  1. Canadian price variants have a stronger market in the USA in my opinion. Here in Canada they are more easily found.
  2. Great story! But I also love the trial of Galactus, in particular the full page of all the different races and how they see Galactus when they look upon him; brilliant idea.
  3. "the danger in Hollywood is that people get excited and only think about release dates, not quality." - Exactly. Thank you Mr. Villeneuve
  4. I hated that scene in the Marvels. After all the singing and dancing they were doing ended they immediately reveal none of it mattered because the Prince can speak normally as he is bilingual.
  5. It is absolutely baffling how stupid they are. The solution is right in front of them: take the best stories as written in the comics and simply put that on the big screen. No need to change anything. I certainly don't need Disney to create something "new and fresh, that the fans have never seen before - Bob Iger" because they have already proven they can't do that.
  6. gorgeous copy! I also focused on a 1-30 run, choosing to assemble a 8.5+ run
  7. I have sold all but 1 of all the books I have sent in.
  8. no, this is supposed to happen after the first film, but before Aliens so sometime during Ripley's 57 year space float.
  9. yeah that is my take as well. Conor was just doofy. 4/10
  10. i remain hopeful but I personally think they have no clue how to make movies about Alien any more. I have not liked anything since Cameron's Aliens as the first 2 films set the bar extremely high, anything that doesn't hit that mark is a waste of time.
  11. Manufacturing error and I personally don't think it makes the error book more valuable. It is making me check the copies I own of the book though!
  12. They can focus on "guaranteed hits" but with poor writing and terrible execution I don't think any film/TV show they make with any of their properties will be guaranteed to be a hit.
  13. That is very cool! The large Steranko collection purchased by @thehumantorch and I had 2 programs to that show! Here is the pic I took when we first had a look at the collection in the seller's basement.
  14. Yes. I just dont want outlandish stuff like the flame thrower guitarist of the previous film. I am aware i am in the minority.
  15. The Empire magazine image is exactly what i am talking about. Over the top visual spectacle.
  16. I agree. I am ok with deviations from the book/source material if it makes sense and enhances the story being told on the screen. Having the elves arrive at Helm's Deep in Lord of the Rings was not in the book, but the Elves were fighting the forces of evil during this time and having the elves arrive created a fantastic moment in the film that also acknowledged the source material. I actually like how Dune 2 has chosen to deal with Alia so far. It adds something to the story that the audience has never seen before yet is a nod to the source material.
  17. as it sits I am 5.5 With a press I see this getting to 6.5-7.0.
  18. I agree with this. finally saw Killers of the Flower Moon as well. Very noticeably long in my opinion but I did enjoy the story. I just think they could have edited it to be 2-2.25 hrs long instead of 3.5 hours long. Saw it with some friends who invited me over for dinner and a movie. We paused it for dinner and I noted 1.25 hours had passed, and saw the time remaining 6/10 mostly due to the length
  19. something that I really wish this franchise would consider in the details is that gasoline/fuel is a very precious resource (established in earlier films) and because of this they should limit the number of vehicles as well as how garish the vehicles appear. While this bike visually looks good, to me it does not belong in the Mad Max universe as it looks like a custom fabricated machine built by some well known current fabricator rather than an existing bike with add-ons like the vehicles of the 1981 Road Warrior film.
