  1. I obviously need to start checking the local Craigslist more often. One does not simply check Craigslist. You have to be obsessed with checking, checking every hour to be the first to reply and be able to drop what you're doing, driving an hour to look at mostly garbage. Hoping for the diamond in the rough. Knowing there are 100 other guys doing the same thing.
  2. Well since good casts have made hundreds of good movies, I'll reserve judgement until I actually see it. And hope for the best.
  3. With a name like Little Bill I'm surprised you don't think Unforgiven is the best western of all time Def my fave or in the top 3
  4. Great trailer, surprising they didn't throw in a few bars from the iconic theme song.
  5. Yes! There's no grieving when a rectangular black screen bleeds. Lame cliffhanger that was a super cheap emotional gimmick rather than advancing the story. The story will pick up at the exact same point whether we know who bites it or not. Same advancement. I'm hoping they don't have a graphic depiction of a well liked character getting brutally murdered. Just me I didn't need to see the character getting beaten to death. They should have shown who he picked and then show the blank screen. I'd agree with that but still thought it wa a good episode except for the extra half hour of commercials added to make the show 90 minutes.

  7. Would you have enjoyed the show more if someone got their brains bashed in?
  8. I like the characters but I really wish they'd drop the crime of the week format
  9. Enjoying the show! Watched the first 4 The fight in the stairwell in epi 3 was amazing. Watched it twice to see if it was 1 take but there looks like an edit in the middle - either way, great camera work and wicked fight choreography.
  10. That's an interesting way to describe it. But I think it is being done purposely to convey how overly self-confident Lucifer is in his actions. I watched Episode 4 last night, and liked it. Agreed on the bit about Lucifer mannerisms being overacted and Bosco's follow up, as well.....I'd like to see the character portayed with more of a dark edge. But it is basic TV, after all and as such, it needs to fairly mass market friendly Prreacher looks to be the distinctly darker of the 2 Vertigo shows, with similiar conepts that play on morality/religion. Overall I am definitely a fan of FOX's Lucifer and its' ratings are fairly solid.Looks like it will be renewed. http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/2016/03/01/tv-ratings-monday-feb-29-2016/ Since he's falling for ladycop I predict his terrifying dark side will emerge when someone hurts, tries to kill or better yet actually kills her.

  11. Totally agree. Original supply (the print run) has almost no meaning decades later. Unless the books are still heavily clustered in one spot (unopened cases, or significant hoards), it doesn't matter how many were originally printed. All that matters is how many are available in the current market and the current demand. 99%+ of all comics ever printed are EITHER sitting somewhere that doesn't make them available for sale or they have been destroyed. Even the CGC census rarely has even 5% of the print run of any comic after 16 years in operation... and most of those CGC graded copies are not for sale. If 40 people want a comic that only has 20 copies available on the market, it doesn't matter if the original print run was 400, 4,000, 40,000 or 400,000. There are 20 available. Current supply and current demand matter, not original supply and original demand. Supply is over-rated except when it's not. If NM 98 had the same print run as Walking Dead 1 we would have a completely different ballgame for Deadpool lovers
  12. Oh for the good ol' days in eBay's infancy when it was full of auctions titled "old comics" and listed in wrong categories. My best score was a high grade run of Detective 415-445 listed in the books category.
  13. Being silly? Because someone pointed out your view on Cable taking off in the hobby changed three times. Seems like you went excessive to over-emphasize how nobody better question your changing view on things. No, Bosco. As usual, as you have done countless times in the past, you're trying to incite a fight. Not going to happen. My "view" on "Cable taking off" did not change, it did not evolve. They are estimates, and estimates, by their very nature, are not precise. You're trying to play "gotcha!", and it's disingenuous. Now, are we done being silly? Is this a topic that truly fires you up or do you just like to argue in general? It's odd
  14. not until the movie at least Hasn't IM 55 already dropped? Not such an easy sell these days
  15. Love the actor who played the creature. Flight of the Conchords is one of the few unique shows and he's great in it as well.
  16. New fish in the water, how high will it go. http://m.ebay.com/itm/222005246132?_mwBanner=1
  17. I care. Looks cool and HBO has a good track record. I loved the Westworld Famous Monsters issue! Gogos cover I think.
  18. I think people want this show to be more realistic, but it is a comic book show. So,incredibly stupid and far fetched things happen like easily wiping out the cult members with nary a scratch to the good guys. So if you can get past your expectations of it being on par with the last batman trilogy and accept it's silliness, you can enjoy it.
  19. Was that movie hype? Very unimpressed with The Vision in A2, and one of my favorite Avengers as a kid. Killer covers on 57 & 58
  20. Great review - I find myself in total agreement :thumbsup: While I very much enjoyed JJ all around, I can't help but agree with your points I actually liked the fight scenes in JJ, they seemed more real than the choreographed stuff. Fighting like Into The Badlands for example looks too polished, nothing like that happens in real life. UFC fights are not that pretty, often short and brutal and sometimes boring. Plus the fact I don't think JJ or Cage have any fighting skills, they're just Butterbean tough. Daredevil is a ninja, different style
  21. What if he turns out shorter than Justin Bieber?
