I remember reading something about his grandkids being fans of the comics and them convincing him to do it. I figure there was also a truckload of coke involved.

I had the first DVD of the Spawn series, but I remember not being too impressed.

They probably blew their cgi budget on the few scenes with the cape.

I liked the cartoon enough but felt that it sometimes tried too hard to be edgy, just like the comics.

That's really weird. So Boseman barely had any screen time if you factor that in.

Apparently it was kind of like how they did it for the Robocop reboot where he (and stunt men) wore a version of the suit, they just replaced it in post.

Wasn't there a directors cut of Spawn that had basically no differences from the normal version?

I assume there was some difference, the theatrical version was PG-13 and the director's cut was R, but what exactly that means I don't know.

ButtWolf posted:

Nope! I don't know anyone anywhere. I posted my trailer on my twitter though, and tagged the tweet with Todd McFarlane, John Leguizamo, Michael Jai White, and a couple other accounts like Moviepilot, since I write for them occasionally, and also sites like Comicbook.com and SuperHeroHype. I think it was Comicbook.com that was the first site to do a writeup featuring my trailer; then it all just started to snowball I guess. This same kind of viral exposure happened with my Last Starfighter modern trailer too.

I worked hard to get the cut done before the Todd McFarlane episode on AMC's Geeking Out talk show this past Sunday. My learning of him being featured on the show is actually what prompted me to set aside some time this past Friday/Saturday to cut a modern trailer together. The relevance of McFarlane on the show probably helped give sites incentive to feature my trailer since he talked about the Spawn reboot (again).

[edit] I also sent a tweet to RedLetterMedia with my Spawn trailer asking them to do a re:View of Spawn, haha. Hope they do it/see my trailer :haw:

I felt this way about Amazing Spider-Man which sucked, because the addition of webshooters had all of my friends telling me how this would be better because it was more accurate to the comics.

Whedon I'm not surprised by, but Burton? Will Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter be playing Robin and Starfire? :v:

I enjoy most of the Whedon stuff I've seen but I don't think I'll ever understand the level of veneration he seems to get compared to guys like, say, J. J. Abrams or Steven Moffat. The one I'll always remember was when I was in university and we had a class about feminism, and our pre-class task was to choose an image which we felt represented feminism, write a paragraph explaining why and post it on the module worksite, and one of my esteemed classmates put up a photograph of Joss Whedon.

I'm not saying he can't be what you picture when someone asks you to think about what feminism is, but it's still a bit :rolleyes:

Firefly could've been great had it continued and grew organically. And if that happened the first season would've most likely have been "The worst one."

I like Serenity better though.

I fell in love hard with the pilot but every subsequent episode left me in disappointed tears. Really, the hype I could resist, but that pilot was so loving good and couldn't possibly prepare me for the rest of the season being two dimensional bullshit.

I'm rewatching Civil War and the part where they over explain Spider-Man's goggles bugs me. Was that the result of them working backwards from "we want his eyes to be animated" to "his eyepieces need to be some kind of tech for them to move" to "gadget eyepieces are needed because he needs them to help him focus"?

"Do you want to talk to a spider, Peter?"


What do they say about the goggles? I just remember Tony asking him how he sees out of them or whatever. I think it's mostly to just cover for the fact that Spider-Man's mask, as usually depicted, would be terrible to see out. Making them mechanical kills that bird, with the added bonus of letting his eyes change shape.

Or you're right, and it's the other way around. Works for me either way. Going to watch the movie again, so I can see it in action again.
