Re: Dragonball Z: History of Trunks
Part of me gets why this was chosen... but like... really? It's a great special, not sure what version of it he was watching where it was the old dub but... included the tv bumpers? I've never seen those bumpers in my life, they didn't even air over here. Nor are they part of the DVD version of this...

Re: Empire Strikes Back
It's definitely not characteristic of the main audience, which is the moviegoing crowd, but then, people will just swallow whatever shit is thrown on the screen. There is absolutely no reason Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen deserves to have made that much money. At all. So maybe I'm just jaded....

Re: Empire Strikes Back
Revenge of the Sith was a movie that could and should have been great but lacked the foundation to be great on. Still better than the predecessors. Abrams can create watchable trash. I'm going to come right out and say it: Episode VII is nothing but a shallow ripoff of ANH with the artificial stake...

Re: Justice League Unlimited 'Question Authority'
They don't show us when it starts; we first learn about it at the end of the Captain Marvel episode as a twist. Possibly we can infer that Cadmus had a hand in getting Lex out of prison in the first place in return for his assistance, but it's speculative. Nope actually we see how Lex got out of pr...

Re: Justice League Unlimited 'Question Authority'
In other words, Registered heroes probably wouldn't have been any more capable of stopping Nitro, or similar bad guy who is behaving so radically different. But they would certainly be able to handle 99% of the other situations they get into (like say, not having your girlfriend's neck snap because...

Re: Empire Strikes Back
even if that something was tedious edgelord bullcrap that makes Revenge of the Sith look like a triumph of cinema. I'm not going to watch episode 9. I have no confidence in Abrams as a filmmaker, and Johnson successfully destroyed any interest I might have had in seeing where the boring plot thread...

Re: Justice League Unlimited 'Question Authority'
I think it's more a case that the writers wanted to tell a story questioning whether an organization like the Justice League should really be trusted with such vast power and no oversight, but realized that, in real life, the answer would be, "No, they shouldn't." Since that would kill the show, an...

Re: Justice League Unlimited 'Question Authority'
The same argument is made by every drug pusher in existence, and also in reverse by every addict in existence. You can stop anytime you like, just after this one. Not really the same thing, not exactly. You could say that a strength of Batman is that he won't take the easy way out and kill his vill...
