Superhero films would be improved a thousandfold if only they'd stop having each and every plot revolve around some large-scale, city-or-world spanning crisis. Smaller, low-key storylines have worked well for the comics, so why can't they work just as well for the movies? 

Why can't Batman just go after a gimmickless serial killer who stalks high school cheerleaders instead of some world-spanning terrorist organization trying to blow up Gotham? Why can't Spider-Man just try to help a poor woman escape prostitution and her abusive pimp instead of trading punches with Doctor Octopus or the Green Goblin? Why can't Superman just travel to some out-of-the-way town and put some corrupt oil tycoon and his thugs in their place instead of stopping rogue Kryptonians from conquering the planet? And the list goes on ...

And get Hayden's bitch face as the main image to boot.

Andrew Jackson cast as Spider-man

Anyone know how to contact Mothra?

Beyond Shatner, George Takei, Walter Koenig, and Nichelle Nichols are all still alive. Oh, and so is Grace Lee Whitney.

Good -- I love the rain.

To be both, it'd have to be "Bad Bad Mother Fucker".

^YES.

^Just take a gander at the Star Trek thread.

But anyway, in tribute to Mr. Nimoy, here's the best non-Trek related thing he ever appeared in:

I thought testing hair products on animals was inhumane, though.

I have no issues with hard work. I applied for the job, because it was physical.

Sorry, but I couldn't resist. =D 

^Which one is bad, though? Himself or his mother?

Are there any NJO novels that people here actually like?

I remember liking the last two books* in the Force Heretic Trilogy, largely because they dealt with the Unknown Regions.

*I never read the first book in the trilogy. Being an in medias res kinda kid when I was younger, I didn't mind starting in the middle of a story. 

God, I hope not.

Look at DanFun putting his moves on this unsuspecting lady... way to go you sly dog.

Too much brown to be DanFun. Could be one of his relatives, though.

I do have to say it would have been epic if he had been in Star Wars.

Yeah, I was holding out hope he'd get cast in one of the future entries of the sequel trilogy. That's out the window now, though ...

Oh, well, I'll spiritually cast him in my ST re-write when I get around to writing it someday.

^*sigh*

The thing that bothers me is that Maria-bot from Metropolis is basically Threepio's mother.

Whether it's Luke and Leia kissing or Little Orphan Annie redirecting his oedipal fantasies onto Padme, incest is a cornerstone of the SW Universe. You're just gonna have to get used to it. 

^The cure is definitely worse than the disease in this case.

I plan on incorporating Tarkin into my Episode II re-write and showing him as someone who doesn't get along well with Obi-Wan or Bail.

I also plan on eventually revealing the history between Vader and Ozzel, but that's for an entry in a spinoff trilogy which doesn't directly tie into my PT re-write.

You're realizing this only now? ;-P 

I'm still waiting for a rumour that says Kylo Ren is really a protagonist to show up. Every time it fails to make an appearance, I grow a little more jaded.

You have tried to convince me that what you say is right.  According to you, not me, this is imposing one's belief on others.  You want me to share your opinion.  That is what wishing one's opinion were shared means.  According to you, if you ruled the world, you would force me to share your opinion.

I'm starting to get the impression that imperialscum is projecting his own mentality onto others. Maybe he really would impose his beliefs on others had he the chance.
