X-Crescence VIII: Knockin' on Heaven's Door

[jeangreydp]

? It was in the very first issue. The "all the men are dead" thing. They all bled out the nose and ears. It was yucky.

I never read Y.... but,

One of the things I loved about New X-men was how hardcore Jean looked when she was doing some crazy shit like holding Xaviers mind or piecing it back together etc and her eyes would start bleeding. Nothing cooler.

Blood from the eyes (and taking like a damn champ) = Way Hardcore= JEAN GREY!!!!

[Quarterwolf]

Gotta go for most the night folks.

(hi Joe)

Be back much later after eating and shopping.

Wonder Woman's nose was bleeding thru out #219-220. This made her cool. I must admit. I now like Wonder Woman. A LOT.

And I am now looking forward to Whedon's WW movie.

She's gonna die. You know that right? IC's gonna be her swan song.




yeah it's all rumor.:p

Yes! *lights fires all around CBR* MWAHAHAhahahahahahahaha.......er, why am I burning down CBR?

And when exactly were you gonna tell us about this pyromaniac side you have? Would have been nice to know before you burned the place down.

[jeangreydp]

I know! Jean can be so badass when she's not taking shit from anyone.

I know!!

I heart her and how totally hardcore and badass and awesome she is!!!

*sigh*

[slively]

She's gonna die. You know that right? IC's gonna be her swan song.




yeah it's all rumor.:p

I have heard this. I choose not to believe it. Because I just now decided she is cool. ANd I will be mighty ticked off if they do it.

She whomped Supes butt. :cool:

[jeangreydp]

And I am now looking forward to Whedon's WW movie.


Have they cast that movie yet?

Meanwhile, I think you guys should know there are some kids in the parking lot in front of my building pushing each other around in grocery carts. It's kind of funny because the girl in the cart is screaming hysterically that she wants out and the girl pushing the cart just keeps on pushing.

[The Fury]

I know!!

I heart her and how totally hardcore and badass and awesome she is!!!

*sigh*
Don't worry, we Will see her again.

Pak series made such a mess of things we have to so that it can be sorted out.

She didn't just whoop his butt...she slit his throat for Christ's sake!

Augh! My beautiful couch! :eek:

oops. Sorry Gus!! I got carried away!! It's Flight's fault!!

[slively]

And when exactly were you gonna tell us about this pyromaniac side you have? Would have been nice to know before you burned the place down.

I do not have a pyromaniac side!! Flight used some kinda voodoo on me!! :eek:

[StarsAndGarters]

I know!!

I heart her and how totally hardcore and badass and awesome she is!!!

*sigh*Yeah. I think she shouldn't be an X-Woman when she comes back. A new environment would do her some good.

Don't worry, we Will see her again.

Pak series made such a mess of things we have to so that it can be sorted out.It wasn't that bad...

Okay, so it wasn't good, but it wasn't bad neither.

Except for the Care Bear Stare at the end. That sucked.

oops. Sorry Gus!! I got carried away!! It's Flight's fault!!Now where am I going to sleep? :mad:

[TheWolfOfAsgard]

I do not have a pyromaniac side!! Flight used some kinda voodoo on me!! :eek:


Oh so he's the enabler for your pryo side? HMMMM

Yeah, I thought Beth was the lead in that. Or am I confusing avatars with people again?

Amatuers. Everyone knows that shopping carts are good for jousting.

(and by this i mean... driving in your car while your passenger holds a shopping cart by his door, and there's another oncoming car doing the same. Then you both let go at the same time and.. BOOM! Good times.)

someone at our school got brain damage from that cause the cart tipped over.

Was it you picturing her with Wonder Woamn earlier or was that Fury?

[slively]

I have not read anything yet, so if they have, I don't think it has been revealed. I still cannot decide who I think would be perfect to play WW.

Who do you think would be good?

[The Fury]

*Raises hand*

Although it was Liz with Wonder Woman as I have no idea what Beth looks like.

[slively]

She didn't just whoop his butt...she slit his throat for Christ's sake!

I know!! Talking about badass. I didn't even know she could use that crown as a weapon. :cool:

Sorry. Got names confused. Dammit!

It's magic. That's the only reason it could affect him.

[slively]

Except for the Care Bear Stare at the end. That sucked.

I happen to love that ending. I don't care what any of you say. It was lovely.


Now where am I going to sleep? :mad:

Ummm.....I have a nice fleece blankie you can use.......

[Flight]

The roof... The roof... The roof is on fire...

[slively]

The roof... The roof... The roof is on fire...


Well put it out man. Here, have a bucket of water. Good luck with that.

[The Lucky One]

And with that, it's quittin' time. Have an awesome one, gang, talk to ya all later.

I may never get what I want
But I'm happy just to die trying
And I hope I ain't done nobody wrong
But I miss you smiling
And I'm looking for a cure cause I'm bored to tears
And I'm stuck in here, stuck out here, stuck in here

We lived through another day
It's a good excuse to celebrate
Take a number knock on wood
We'll find a reason to feel good

I know you know I wanna know how I feel
I can't even tell

No one knows nothing about me
I'm guessing I'll just keep 'em guessing
No one sees what I see
This is my blessing
And I'm looking for a way to get out of here
Get me out of here, out of here, out of here

We lived through another day
It's a good excuse to celebrate
Take a number knock on wood
Find a reason to feel good
I know you know you wanna know how I feel
I can't even tell

I'm out of here, out of here, out of here
I know you know I want to know how I feel
I can't tell
I know you know I'll tell you if it's real
It sounded like a bell
I can't even tell
I can't even tell

My favorite part of that was how Jeans eyebrows looked like Xavier's when she was holding his mind in hers.

Aww, Streator voted me Funniest Poster.
Even though I wasn't nominated.

Now thats love.

Of those, I think Evangeline might work. I can see her as WW. I don't know who Baccarin is and Jones is prob def to old.

Someone mentioned Angelina Jolie, but I don't think that would work.

I could TOTALLY see Jolie as Wonder Woman. She's got the action movie experience and she could definitely pass as an amazon.

All she needs is semi-curly hair and she's perfect.

I dunno why, but I keep trying. I have this hope that one day he'll admit to being wrong.

I have actually proven him wrong in the past, and he either simply ignored everything I said, or he strangely stopped posting in the thread.

he will be defeated one day though. mark my words.

Guess why he has been banned from the Comm-board. And people, I have only been to the pub for 3 hours and you build up 5 pages? Damn!

Why does did they call it a MMORPG when MOMRPG sounds better?

I mean the multiplayer and Online swapped.

[Dizzy D]

Am I the only one who wishes that Marvel had bought WIldstorm?

DV8, Wildcats and Stormwatch in the Marvel U? How awesome that would be.

It doesn't matter if either company decides to merge them with their main universe. I like my Wildstorm seperate of the rest. But with Majestic and Captain Atom so close before Crisis... Let's just say Captain Marvel and Blue Beetle used to have their own universes why they mattered before a Crisis as well...

*scared*

Baccarin is Inara from Serenity. She's a little slightly built, but otherwise I think she'd be great.

[slively]

Lucy Lawless or Keira Knightly (after a workout program).


Keira Knightly?! I don't see that at all. Something about her face I think. She needs soup.

As for Lawless, she carries too much Xena baggage.

But I can't come up with anyone. The combination of femininity and toughness is hard to match up.

[Cayman]

Keira would've been a good Jenny Sparks.

Cay

[slively]

Angelina's too freaky for WW. Plus she needs to do more Tomb raider movies.


I agree. Way too freaky. What about Alyssa Milano? She does that whole kung fu thing on Charmed.

Plus, did you see her in the Valhalley ep?

[Joe Zool]

*goes to run and hide from Flight*

Nobody tell him I'm here, okay?

[Dizzy D]

Somebody posted one of the Amazons-actresses on Xena as Wonder Woman, she looked really the part.

Alyssa Milano: ... not really smitten with her. SHe sure is pretty, but I don't think she could pull off Wonder Woman.

hell. It wil probably be Jessica Alba or some other hot at the moment actress.
If she wasn't already doing Jean, I think Famke Jansen could pull off Wonder Woman.

Jessica Alba cannot act. Famke had crossed my mind as well.

oh oh oh I know. How about.....Courtney Love?


You know for the druggie, no acting, no talent, slut, total waste of space Wonder Woman years?

Jennifer Garner? Although Elektra probably put an end to her superhero career :p

Wonder Woman is supposed to be beautiful.

[The Fury]

There is probably not one woman is the film industry that fits the physique of Womder Woman at all.

[Atomic Mongoose]

I think Catherine Zeta-Jones or the mom from Gilmore Girls could pull off a good Wonder Woman. However, with the state of the film industry today, Wonder Woman will probably end up being played by Lindsay Lohan.

I think some things excluded from The Prisoner of Azkaban really affected the story. Plus I think that one was a jumbled mess for the most part.

I can't even remember what they left out.

Man, I've never seen DDM so rabid at going after someone before. He's really beating on poor Mr. Brubaker. Frankly until the man gives reason to be swatted, people should lay off on screaming about a storyline they don't even know the facts to yet. But then, when has that stopped most folks. :p

[Titan Slade]

I agree with Monica being WW, even though the movie would suck. Monica is in her 40's but she looks young enough to pass for a woman in her 30's. And her body(not sure about the face though)is 100% un-cosmetical surjury touched, unlike the 100's of plastic bodied American actresses.

Anyone seen Mind Hunters? I'm watching it right now.

I thought I should clarify that last statement as it has absolutley nothing to do with this awful movie.

In the newspaper everyday, they list the names of the sex offenders who have moved into Arlington. As sex offenders, they have to register and be listed in the paper. And it always says stuff under their pictures, like Joe Schmoe is a first level offender and will definitely continue to offend. :eek:

Well why the hell are you letting him live 10 minutes from my house?!

This is the question I would like answered. I stopped reading the paper because it made me too paranoid.

Now, back to this movie. GAH. The gross factor is more than I can stand.

Yeah small town newspapers are even worse. They list what peole have been arrested for. One man hung himself after the paper printed that he had been arrested for public sex with another man. His kid found him hanging in the garage.

[TheWolfOfAsgard]

What about Charlize Theron for Wonder Woman?

[slively]

Ebert actually liked this movie. I no longer have any faith what-so-ever in Ebert. He is calling it a "gaudy, vomitorium of a movie. Violent, nauseating and really a pretty good example of the genre. Deliberately disgusting...blah blah, may exercise a strange charm. If on the other hand, you close your eyes if a scene gets icky, here is movie to see with blinders on, because it starts at icky and descends relentlessly thru the depraved and nauseating to the embrace of roadkill. How can I possibly give The Devil's Rejects a favorable review? A kind of heedless zeal transforms it's horrors. The movie is not merely disgusting, but has an attitude and a subversive sense of humor. It's actor's venture into camp satire, but never seem to know it is funny. Their sincerity gives the jokes a kind of solemn cackle. Consider the fact that it is about a depraved family of mass murders, who name themselves after Groucho Marx characters and that the sheriff calls in a film critic to give him insights into their pathology."


I fail to see the humor. AT ALL.

She's already doing Aeon Flux, so maybe not. I'm of the thought that an unknown might be a better choice, like they did with Superman,twice.

An unknown would be great and I could see Joss Whedon pushing for that. But Hollywood will probably have another idea.

[Karl J. Barnes]

Though I like doing the "casting game", I'll just wait and see who'll be who and then go from there. Less chance of being disappointed.

[slively]

Yeah small town newspapers are even worse. They list what peole have been arrested for. One man hung himself after the paper printed that he had been arrested for public sex with another man. His kid found him hanging in the garage.

I know. I lived in a small town. Every little thing was in the paper. DUI, domestic dispute,etc.

But in this case, these are major league sex offenders and the paper is required to print the info. I swear to you at least 6 sex offenders move to Arlington every day. This puzzles me. Either the number of sex offenders has risen to unbelieveable levels, or Arlington is doing some serious recruiting.

Arlington just wants to be showcased on Bill O'Reilly...it's a desparte scheme to bring in tourists to look at the freak show...

Hmmmm...I must give this some thought. I would have said no outright, but she looks more likely since I saw the Aeon Flux look. Probably the best choice we have come up with so far.

[slively]

Ebert has been lost ever since his boyfriend Siskel was taken untimely from us. He has no taste guidance anymore.


I see that. He has gone so far afield on this one, I fear for him.

Leonard Maltin is my fav critic for the most part.

Ah, I did not see your post before I posted! And that is possibly the best idea. Then no one goes in with any pre-conceived notions.

Some actors are just so melded with some of their past characters that it gets hard to overcome that.

This movie is crap, but it has some damn fine music in it.

Batman and the Monster Men by Matt Wagner. Just a fun comic and I am enjoying the Thor mini-series,too.

I got that as a preview issue!! I had not considered reading it until now.

Haven't read the Thor one. I plan on reading Batman Gotham County Line.

[Karl J. Barnes]

I'm reading this mini,too. It is pretty creepy, but Steve Niles seems to do this with everything that he writes.

* Depressed that getting voted off X-Cres wasn't "news". Now I have to stand in the water and my feet are all pruny.

The Thor mini is just great for words. Hercules was a riot.

[StarsAndGarters]

Now tell me something interesting. What was your fav comic this week?Books Of Doom was really good, but Deadly Genesis was even better. Brubaker totally kicked ass this week. I also read the reprint of the Kevin Smith Spider-Man issues. I wasn't reading back then but I'm glad he's finishing them. The chemistry he infuses Pete and Felicia with is so great. The Thing gave me a few chuckles but it seems to me that it's more of a place for Dan Slott to try something less manic and go for some more substance. I'll admit, it's not deep literature, but it's sure more serious that GLA.

I am not a Spidey fan, but that Black Cat stuff caught my eye. So I am getting it.

I have only read the first few pages of Deadly Genesis, but I loved those pages!! They made me happy. I could not ask for more from a comic.

Wow, that's harsh. I just went after four characters- Emma Frost, Hellion, Beak and Pete Wisdom. I feel bad about Beak- a little- but didn't think his Exiles presence was worth it.

So, anyway, fan fave in Excalibur/X-Factor... um, *lies* everyone loves... Aquaman. Yeah, he's on that thread, right? Promoting that PS2 game of his.

Harry Potter & The Goblet Of Fire kicked the week 3rd movie's cgi-butterfly-covered ass!!!

And the Superman teaser looked really good on the big screen. Didn't get much of a response from the audience though.

Also, the scene in the newer Kong trailer where Kong jumps up to swat at the bi-plane while he's on top of the Empire State Building is so cool.

CayWe didn't get the Superman trailer. I wonder why.

Cay, did you read the book ahead of time? If so, do you think you would've found the movie coherent if you hadn't? Ever since Columbus left, it seems like all the motivations and explanations have been swept away. Still, I agree, much better than PoA.

[Jake V]

We didn't get the Superman trailer. I wonder why.
Because it's not an attached trailer, just a suggested one. Theaters get a list of trailers that the studios want on the movie when they have the same movie in multiple theaters. Like, Harry potter in theater 1 gets list A while the one in theater 2 gets list B. The Superman Returns trailer might just be on list A.

I know this from being a a theater manager/projectionist for a while a few years back.

Ah. Thanks. That almost makes sense, but I would've imagined that they'd want to drum up the Superman film, at least over the Happy Feet or Over the Hedge. Maybe tomorrow we'll see it in IMAX. I do wish they were using the larger SHIELD. But then, I'd make Alex Ross the consultant for the look of EVERY comic book character transcribed to the movies. Not the story editor, but definitely would love him on visuals.

It really doesn't make all that much sense. Putting an Aeon FLux trailer in front of a Harry Potter movie doesn't seem like the best idea. Back when I was putting the movies together, I'd throw out the list and use whatever trailers we had that made sense for the audience.

My sister has an extra ticket to go see the broadway show "Wicked" which wanted to see while I was in NY, but couldn't. So I get to do that today!

I do think there's a law requiring British citizens to worship Monty Python. Or is that geeky American college kids. I'm always confusing the actual inhabitants of Great Britain with their poseurs.

There's a picture on Men's Health of Adrien Brody with shirt shirt open and his chest all shaved and ripped. It looks kinda weird. He's so skinny-looking.

Wow, DDM really does just live in his own reality, doesn't he?

How does Wicked Witch of the West relate to Getting in the Shower?

Kind of a thing that she would want to avoid,isn't it.

You're just figuring this out??? You should have read some of his political posts on the Comm Board.

Morning, fellas!

So, I just woke up to some pretty good news.

My sister has an extra ticket to go see the broadway show "Wicked" which wanted to see while I was in NY, but couldn't. So I get to do that today!

I have had an amazing two weeks. Something horrible is going to happen to me.We tried to get into Wicked after we saw Spamalot, but couldn't get tickets. Ah well.

Deb bought the soundtrack and read the book it is based on. Very, very different, apparently. As near as I can tell, it's just something in the tradition of "Grendel" or "The True Story of the Three Little Pigs", yes?

Yes,it is. The author has also written two other such books based on fairy tales, like Cinderella and A Christmas Carol(Dickins). Each book tells the story from an unlikely person,like in Cinderella re-telling, it is the "evil" step-sister and I think the Dickins re-telling is by Marley's Ghost. The Dickins re-telling is titled Lost and I believe the Cinderella one is titled The Confessions of a Evil Step Daughter or something like that.

If its the one I just saw in the store, he's also written a new one titled Son Of A Witch. Not sure what that one is about though.

I believe the author's name is Gregory Maguire.

Yep that's him.

I usually have him on ignore, but I thought his little Ed Brubaker thing might be funny, but instead it just made me fear for the future of humanity. Back on ignore he goes.

Yes, DDM is nuttier than a treeful of squirrels, and the Superman teaser trailer blew. :p

Son of a Witch is a sequel to Wicked. Deb bought it.

Any good?

There was a lady back in the 90s I think who told the story of the Phantom of the Opera. That was a pretty good read.

I wanted to see Kevin Spacey. Course I'm going by the one they showed during Smallville. They are rewriting the first movie a little it seems although Singer said this one takes place after Superman 2

They're not rewriting the first movie at all. It does take place roughly five years after Superman 2. And from everything I've read so far, the film is going to be a massive dog. :(

Ok maybe not a complete rewrite. Some of the things might just not have been mentioned in the first movie. But
The crystal ship was destroyed in the first one when he landed. It was a black ball. Yet they show him standing in front of one in SR. One that is still almost completely whole.

[Karl J. Barnes]

As long as this Superman movie is cool, I'll be able to forgive any and all miscues and errors pertaining to the first and second movies.

I think everyone will be good but Kate Bosworth. I'm still puzzling over why she is saying that she is playing Lois like Katherine Hepburn. Spacey will be the best part I have no doubt on that.

On the Crystal Ship:
It's a new one from the Fortress of Solitude that he uses to journey to the remains of Krypton to discover if there are any more Kryptonians out there. That's why the film is called 'Superman Returns', he's been gone from Earth for 5 years on this journey.

Haven't read either. It's my mental block about not being interested in such characters.

Deb thought Wicked was very depressing. I dunno if she's read the second yet or just gave it to my sister, who's seen the musical and read the first book.
