Terry Moore Talks About New Echo Movie
He sounds like somebody who gets it. It was recently announced Terry Moore’s latest title Echo will be made into a movie. By all accounts this is a huge shift in popularity for Moore. If he wasn’t already known to the masses, that is about to change. Moore himself understands what is at stake. When [...]
Susan B. Anthony’s Other Vision
I’m not sure if Susan B. Anthony was a comic book fan, but I do know she helped pave the way for a movement of new geeks in this world. So now you ask the legitimate question, “Yo, how does a 19th century women’s right activist have anything to do with comic books?” My answer [...]
Timing Is Everything
We live in a land of clichés. We hear things all the time that we usually dismiss. I am as guilty of this as any other person. Recently I’ve decided to take heed of a cliché and expand an idea I had several years ago. What cliché? “Timing is everything.” It’s amazing to me what [...]
Surviving The Cutting Room Floor
I remember the first day I became a comic book nerd. I was in elementary school and came down with a wicked case of strep throat. My mother took me to the doctor then to the pharmacy. The pharmacist told me to grab one of the comic books in the rack and it would help [...]
Is Iron Man Vs. Goofy Next?
A soft rain pours into Spiderman’s eyes. He slowly creeps down the skyscraper and tilts his head as if peering into a window. He shoots a gentle web onto the window sill and slides it open. Once inside, his Spidey sense tingles like never before. Somebody is inside. He prepares himself for the worst. He [...]
A Usual Suspect Is Needed
While sitting in a dark theatre, my feet pressed firmly on the sticky floor while handling a large helping of overpriced popcorn; my mind started wandering to the next Wolverine film. Why? I don’t know. Perhaps I like torturing myself with idle plot points that have nothing to do with real life. Anyway, I started [...]
Man Of Steel Free To Fly Again
An interesting thing happened this past week. Superman was saved. No, there wasn’t another Superman movie made, rather a court decision was ruled that places the copyrights and all decisions surrounding the Man of Steel into the hands of its original creator. Well, his children at least. The court ruled that the family of Jerome [...]
And That’s 100 Minutes Of My Life I Can’t Get Back
I sometimes wonder if studio executives simply don’t understand how to make a movie. I think it’s a pretty easy process. You write a script, toil over the script until it’s a solid story, hire people to make and be in the picture, shoot it, and edit. I can think of about 512 steps that [...]
GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra – What did you think?
GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra hit US theaters Friday. Master Digital Color’s official review will be online Monday. In the meantime tell us your thoughts on Destro, the Baroness and the Joes. Did you love or loathe it. Were the characters done right, all but one perhaps? Potential spoilers in the comments… now you [...]
The Signs of Suck Are Taking Shape
I don’t know when I’m going to die. I can guess. I can look at the average age of death among men who sit around a lot, enjoy comic books, and debate constantly to get a good idea, but I don’t really know when it will actually happen. I’m assuming when the end is near [...]
