Great Ceasar's Ghost!
O-Kay. Well, I guess if a Black man can be Nick Fury, then why not?
A 21st Century Spider-Man (For SOME Of The COMICS ONLY)
I remember a few years back, when Spider-Man was Indian. Then there was that Japanese version from the 1970s.
Stan Lee has often said that kids like Spider-Man because they could imagine themselves behind the mask. Of course, Marvel loses nothing by doing this; Spidey here is the Ultimate Universe version. The “real” Spider-Man—the one that Marvel will still sell everywhere on television and in film, the first one kids will think of—is still young, white, and skinny Peter Parker.
"Grant Morrison: Talking With Gods"
Grant Morrison’s misses in comics are better than most people’s successes. He is a brilliant creator who wrote Possibly The Best Superman Story Ever. His run on Batman, not yet over, is quite good, too! So I was happy to find out that this was on Hulu.
Another Clip From "Captain America"
Nope. Still not obsessed. Not even a little. 🙂
A Small Sample Of Comic Con 2011
Wow! My Geek People were out there in full force! And boy, does that guy look like David Tennant, or what? 🙂
GREAT Fan-Made "Avengers" Trailer
What, me, obsessed?!? OF COURSE NOT…….Really! LOL! 🙂
AUGUST 12th UPDATE: This one is pretty good, too.
And Now, Cap (and "The Avengers"!!!!)
To be honest, I had to surpress a giggle when I walked up to the box office and said, “One for Captain America.” The giggle told me that I had been waiting to say that since I was at least eight.
The new film is borderline GREAT. (I think the chemistry between the male and female leads needed a little tweaking, but I’ll be happy to see it again and again until I ignore that and move it up past the border.) It is EASILY the best superhero movie of the summer. I LOVED seeing “The Howling Commandos” in this film! And the ending…..! And the post-credits scene/trailer! 🙂
*SPOILERS*
*END OF SPOILERS*
This film almost put tears in my eyes because it was so much better than those awful 1970s television movies and that 1990 straight-to-DVD film.
I never thought of Captain America as a patriotic, white-supremacist figure; I liked him because he was colorful, kicked ass and had that great shield.
It’s a wonderful thing to have a goal. Mine: to see a GREAT “Avengers” movie on May 4, 2012!
Okay, Here It Is! "The Amazing Spider-Man" Trailer
Hmm….a little darker this time (including the parents‘ backstory is a good idea in this regard)….. I’m sure it’ll be great, but talk about deja vu…. 🙂 I hope this franchise won’t be rebooted every decade. I mean, does Peter Parker have to be perpetually 17, like Archie Andrews?
