little crawlers

Maybe Wolverine misses Kurt so much that he's started hallucinating little Nightcrawlers everywhere.

LMAO that would actually make my day. I wouldn't mind it, as long as she didn't become all self hating. I am OVER depressy suicidal self hating Tara. Give me ANYTHING else. ANYTHING. It might be an interesting way to explore the personality difference between a human and vampire. Except for brief f...

Dexter Discussion

I've listened to the audio versions of the books and I don't remember anything like that. Basically, the first book is *almost* identical to the first season. But the rest of the books go in a completely different direction than the show. IMHO, Dexter is one of those odd ducks where the adaption is ...

What If Marvel Did a New 52?

After 80+ years of trying to come up new twists and turns for the "same" characters, to me it's all What-If at this point. I think the comic industry should just accept it. Looking at the model of Television, more shows are going from episodic (every story stands alone) to more serial (mor...

What If Marvel Did a New 52?

I personally think the whole comic industry might need to rethink its whole approach to continuity. Instead of waiting for things to get so convoluted and ridiculously complex (and often contradictory) then rebooting to clean up the mess, why not avoid the mess entirely by letting stories stand alon...

Classic X-Men

It seems like in the beginning whenever Jean used her power people around attributed it to ghosts. "Hey, things around me are moving! This place must be haunted!" Also, Stan Lee seemed to end every non-question sentence with at least one exclamation point. Maybe everyone just shouted every...

I also was wondering how they hell they were going to get another episode out of this when it seemed like everything was cleared up. Then the ending came and I was kicking myself for not seeing that coming when it was set up so perfectly with Lafayette's story arc this season.

Just the Doctor

At the time, the hinted-at romance between the Doctor and Rose really upset a lot of long time fans because the Doctor had been mostly asexual. To this ancient, powerful being it would be like romancing an infant or a reasonably attractive chimp. Having the human Doctor (aka "Handy" aka &q...

This season witches and by proxy, ghosts. :) Tarra can be really annoying. She's always acted kind of crazy (which is why it was easy for her to think she was possessed a few seasons back). But for the last few episodes, every time I've seen her I've felt sorry for her. Pretty much everyone close to...

I recommend starting from the beginning if possible as well. The show starts off with a simple premise of "What if vampires were real and they made themselves known?" then introduces additional magical creatures into the series over time. But jumping in now, it's a bit much. One thing to k...

I have to agree that Beat's first furry reveal looked... off. Maybe the make-up just doesn't look good head on and close-up, or maybe that was the first day they applied it and hadn't yet gotten it to work quite right. But once he was in the x-jet, and then fighting he looked fine. I actually think ...

I really liked it. It gave some good backstorying for Characters from previous movies while also including some new guys as well as characters that relate to characters from previous movies. (Azazel's teleporting resembling Nightcrawler's, and Havoc's powers looking alot like Cyclops's) Seeing Azaze...

I'm listening to the audio books for the Dexter series (the same one that inspired the Showtime series) and in the 3rd book there's a character named "Kurt Wagner." See here. Strictly speaking, not Nightcrawler related but I almost did a spit take when I heard it. Fortunately I wasn't actu...

It was great, and I loved it but I don't know that it lived up to my unreasonably high expectations.

I've decided that despite not having read the issue, nor any comic books in the last five years, i reserve the right to feel pissed off about the killing off of Nightcrawler. Not only because it's yet another example of the tired trick of killing a character to seem "edgy" (which it surely...
