Plant only lives 2-3 months and only 'about half' of the plants survive the transplant out of the cultivation box. So... I'm gonna give em a few more years of development before I get excited about this idea as an alternative to light bulbs.

There was a time when this movie was only available on VHS, but I think it eventually made it to DVD.

I think it was more Marvel's assertion that it would be a permanent change that caused most of the controversy. Had they come out and admitted what EVERYONE knew was the deal from the start, that it was a temporary story arch and not a permanent change there would have been zero backlash and Superior probably would…

I know they like to restart the counter on long running comics like Amazing Spider-man, I guess it's cause a #1 boosts sales and encourages new readers to pick up fresh without worrying about the back-log? Personally, I take some pride in the big numbers. I mean, this one makes sense I suppose, there was a break in…

That was the worst aspect of it to me, they took Peter Parker away. I don't totally remember them trying to undo that either. They found that Spidey skeleton in the furnace, built up this whole mystery, made it more complicated with multiple Parker clones, threw in a stacy clone for good measure, then just kind of…

Only because it went on so long though. It took up like 2 and half years of stories, it was complicated, and the resolution to it was vague and open ended. But I think a lot of the basic story elements there were pretty cool, so if it could be condensed into a movie, or set up in one then have it return in another,…

More known than Guardians by far, but not 'general public' known. If they haven't gotten a movie or a campy 70's tv show, no one will know anything about them.

The general public wouldn't know a comic superhero unless it had a campy TV show from the 70's or a movie. I didn't even know much about him and I read comics as a kid. And I'd guess Blade was well received more because people seem to like vampire flicks.

X1 and X2 aren't terrible movies by any means, they just didn't do X-men justice. I did miss the costumes, with them all in super safe black leather they kind of lost their individual identities in some ways.

I think the 9 to 10 regen doesn't really compare since Tennant kind of came in quick and in a lot of ways just played Eccleston's doctor at first. Plus, the show was just getting back, so the emotional impact of a regeneration hadn't been considered let alone taken seriously. My take on the first couple series is that…

I honestly didn't care for his vision of the X-men universe. Some decent casting here and there in the first set of movies, and I guess the way they all played out is exactly what you'd expect from that era of comic book movies, but it didn't feel like X-men to me. I'm willing to give him a chance with his return…

I'd say that point came and went.

Good. Thin out the world population from the unsustainable 7 billion that the we're at now. When/if society crumbles, either due to climate change or otherwise, you're not gonna have the same humanitarian view you have now anyway. You're gonna worry about yourself and those you care about. The fact that you even have…

I don't understand your response, you seem to be confrontational about the topic and I don't see how it became an 'us vs them' conversation. I don't know how anyone could argue that 'most' of the world is undeveloped. underdeveloped, sure. But not in the way I was talking. So to be clear. The fact that we don't have…

His wisdom embiggens the smallest man

Life is insanely easy now though. People like to bitch about specifics, but lets face it, the majority of the developed world live a cushy life. We've nearly removed the whole 'survival' aspect of being alive.

I'm very much of the opinion that the Earth will be just fine no matter what we do to it. Life will find a way to endure whatever conditions the planet is in, no matter how extreme. Human life will probably find ways to continue as well. We'd see a population drop, but when we're sitting at close to 7 billion people,…

Your ability to apply reason to this situation automatically disqualifies you from all things i09.

Who let Patton Oswalt in here?
