  1. Oh where, oh where has my DK gone? Oh where, oh where can he be???

  2. Pat Riley, President and GM of the Heat, should be arrested for Grand Theft! He steals the 25 year old 2-time and current NBA MVP LeBron James. With James, Wade and Bosh the Heat have 3 of the top 10 players in the NBA. All they need is some minimum guys and some role players to surround them. This is going to be fun!
  3. No Norton? That is unfortunate. But, that has been the trend for the last 2 hulk movies. Eric Bana was replaced in the re-boot by Norton. Norton's Banner was much closer to the current version of Banner in the books, he had a little bit of an edge to him. I thought he would have been good in the Avengers movie. I've read in a lot of places that he is a control freak, but in the end it was probably a financial decision. I am starting to think Marvel Studios is overwhelmed by this with the Avengers movie, I sincerely hope that is not the case.
  4. HAPPY THREE YEAR HONDOSVERSARY!! :D <3

  5. I actually like the new suit, It's much more functional. I think the Jim Lee's designed suit is a reflection of real-world aspect happening in comic art today. From Nolan's actual technology "Dark Knight" costume, to the the rendering of wrinkles and textures onto photo-realistic digital drawings in most of today's comics. The metal bustier and hot pants were dated. I agree the original always will be the iconic Wonder Woman. But, the fact that most fan-boy illustrations of Wonder Woman were first of a nude pin-up model, shows the impracticality of it. For years I wondered when Wonder Woman ,who is considered to be part of the DC Comics trinity with Batman and Superman, never given a seriously storyline like Batman's HUSH or Superman's "RED SON". The answer might be that the character like her costume, was stuck in the past. Her new suit will bring better and more mature storylines. I am not sure why Stracynski re-did the origin, Although it could be interesting to watch Diana eventually rediscover her origin. This new suit, because it is so functional, might open the door to the Wonder Woman movie that has been stuck in development hell for years. A young actress might now be more willing to play the role since the suit is less skimpy and more serious. Now, I will not hear another person say, How could she fight in the bustier and shorts without her junk falling out!
  6. Since we are finding mock up illustrations, here is what some strongly consider to be Captain America's costume for Joe Johnston's "Captain America". They are done very well, it also has Evans in the mask. For the most part I like it, it's a mix of the classic with the Ultimates version. I like some of the innovations, like the stripes into straps. I think it still could use the wings on the helmet though. Not sure if it's the "doughboy" version, or if it's the modern version. He might not even change costumes. On the whole, I think it looks very good.
  7. I have played and coached American Football, for nearly 20 years. That being said. The most violent sport I have ever seen is women's high school and college soccer. One of my good friends in high school fell trying to come up with a loose ball. she fell to the ground and they kicked her in the base of the skull on purpose. It gave her paralysis for 6 hours, until the the spinal tissue swelling stopped.
  8. I know it's a little more modern than what people are posting. This one, along with BATMAN The Animated Series, are my favorite, very simple but the Seatbelts song is awesome!
  9. Yes, Lost premieres tonight! Cannot wait!

  11. Yeah Metallica I've listen to since middle school! Many things in my life have changed, but I will defend my boys in black. You seem to have the same affinity for them as me Crim. I am positive you are going to enjoy the album, particularly if you maintain a positive attitude towards it. To me they are making a bold statement with this album, they know what brought them here, and they can still produce excellent sonic mayhem!
  12. I have been listening to it all day. Letting soak in all day, on the these sweet Skull Candy Metallica headphones, that came with a download of the album. I highly recommend picking them up. I must say I like Death Magnetic. Welcome back to Kirk Hammett's soaring solos and (thank god) a tight snare drum. It is an interesting mix of James Hetfield current bluesy singing and some much missing moments of true thrash mixed in with hard rock. True, it is not Ride or Master, but then again they are not that band anymore. You cannot expect a band to reproduce their hit albums again. I think Metallica has continued to grow musically they have not been afraid to show that they are master musicians, even if that means sometimes turning down the decibels. There are really really good moments of mayhem that harken back to before the Black Album. I could see how if the listener did not like the 90's Metallica they would not like parts of this album. I like the range that James displays with his voice, true the lyrics have become more simplistic, he is no longer the guy that felt he had to write Fade to Black. But, the new music shows that James still has old demons that he deals with through song. The bottom line its hard to complain about a great album, it can't be too bad when the worst complaint many people have had is that it's just not a epic as early albums from over 20 years ago. The band has changed since then and so have we. This album is better than most of the stuff on American Rock Radio. Its good to have the kings back. I cannot wait to see them add these songs to their classics and take Death Magnetic to the road.
  13. Happy anniversary! Crimson Fire!

  14. WOW! This could be great news! as long as they find a premise and story that works! See Arch, maybe your Ghostbuster groomsmen would work after all!
