I haven't seen when second one will be released in theaters yet, but Kill Bill Vol. 1 is being released to home video in the States on April 13th this year. As far as what will actually be on the disc, that info hasn't been released yet. I work for a video distributor, and I've been keeping my...

As far as 2003 goes I'd definitely have to pick Bad Boys II. I saw it for free and I kept thinking all the way through, "This has got to get better... This has got to get better..." and it never did. That was 2 1/2 hours (TWO AND A HALF HOURS! GAARR!) that I would love to get back.

Freddy Got Fingered One day I will meet Tom Green and then I will punch him in the mouth.

My must-sees include: Justice League Angel The Monday evening comedies on CBS (excluding Yes, Dear.) Adult Swim (pretty much the entire block. I had given up on watching Space Ghost: Coast to Coast for a while there, mainly because I had seen every episode many, many times, but now they're...

I thought that it was a good movie, but certainly not a great one. I thoroughly enjoyed Ewan McGregor's performance, but I found the ending of the film to be mostly unsatisfying. It just didn't strike the right chords with me, I guess. My favorite Tim Burton films are still Sleepy Hollow...

Tom Green did with Freddy Got Fingered. I'm sure of it. That guy's got a good punchin' coming to him if I ever meet him..

Man, I didn't realize that I'd picked up so many TV shows.. I've got: Alias seasons 1 & 2 Angel seasons 1 & 2 (season 3 will be out in February) Aqua Teen Hunger Force seasons 1 & 2 Band of Brothers Buffy seasons 1 through 5 (season 6 will be out in July) Futurama seasons 1 & 2 (season 3 in...

If you dig REH's Conan stories, chances are good that you'll like Karl Edward Wagner's Kane books. The character of Kane seems like a direct crossing of the character of Conan with his arh-nemesis Thoth-Amon. Kane is sword wielding barbarian who was cursed by a god to live forever. To combat...

The ideas and themes on gov't that Heinlein presented in his book are parodied and completely ridiculed in the movie. As far as the 'life is cheap' scenes that run contrary to the book go, watch for the bit when one trooper is being mauled by a flying bug. Ironsides' character has a clear...

I thoroughly enjoyed this film, and really dug its 'Last Man On Earth/Omega Man' vibe. I didn't find it to be nearly as scary as so many of the reviews said it was, but it did get intense! I also loved the look of the film--it's very pretty, especially the rain during the climactic sequences.

I can understand powered armor not being included due to budget constraints, etc, but to say that Starship Troopers the movie was true to the themes of Heinlein's original book...? You clearly did not read the book at all. One of the main themes in Heinlein's novel was that people were...

The first half of it has some really neat stuff, like the demon kids and Mark Addy as the other priest that's trained to deal with the supernatural. I actually liked Mark Addy quite a bit in it. The movie would've been much, much better if it had followed his character more. As it was, it...

That's the truth. I envy anyone who's discovering Pratchett for the first time. 30-plus of the quickest, most fun reads I think I've ever had. Plenty of ideas for gaming as well.

Whenever Conan encountered stuff that was 'Lovecraftian' it was generally all he could do to survive, both mentally and physically. Conan's a fight or flight kind of guy, and flight always suited him better in these situations. Yeah, but what's to compare in these cases, really? Both are...

"Tastes great!" "Less filling!" "Tastes great!" "Less filling!" Seriously, why are you guys arguing this? Robert E. Howard and J. R. R. Tolkien had very different writing styles and wrote very different kinds of stories. Stories that happen to be fantasy. That's it. Why does one *have*...

Dark Horse Comics currently has the rights to Conan and has printed two trade paperbacks reprinting those first Barry Smith issues of Conan. They've also recolored them and I think that they're absolutely beautiful. Check them out. I believe Dark Horse is planning on more. I personally can't...

I hope this rumor is true as well. Personally, I've found Morrison's run to be extremely unpleasant. I dropped it from my month batch of comics quite a few months ago.

Started actually playing D&D in 1990 right after I graduated high school. I used to go to the public library all the time to read the D&D books since the early 80s though (couldn't check them out as they were classified as reference books), especially the Monster Manuals and the Fiend Folio. I...

Frank Frazetta, all the way. Look at all those old Conan and Kane covers. Nothing beats Frazetta's stuff. If he's not available I've got to say that I dig the kind of energy Wayne Reynolds imparts in his drawings.

What a pointless thread. Why not name it Black vs White? Or Jelly vs Peanut Butter? Why do we need a thread that pits the Conan books vs the Lord of the Rings books? I don't get it. Read both. Enjoy both. Or don't. Now if you wanted to ask who would win in a fight between Aragorn and...
