The only really disappointing element for me was hiring the cast/stunt team of The Raid movies and then just have them get tossed around by a tentacle monster instead of throwing each other through space drywall and onto the pointy ends of tables.

I'll definitely have to check out Odallus, as I've been rarely led astray by anything that gets compared to Agalloch so favorably.

I loved the Red and Blue albums but Yellow/Green and Purple just sound like hunger dunger dang alternative butt rock to me.

I'd hate to hear what he thinks of people who hum his songs to themselves from memory.

I think out of any original Image book Spawn is the one that's the most ready for some up and coming indie guy to give it a crazy complete re-imagining ala Prophet.

Probably because it was the 'space adventure' head of the X-Men hydra which is occasionally hit, usually miss.

All of Morrison's ideas and accomplishments being deep sixed seemingly overnight after doing so much to yank the X-Men out of the pit of abysmal, go nowhere plot threads and terrible haircuts made me mostly quit Marvel for a few years until Rick Remender and Jason Aaron showed up to pick up the balls everybody else…

Tell me MOAR

I'd like to see them go full sci-fi ala Call of Duty and have a sequel where everyone gets horribly injured and has to merge with their cars for extreme cyborg street racing missions.

I think my main issue with these in retrospect is that there isn't a Han Solo/Mal Reynolds/Sawyer antihero audience surrogate to swagger in and take all of the hoity toity Jedi down a peg, so the audience is instead expected to mainly sympathize/care about a bunch of rigid figures in brown robes sitting around a…

Most of the reviewers use their children as human shields as an excuse to complain about the lack of splitscreens despite allegedly also being grown men with busy social lives.

"No, dagnabbitt, that was Steven Seagal."

I'm pretty sure the only place I had ever heard this referenced was MST3K.

Thank you for that writeup, it adds a lot of context to the more puzzling elements of it. I did find it slow but my time was not wasted as I could at least try to understand a lot of the choices he made throughout. I even enjoyed the seemingly endless scene of goats chilling out near the end.

I appreciate the update on future consumer products that I can exchange for legal tender!

War Inc was actually the first thing I thought about when I saw this trailer - I think there is a great dark comedy to be made about all of our attempts at 'nation building' in that region but they keep blowing the tone. Let Armando Iannucci do one.

Whenever I see James Urbaniak in real life (i.e. not as a voice) I always have to do a double take because while he doesn't look like Rusty Venture he definitely still retains his voice and mannerisms.

I redboxed this and finished the brief but breezy campaign in 2 days. Thoroughly enjoyed it and I was always much more GI Joe than Transformers as a kid. The irony free insipid dialogue was often hilarious and Megatron got in a few of his usual zingers.

You have some strange metrics as to what you choose to be offended by.

I'd been wanting to read a lot of the new Valiant stuff as they have writers I really like but it seems like there's so much of it so quickly that I wouldn't really know where to start.
