So, nobody ever used him as a tool to wipe out drug dealers and commit murder? I guess things could've been worse.

I kind of want Dreamsnake or nothing, anyway.

Well, I imagine they'd take part in the fight against Thanos and probably help the Fantastic Four stop Galactus.

So they've got one speed and their list of tricks are limited to "move your feet in a wave-like motion." Pass.

I trusted women completely, until a couple of them cheated on me.

I say this not inviting doom nor snarky remarks. I mean it honestly, wholeheartedly, and completely straight-faced.

The lack of interest in meat could be a texture thing, since his or her sense of taste is going to be pretty basic through the toddler years. My parents once told me that they couldn't get me to eat meat until they tried smoked brisket of all things. My taste for other meats grew from there. Apparently, I loved to

My only issue with a woman taking over is the same issue I'd have with another man taking over and calling himself Thor. The name. Thor is not a codename he goes by to hide his secret identity. It's who he is, it is the name his parents gave him when he was a baby, and the name he has held for thousands of years. It's

I guess the only thing we can do is...call up Marvel, James Gunn, and Glenn Close, and tell them we need a Nova Prime movie. It won't be urban fantasy, but science fantasy/superhero is definitely in the same neighborhood.

Yes. That's what he's remembered for. Heh.

There's some kung-fu roleplaying game (Legend of the Five Rings, maybe), in which there's a Scorpion Clan of ninja assassins (who would never call themselves such, there's no such thing as ninjas, silly) tell a slightly different version of that story.

I always found it interesting that amnesiac Light was a better person than L. L's plan to let people die in order to prove the truth was ghastly, Light's quick thinking, the simple idea that they could prove the people they were observing were guilty by convincing them not to kill anyone, was brilliant. Light without

We could just do a mashup of "No Children" with The Smashing Pumpkins' "Tongiht Tonight."

That's the trick: you never come back. You become a legend.

"Sorry, I have to take this."

Now playing

I heard them for the first time as I was nearly at the end of a very ugly, hate filled relationship. It was "No Children." Hearing a song that expressed the same sentiments I was feeling at the time made me realize I was crazy for having that kind of "Let's just let hit the wall and kill us both" kind of mentality.

Yeah, I think they hired her to be Glenn Close, not to be any sort of real representative of the Nova Corps.

I think he does the straight man more often, but it seems like everyone in Airplane gets a turn at having a moment that's so completely serious it becomes ludicrous.

It was definitely a case of having the perfect actor for the character. Actually, most of the cast falls into that, which really helped sell the movie as a whole. There's not a single member of the Guardians I would want played by anyone else.

Yeah, extremely intelligent people in close quarters for long periods of time never have sex to relieve tension.
