My thought was that each spine color was going to be a different color. However, they (HBO) just got lazy and used the old set up when season 3 came along. Just my opinion. But I was actually looking forward to different colors after 1 and 2 came out. When 3 came out with the revert back to clear spine, I knew it was going to be a problem.

And, yes, I agree with you. The Goblin's costume was my #1 sticking point with the first movie. Another reason why I like the second so much better, the villain looks like the villain I remember. Alfred Molina was great in that movie.


I gotta say the XMEN movies have been way better than Spiderman. I havent seen Spiderman 2 yet but I don't really want to because I thought the first one sucked. Regardless of how accurate either series are to the comics (I really don't care), X-MEN to me has 10x better acting, 10x better script, and just more enetertaining period.

Tim Burton's Batman all the way.

New Batmobile is more in line with Frank Miller's vision of Batman, which makes sense, since Batman Begins is based heavily on Miller's Batman: Year One. Given the talent involved on this one, it'd take an awful lot of studio meddling to screw it up.

Warner wants to do SEs of the first 4, but it's having trouble getting its scheduling right with Burton and Schumacher.

Okay, skip Schumacher and focus on Burton. His are the important ones anyway. Although I would only be buying the original.

The first Batman is great, athought the plot around the Joker is a bit silly, with all those balloons and poisoned cosmetics. It has the perfect dark, sinister feeling only Burton could deliver. The second one gets even sillier, I mean, how did the Penguin accomplished to create those robot-penguin things?

And then... Joel Schumacker was hired, and everything became a blur. Jim Carrey in a Batman flick. Val Kilmer. George Clooney. And then there's Batman & Robin, which is probably one of the worst movies ever. It's not even a bad Batman movie, it's a bad MOVIE. Bad, bad, stinky, MST3K-like bad movie.

I'd buy the first 2. I loved the twisted nature of the 2nd.

So would I! But there are three entities that would all have to come to an agreement for that to happen. Fox owns the series, andWarner Bros. owns Batman & Robin (the characters). However, the guy that created Batgirl, when he left DC Comics, agreed to allow her to be published in comic books, but hasn't yet agreed to have her on any other form of media.

I've enjoyed what I've seen of AD. A smart and funny little show.

Princess Leia: I happen to like nice men.
Han Solo: I'm a nice man.

Brilliantly funny. Too bad it doesn't get the viewers that it should. Critics love it. FOX just makes the mistake of programming it along with blatant comedies like Malcolm, Simpsons, and King of the Hill. Shouldn't be in there.

Personally, I think it's a little too subtle for Fox, period. CBS would do better with it, or even UPN.

I've been reading rumors that Voltron might be coming to DVD. I hope it's true. That show is still one of my guilty pleasures.
