Strangely enough, I just got done watching Green Lantern :First flight from netflix.

Not too bad a movie, Standard over the top fight scenes with stuff getting tore up, But hey who doesn't love stuff getting tore up?

Good rental for the weekend guys.

Check out Hulk vs. Two stories... one against Wolverine is just what you'd expect. The one against Thor throws a really good twist in there. I would also highly recommend Justice League - New Frontier and Wonder Woman. I hear they are working on Batman/Superman Public Enemies right now.

I had seen both Hulk and the wonder woman one not too long ago. Your right, the one with Thor was very well written.

Yeah that new one Supes/Bats Public enemy looks pretty good also.

If Public Enemies stays close to the story from the comics it's gonna be great -  the books were excellent.  New Frontier was great, Wonder Woman was good as well. 

"Green Lantern:  First Flight" sucked big black donkey balls.   GL's got the best books in DC right now and they released this piece of crap?   Not a good idea when you got a big-budget Hollywood movie in production for the same title.  Nothing important to the character was mentioned, fear, will-power, etc . . . and Jordan was a cardboard cutout.

Steven -  that wasn't in "Kingdom Come."  Trust me though, the story is amazing.

LOL Nem, but they forgot Bambi vs The Incredible Hulk!


After the filming of Bambie meets Godzilla sequels were no longer possible.

No, all they have to do is detonate an A-bomb over the filming site to resurrect Bambi as a mutant super deer.

Steve (and the rest of the world) - buy or illegally download "Kingdom Come."  it's by far the best "dark future" story ever told in the "Super Hero" genre.

Dude that was an awesome story.

Never thought I would see Religion interwoven so nicely into a comic book.

The Walt Disney Company’s proposed $4 billion acquisition of Marvel Entertainment may come with a headache: a brand-new superhero copyright dispute.

Heirs to the comic-book artist Jack Kirby, who has been credited as the co-creator of characters and stories behind Marvel mainstays like the “X-Men” and “Fantastic Four,” among many others, last week sent 45 notices of copyright termination to Marvel, Disney, Sony Pictures, Universal Pictures, 20th Century Fox, Paramount Pictures and others who have been making films and other forms of entertainment based on the characters.

Am I wrong in thinking a movie of this would just give Warner a license to print money?

Not at all man. IT would be an instant classic, bringing all the roles into one Grandiose story.

I've got that Public enemies ordered on NEtflix. I hope that's worth a few hours of tv time.

Don't know.

My understanding is that they tried it with Watchmen, it did well, but it didn't do quite as well as would be expected.

Would people flock to a story about a old superman? One that needs the spectre, deals with DC's version of the afterlife,
peronally I'd love to see it.
Not sure the commercial success is thre though.

I liked it for the most part. A few nit picks, but I'll wait until you've seen it.

Me as well though it was better on the second viewing.   The book was better.
