I've always preferred Year One to DKR. (For one thing, I prefer Mazzucchelli's art to Miller's.) But the legacy of DKR is undeniable. It's just a shame Miller went off the deep end after 9/11 and produced that racist garbage Holy Terror.
Show me a comic you loved when you were 13, that's all I need to know about you.
Yeah, I completely got caught up in the Image Comics hype. Spawn in particular rose to the top for me because of how it combined the superhero and horror genres, two of my favorites.
I remember seeing this in the theater with a friend shortly after it came out. Ironically, it was the least cartoonish Batman feature film ever released until Christopher Nolan's trilogy. I wish it had done well.
I just found your separate post about it. Bummer that it wasn't better. I'll still probably check it out, though.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who isn't enamored with it. I felt it basically had one joke that got hammered into the ground over eighty-some minutes. The occasional chuckle here and there, but not nearly as good as other Mike Judge projects.
How was Primitive War?
Like several people here, I watched it because of how great The Matrix is. I can remember hooking up my VCR to the TV in my dorm's lounge. I'm so old.
The guy wants the Nobel Peace Prize so badly that he's trying to start a war with Venezuela. Make it make sense!
Name a film that was actually *better* than the source material.

Has anyone read Frozen Hell, the earlier novella-length draft that eventually became "Who Goes There?" I'm curious if the cuts made to get it down to short story length were to the story's benefit or detriment.
What is the context for this?
And from what I've heard about those "Quiverfull" families, sexual abuse runs pretty rampant.
Yeah. I'm reminded of when conspiracy theorists jumped all over Bill Gates talking about vaccines to help stop overpopulation. They thought it meant he was putting contraceptives in the vaccines, but it actually had to do with children's life expectancy and not needing "back-up" kids.
Because they want to force white women to have more children and outbreed the "scary" brown people.
I couldn't believe how well the effects work held up on that huge of a screen. It still looks better than most things released today. But yeah, overall, the visuals looked so beautiful. It's absolutely the best way to see it.
I get the impression you haven't seen many movies. Anyway, go watch Charlie Shackleton's ten-hour film Paint Drying and get back to me.
My brother showed it to me when I was six, and somehow it really captured my imagination. Getting to see it in IMAX 70mm remains one of my very favorite moviegoing experiences.
And from the accounts I've heard, he was a genuinely good person. My favorite thing he ever did was Masque of the Red Death. I can only assume Roger Corman had seen The Seventh Seal not too long before making it.
When I watched this movie, I wondered if his character being the lead prosecutor in the trial was realistic. It seems like it would be an enormous conflict of interest. Great movie, though.
I just saw this and rather liked it. I don't know why it got such bad reviews and flopped so hard.
They'd all deny that that's the reason they wanted to show to be canceled. Instead, they'd say it's "bad writing." Fact of the matter is that they were hating it before an episode even aired. Hell, they started hating when the cast was announced.
And rob the world of a gender-neutral restroom?
Burn it to the ground to purify the land.
Just think, only a couple years or so after Freedom Cry was released, America started to lose its damn mind.
That's even less convincing than, "I have a black friend."
You'd think so, but we've reached a point in the history of the US where more people are comfortable sharing their racist views and identifying with Klansmen and Nazis.
He'll just shove a marmalade sandwich in that clown's mouth.
In what should come as a surprise to no one, Trump supporters (and conservatives in general) show signs of "malevolent personality traits." After all, these people cheer for and laugh at the su*cides of trans folks, so the glove fits.
