Hey what do you have agains tree huggers? Have you ever hugged a tree before? It feels great!

And please do tell me you care about the nature, at least a little bit...




I know you were talking to Chaltab, but I just wanted to set the record straight. I for one, am very environmentally friendly and have a great deal of respect for nature. I just don't need it in my cartoons, damnit. It was tough enough to have to listen to Roadbock tell me not to jump my bike over downed powerlines, I REALLY didn't need some wussy superhero beating environmentalism into my head.

Comic book movies - who says yes and who says no?

I'll give Superman a shot. I kind of like the idea of casting an unknown as Superman. If they got some larger-than-life star to fill the cape, it might detract from the overall film and be a distraction. Also, this may sound silly, but I thought it would be cool if the Watchowski Bros. directed Superman. They'd certainly be better than McG. I think that guy is the devil incarnate.

I'm not overly fond of comic book movies (probably because I'm not really into comic books). However, I can understand their appeal and don't mind the fact that they are around. The problem I have, though, is that due to the initial box office success and general favorable opinions of Spider-Man and X-men, movie companies think that as long as their movie is a comic book adaptation, they can do no wrong. And the result? We end up getting some marginal if not really lousy movies. I mean Daredevil? What is this crap?!?! I guess I just feel they kind of drag the whole genre down.


Anyway, I really like the X-men movies. Not only are they well done, but I like the casting choices (with the exception of Halle Berry). UnfortunatelyI just can't get into Tobey Maguire as Peter Parker/Spider-Man.
