1 week 4 days ago Newbie

I don't know anything about Ender's Game except for that trailer. At first look when I saw the kids I thought "Ok, they raise them a birth to be soldiers and I'm seeing the early stages to set everthing up." I was hoping as the trailer went along they would be adults by the time war came. They were still kids so I'm kinda "I dunno." Kids are , you know, kind of annoying in movies. Is there something someone can point out that starts off with "I hear what you're saying but don't worry......"

In the meantime I'll be here trying to prepare myself emotionally for the Red Wedding in a few weeks.

5 weeks 6 days ago Characters

When the Reed kids and the guys who follow no banner(or whatever) showed up last night I though "Great, now there's MORE characters I have to follow." Love the show but there is a LOT of characters and storylines. Glad I watched from Day 1 or else I'd be lost.

7 weeks 1 day ago question

Question for you Tiger fans. Do you think they're showcasing Porcello so that they can trade him for a closer? I drafted Drew Smyly because I think he has the stuff to be a good starter but I need him to find a way to get in there. Long reliever isn't going to cut it.

10 weeks 4 days ago Nope

I didn't think it was a diss at them at all. I totally get the Lucas route of "give them the best part first" and then to the backstory later. I just admire how Marvel did it with the chronological build up lately and wanted to see Fox(ugh) do it like that. As far as when what was bigger I'll just tell you what I was around for. I read from about '81- '86. Also during that time I went and read all the stuff I missed from the '75 Giant X-Men(classic team introduced) forward to the point in '81 that I got on board. So I don't know the whole Apocalypse and Jubilee stuff that went on when I checked out in '86. Discovering UM football being on of the reasons I drifted. But I'll tell ya that period that I read, X-Men was the most popular. Wolverine was far and away the most popular single character in comics. I couldn't tell you who was next. Maybe Avengers. They had some decent villians: Brotherhood, Hellfire Club, Government/Sentinals, the Brood,the Warlocks. From what I hear the reboot FF movie is a go. Marvels phase 2 is set with Iron Man 3, Thor 2, Cap 2, Guardians, and Avengers 2. Phase 3 will kick off with Ant Man(I dunno how that will do) and Dr. Strange will be in phase 3. I'm hoping Black Panther will be in that too. There's supposedly a reference to his country in Iron Man 3.

10 weeks 4 days ago I concur about X-Men being perfection for a time

I think the Chris Clairmont written era of X-Men wa the most popular any era of any comic has ever been. From the mid 70's to the mid 80's. They dwarfed the Avengers. That's why it disappointed me so much that they messed up the movies. They should have been bigger than the Avengers movie. They were popular to a degree but the Avengers was a phenomenom(and rightfully so). Here's what i would have done. Make the First class 60's era movie first. Then do the modern day era trilogy. With the first of those they could use artistic license to bring the new team together because the whole mutantt island thing in the comics has too many people. I would have Magneto and the Brotherhood about to do something big and Xavier only has Cyclops and Phoenix. So they recruit the classic era linup(Wolverine, Storm, Nightcrawler, Colossus, Ariel, and Rogue). They come together as a team and beat The Brotherhood. At the end you see Phoenix start to get a little unstable. In the second movie you use the storyline where they fight the Hellfire Club lead by Sebastan Shaw. They win but as in the comic the Club unwittingly unleashes Dark Phoenix. Then in the 3rd one it is the storyline of the fight for Phoenix. Phoenix is destroying civilizationns across the universe. All the races unite and send their best warriors to unite and kill her. The X-Men are protective and stand up  to them. It's decided that the 2 teams will be dropped on a moon to fight. The winner decides her fate. The X-Men actually lose and Phoenix kills herself because she knows she can't  control the power anymore. A dark ending which I loved. Then if there's a demand for a fourth I guess you can go on. Maybe the Days of Future Past story which they're making now. But I do the Dark Phoenix saga to start off. But Fox messed it up IMO.

10 weeks 4 days ago Nope

Never read Iron Man.I never read the Avengers comics either. To me they were too goody two shoes. Kinda corporate super heroes with their switchboard operators and adulation. The only thing I read that they were in was the Secret Wars series. The only comic that i read then was X-Men. I liked the whole dark ousider thing they had. Oddly though I'm not a fan of the X-Men movies except for First Class. Characters were either underutilized or didn't act like the comics. Fox really messed the franchise up. They should have used stories from the comic's classic era. Then while I didn't read Avengers comics I love the Marvel Studio movies for Avengers, Iron Man ,etc. They took great care tying the solo movies together and building up to Avengers. It was refreshing in an era of churning crap out to get a quick buck.

10 weeks 5 days ago No Ant Man, hasn't been cast yet

I've recently heard different on the post credit scene. Read on for a maybe, possible spoiler.....................Tony receives an SOS signal from space by someone named Star Lord. He dons a new space armor and takes off. That's it. The SOS will be explained in the Guardians of the Galaxy movie. Tony will meet the Guardians in their movie's post credit scene. There they will explain that the SOS was a warning that Thanos is headed towards Earth. That sets up Avengers 2.

Not to worry. Taken care of. I went to OSU and put a "Closed" sign on the front gate. Real professional looking. Problem averted. 

13 weeks 2 days ago Had a hunch

I thought something was up a few days ago. She was on a NY sports talk show and they asked who her teams were in sports. For baseball she said the Yankees and Cubs. I thought that was odd considering her boyfriend was on Detoit. So I figured maybe trouble in paradise.

18 weeks 3 days ago WTKA

Brian, I just got done listening to to you talking to Sam and Ira about this on WTKA. Nex time you go one remind them to turn your mic up. I'm at work and I have to turn my speaker up to hear you talk but then when Sam talks it's like 'Whoaa!' Then I have to crank it down. Then up, then down, over and over again.

BTW I agree that Sam's a little too optimistic on Kugler for '13. I think he may very well take over at center while Miller is still around but I don't think it will be next year.
