Both the anti-hero Black Adam and the Jason Momoa version of Aquaman seem inspired by Namor the Submariner to me.

Lee Pace would have been a perfect Adam Warlock, it was a waste to cast him as Ronan, especially since he was such a simplistic, by the numbers villain in the movie. Rodrigo Santoro would be my second choice. Warlock has an otherworldliness, an emotional distance that is not part of McConaughey's tool kit. Depending…

Chad Michael Murray has too many first names.

Robert Culp was awesome on that show. FBI Agent Bill Maxwell reactionary, cold war cynicism was the perfect foil for teacher Ralph Hinkley's idealism and Culp gave Maxwell a subtle desperate edge, as if the agent knew he was about to put out to pasture and this suit was his last chance to kick some ass.

Without Star Trek: The Animated Series, we would have never seen Spock's childhood pet Sehlat, basically a giant saber-tooth teddy bear. That alone is enough to make that show canon.

Well, you are not going to find me defending the wit and wisdom of the Catwoman movie. I agree with you, Halle Berry is very is on the eyes but that film is an abomination. Truth be told Julie Newmar, Bruce Timm and Darwin Cooke's version are the Catwomen I truly love.

Well neither did almost half the Batman movies. I guess the most accurate description of Catwoman is masked adventurer, a term that had more relevance in the 30s and 40s and is not really used to describe contemporary characters.
"Catwoman" shouldn't even be considered a movie.

You're splitting hairs a bit. Namor and Hulk are considered superheroes although they can also be considered anti-heroes. Green Arrow, Hawkeye, Black Widow, Nightwing are considered superheroes, although they have no superpowers, just exceptional human abilities. The definition is fluid and contextual.

Catwoman counts as a superhero although she can also be considered a super villain. She's had her own comics title and been portrayed multiple times in television and movies.

I wouldn't overplay DC's films as being very pro woman. Nolan was not known for strong female characters in his Batman cycle (Catwoman being the sole exception). Snyder's penchant for strong,violent women can be viewed as fetishistic as much as feminist. Superman's birth mother Lara-El is given pretty short shrift in…

The movie Juno sends me into fits of rage. Diablo Cody's super trendy dialogue is very irritating and I find almost all the character's unrelatable.

Oh, I agree, with touches of earth goddess and streetwise thief. Bassett would have nailed it, but there wasn't enough room for that character in the Xmen movie as made.

Zoe would great, but she is a bit ubiquitous now and probably little older than a rebooted Storm should be, presuming the next movie is set prior to the original X men film.

My take is that all the Xmen filmmakers have tended to focus on the male mutants, Xavier, Magneto and Wolverine primarily. Neither Rogue nor Jean Gray evolve into strong personalities, and Mystique is pretty much a henchman, although she is finally emerging as a central character in her own right. But compared to the…

I can't imagine Bassett in the role as written. She's too commanding a personality, the power dynamic would shift in the group just by her presence.

I wish Halle Berry the best, but I am ready for a new Storm. I feel a little guilty given that the trailer hint heavily of her demise. The next XMen is set in the "80s. May Singer wallow in shame if he deprives the viewing public of Dazzler and Mohawk Storm.

Mel Profitt is still my favorite Spacey role, such a brilliant, perverse, cruel character. Jack Vincennes is a close second. I've never understood the appeal of his villain in SE7EN, who struck as a rote serial killer with delusions of grandeur.

I thought Posey's character's dysfunctional, masochistic relationship with Spacey's Luthor was one of the few interesting bits in Superman Returns. It was Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf for the comic book crowd.

Johns is the weak link at DC. Snyder, Lemire, Kindt, Pak and Azzarello are all doing outstanding work but Johns miscalculated and chaotic creative vision undercuts their accomplishments.

Seeing Adrian Pasdar in the Heroes picture reminds me of his short lived '90s series "Profit". Pasdar was great as an evil, psychologically damaged executive conniving his way up the ladder of a multinational corporation. Interesting show well ahead of its time. The creepy image of Pasdar's disturbed exec sleeping in…
