“Polarizing” is okay if you have the box office to back up your gamble. But with the box office trend going the wrong way for Star Trek I’m actually a bit shocked the studio would be serious about making another one any time soon.

It doesn’t really help that the cartoons have done cool and inventive things with Beast Boy’s powers. Amaya just using the same limited set of animals over and over seems even more dull and lacking in creativity by comparison.

My problem is old man syndrome. I decide to give comics a try again but every time I look at the prices I fall into “eh, back in my day you could get new comic books for 50 cents.”

I’m sorry that I only have one star to give you.

The slow build is a good idea because we all have our favorite characters so we want more out of those characters than just a gloried cameo.

I also see it as more of the format rather than the sort of screen you get to see a movie on. Before the days of VCRs and cable I didn’t get to see many movies because your theater options in rural America were not good. But thanks to advances in technology I can see movies from all over the world from the comfort of

Yea, I’m not so sure about that soon thing. If all the superhero movies felt the same then yes I’d say we’d be headed to burn out and fatigue. But the studios seem to get that they need to shake up the formula so that Deadpool 2 is going to feel nothing like Black Panther.

Perhaps from a story telling point of view there is a way to do a Doctor Doom movie without relaunching, rebooting, or re-anything. But to get butts in those theater seats you just about have to offer something that wipes out the bad ideas like The Thing with no pants.

Discounts sound cool, it’s just too bad everything I collect is either....

Warner/DC has a villain problem that Marvel/Disney didn’t really have to deal with.

Just another squander on the part of Cartoon Network and Adult Swim. They will get something wildly popular but then they will cheap out and delay, delay, delay ordering more. The only shocking thing about Cartoon Network and Adult Swim is that they are still in business.

Over at the table with Spock and Riddick is Thor from Stargate SG1.

While alien invasion is great for movies the logistics of the whole thing don’t make it worth the effort.

Iron Man could claim the character has been around since 1963. Iron Man crossed over with the wider Marvel world that chances were pretty good that even if you didn’t read the Iron Man comic books you knew who Iron Man was.

It does seem like a pretty horrible business plan. Let’s pay big money for the rights to characters that aren’t very well known even inside of comic book nerd circles. Unless you were just buying a load of comic books in the brief window of publication then you aren’t going to have a clue who any of the characters are.

I get the feeling I’m going to have to put in a lot of walking since it looks like they are going so far beyond the usual roundup of most popular dinosaurs. I just hope the spawning is good out in rural areas so it’s not like Pokemon Go where it’s tough playing outside the cites.

I’m a bit split. On one hand it’s not as much nostalgia as I was wanting. On the other hand we don’t get a lot of space shows where we get people on alien planets so maybe I should be glad to get something.

It comes up in the first episode and later in a line here and there that they were one of several families that where going to be part of a colony. It’s why they couldn’t just stay at the first habitable planet they found but needed to fix the ship to get to the colony.

Left out the option of will a DC movie flop so bad between now and the Flash movie that Warner Brothers has to reboot the whole universe before a Flash movie can get made?

He thinks people are willing to pay for CBS All Access with what little it has to offer so he must figure we are pretty damn stupid.
