It sucks. Don't listen to it.

4/10

The correct elements are there, but it's far too obvious.

I give your review 2/10 for being too ambiguous.

This issue felt random & goofy as hell, but you did get some decent discussions in too.

When you talked about Alf, I thought someone would bring up Alf's tourettes clip.

That second Total Recall cover reminded me heavily of 80's War of the Worlds.

Beeslo, Link, and Mongo already saw this... but for everyone else, here's that Grant Morrison video I was talking about on the show:

Haha. He totally threw you of your game. Favorite interview so far.

Huh?

AWESOME.

And I was also confused about the ALF Tourette's thing... is it some sort of outtake thing or fan-dubbed thing?

Here is the Alf clip I was talking about;

Honestly at this point I think I'm looking far more forward to Green Lantern.

I can't look at commercials and previews for First Class without thinking about what a colossal mess the X-Men film series is at this point and it just drags me down in a big bad way.

Meanwhile when I see Green Lantern I think it looks pretty awesome and not even gonna lie, I get pretty pumped when I hear the oath during the commercials. And I'm not even a big Green Lantern fan, which for all I know helps in my excitement, but, either way, looks like good times to me.

Ditto, save for "not even a big Green Lantern fan". I've never really cared for any of the X-men movies because they don't make any sense. They always remind me of the Resident Evil movies: its like whoever is making it never bothered with hands on time with the source material and just picked and chose ideas they heard about. Each movie seems to be a collection of over the top set pieces with "meh" plotlines. In the end its a colossal mess.

GL on the other hand looks like its following Green Lantern Origins (albeit loosely) and a good popcorn movie. I don't expect "The Dark Knight" quality of a film; but for the record I don't expect that from any comic book movie; Captain America included. Doesn't mean it won't be entertaining. The first trailer was ok, but each subsequent trailer has made it look better and better; and while I'm not a fan of tons of CG, here it makes sense to me. Its a suit made out of light (as are all of the constructs) and CG seems the most reasonable way to do it. If it was Batman or Superman then yeah that would look out of place.

Early Buzz about X-Men: First Class is that its pretty awesome.

I long ago put aside my indifference of it due to it really screwing with the continuity of franchise and now just view it as a stand alone movie, and possibly a stand alone franchise within itself.

Top notch actors. An interesting 60's style. And a somewhat intricate plot from the looks of it. I'm pretty pumped to see it. Green Lantern, I'm still on the fence, but it does look more promising that it first did...

Thoroughly enjoyed the team up. Oh, and Beeslo? Whine, nag, whine, nag...I'm on the forum now, which means any question I ask is now legal. Take that!
