  1. Which sources show ratings for broadcast television and cable together? I only see them separately listed, so I've never been sure how AMC or HBO shows compare to the networks. Historically network television has had higher ratings--are you sure the Walking Dead has higher ratings than Monday Night Football? There were several times last season I remember reading that Walking Dead beat Sunday Night Football quite handily head-to-head in the ratings. However, I don't recall it ever being compared to MNF.
  2. Looks like the alien-of-the-week on any Star Trek show. Blah.
  3. I thought Flockhart was playing Kara's mother. Did they get the pic wrong?
  4. I'm pretty sure it's part of the movie Oh really? Huh. From the way I read it I thought that was Harley giving the director a tattoo.
  5. The cast is giving each other tattoos? I think that's asinine.
  6. Looking at all that, might it have a chance at $450mil worldwide?
  7. Shipping comics via Media Mail is NOT against the law. It's against USPS policy & procedures, but not against the law.
  8. As long as there is a movie actively in development, Fox can hold the rights. They don't even have to release a film.
  9. Again, none of that makes any sense. So what about the 1961 origin and the Soviets. Make the trip into space about something else...have Reed try and open up a wormhole or something else to try and get to the other side of the galaxy, then have some sort of radiation or stellar effect give them their powers. The Soviet thing is obvious, but it's also obvious how it can be tweaked to remain faithful to the original story and yet updated to something relevant. Hell, they can do it on any Star Trek TV show...why not for this story?
  10. The Negative Zone is a fictional antimatter universe, so any name given to a planet in it isn't a renaming of the universe itself. You're missing my point. Why change the reference at all? Why change their origin so they get their powers from there in the FIRST place? Why did they need to change it up? It makes zero sense.
  11. The more it's posted here, the more I just shake my head at the silly frivolous changes Fox made for no apparent reason. Why call it "Planet Zero" instead of the "Negative Zone?" I mean, really? What improvement does THAT change make that they just HAD to make it? Twits.
  12. I totally thought this was like karaoke or something. It's a Styx concert. That's Dennis DeYoung on the left. Domo Arigato, Chip
  13. We've got the Thing & The Torch for the small funny moments. Actually, just Ben's interaction with Reed results in enough "funny" for the FF, thank you. We definitely don't need an imp character. No, we don't. No.
  14. One man's crapola is another man's treasure. Enjoy your crapola, Roy.
  15. I'd take that stupid asinine character off of that list. He appeared only twice from 1961 to 1976. I generally can't stand impish characters, so screw that noise. I'd put the Wizard, Thundra or Diablo in there instead as a "key" FF character. Add in Dragon Man & the Mad Thinker as well. Hell, The Brute and Darkoth are more important characters to the FF than Impossible Man is.
  16. I tried to download it at Pirate Bay and a hand came through the monitor and slapped me in the face. Then the hand offered me a bag of coke...
  17. Serves them right. I'm glad it's as dismal an outlook as possible. They should have done their best to adapt the classic versions of characters and re-worked a classic storyline. The storyboards are already there...Jack Kirby did them himself.
  18. Wow. With one statement you prove you know absolutely nothing about comic books and the characters that populate them...so, why are you even here on this forum? What a complete and total wildly_fanciful_statement statement.
