Another example of a cover that vastly improves on the original version: “Stripped”, by RAMMSTEIN. Makes the Depeche Mode one look kindy wimpy and dour in comparison. (Warning: their video uses clips from a Nazi propaganda film made to promote the 1936 Olympic Games in Berlin, but I think they did that for some

For a long time, I thought this song was a Billy Idol original, until I found the OLD version from the 60's:

The first time around, yeah. After your next visit, you find out it sucks.

For anyone who’s been wondering who were the real Saphrax and Alatheus since the last episode, 5 years ago, here ya go:

Wow, time sure flies. 20 years since the pilot episode, and 5 years since the last one. I hope this movie ties everything up and lets the show end on a high note, if it can’t get renewed.

IF WB/Discovery/whatever-they’re-called will pay for more.

And blackmailed him with the sex tape they made with Jill St. John and Stella Stevens (RIP).

Exactly. If he had a supervillain codename registered with the Guild of Calamitous Intent, I’d guess it’s The Supreme Cancelor. And cancelling The Venture Brothers at all was at least a Level 6 Arching.

Because the Martian make-up is expensive and time-consuming to put on and take off.

  • If it wasn’t possible before now to agree with what’s being said but still zone out from HOW it’s delivered, I found a way. I heard all of this last year on the news, and I’m thinking “Yeah, I get it, now suit up and hit something! This is a superhero show, not Award-Bait Prestige Drama.”

Orland and Joey are also aliens, right? Aliens with powers?  I almost forgot that, and this show seems to totally forget they are.

I thought Supergirl being stuck in the Phantom Zone AND the gap between season halves WAS the maternity leave. Also, as I’m typing this, I’m watching Melissa Benoist on Jimmy Kimmel Live, and she just said her son is 14 months old now. How long ago did they record this show?!

I don’t really sympathize with Nyxly. Sure, she tried to overthrow her dad, and got sent to The Phantom Zone(s) for her trouble, but would she have been a better ruler of the 5th Dimension? Hell, most times in our OWN dimension, governments get overthrown more often than not by someone WORSE!

Dig didn’t appear on Black Lightning? Wow, wasted opportunity! Feels like the first place for him to go on his After-Arrow world tour.

If Dig does a guest spot on Stargirl, which I thought is on another universe, that would be impressive.

She was on Merlin? The show that had John Hurt voice a talking dragon? How did I forget that?!

I don’t remember that happening, but I forget a lot of what happens in these shows after watching them, because UUUUUUGGGGGHHHHHH there’s so much to catch up on! If Lex didn’t needle Brainiac-5 with comparisons to his more infamous, villainous forebear, BRAINIAC-1, he should have. It just feels very “Lex”, doesn’t it?

But Nia and her sister are both half-human, half-whatever-alien-race-can-do-that-stuff, right? Maybe that affects who gets powers and who doesn’t? Same for the Kent twins.

I had a problem believing that because at that point, Sam was working for the Air Force again. THAT’S his income!

I can’t really buy Supergirl being “I-can-change-Nyxly’s-inherent-psychopathy-with-niceness!” level naïve after 6 seasons.
