The Minearverse 5: Closer to the Earth, Further from the Ax
[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.
I miss Birds of Prey ALOT! To bad they had to rewrite and crew it up. The Comic is really good and the show could have been awesome.
Now I have to go elsewhere to see Shemar with a gunn. *sigh*
As to the Titans, if the kept with the small tight group there would be no more cost or effect then the do now for Smallville.
Use Dick Grayson.... Nightwing has no powers just lots of stunts.
Donna troy, in whatever version they want, is more raw strngth and is human like Clark.
They could use the same model to do cyboeg the did on SV.
Really the biggest money would go to Gar. And if they wanted to do it Starfire's hair.
But maybe for pazzaz add Bart(kid-flash) and you have his super speed.
I honesty don't think there would be much cost that is not in an average ep of SV, today. I would love to see it.
I made Katie Finneran's day!
Last night I was headed to a going away party for one of the attorneys. I was walking with a couple of my colleagues and enjoying the sights, including New York's seemingly endless stream of beautiful women. Which is, of course, how I spotted Katie. As she got closer I realized that I recognized her, and right after she passed me I figured out who she was. "Katie Finneran!" She turned around and walked back toward me. "Oh, hi..." I could tell she was trying to remember who I was, so I told her, "No, you don't know me. I'm just a big fan of Wonderfalls and The Inside." She was surprised I recognized her. Her hair was strawberry blonde and pulled back; she seemed much thinner than on either show. Don't know if she lost weight or if she just dressed and carried herself differently from Sharon or Mel. Anyway, she looks GREAT in person, much better than on either show -- and I thought she was smoking hot on tv.
She asked my name and demanded a last name when I just said Joe. I told her that I had also hooked my wife on Wonderfalls. "You should come to Pig Farm." What's that? "It's a play I'm doing at the Roundabout. Bring your wife and come backstage!" With a charming smile and "You really made my day!" we parted. She made my day, too. And that was even before I started drinking on someone else's tab.
Aquaman is, reportedly, dead in the water.
Excellent phrasing, Kristen!
I made Katie Finneran's day!
Which probably made a bunch of buffistas' day
as well as green with envy! Great story.
Excellent phrasing, Kristen!
Maybe I should consider a career with Variety.
What a great Katie Finneran story! I thought I had reached my maximum love on her, but I was wrong.
I have no idea how much of "classic" TT the comic mined
Off the top of my head, the major story arcs that pulled from the classic comics, though with some changes, were the Terra arc, the Doom Patrol/Brotherhood of Evil arc and the Raven/Trigon arc. The last season also featured a lot of cameos from assorted Titan members over the years including Jericho and Kid Flash.
His skin was okay, but I'm still skeptical (or forgetful) about Gar's hair.
Honestly, all you'd have to do is find an actor that doesn't mind dying their hair green. My brother's done a wide range of colors over the years and they've all looked as natural as having green, blue or crimson hair can look.
They could use the same model to do cyboeg the did on SV.
I didn't like the way they did Cyborg on Smallville. A big part of Cyborg's angst comes from the fact he's very obviously not human.
Also, maybe it is just me - but if the acting is good, the writing is good, and the director maintains a good pace, I'm cool with the special effects consisting of hand puppets.
Great story, Joe! Are you going to go to the play and go backstage?
A big part of Cyborg's angst comes from the fact he's very obviously not human.
As does Gar's. Donna and Dick and Wally can pass. Gar and Vic are visibly different outcasts. Gar was Doom Patrol, man. Freak city.
I got more of Gar's angst coming from abandonment, thenhis skin or condition. He seems to enjoy it and eveything that comes with it.
Alot of his problems came from Tara/Terra and his step-dad.
Victor, yes he seemed to not be able to handle the crome suit and when anyone shunned him because of it. He is the Titan's version of the Thing.
Hey, anyone read the current Crisis story and see who they killed off? I was so sad!
