I feel sorry for Chow Yun-Fat. Why man, why?

The only comic that I've ever seen held up as widely appealing to women is "Love and Rockets". Other than that it's hard to really point to any other titles that women consistently dig (to my knowledge anyway). I'm sure there are women who like X-men, or Batman, or Spider-Man, but I somehow...

No argument, just discussion. ;) (well-said, BTW)

I'm not really disagreeing. I'm sure Hollywood was testing the waters of the super hero genre with Blade, and its success opened things back up for comic movies. I'm just saying that I doubt most of the people who went to see it knew it was based on a comic book. If I can amend my previous...

Just because I'm bored: Blade (1998) X-Men (2000) Spider-Man (2002) While the argument could be made that Blade kicked in the doors for comic book movies, how many people knew he was a comic book character at the time? Was he even in a monthly series then? I'm pretty sure his series was dead...

I don't think he took it to that extent, but I don't think he has anything to worry about either. I doubt you'll see him working for someone he doesn't want to work for again.

Yeah. And then DC bought that company and he found himself working for them again, much to his displeasure. I believe he's extricated himself once more though.

My interest in anime has waned lately, but I've enjoyed the following: Patlabor 2 (pretty cool politcal/terrorism plot, good characterization, looks fantastic, and has mechas) Record of Lodoss War (though not as good as I remembered originally) Anything by Hayao Miyazaki Ghost in the Shell...

His stance seems more openly hostile than it was before. I read an interview with him a while ago where he seemed more indifferent to the movies based on his work, and even mentioned he might see From Hell at some point. Not sure why he's "spitting venom" on them now, but we must remember that...

They're all getting slaughtered by the critics, but if I had to choose one I'd go with Righteous Kill. I could watch De Niro and Pacino read the phonebook and be entertained, I think.

Ohhhh...Babylon AD. I thought this was about Babylon 5 . Carry on. ;)

Yeah. Sweet Amber is cool too. :)

Not too shabby. Definitely head and shoulders above St Anger.

I don't really care enough to be frustrated, just a little confused. The trailer actually looks pretty cool.

But don't you go in with the expectations that come along with that recognition? I've never played the game, but if I went to see the movie without first viewing the trailer, I would have been very confused about the direction they took with the story. I'm not saying the movie won't be good, I'm...

Then why bother basing it off the game in the first place? Why not just create something entirely new?

Ok, so it's not just my imagination that the angels/devils aren't in the video game then? From what I saw, it was a basic crime/noir type game. I wonder why they felt the need to make it into Constantine Redux?

Sir, you just made my day.

Whew, thanks. I was wondering how I was going to get my hands on one if there were only 1000 printed!

Is this based off the video game? I recall watching a friend play the first one, but I never played them myself. Did they have the religious element in them too, or is this movie unrelated to them?
