    Crack it open, get it cleaned and press. Sub it to PGX and hope for a 10.0 then. ***Just be happy with your 9.9

    That trailer made me smile. Finally a MCU movie I'm excited to see again. ***LFG!!!

    May I ask what you use to analyze the data? Excel? Pen/Paper/Caluclator? Just wondering if there's a way to make this easier or automated since this is great information to have and I would hate to see it stop. ***I love excel

    Two quotes that embodies my approach to grading comics... “Occasionally, the “eyeball” approach to measurement is both imprecise and truly problematic, though we might not know that until it’s too late.” "When they go low, we go high." ***I spent way too much time staring at these books

    I really liked Mahershala Ali in Green Book. Not a movie I would generally like but he and Vigo did a great job in it. Puts a smile on your face after watching it. ***I look forward to seeing this movie

    Newsstand... ***Get the Superman 204 Retail Incentive Sketch Cover...that's a better Superman book

    I'm gonna use ChatGPT and ask it what grade to give each book. ***I'm in

    I would agree if you're talking about books from (lets say) 1990 to present...then that theory is probable (but without any proof one way or another). I highly doubt that we will suddenly see an influx of GSX1 9.9 in the near future. I will even bet we won't see another single one pop up in 9.9 at all. That's my counter argument to the video. CGC would lose all credibility if that happens and this whole comic book collecting/grading thing would be a total joke. ***But again, if another one pops up I'll gladly admit I'm wrong
  9. AnthonyTheAbyss
    So he thinks CGC is purposefully giving a 9.8 book a 9.9 to make more money by hyping up the prescreening option. I think he's coming up with conspiracy theories to get more YouTube views. ***A year from now if we see an influx of GSX1 graded 9.9 I'll come back and apologize and admit he's right
  10. AnthonyTheAbyss
    I believe CBCS gives it a grade but adds the notes of the cover being removed. I believe CGC gives it an NG and notes the cover being removed. HOWEVER...I think a few of the CGC that got a grade (i.e. CGC 9.8) made it through before it was decided to give it the NG designation going forward. ***I have an Incredible Hulk 181 Facsimile CGC 9.8 (no barcode)...which is pretty cool

    The trailer didn't really get me excited. They also went too hard on the music. Any new Alien or Predator movie I'm going to lower my expectations and hope they exceed it. ***I'm not asking for much...just want it to be as good as the first two movies
  12. AnthonyTheAbyss
    Apparently the MCU took a nosedive because KF wasn't as hands-on as he needed to be. I find it mindboggling that he is the ONLY person capable of keeping the MCU moving in the right direction. ***Give the man a blank check for the next contract negotiation

    I'm starting to feel a bit uneasy about this movie. My excitement level was at a 10 and has gradually decreased with each announcement/rumor. Past characters I love showing up looking old. Starting to get tired of the current formula: - Have a bunch of cameos - Have a bunch of Easter eggs - Have a bunch of CGI ***I just want a Deadpool vs Wolverine movie where they do violent things to each other and see who heals faster.

    Shocked to see the 87 Metacritic. I read over some of the lowest reviews (50's and 60's). I can't say they're wrong if they're someone who doesn't like varying art styles, dizzying colors, and over the top pace. ***Can't please everybody
  15. AnthonyTheAbyss
    I have yet to see a single negative review or anything close to a negative review. This makes my spidey-sense tingle. ***I'm scared cause we can't agree on ANYTHING

    Isn't he down to only one more movie before retiring? ***I'd like that final movie to be his take on a Rom Com
  17. AnthonyTheAbyss
    I liked it. I don't think it's worse than 2...1st one is still top dog, this 3rd one is second dog, 2nd one is third dog. ***Some pretty dark/disturbing scenes I wasn't expecting from a GOTG movie
  18. AnthonyTheAbyss
    I hated the bad publicity it was getting for casting two white dudes as voice actors. Took me a while to get use to hearing Charlie Day and not thinking Sunny In Philly. It was an ok movie so I never thought it would reach this level of success. ***Very happy it is doing well
  19. AnthonyTheAbyss
    I was a bit apprehensive going in because I was reading/watching all the reviews saying it was subpar...BUTT... ...I liked it. I had a good time. I like the new Cassy, Kang was spectacular, and visually it was very good (some CGI needs to be cleaned up but whatever). Well worth the ticket price and a large popcorn. LOVED the end credit...you know which one. ***Good movie to kick off phase 5

    I'm going to have a hard time picturing anybody other than HC being the modern day Superman. I thought he was perfect for the role. Having said that, I'm glad to see the seismic changes taking place. I don't know if this will make the DCEU better or worse...just happy they recognized something drastic needed to be done and they did it. ***Would love to see a Superman "Year Two" movie

    I'm going to bump my old post back in 2021. This news makes me extremely happy. A few points... - James Gunn involved with Lobo (in whatever capacity) is wonderful news - I don't want Jason Mamoa to be cast as Lobo (he's Aquaman) - Has to be R-rated (this is a must) - Please don't make him be part of an already existing superhero movie...have his own movie ***Cast Dave Bautista!!!

    Bring in Knull. No other symbiote matters. Let's get this train rolling! ***This franchise Sony/Venom is frustratingly underwhelming
  23. AnthonyTheAbyss
    I loved: - Into the Spiderverse - The Muppet Movie - Beauty and the Beast (with Emma Watson) ****I also loved Harry Potter
  24. AnthonyTheAbyss
    I really like how Marvel incorporates music. Never thought Elton John would make a trailer more epic. Didn't like Ant Man 1 or 2. Nothing wrong about the two movies...but nothing great either. This looks fantastic with the Sci-Fi vibes. ***Just wish they start showing more scenes that emphasize how dangerous Kang is

    If anybody has $25 dollars to spare, go pick up a Lego Speed Champion. They are fantastic cars and the build is very fun. If anybody has $300 dollars to spare, go pick up a Lego Technic car (I recommend the Bugatti but all of them are awesome). ***Another fun (but expensive) hobby
