I could be wrong, but I think Tom Welling kept insisting it be put into his contract that he’d never be in full costume. He didn’t want to get typecast - good thing too, because he’d never have had the post-show career that he’s had otherwise!

Was he actually shown, even? As I recall, there was one shot with a very very tiny Superman in it, and that was it. I held out hope til the very last second that it’d end with him flying past the camera high above the earth and smiling at us, a la the Christopher Reeve movies. I wasn’t surprised that it didn’t, but…

Literally, what?? Why would I do that? I'm a fan and would like to see particular episodes from the books depicted on the screen. 

No, not perfect, but pretty good overall, and parts were VERY good- I thought the best part by far was the animated kidnapping and chase sequence. If there’s more of that classic Disney adventure/peril quality, then bring on more!

Oh yeah - Hot Fuzz is so brilliant in how it teaches the viewer everything needed to know about action movies (two in particular), and then it enacts what it taught to genuinely exciting and even moving effect (shooting yer guns into the air and going “AAAAAAAUGH!!” is surprisingly affecting, and not just because it’s…

And then chuckling self-impressedly at the cleverness of his interpretation. Nimoy refused to commit to it with the script as it was first written, btw, because it strayed so far afield from what had been established as Spock’s character. Shatner had to make changes before Nimoy would come aboard.

If Star Trek V is a cookie that’s too something, I’d say it was too...cheap. Like, Shatner wasn’t allowed to go shopping first, and was only allowed to make cookies with the ingredients that had been sitting in the cupboard of a kitchen which hadn’t been used or entered for years - the vanilla with the lid not screwed…

And I think it’s “Kinsky”

Huh, Kinja must be broken. It brought me right to your comment.

Oh, “Superman II”. Richard Lester. Let’s just not.

But what about saying it in order to make it so? “I know you are, but what am I?” and “YOU’RE the REAL racist!” seem pretty American to me right now.

I’m assuming you mean “Well why apologize, when someone’s not going to accept it anyway”. Which, I guess is true - apologizing doesn’t undo what is being apologized for, and people will do what they want in response, but it’s weak tea as far as being a self-justification for not apologizing, if apologizing is the…

It amuses me when people type things like “I LOVE Emily Blount!”. I can’t help it, it just does.

It seems apropos to mention here - the novel “Peyton Place” is a GREAT read. Unlike most of those hugely popular novels of the 20th century that EVERYONE read and were made into big movies but are not worth the time now (Gone With The Wind, Valley Of The Dolls, JAWS, et al). “Peyton Place” is what a page-turner is -…

I’m no expert, but a penis hitting the physical barrier of the vagina repeatedly is known to be a cause of female pain during vaginal intercourse. The - uh - ingress/egress is stretchy, and god knows the cervix is stretchy, but the vaginal wall is not so much, I think.

But that’s what “I’ve contended” means, right? “I think”? Yes. So what good would that do...

Well...it was kinda slow...

I kinda liked it though. It seemed...earnest. 

Just want to say - SERIOUSLY SICK OF THIS SELF-RECYCLED CONTENT.

Was Prince Phillip up there, did I miss him? That’s the one from Sleeping Beauty, right? He was my favorite, strangely because of his way with an arched eyebrow (and his haircut in the back too).
