special and mythic (which is why I suspect that others may...

    Say it Ain't So! (V for Vendetta movie news)

    Which is odd for a Hollywood film, isn't it? :) Although, they did change things. Enough so that I don't really want to watch it (I love the original comic). I'll probably catch it when it airs on TV, but I'm not going to waste money renting it.

    New Adult Swim -- What do you think?

    Toonami just premiered two new series, Prince of Tennis and MAR. I could swear that they only just started last week, but PoT aired "Episode 4" this week and I had no idea what was going on on MAR. Did they air other episodes I missed or did someone screw up at CN?

    Doctor Who: "Army of Ghosts" and "Doomsday" - spoilers

    It was a great set of episodes even though the Cybermen got totally punked (couldn't the 15 million of them have killed at least one Dalek?). Just out of curiosity, whatever happened to the original Cybermen? Are they still around? My experience with the old series is limited to the 4th and...

    Casino Royale - Best 007 movie in years [some spoilers]

    Well, they did have John Cleese as the new Q in the last 2 Bonds. I'm glad they didn't include him in this movie. I thought he was too silly (my general complaint about the last couple of Brosnan films was that they were becoming too Moore-like and goofy). Personally, I wish they would have...

    Do Superheroes Fight Bad Guys Anymore?

    Are you talking about the total number of pages in the book or the numbers of story pages vs ad pages? I mention it because, while I only read a few Marvels (She-Hulk, X-Factor, and the Annihilation mini), I remember reading a review which complained of the number of ads in Marvel comics...

    Pirates vs. Ninjas comic book going to press

    This is from Antarctic Press? I used to collect Ninja High School way back when. I'll have to check this out.

    DirecTV blows! (or maybe not?)

    While Direct TV has made some decisions in the past that I haven't liked, such as dropping Trio (which had some great specials like "Brilliant But Cancelled" and the making of Heaven's Gate), you can't really blame them for what happened to FMC. Apparently, Fox raised their price and Direct TV...

    Hellboy on Cartoon Network

    Okay, this blows. I was originally going to tape this when I realized that I'd probably like it enough to transfer it to DVD-R, so I decided to just record it on my DVD recorder and skip the middle man. Since I knew I was recording it, I decided to do some other stuff that needed to be done...
