  1. Haha http://comics.ha.com/itm/animation-art/he-man-and-the-masters-of-the-universe-production-cel-filmation-1983-total-2-items-/a/121543-14147.s?ic4=GalleryView-Thumbnail-071515 I never knew Heritage had a sense of humor. That's a pretty funny description.

  3. You keep bringing up your 102 feedback like that makes you an elder or something. Unless you lost a leg or had a string of funerals, there's not really an excuse why it would take you a month to ship something out. Especially as much selling and advertising posts you make on here.
  4. Oh man. That trailer is so messed up and awesome. Love it!
  5. I'd say better than 50% odds for the location, given the Hebrew word, and the released synopsis for episode 2. Obviously anythings possible, and I've seen other guesses like , but this one seems highly possible, and the other ones fail to tie so strongly into the hebrew word, and the ep2 synopsis. PS , anyone interested in that other theory i just mentioned aboved (which i think is wrong)
  6. Ahh. Fair enough. I don't purchase a ton here so I rarely check the HOS.
  7. Why are several people getting confused by this? He's been in the HOS for over a year. He's the 20th Hall of Shame Member. Maybe because this is the first line of your post when you brought it up again. Sorry I didn't scrutinize the minutiae of every subsequent post. Y'all tend to get a little wordy.
  8. So if there's already been a vote, why isn't he on the HOS already? Just add him.
  9. Yay! Lawyer speak! All lawyer speak I see on these boards translates to "this is my point. I don't see yours. Let's cloud the issue! If you want to argue that the creators have more knowledge, fine. Whether that is a good thing at this point is debatable. With Ultimate, Secret Wars, etc... there are so many retcons that I'm happier with the MCU direction than I am with the print direction. Uhh, wasn't mark millar a creative consultant on the newest FF? You seriously think there was no comic person input on this movie? Regardless of the shenanigans that were pulled throughout production, everything was way off base, with the help of people with comic backgrounds. As for Ghost Rider, pointless to argue. I'm seeing Fiege as a comic person, you're not. So yes, nobody comic was super involved, deviated too far from comic, Nic Cage... it sucked. Uhh, no. Man of Steel reportedly had a $225 million production budget, plus another $150 million for marketing and distribution Amazing Spider-Man 2 reportedly had a production budget of $255 million and a marketing budget of at least $180 million. MOS - 375 mil vers 668 mil world wide take. about 1.78 x budget. AS2 - 435 mil vers 708 mil world wide take. about 1.62 x budget. MOS also did about 90 million more domestically, which I think at this point we all know they make a way bigger cut from domestic box office than foreign. MOS was also a marked box office improvement over the previous Superman movie. AS2 was not. Anyway. I think it's a good thing Fiege has more control without imput. You don't. It is what it is.
  10. Why do you keep assuming Fiege has no knowledge of these characters? Or less than the people working on the books? From everything I've read over the years, Fiege practically has encyclopedic knowledge of the Marvel universe. I don't see what him being a Hollywood guy has to do with undermining that fact. Fantastic Four was always going to be a mess. The Ghost Rider films were always going to be a mess with Nic Cage. Man of Steel not working for you is totally your opinion. Box office says different, and a lot of us like it. None of us truly know what exactly has been going on behind the scenes at the MCU over the last decade, and who had the most say in the direction. But I've yet to see anything that says Fiege doesn't have the best interest of making films that respect source material yet still connect with modern movie audiences. So until Marvel starts completely changing everything about the characters (Fox) or starts having bombs (Fox, Sony, Universal...) I'm going to assume him having more control is a good thing.
  11. Feige is a comic guy. Just because he wasn't in the publishing side doesn't mean he doesn't know about the characters. http://www.nytimes.com/2011/07/25/business/media/marvel-with-a-fan-at-the-helm-steers-its-heroes-to-the-screen.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0 And judging by how some of the Fox stuff has turned out, with comic writers guiding, I'd much rather have a fan steering the ship.
  12. I know first appearances have gone up lately, but am I missing something on the Solar? http://comics.ha.com/itm/silver-age-1956-1969-/doctor-solar-1-gold-key-1962-cgc-nm-94-off-white-to-white-pages/a/7147-93252.s?ic4=GalleryView-Thumbnail-071515 Seems like quite an increase.
  13. It was a resub, so maybe they just kept it?
  14. Some better than expected, some not. All in all pleased.
  15. Yeah, I'm surprised this is even up for debate. The seller is intentionally trying to be deceptive in that listing. File a return/item not as described with eBay. They'll make the seller pay return shipping. And at the very least leave a neutral saying item was a reproduction, otherwise less experienced buyers are going to get fleeced in the future.
  16. Yeah, those posters were all over the place online leading up to the movie coming out. I never read print, and I still saw them.
  17. American Ultra was surprisingly entertaining. First thing I ever liked Kstew in
