    Compelling evidence that many comic book illustrators have never seen real breasts.

    In reply to Why Bryan Singer's Return To The X-Men Is A Bad Idea
    First Class wasn't supposed to be an origin movie, it was always described as more of a New Mutants movie (regardless of what "First Class" implies).

    There is no point in making an X-Men origins movie without the original 5 X-Men, and Singer himself has made that an impossibility by casting Iceman and Angel as children to Cyclops and Jean Grey's adults, with Hank McCoy being a generation older than them, but that part can be ignored (truly, Kelsey Grammar as Beast is the most inspired casting ever in a comic book movie, and the only great part of X3. You may argue Stewart as Xavier, but while undeniably awesome, it isn't really inspired, but obvious and necessary)

    The First Class name could mean the first class of young mutants specifically trained as warriors(Which is how I interpreted it after learning it didn't mean the actual first first class), and could focus on the younger students from the movie- Iceman, Angel, Colossus, Shadowcat, Jubilee, Siren, whoever else was in there.

    Save the "Origins" titles for the older characters from the movies like Magneto and Storm(after you recast her) and a good Wolverine origins movie, like the Japan story Hugh Jackman was pitching a while back. If he gets that made I'll forgive him for being over 6' tall. (nah, I let that go after how good he was in the first one and how brutally awesome he was in the second one)

    In reply to Overrated SF Of The Decade? You Tell Us
    This decade was bookended with hyper-realistic, overhyped CGI movies that promised to "change movie-making forever": Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within and Avatar. The former is why I can't muster much enthusiasm for the latter.

    A few weeks ago I saw a guy on stilts riding a bike. Like, he was about eight feet above the bike. Seems really impractical.

    All of the above mentioned solutions have been written out in Next Wave and Umbrella Academy.

    For Zombie Robot Gustave Eiffel and his Tower of Doom see the latter. For a laser eyed, rocket powered crabs see the former.
