It's time to play!

He doesn't still have that helmet of hair, does he?

It's a shame SUPERMAN couldn't appear in this Superman comic. Look at that logo on his chest! It has to be over an inch thick, of some nigh-indestructible material. Good thing that guy is super-strong.

My girlfriend and her boys watch it with a lot of enthusiasm. I sit with them and draw. It's ok. It needs a lot more adult drama (as opposed to teen), and maybe make more of the post- electricity and government world. Needs more sci fi or horror or something.

It's not being moved to Disney XD because it's assumed to be boy-oriented, or in order to make it more boy-oriented. XD has a lot of action-adventure shows and other stuff that happens to appeal more to boys (generally speaking of course), as opposed to the main Disney channel that is more comedy shows, and skews more…

That Space Station 76 synopsis is more of an outline. I think it sounds like fun, and I think it could be a hit. Everyone from Hipsters to old Hippies love that retro 70's crap.

Thanks Annalee- that is one serious timesuck.

"Mandarin" used to mean a Chinese official, now it refers to a dialect. It's definitely specifying the character as a Chinese man, which might mean he should be Chinese, or it might be an antiquated, racist way of distinguishing someone. Then again, it could be the wrong way to refer to someone, but it happens to be…

Definitely. Or, as they did it in Thor, it's sort of magic, sort of alien technology.

Wow! Thanks for that.

Good guess about the rings. And I am tired of everything being about terrorists. Also torture.

Yeah, these stories were popular as comic book stories. Stick pretty close to it, like the first Iron Man movie. Sure, a guy building a mech suit in a cave to escape terrorists is silly, but they committed to it, and it was great.

I don't mind a long movie, if the story calls for it, but I think most of these three-hour movies move along way more slowly than they have to. Many modern directors are over indulged. Limits can help define a work of art- they make you work harder.

Say WHAAAA?

I love them both. I'd like to love Lily and Morticia equally, and maybe at the same time ;-)

I really wish it was going to series. I think it could have been a lot of sinister fun, and maybe very thoughtful too. It definitely won't be anything like the original, and never was trying to be. The original is very kid-friendly, very loving of old monster movie imagery, but the humor was slapstick or family…

Iron Man 3 would be a LOT more fun if the Mandarin's rings shot ice rays and fire beams.

It's about as faithful a live-action adaptation of the cartoon as possible, while innovating and updating the visuals for the 21st Century. Adult fanboys hate on it because it's so kid-friendly, including the filmmaker's desire to have every crashed driver survive in those admittedly silly bubbles instead of racking…

Oh, Charlie Jane- why dost thou forsake me? The Bride from my Frankenstein webcomic is plenty sexy, and oh-so-geeky! She even dressed up as The Doctor for the io9/Gawker meet-up for "Torchwood: Miracle Day"!

You're right. I Googled "Enterprise Tractor Beam" and that one came up, and it's a pretty picture. But one of the 1,433,000 reasons that the original Star Trek is better than Abrams Trek is, they cared about how the Enterprise works. They thought about these things, and in trying so hard to at least SEEM scientific,…
