The only good DC books are the ones that pretended the reboot never happened, like the Batman books, the Green Lantern books, Aquaman, Animal Man and Swamp Thing (not that the latter two had been doing much lately anyway). All the ones that are "new" versions of the characters just aren't "clicking". Superman, JLA,…

Here's a great idea for Tron 3: have TRON in it. You know, the guy with his name in the title. Tron. The character. Who was in the first movie but only in a flashback in the second (f*** you Rinzler was not Tron he was Rinzler). So, you know. Maybe put Tron in it. Just a thought.

Obligatory.

Makes sense. Why have a QR code that forces people to get out their phones, fiddle around to find the right app and then hope their camera can read it? Easier to just have something that says www.thisisourwebsite.com.

Stanley Kubrick didn't "think it all out", it was Arthur C. Clarke who wrote the film screenplay and the novel. Kubrick was the director. If you like "realistic" science fiction you should read Clarke's books.

At this point is there anyone under 30 who DOESN'T play video games once in awhile?

Well hell, why not just get a 3D printer and make my own figures? :P

I played 40K for ten years but recently gave it up and sold my armies. GW is too focused on wringing every last penny out of the books and figures, in my opinion. Giant $60 rulebooks, $50 for a few pieces of plastic, and rules that continue to emphasize larger armies, forcing players to buy more of the…

Yeah, DC would have been better off doing what Marvel did, and establish the main characters with their own movies and then bringing them together in a JLA film. ESPECIALLY now that Marvel's proven that it can work, and work spectacularly. But no, they want to lump everyone in a JLA movie FIRST? Why can't DC make a…

I'll see your transforming jets and raise you a PLANET.

It's too much for a first movie. You can't go cosmic right off the bat, that sort of thing needs to be saved for a sequel, once the audience is familiar with the characters and their dynamics. You need a villain a little more down-to-earth and at least SLIGHTLY relatable.

It depends what you define as something he "did". Regarding directing, you need to remember that he only directed the first Star Wars movie and nothing else until the first prequel. Hell, he only directed two other films before that.

It seems like each Jaeger is from a different nation/region. I imagine if the entire planet is under attack and all leaders go "yeah, this seems to be the only way we'll win" and sets every scientist and industry to making these things, they'd get made relatively quickly.

Same reason you take a machete with you when you hike through a jungle: too much s*** in the way.

If you watch the shot of the creature ripping up the bridge, it has multiple arms too. So maybe that Jaeger is a response to that monster.

It wasn't the mechanical and moving bits on the bots that were the problem, it was their silhouettes. Their basic shapes were so jagged with things STICKING OUT all over the place that your brain didn't know where to look. However, if an arm has the outline of an arm then the mind skips over the details to focus on…

Probably not the best article to drop this in, but I thought I'd mention the Kickstarter of a group making a modern version of Dungeon Keeper called "War for the Overworld". They're releasing regular updates and have a playable showcase. Dungeon Keeper was one of my favourite games and I'd love to have a new version…

It would be SO perfect if the AI turned out to be evil and turned against them. :)
