GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Kevin Smith's Superman script.

Huh. I can definitely see where the "Fanboy's wet dream, confused Joe Public" assessment came from. Some cool moments, but overall it felt kind of klunky.

Apparently this script is post-tampering by the director, considering the existance of polar bears and a giant robot spider.

Also, in Superman:TAS Luthor's valet/bodyguard is name Mercy. In the script it's Misty. Is there a Mercy/Misty character in the comics?

Always Anti-fascist!

Kevin Smith had me on the floor talking about the robot spider in "An Evening With Kevin Smith" especially when it showed up in Wild wild West.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

JZ, I'd like you to know that the last picture alone moved S&A to the top of my queue. And ruined my concentration for 10 minutes.

mmmmmmGUH.

I've noticed the first sign that I'm getting older.... the average age of men I'm attracted to (be they famous or no) is going up.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Yeah, Mercy crossed over into the comics.

Yeah, Mercy crossed over into the comics.

The DCAU, your number one source for female sidekicks to established villians!

I'm curious, then, why KS changed the name to Misty.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Yeah, Mercy crossed over into the comics.

She was also in a Smallville episode, I think.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I figured I was in trouble when I saw Bill Nighy in Love, Actually.

How sad that the tagline in French reverts to the plain-old "relax, sit back, and enjoy the flight" instead of the play on words.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

So we've got new movie channels in our digital cable thicket.

Retroplex! Iplex!

Retroplex picked up the stupidest movie but I had to get it for the title alone: Old Dracula.

(And yet it took me half the movie to realize this was a play on Young Frankenstein.)

David Niven. Dracula comedy. Except not funny. Except sort of Hammer Horror-ish. 1974. Groovy 70s London. Blacksploitation with Vampira played by Teresa Graves (Get Christy Love, I think). Great production values. Retarded script. (So, the opposite of BBC genre productions of the seventies.)

I didn't even know this movie existed.
