Hhaahaha that's brilliant. I actually love Ellen Page. She's ridiculously awesome in all ways.

Whedon's run is probably the best I've ever read. It's absolutely superb. I checked it out on Amazon too recently because I read most of it in reprints and all 4 books can be found in the region of £25. Not bad at all. The hardback is £30, which is quite alot but it'd look amazing. I want Uncanny to move towards that again, really. I'm hoping (lol) that the Heroic Age thing really does end M-Day once and for all soon. It's an interesting plot but it's been going on for ages now, and while it allows good ideas like X-Force to come through, it's actually counter to the principals of Xavier and Magneto which is the central conflict at the heart of the book. They need something to get back to that, and rebuild the book as a team/ family instead of an army.

They do the same thing for nature programs filmed underwater. They can't use torches to see the fish down there or something so they use filters on the shots done under massive magnification.

Yeah it's looking increasingly like the show is going to hit the ground running. They've gone from commissioning a pilot to a 6 episode first season before they started filming. A sound tactic, given that Breaking Bad started out the same way and that's gone on to pick up multiple awards and massive acclaim. I'm psyched that AMC are doing it too because they're producing better drama than anyone in the business these days.

did we do 'I don't like Mundi's' last year? happy birthdayv

Ladies, please.

As I understand it from the comics, Green Lantern armour isn't a solid material, but rather made of the same energy the ring produces. I'd imagine the glow effect on Reynolds is taking that even further and the whole suit will be 'fluid'

I'd rather post the first image of Ryan Reynolds as Green Lantern

I've been reading up on X-Treme X-Men and I'm sure it's no surprise to any of us that the series was an editorial car crash. It's actually really interesting hearing what Claremont had in mind because it hints that it would have actually been a really good story. Feh. I hate it when you can see the claws of some company mandate ripping up a story before it's time. That said, Claremont can still fucking bite one with his narrative style. It's rank on the palette when you're also reading Morrison. --- I just read Captain Britain and MI:13 Oh my.

Genius. I suppose even a broken clock is right at some point

It seems a kind of trendy thing to do now. World at War had it with Nazi Zombies and MW2 wasn't far off with some of the spec ops challenges. Left 4 Dead got in on the action, too. It's a brilliant idea, really. Cut the story and reduce 4 player co-op to what basically boils down to a single, massive set piece/ chat room. I'd be amazed if kz3 wasn't doing something similar because now that a few developers have done it, it's the kind of thing everyone wishes they'd invented first.

No, well people are fucking weird. The sheer depth of conservatism about sex in parts of America is really quite strange. (but of course you can damn people to hell for it, which is OK!)

Second Coming #2 was pretty good. It was a series of vinaigrettes by different creative teams; Most of it was character stuff but there's a couple of new status quo arrangements that have come up. MAJOR Spoilers below.
-
I could see Tennant in the role, for sure. I'd lol if they did Grey Hulk like in Ultimates. (Green Hulk is Banner's Rage. Grey Hulk is another part of his personality and is based on his spite and resentments.)

Just that she's part of that bad, bad trend in comics where the oriental characters are made western to be acceptable. They wanted a Japanese character but they did it by transforming her from a british body- only wrong, because all of a sudden she's a ninja and wears a kimono, uses a katana and dresses like an anime slut. It's kind of like Iron Fist, only he was updated massively by Fraction and Brubaker (check that out if you can it's ace) and he works again now. Psylocke is just...ridiculous, and her costume is everything wrong with comics.

I'm waiting in wait for Second Coming #2. Hyyyyyyypeee!
-
Ah, that's because you're wrong. :p

20p says it's horde / firefight

The idea that Sheffield is some kind of metropolis amuses me greatly.
-
So who's following Shadowland?
-
The new X-Force is Failsauce. Mostly because of Deadpool. Also because of Psylocke and her racist face.

I'm out of crisps

That's what she said.

Thor, innit.
