    It was more responding to why all those kryptonian animals were in their own rockets ships - Jor-El was big in to animal testing to perfect his experimental escape pod, who knows how many kryptonian beasties died in the process?

    Krypto was used by Jor-el to test the prototype rocket before he sent baby Kal. Kryptos rocket got knocked off course and wound up on earth 10 years after Kal did. DC told us he was baby Kals pet, which I suppose avoided issues of Jor-Els animal experimentation

    I'd say that within the DC Heroes Supermans intelligence is high end of top 10, but not top 5. He is not as intelligent as Luthor, Batman, Mr Terrific or Ray Palmer, but maybe on par with Cyborg but without the specialist knowledge. Moreover Superman has focussed on Social intelligence as an...

    D&D General What if we gave dragonborn four arms?

    The Mušḫuššu of Mesopatamia is considered one of the earliest 'dragon-like' creatures, its name means Red Snake and its associated with the constellation Hydra. So a scaly animal with hind legs resembling the talons of an eagle, fore limbs like a lion, a long neck and tail, two horns on its...

    Tron: Ares | Official Trailer

    I think the point is that the Tron programmes have finally found a way to exist in the real world (which the franchise has been hinting at since it started) - so Humans are now dealing with real programmes. Jeff is still milking it, so good on him. Leto looks like he could actually be likeable...

    TEAM LAKE - SUBJECT:SHADE-9 - whats around the corner? Shade-9 maintained a cautious pace, avoiding the entangling weeds and slick stone alike, his optics scanning as he tracked the water’s flow, shifts in the current and ripples indicating movement, the glint of light off rock, the fall of...

    D&D General What if we gave dragonborn four arms?

    European heraldry is a very poor source of Dragon canon, in that you get four, two and no legged dragons, some dragons the size of a horse, some with wings, some without and any number of heads

    The comic book version of Mr Terrific (and as he appeared in the Justice League cartoon) was deeply committed to justice and fairplay, acting as a voice of reason and moral compass to his team. This version was a bit more rash in his approach and too ready to kill the kaiju.

    Did Gunn use Superman as a proxy for himself? The punk trope felt like it, hilarious Yeah I seriously didnt like the Kents being presented as yokels, especially when they should be the moral grounding that made Clark the good person he is. I liked the movie much more than I thought I would, it...

    Why do the Actors Matter?

    I think RDJs Tony Stark got a nice story arch from origin to heroic ending, I like that and appreciate that the MCU want to preserve it There are so many characters available to Marvel that sometimes its nice to tell a story then retire that character to make room for someone else. (Yeah...

    Why do the Actors Matter?

    Did they? I didnt see much bitchy, especially considering the former actor was too busy being dead to reprise the roll
