Doctor Who' Returns Saturday, September 1st
Jangonate replied to Wheeljack35's topic in Entertainment News
I am a latecomer to the series. My wife and I randomly started watching season 1 of the current series and have been hooked. Almost to season 3 and I don't think we'll be caught up by September 1st so we'll have to DVR. Why did it take so long to discover this show? -
The Dark Knight Rises, Movie Masters....sooner than we thought?
Jangonate replied to MrImpossible's topic in DC Comics
and a weird pink Gleek? Glow in the dark Gleek. -
Wave 1 will not have have Red Robin and SB Prime, they're part of the "21st" wave of DCUC, the final wave with these two. Bats and Supes will be re-released in wave 1. LOL, but they're on the back of the CARD! UGH, there's one more wave, why make it so confusing?!?!? Actually, the reviews are for Batman and Superman from wave 21 of DCUC that is remnants of the All Star waves. It will include all four on the back of the card (Robin, Supes, Bats, and SB Prime). DC and Batman Unlimited have some slightly repainted Bats and Supes. It looks like Superman has a metallic blue to it.

That have certainly set up an intriguing sequel. Blake becomes Batman, things go well at first, but he starts taking it to far with the criminals and Bruce returns to the scene. That would be cool, but Blake's character didn't seem like he could become such a thing. He even had that moment where he threw his gun away.

I know what you mean. With the last name being Blake, it would have been cool to see the first name as Tim and some mention of his last name being different from adoption or something. But, like you said, it would be to obscure for the general movie going audience. Personally, I'm conflicted as to where I want the series to go next. I know that they'll be looking to get Bruce back in the suit with a Justice League movie on the horizon, but I think it would be intriguing to see where this story goes next and Blake's transformation into Batman. What I don't want to see is a continuation

I haven't seen the totals, but what also will hurt them is that this is almost a 3 hour movie. That means fewer showings in a day. I thought it was great, though. Will be seeing it again this week.

Dark Knight Fans Backlash Against Negative Reviews
Jangonate replied to Wheeljack35's topic in DC Comics
Obviously not going to 'lash' out at the critics for not liking the movie and, having not seen it, I can't comment on whether I agree with them or not, but it's interesting to see the few negative reviews and compare them to the positives. The people who liked it didn't just think it was cool. They think it's the best thing since sliced bread. That's why the average rating of 8.3 is right there at Dark Knight's 8.4 even though there are more negative reviews for DKR than DK that give it an 87% compared to DK's 92%. Can't wait to see it tomorrow night and share in the conversation. -
My local comic shop (Sci-Fi Genre) sold New 52 Batman for $16.99, much lower than suggested price. I hope that trend isn't expecting to end with the rest of these New 52 JLA figures or I'l be joining the rest of you.

Very cool! Interested in seeing what the story attached to this is. The trailer implies that something sinister is turning heroes into our enemies. Love the armored look, too, of all the costumes.

Never thought to go to online pickup. I found the Walmarts around me to be extremely helpful with this. In the end I went out pallet diving one night and found them, but only because the associate let me know they were on their way.

Mystery DC character about to be turned gay
Jangonate replied to yojoebro82's topic in General Discussion
Though this has already been moved, I want to bring it back to the original topic. Shazaam was mentioned many pages back as a possibility and I feel this opens up a new can of worms. How old is he in the New 52 as Batson? I can see a few people being more upset with someone making a younger kid gay than an adult. Not that it doesnt happen in real life. Someone my wife knows felt that way at 7. Still, I feel it would make it more controversial. -

Most not all straight males like girl/girl I don't know of a straight guy who wants to see two men kiss.I have nothing against gays but I don't want to see them kiss even if it was drawn Isn't that the problem though? Comic books are mostly made by men for male readers. Having Wonder Woman a lesbian doesn't help people embrace and acknowledge the alternative lifestyle. Rather, it straightens the stereotype of strong women portrayed in the media. It also doesn't help give inspiration to gay male comic readers - other than being a PR stunt, having more diverse characters help diverse indi -
