I’m now regretting getting out back around the beginnings of the stuff with the Commonwealth. Partially because I was having a better time with the comic than sitting through the ehhhhhhhhh stretch of the series during the Saviors stuff (although it HAS gotten a bit of a kick post-Saviors, along with FtWD), and…

This sounds like Final Fantasy filtered through Kingdom Hearts. Hopefully that means each season will have a subtitle stuffed full of random punctuation and nonsense.

HELLS YEAH. I used to enjoy watching this and what felt like an armada of spin-offs years ago. I even recall feeling vaguely sad when I spent a Halloween night hanging out with a friend instead of sitting in front of my TV watching that year’s Super Duper Halloween Ghost Hunt Featuring Random Celebrity/Celebrities…

I really need to jump on the trades for this eventually. I stuck around for the first 12 issues of his Black Panther run, and just wasn’t totally into it at least partly due to reasons brought up here. I tried his Cap run as a part of my efforts to try and hop back onto a number of “core” Marvel titles last year when…

Well crap. I guess we’ll go with... Arnold Schwarzenegger! HE hasn’t done anything bad.... shit. Okay, okay, maybe focus on someone that was IN a Hercules thing but wasn’t actually Hercules. How about James Woods as Hades in the Disney Hercules? Wait.... SH-

I kind of assumed this would all be non-canon anyway, since I want to say the original premise of Black Label was giving creators a chance to do whatever they wanted with established characters without having to worry about continuity and whatnot. Of course, we saw how THAT went. However, now that Black Label seems to…

I don’t even get this, but it made me laugh, so A++!

It feels like this should be a terrible, sad thing, but I don’t know that it really is. Sure, it’s produced some good things in the past however many years once it moved beyond its best years, but as other places/people have pointed out, the concept that Vertigo represented is a lot more common these days in other…

At least it wasn’t Batman’s shadowy dick!

I guess that adds more reasons for me to switch my favorite Hercules from Sorbo to Lou Ferrigno.

A part of me had hoped I’d be able to be the first to make a joke relating to that, but deep down I knew.... I knew it was unpossible.

Yeah, that’ll do. If only because it reminds me of the Sci-Fi of yesteryear, back when their primary focus usually seemed to be on making sure every Saturday night had a reasonable amount of killer CGI spiders, or killer CGI bigfoots/yetis, or killer CGI sharks, or killer CGI monkeys, or killer CGI snakes, or giant…

I’m pretty sure that was a problem with a lot of horror remakes from the 2000s. See also Sorority Row from 2009. Which admittedly had Carrie Fisher (who died stupidly, but still). But it DIDN’T have that kickass Richard Band score from the original. That music was seemingly far too fancy for a slasher movie.

You know what could’ve added a little extra spark to this? Having it turn into a Q - The Winged Serpent remake halfway through. It’d lose Roundtree for the remaining duration, but I’m sure a suddenly appearing Michael Moriarty would’ve made up for it. And whichever Carradine you could get as a David Carradine…

I kind of understand why they aren’t covering it anymore, due to sometimes feeling like a lesser version of a thing we already have that went through its own period of meh. At the same time, it also seemed really weird that they dropped it right before it actually started to perk up with the influx of new people and…

The fun part now is wondering if this will actually combat the racism and whatnot, or just end up finding new and exciting ways to screw over the non-evil content creators.

Pffffft, we all know it’s actually Lucio Fulci and/or Bruno Mattei and/or Claudio Fragasso.

Also worth noting, Fear the Walking Dead returns for its fifth season, and appears to still be basically functioning at a higher level than it had prior to last season’s round of wiping out a chunk of the remaining old cast and adding in assorted new people. Although being a Walking Dead series, I suppose it’s too…

If they’d only made him look like a Warthog from the Halo games, none of this would have even happened. Plus, we’d have the benefit of the inevitable scene where Simba defeats Scar by jumping a hill in Pumbaa and landing on him, complete with wailing guitars.

That’s amusingly my biggest connection to Backdraft. I’ve never actually seen it (or if I’ve seen it, I’ve only watched a tiny amount), but I bought the soundtrack entirely due to the music being used in Iron Chef.
