]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Top Ten Most Realistic Planets in Science Fiction]]> Are we into recycling at io9? I seem to remember this same "unrealistic planets" post being made a couple of times already.

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on A CGI Gojira Worthy of His Name]]> @Chaoticevl: I think if they would have tried to forget "Godzilla" and just made a giant lizard creature attacks New York, it would have been a more accepted movie. When I saw how they were changing it, I just decided to blank "Godzilla" from my mind and just go and watch it for the monster movie it was. With that, it was a perfectly fine movie and I too enjoyed it. However, as a direct "Godzilla" remake/update/sequel, it was not so good.

The above Godzilla effect itself was pretty good, but I have just about had it with movies or television shows that have pretty much everything except the main actor generated in the computer. Just go ahead and make the final step and instead of green screening a couple of actors for 99% of the scenes, record the voices and make the entire movie CGI animation.

"Come here raider... nice boy!"

@Whitworthian: How does a mention to "Scar" prove the raiders reincarnate? I thought that Scar was recognizable because of the survived battle damage. He was too smart to be destroyed easily and had survived long enough to have the scar on the front from previous encounters. I don't remember him showing up in battle after he was destroyed at the end of the episode.

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Watch Out for Sarcastic Cylons]]> "Who knew Baltar could be funny?"

Where have you been? Baltar has been comic relief on BSG since the mini-series. It the few times that he is not "funny" that seems so out-of-character.

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Watch The Dark Knight's Harvey Dent Flip His Coin]]> I like the fact that they are going to let the symbiote suit actually look like the comic version before it goes to Venom. I was worried at first when I saw they were doing a Spider-man 3 variation of the normal suit dyed black, but this works pretty well. Although I wish they had put a few more episodes of the symbiote suited Spider-man in before having him get rid of it.

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Pick Any Hero You Want, Except Hana Gitelman]]> So we are to read the web comic, decide which character we like and would like to see on the show, and then get really pissed off when they cast someone not in the least similar to the web comic character?

Yeah, this is a winner...

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Two Problems and One Solution for Friday's Battlestar Episode]]> I'm sorry, but the Zarek Solution does not pan out. If you want to talk about people being in character, then having Adama run away because Zarek is president would never happen. That would be way more out of character than Adama feeling his own internal conflict over Roslin puts the fleet in danger and it might be safer to let the fleet go on with trusted people in the higher leadership roles.

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on 10 Awesome Uses For A Stasis Field]]> Actually Violet from the Incredibles was a force-field "invisible girl" style. Now Syndrome used a null-ray that could be called a sort-of stasis field, but it just froze the victim, not suspended them in time.

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on A Monster Fish, a Cute Robot, and a Whole Bunch of Eyeballs]]> It is a space fish luring in an "alien" astronaut AND it is a monster bursting out of the top of the train not on it.

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Beware Strip-Club Gorillas And "Butt Monsters" In Middleman]]> @russdanger: Ooohh, yeah Frankenstein with dragon breath, and the ability to merge with other Universal monsters to create a giganto-monster, that flies out into space and fights alien invaders...

...yeah!

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Resurrecting the Extinct Tasmanian Tiger from Preserved DNA]]> I would love to see something like this actually work. Start with the thylacine and work your way up to the frozen mammoths, etc. That would be one zoo, I would have to visit. I say zoo, because I doubt any of the cloned animals would be able to survive in the wild. Not because of the "cloned" factor, but because that since they have vanished, other predator/prey combinations have stepped in and there would really no longer be a place for them.

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Gorgeous City Of Ember Pics, Plus An Awesomely Ugly Tekken Photo]]> The cone of silence spoiler was actually shown in the Get Smart trailer at the start of Indy.

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Mutated Centipede Baby Demands Your Mittens]]> Very strange, but not much worse than the "under the bed" crew from the Toy Story movie.

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on First Picture Of Viggo Mortensen In The Road]]> why would people on another planet want to buy Chinese fleas? Are they considered a delicacy to some lizard creatures? Or a mode of transportation for really tiny humanoids?

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on BSG TV Movies Won't Change The Show's Ending]]> @Log1c: Don't you mean "Frak with the show"? This is a BSG thread after all...

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Wanna Know Who's In That Coffin On Lost?]]> @DeepFriar: Wasn't that Destro? from Cobra?

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Final Dollhouse Trailer Kicks 100 Percent More Ass]]> @gemma1: Yeah, but the TV series "Buffy" had a built in following from the original movie. People were willing to give it a chance based off of the memories from the movie.

...which is what I did...

...for about 1 1/2 seasons. Then I just couldn't take it anymore. I was honestly surprised it lasted as long as it did.

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Worst Batman Will Star In Eco-Monster Movie]]> Kilmer was an excellent Batman. You'd think he could have never topped the classic "Top Secret"... but he did.

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Worst Batman Will Star In Eco-Monster Movie]]> The story line seems awful familiar...

...wasn't this just on the Sci-Fi channel a few Saturday nights back?

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on See The Softer Side Of Hulk]]> Hulk had to watch trailer at least three times to actually catch part mentioned in headline. Hulk hate watching trailer three times. Hulk smash!

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Marvel Tries Ultimate Rebranding]]> At first I thought the Ultimate line was a good idea: start fresh, leave the old convoluted crap behind. However, as they began adding more titles to the Ultimate line, the same old convoluted crap began to reappear.

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on You'll Never Guess Who Kid Magneto Hangs Out With]]> You gotta love the Spectacular Spider-Man series. I don't care how much is spent making a big-budget movie, the best continuation of a comic book series just has to be in animation.

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on The Trouble With Hancock]]> I think its a conspiracy by the movie industry: Planned "last minute" reshoots and rating haggling just so they can release multiple DVDs and recoup money that way if the actual theatrical release bombs.

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Solar Lily Pads Leave Robot Paw Prints on Glasgow River]]> Looks like what happens when you drip a little cooking oil in a pan of water in preparation for cooking noodles....

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Pick The Worst Scifi Movie Sequel Of All Time]]> @DangerousDac: Well the basic question should really be why would anyone expect an EVIL Peter Parker at all? The symbiote did not turn Parker evil in the comics. The worst it did was take over his sleeping body and go out for some late night web slinging. He found out it was attaching itself to him "permanently" and had to remove it.
That forced removal is what drove the symbiote insane and created Venom.

Spiderman 3 really should have been split into Spiderman 3 and 4 and the black-suit-to-Venom thought through and filled out a little more.

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Twin Moonraker Space Stations in Orbit, Obvious Plot to Destroy Earth!]]> Genesis 1 and Genesis 2 make a "deuce", right? For Bigelow Industries, right?

...so what we have here is...

Deuce Bigelow

...right?

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Bring Back the Old Starbuck Please]]> Personally, I have always thought that Starbuck was one of the weakest "reimagined" character overall. The character has always been portrayed as being not the most stable character on the show.

Baltar, on the other hand, has reached a "tune in to see just what the hell he is going to do next" level that keeps me coming back.

Overall, I am really going to miss the show after this final season, but at the same time I kind of want off the roller coaster before I barf.

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Finally, A Video Game Movie For Smart People]]> "Video game movie for smart people"...

...I'm sorry, but I just can't comprehend the above statement.

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Maximum Spoilers For Indiana Jones And Hancock]]> I know it's just a BLOG, but can we at least have some spell checkers turned on when writing these articles, or at the least, please read over what you've written before posting?

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on My God, It's Full Of Future Technology]]> I hope the final comment in the article above was a joke.

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on X-Men Get A Warning From A Ruined Future]]> @Garrison Dean, King Awesome: I have seen "demo pics" of the Indy set, but none locally. Heck, all of the stores that carry toys within 50 miles of me still have not updated their inventory since christmas. I'm currently looking for the Rogue/Gambit set as these are the favorite comic couple of my wife's.

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Bionic Beauty Beats Six Million Dollar Rocket]]> @ManchuCandidate: ...for your sister...

...riiiight....

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on X-Men Get A Warning From A Ruined Future]]> I love the look of the Superhero squad figures. Those and the Galactic Heroes "star wars" figures are great. I had no idea they were making a 'toon from the Marvel set. I have a niece that will love it.

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Trek Music Reinterpreted By New Power Generation]]> @92BuickLeSabre: No kidding. My first thought at reading the headline was "Little Red Shuttle Craft"?

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Unidentified Flying Human Freaks The Hell Out Of Mexico]]> Hey, I'm going to go release a mylar balloon and film it. Maybe i can get on TV with a "paranormal" happening.

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Surprising Twists On BSG, Smallville And Doctor Who]]> @CMG (violating company policy since 1999): Maybe they were counting in binary?

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Saturn Thunderstorm Would Fry Earth in a Hurry]]> Hasn't it been determined that the "red spot" on Jupiter is really the calm eye of a planet-covering mega storm? Like the eye of a hurricane here on earth?

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Galaxy Quest Returns, Goes Global]]> I don't know about the "Galaxy Quest" original crew, but I wouldn't mind seeing a sequel about how the termites... theraflu... the aliens who actually built the ship are doing.

]]> <![CDATA[steven522 commented on Regrowing Fingers Using Pig Bladders]]> So when I turn 60, can I rub the stuff all over my body and turn young again?

Or do i have to cut off nearly every body part and regrow from scratch?

And with that thought, if I cut off an arm and rub he stuff on the appendage, will I grow another me eventually?
