I like the short episodes. They're these short bursts of dickery and surreal madness. Short seasons are also a strenght, not having long meandering monologues or introspective but just random, jagged fragments of stories make it all the more interesting.
Like EddieVanBlundth says, it did make me like Radcliffe as an…

I found that strange as well. It's basically like saying "if you don't go to sleep, your professional boxer uncle will come in and beat you up" and then your uncle is right there and is like "the hell dude? that's super harsh. I would never do that."
Made me think that it must have seemed like a good line to show the…

I went to Universal Studios Japan and bought a nice Ravenclaw mug. Cause they are the only ones that feel like a viable choice where you might be a smart and capable person without a whole stereotype attached to you.

Exactly, I don't think everything he says is bull but his jumps of logic and how he uses them to make racist conclusions are just horrible. In case you think I'm a part of this White Power thing going on? I fully oppose his racism and my quoting of his language is for the sake of the argument. Apologies if that's not…

Seriously, that is awesome. You can be the biggest dick for months from now on and I'd still think you're cool. That's how much cred you got just now. Also, you wouldn't happen to know/like Melt Banana?

You have not made a compelling argument why that makes him a "lowly negro"(edit: I'm paraphrasing Mephisto for the sake of the argument, in no way do I approve of this language). It's a very big leap and disgusting as well to be honest. He's had several solo-series, still pops up in team books and was even included in…

Saying that mainstream comics are written overwhelmingly by and for white males is true. As such, there is an overrepresentation of white males in those comics, I agree. However, that doesn't mean that every ethnic or minority character is a token character or a forced diversification move. Lately more and more…

I've been reading Moynihan's Forming online whenever I'm on the train. It is really funny and sometimes makes me go "wait, whut?". No idea how much material there is but I'm just going with it.

Thanks. I didn't know that but I had never heard of them before. They also don't seem like the regular mutant team with regards to their powers. I saw the old X-Force come barging in yeah but again, didn't know they were the real ones.

This is some ridiculous bullshit and the "lowly black guy" makes it full on racism too. Either this is some advanced trolling or just plain ignorant racism. Either way, it's sad.

So it's supposed to be as lame as it sounds (though I didn't consciously get that last joke about trashy pop catch phrases).
Also, in case you're interested, after a break, I'm back on Gargoyles and the Deadly Force episode with Broadway is the first one to stand out for me. I've not been captured yet by the show but…

I finally started the X-Statix omnibus and even though I knew everyone dies early to make room for Milligan's new team, when it happened, it shocked me. That one shot of Zeitgeit all mushed is just nasty. Looking forward to binging this one tomorrow, the art is great and I wonder what kind of stories will be told.…

Personally I'm just not a fan of the artwork in general. I don't like the linework in the faces I think. Dunno what it is especially but it just comes off kinda old in a not charming way, for example that Vivi Viktor face is just ugly to me. Sorry if that's blasphemous to anyone.

I read Daredevil by Mark Waid Vol 1 and 2 this week. They are really fun and the art is great. I like Daredevil's voice, funny and carefree but still room for anger there. The art is brilliant really, the way they focus on little things in a frame or show radar sense, such perfect renditions of how Murdock perceives…

Never heard of that but I can see that amongst Japanese although I would say addiction is a by product of their mindset. They tend to have an all or nothing attitude towards things. They'll be technically proficient in everything they put a lot of time in. For example, for some reason everyone here is amazing at…

Don't forget Godzilla. That movie delivered. The other ones are good too.
Really looking forward to Under The Skin, it's not coming out here so I'll have to wait for the DVD release.

Historically Japan was never colonized by anyone although they were basically held hostage for a while by the USA until they agreed to open their borders in the 1860's. And then occupied for a bit again after WW II.
I would say Billybob puts your point into words really well, as Hollywood and the West have a tradition…

Actually the word brainiac comes from the Superman villain Brainiac, so it wouldn't be that ridiculous.

I second the Full Metal Alchemist manga recommendation and if she wants to see the anime, I recommend FMA: Brotherhood.
For Death Note fans, I recommend Ikigami. The story involves the government randomly selecting people when they're kids to die when they are young adults. This is to promote productivity in society.…

That was pretty great. I'm looking forward to Vol3 where all the weapons are gonna explore Earth. I hope they're gonna hang around and do nothing really.
