She is clearly racist, hence her ban from twitter. I would say that being banned from Twitter is not evidence of saying racist things or being racist, only that she had consistently run afoul of critical race theory or intersectionality. She has been found guilty of wrongthink and has been cancelle...

Most of those quotes look to me like she’s being acerbic or speaking in hyperbole to get noticed among the chatter that is social media or more specifically Twitter, and not exclusively statements that would come from a place of dislike of different races just because of their race. That being said...

Do the Brits read much Breitbart? Probably more like Katie Hopkins. I wanted to go see her when she was in (the) Midland(s). Why start with Unknown Soldier? That's like starting discussing a band that had been around for a long time and finally gets a hit record, like how Metallica fans get about t...

Man are you guys a bunch of women-haters. :lol: I mean, if there’s 4 main characters I would assume at least 1 will be a woman and 1 would be a minority (heaven forbid there’s a female minority!). It’s called being representative. Maybe not of their readers, but of the general populace. 50% are wom...

I've been checking for it on Vudu, since they have a tile that plays the trailer. Good to know it'll be available in some form soon. I really wish I'd gone opening night now. Last Wednesday seems like a lifetime ago. But my god, what a disaster for the release. It is, but same goes for several othe...

He also did a successful Kickstarter for a 3 volume omnibus set of his run on Dreadstar not sure if they're going to reprint the Peter David run.

They have commented that they are considering a Pert David

Well now *I'm* considering a Pert David...

The stuff with his kids and the houses could’ve worked

I liked the houses mythology they started, a shame it seemed to be dropped.

I don’t know where you got 45 mil from. That would have been week 1. Obviously it had a lot more to go. I feel very confident that it would have crossed the 100 mil mark, and that’s not counting the world wide. By any standard I would say that’s a hit. $45 million USD was the movie's budget: ($42 m...

The movie was on track to be a hit. ... By what measure was it on track to be a hit? $45 million USD budget, with standard advertising ratio and ticket revenue suggests circa $120 million-plus just to break even. The movie was tracking to open at $10 million across its first weekend, yet opened sec...

Kickstarter is up now. Here’s an article from newsarama: https://www.newsarama.com/49813-jim-starlin-returns-from-drawing-retirement-for-new-dreadstar-title.html Very exciting news as just a few years ago Starlin thought he would never draw again. Some awesome reward tiers for the Kickstarter, too....

A lot of people have mentioned Mile High and Lone Star but has anyone used NewKadia? I've used them a lot over the years, only about 2 hours from where I live, but they do not have a storefront you can visit. They have IMHO better customer service, better grading, better shipping, shipping fees and...

Will be interesting to see if: a. Sony sees Bloodshot as a loss due to box office performance and earnings. b. Sony recognizes the COVID-19 impact on the industry, does NOT see Bloodshot as a loss, and looks to green-light a second film in an effort to recover from this epidemic. ... It still opene...

More than 350 miles to London (UK)....about 7.5 hrs by car and ferry; that's one way.... #BadIdea Or I could fly to Dublin. Might be faster and even cheaper (thanks to Ryan air) but still.... #BadIdea So, I'll probably mail order ENIAC (from Forbidden Planet/UK or the Big Bangie in Dublin) and that...

Despite stopping reading VEI books due to decisions by some of the team behind Bad Idea, I was more than happy to give the new line a try. While I am largely indifferent to variant covers, making variant story material was one of the steps which caused be to quit, so eschewing variants was reassurin...

I have 1-3 in my to read pile, but I want to crack through Accell volume 4 and Superb vol 4 first, and i think Noble vol 4 is due soon, so probably that too.

From what I remember, Ales Kot had a pitch for a Valiant book, but Warren wasn't sure whether he'd be a good fit for Valiant, so he let him write a mini (which one can easily ignore, or pretend is not in continuity) to see if he had a good handle on Valiant's characters. The results would suggest h...

House of M From the recent Phase 4 movie announcement details, I started thinking they might use this as a basis to bring mutants *into* the MCU... there was something about Scarlet Witch gaining her full spectrum of powers soon. I started speculating that she may also end up somehow involved in th...

Accell - I really like this book. I love the art on most issues. I don't know that anything new has actually happened in the last year of the book though. Seems like every issue has the same plot points with no forward momentum. Superb - Been onboard since the beginning. Generally speaking I've enj...

Complete waste of resources and time. An example of a company trying to fit into the zeitgeist for their industry by latching onto anything they can. But if you look closely there has basically been zero success for shared Universes outside of Marvel and some modest success and recognition for the ...
