It was clear as day in the print that I saw. I read Ebert's review before going in, so I was looking for it as well. It's all petty clear. I really doubt that there are different prints of the film floating around.

For Barsoomcore... Commando Nearly every scene oozes simultaneously with crapulence and utter cooldom. Arnold picks up an occupied phone booth and chucks it. Arnold's car continuously repairs itself throughout his chase with Solly. Arnold makes a plane fly by threatening it. Arnold flings...

The Iron Giant When the giant flies off to destroy the missile and right before the impact he closes his eyes and says, "Superman..." I always get a lump in my throat during this scene. Always.

I rated it as an 8 as well. I loved it. I've already seen it twice and there's a pretty good chance that I'll be seeing it again before the weekend's out.

I saw Hellboy twice yesterday and caught a showing of Walking Tall somewhere in ther as well. Personally, I loved Hellboy. I love Mignola's comic book, and I mean I LOVE IT, so the movie had a lot to live up to as far as I was concerned. Ranger Wickett is right--the movie delivers on...

It's a non-issue for me as well. If I love a movie I'm going to pick up the DVD because I want to watch it. If a new special edition hits later, well then that's good news for me--I'll have access to an even better version of the DVD (hopefully.) In the case of the LotR movies I *like* having...

I didn't think that Trinity or Morpheus 'kicked butt' against the Agents so much, as they just weren't SCARED of them. It seemed like, "Oh, well. I guess I'll have to fight an Agent now... At least I'm wearing my shades..." Morpheus, Trinity, and Neo all kind of have this detached...

This was fun! I'd like to see some more off-the-wall kinds of weapons like these!

Very nice. Thanks!

More than likely, this list is probably a very literal translation from the Japanese, meaning that the order ought to be flip-flopped. Remember, Japanese is read right to left rather than left to right. As far as the importance of any of them goes, well to go back to my Superman analogy, how...

I would have picked the ESB SE, except for the scene where Luke screams like a girl when he purposefully throws himself off the catwalk in Bespin. Originally, he's silent when he does it so you know he does it on purpose. In the SE you wonder if he slipped or something. It's a much cooler...

I think that the first Matrix film is WAY overrated, even though I did like it. I felt that the other two live action films were just about as good as the first. I picked the first one in this poll because the action sequences felt more urgent and personal to the characters. In Reloaded and...

Nope, that was definitely the falcon guy that gets stuck in the quicksand and then shows up to help Viggo later. No mystery there at all. I have to assume that you had already given up on the movie to have missed that. I enjoyed the movie quite a bit myself, but hey--different strokes for...

I'm working on Midnight Sun, the collection of Karl Edward Wagner's Kane short stories. I just finished Reflections For the Winter of My Soul and Cold Light. Bad. To. The. BONE. Highly recomended.

Personally, I never really cared for Burton's Batman. Good production value and design, great music, and that's about it. It is, of course, miles better than either of Schumacher's films. >shudder< The older material, though, was MEANT to be laughable. The 60's Batman TV show was a comedy...

To me, watching the American Godzilla movie was like watching a Superman movie where they decided Superman wasn't going to be Clark Kent, wasn't going to have super-strength, invulnerability, the power of flight, AND they decided to change his costume.

Tower of Babel is the one, yeah. Rha's Al Ghul gets ahold of Batman's plans for doing in the JLA. Good stuff.

Hey! It was in my list! Some folks here have jogged my memory a bit too. I'll have to add the following to my list: Starman (got the whole run in a stack next to my bed just waiting to be re-read, too) Spectre (John Ostrander and Tom Mandrake's run. Great, great stuff. I just finished...

Here are the comics that I either get excited to see new issues on the stands or have read over and over since their original printing: Hellboy Alan Moore's Swamp Thing Ultimate Spider-Man Supreme Power Tom Strong Top Ten & Smax Kurt Busiek's Thunderbolts Powers Preacher Sin City...

I just started Midnight Sun the other day. Finished up the story Undertow recently. Very, VERY cool stuff. I can't wait to read the rest of it. So far the Kane books are some of my all-time favorites. I'll be sad when I've finally read all of them.
