litheraAs I am dissatisfied with the response I got to the link, I am posting the picture and you can all deal.
There.
Saw the Two Towers special last night. I saw the stunt that will make... Just.. Wow. The angle on it is pretty bad, part of it is off screen, but, damn. I just. Wow.
New Line Cinema is teaming with DC Comics to create a feature based on the classic comic book Shazam! Ronin is also in talks.
Ummmmm... I think that's about it for now. In unrelated news, nexy year we're going to start adding color to our bills starting with the $20 and going up. The treasury hasn't announced /what/ colors yet, though.

Hrm, a WW game set in Oz...

Date: 2002-12-05 09:29 am (UTC)I mean I prefer the CFL's rules to the NFL, but I'll still snicker and say "55 Yard Line" or ask them why an 8 team league had two teams called the Roughriders. (One was the Rough Riders, the other was the Roughriders. Drove casinos crazy.) Nothing is immune. NOTHING!
...well except for curling. I like curling. I wish I could find a site that sells team jackets.

Shazam will be a flop. Not popular enough as is to support a movie.
How many people have EVER read Batman? Enough to support a movie.
How many people have EVER read X-Men? Enough to support a movie.
How many people have EVER read Shazam!? Not that many. At least, not enough for them to want to shell out $7+ for a movie.

Date: 2002-12-05 09:45 am (UTC)If this happens, I want ALL of the Marvels. I want Captain Marvel Jr. and Mary Marvel and Uncle "No I'm not useless really" Marvel (and every time he appears, SOMEONE has to say, "He's such a loveable old fraud") and the really lame Lieutenant Marvels.... you know Hillbilly Marvel and Fat Marvel and Tall Marvel... and...
...hmmm perhaps it's good that I don't own a movie studio.

Date: 2002-12-05 09:51 am (UTC)Then again I wish that we could get TSN in the US or that they'd lose all of their curling contracts and the rights would go to the CBC. I only get to watch it like 4 or 5 times a year.

Date: 2002-12-05 09:56 am (UTC)But come on, it only ran for 13 episodes whereas the Shazam/Isis hour ( http://www.yesterdayland.com/popopedia/shows/saturday/sa1202.php ) lasted for 2 years!

Date: 2002-12-05 09:59 am (UTC)I did get to use curling strategies at a wedding last fall though. They had a shuffleboard court at the resort and I was all about putting up guards and stuff.

Date: 2002-12-05 10:39 am (UTC)Though with Marvel rushing to get Prime (Ultraverse still rules! Damn Marvel for buying them out and killing them off!) made into a feature film it will be tough to get Shazam off the ground without it looking like a rip-off, considering that both characters are essentially kids who become full grown heroes...

Date: 2002-12-05 01:37 pm (UTC)Between game falling through and the random higgledy-piggledy way Gavin's move is coming together, my weekend plans are very much up in the air. If you want to come over for some Kingdom HEarts time, I'm sure we could work that out.

Date: 2002-12-05 02:44 pm (UTC)It looks like we missed our chance to see "The Core" in theaters. According to Yahoo, Bowling for Columbine is doing better than Jackass: The Movie, which makes me happy.
