Re: Official Star Wars Thread
The bottom line is that SW was a one-off story about a farm boy who joined a resistance and brought down a corrupt government. Everything else away from that core does seem bolted on, with a lack of really tangible interconnecting tissue. Maybe if they were able to tie things more closely to that c...

Re: Official Star Wars Thread
Anyone who might've had bad feelings over Disney causing Cartoon Network's Clone Wars to be prematurely cancelled .. just felt those feelings completely evaporate in the course of three minutes. Took a season, but with the canonical Clone Wars crossovers, think they've found their groove-- Now it's...

A movie where we hate Superman? Yep, sounds like Snyder.

Yeah, but in Singer's movies, "another character" could mean an unexplained 10-second appearance.ShyViolet wrote:Yeah, I know...yet another character.

Re: YouTube Goodness
Okay, once I realised that this wasn't actually an 80s relic, I agree that this is all kinds of awesome. Giving it the benefit of the doubt, at the beginning, I'd thought it was one of his behind-the-times German things, with the generic English lyrics, and the way it couldn't decide whether to rip...

Re: Official Star Wars Thread
I just died... Still looks like Hamill/Skywalker is going to be the "Old Spock" climactic mentor passing the torch in this one, but boy, they're playing up the fans' OT-actor fantasies but good. :lol: I'm feeling a little more confident about Harrison Ford's cameo after that last stinger, but will ...

Re: DC Universe Animated Original Movies
Trapped in Time is a really odd duck. It's silly fun, and certainly view-able by kids, at least. It's only odd because it came out of nowhere (first as a Target exclusive before going to wide release), and doesn't tie into a toy line or anything current. It is, as noted, a sequel to Challenge of th...

Re: DC Universe Animated Original Movies
Guess I'm the only one who saw "JLA Adventures: Trapped in Time": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3CCketshSyU Doesn't seem to be a DTV movie, so much as a two-part TV episode from a CN series that hasn't aired yet. (Wouldn't say "pilot", since the concept already seems to be set up midway, although ...

Re: RIP Stan Freberg
I also wish Brothers Grimm would get a nice BD transfer...I think this would sell better than How The West Was Won, that's for sure. Even without the seams erased it would be nice to see the full widescreen framing - the best we have, as evidenced by the clip there - is a pan and scan crop that air...

Re: Will Disney buy DWA?
How long before they finally hit bottom? God, I hope they know what they're doing. :| ... Before they hit bottom? :shock: Y'know that old urban-legend theory, about thinking you can survive a falling elevator if you jump up off the floor just a second before it hits the ground?* In studio terms, th...

Re: Disney Parks
I've always looked upon Disney's California Adventure park as a strange 'franken-mash' of bits of the Florida M-G-M park (Tower of Terror, Muppets 3-D) with some ill-advised 'Cali-themed' attractions (a 'paparazzi' ride? really..? :roll: ) and a few genuinely fun experiences (particularly Soaring O...

Re: Incredibles 2
The UM is not exactly what you'd call a fearsome, professional villain, so I'm guessing he'll be downgraded to "running gag", like Randall in Monsters U.droosan wrote:If the Underminer doesn't at least make a cameo appearance, they'll have to cast John Ratzenberger as another character.

Re: Ant-Man
OK I have no idea about anything Ant-Man related. But who is the villain in this piece if it's not Wasp. That's who I thought he was from the trailer, but Eric just said Wasp is girl. Is he Hornet? Little Angry Yellow Man? Yellowjacket. (Which Pym technically returned from retirement to play, both ...

Re: Absolutely hilarious X-Men episode guide
I have more sentimental memories of the first episode of the 90's series, having grown up with a tape of "Pryde of the X-Men", from Hasbro's GI Joe and Transformers days. Some good points (like the "old-school" Nightcrawler), but overall, owie . When Fox got their 90's series, thought, "Oh, good, th...
