I remember watching (and later reading) The Stand.  I don't remember how long the power had been out across the country after everyone dying off left the power stations unattended and failing, but I do remember that when a large group of survivors congregated in Boulder it was a major fucking operation just to get

So, what, they portrayed power as something that just lives in the air and can come on full force as soon as a button is flipped?  So power stations that have sat disused for 15 years are somehow in perfect working order and just turn themselves on and go through their startups autonomously?  Or did they just skip all

So wait, did he just tell the world that Catherine Zeta-Jones-Douglas has rotten crotch?  Talk about passing the fuck.

Wait, what? I thought Michael Rooker was the lead female villain.

Unless he's playing the Raccoon live action, I'm not that excited.  I really want the Raccoon to be a dude in a Raccoon outfit.

I'm thinking that, yes, this is the only way I'm ever watching S4.  Although I'd imagine I'd watch just the commentary versions, so I may be kind of lost as to what is going on.  In that way I'd be a lot like Sony.

He was going to play Pretty Woman?  Jesus, I would have paid cash money to see him and Richard Gere necking. Was it sort of a quasi sequel to Cruising at one point?

I was really bummed that Gay Perry did not make a cameo in Iron Man 3.  Enjoyed it otherwise, but no Gay Perry was a major disappointment.

I do know the whole backstory of the how and why his name isn't on Watchmen.  Read a great interview with Dave Gibbons, and saw the supplemental materials on the DVD that covered it. And I do think it's important to note that he gave his cut of the money to Gibbons, as well.  At least he isn't a hypocrite in that

Even if the movies were all shite, I wouldn't have any sympathy for Moore being offended because there is a credit that says "based on the book by Alan Moore."  That isn't a lie, even for a piece of shit like League.  It's the truth that they were based on Moore's books.  If that's all that outrages him, then he

Best known as Lancelot in Camelot.  C'est Moi!

Possibly even before the Herpes.

I have to say that I thought Die Hard With A Vengeance was fantastic. It may not have been as smart as the original (what action movie ever has been), but it was heads and tails above not just Die Hard 2, but over most every other action movie you care to stack it against (save a few obvious classics).  It also had an

Well, if he didn't own it, then tough shit.  I mean, I love his comics, but I also don't think the copyright holder is required to make Alan Moore happy.  It's no different than when my neighbors went bat shit because someone bought the empty lot next to them and built a house on it.  They kept saying, "But it was the

I would love to see them try to handle it.  I think the eras where being of color or female would be a problem are slightly more numerous than you, especially being female.  Women have been second class citizens in most societies (but not all) until the last 100 years, or less.  And in some parts of the world, they

I didn't get that.  My understanding was that at the end V understood that his extremism had to be left behind the same as that of the government, and that it was up to the actual people to make the change.  At least, that's what I took out of it.  And if that wasn't clear enough, it was still closer to the spirit of

Forget race, I just see Chiwetel Ejiofor as the perfect choice. He's not too famous, and not really too associated with any other part, as are many of the other choices mentioned in this thread.  Much as I'd like to see any number of the people mentioned here as the Doctor, most of them don't have the perfect

The West Texan with the British mother.

Hey, you just cast the 12th, 13th, and 14th Doctors!

It would be weird to have a Doctor who could just kick the shit out of most of his opponents.  Watching him beat The Master to death would be pretty funny, however.
