I'm suddenly a little more accepting of Brie Larson as Captain Marvel.

I hope it has a better third act then GMK. (I adore the Gamera trilogy from Kaneko and wish he had been free to do the movie the way he wanted including having Anguirus and Varan instead of King Ghidorah and Mothra.) Then again, coming from the creator of Evangelion, it'll probably be utter nonsense that looks really…

Have they even cast Captain Marv—I mean "Shazam" yet? I know they've got Black Adam sorted.

I think the head may be the only bit that survived (if it's still around). I actually got really depressed one day looking at pictures of what remains of the Showa suits.

It should be. I believe the target date was later this year or early next year.

Oh, agreed. I wonder why they didn't have him to do his lines phonetically like in Latitude Zero. He was actually pretty good in that, considering.

Because of the stupid deal Toho made with Universal. Toho has distribution rights to the Japanese cut outside the US. Universal has rights to the US cut in the US. Neither one can release the other's cut in the other's country without renegotiating the contracts. Toho is very skittish about legal things (look how long…

I don't want Legendary to have the rights to Jet Jaguar. I want him to stay that Ultraman ripoff with that dumb grin. If Legendary gets him he'll look like the Guyver or something and I don't want that.

Well, that's like, your opinion, man.

I hate to admit that I rented it twice as a kid, just because I love kaiju so much, even the crappy ones. It's no Reptilicus, that's for sure.

Hopefully they just make that a subplot like in the Toho movies and just say "fuck it, big ape with lightning powers, who cares?"

Do you mean it's the same quality? Both cuts of King Kong Escapes are pretty much the same, there's just the dubbing of most characters. (Since an American production company was involved, much like Invasion of Astro Monster, there are a couple English speaking actors not being dubbed in the US version that are dubbed…

I'm still on the fence about this movie, but at least the director gets the "kaiju fucking things up" angle. That tree ruining that helicopter's shit is perfect golden era Toho.

*pours one out for the death of the dream of Katee Sackhoff as Captain Marvel*

Really the only titles I like from them anymore are the ones that the writers just get to go have fun with. Howard the Duck, Squirrel Girl, Power Man and Iron Fist. I wish Spider-Gwen was on that list but the ideas (and design) are vastly better than the comic actually is. Basically, I like any of the comics that are…

As I said previously, when will they be done, so I can read about one of my favorite characters not being a complete jerkass?

Really? I played the first episode around the time it came out and wasn't overly fond of the new mechanics. For some reason it really bugged me to be playing a point and click where you control the walking with WASD. Here's hoping I enjoy it more overall this time. (I'm replaying through the first episode right now.…

In that movie? Yeah, that would make sense.

Lucifer from The Sandman. I always loved his bit about how dumb the idea that he was skulking around for souls like he had nothing better to do and that as soon as he's free from responsibility he just wants to open a lounge.

I'm finally going to play through Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse. Aside from that, I started The Walking Dead: Season 1 and was surprised by how quickly I was drawn in, especially as someone who is really tired of zombies. So I guess it looks like a Telltale weekend. (Except for the fact that I'm also starting my…
