Wheat Loaf posted:There was a Dexter's Lab cartoon about that. He has 30 seconds until the school bus arrives so he uses one of his inventions (a helmet that slows down time) to give himself 30 minutes, except it just makes everything else go slower. Tries pouring milk into his cereal and has to take bites out of it when it gets stuck halfway between the carton and his bowl. That episode was the poo poo.

And he has to tread slowly because walking normally causes his shoes to catch fire from friction.

HairyManling posted:I met Rob once after a White Zombie show and he was cool as gently caress. He signed my red leather Docs (it was 1994, of course I had red leather Docs) and seemed like a dude that was passionate about his work. His movies are ok - I enjoyed House of a Thousand Corpses. That's my Rob Zombie story. That same night I met Dimebag and he drew all over my face with a sharpie mimicking his facial hair. He also signed the Doc Marten's, but that's a story for another time. Yeah. The person I know who met him maybe caught him in a foul mood. The man sure has a passion for horror but just doesn't do it for me with his movies.

I'm pretty sure the Flash can fart speed force on stuff or something, even in the show speedsters take people on joyrides. In the comics, one iteration of the Flash outran being dead for years.

How did they explain that he ran faster than being dead? It sounds cool.

I think Barry Allen ran so fast at the end of one of the Crisis storylines that he ended up in a Marvel comic.

HairyManling posted:Oh, for sure. Wasn't trying to imply he was a great director or anything. The thing that irritates me the most about his films is that he keeps casting his wife and she is just a terrible actor as far as I'm concerned. I guess you could say the same about Kevin Smith + Jennifer Schwalbach Smith as well as Tim Burton and Helena Bonham Carter. e: although I liked HBC in Fight Club and some other things, I even liked her in Sweeney Todd

HBC is a fantastic actor - see her role in the King's Speech - but Burton is a hack of a director.

Did Smith ever put his wife front and center or was she just smaller/background roles or cameos? The jewel thief role was her biggest IIRC and that was a background player compared to the others.

Someone said something about the Flash taking a poo poo at light speed before going off to fight the bad guy and for the past ten minutes Ive been laughing, the image of the time frozen turds hovering silently above the water and then when the Flash turns off the speedforce the turds hit the bottom of the bowl at like .99 lightspeed, instantly vaporising the neighborhood

Also, whilst I am sure it is a loving awful movie, I thought it was a nice gesture of his to make that stupid Canadian movie, (hahaha they speak in a different accent to us. This is surely the wellspring of all comedy), as a vehicle for his and Johnny Depps daughters. There is just not enough nepotism in todays Hollywood. Ask Jaden Smith.

Is that really happening? I know Batman found Rorschach's pin, but I thought it was just some horrible joke. I even heard them saying Rorschach was going to guest in Injustice 2, but again, didn't happen. Just figured it was a big joke. Film isn't even out yet, but I guess we can guess "Ready Player One" is going to be monumentally insufferable and irritating.

Basically he's responsible for the creation of the New 52 and the death of a handful of characters.

Whatever lead to the mentality that you can enhance a work of fiction by using the magic of continuity to link it to another existing work? It's probably from the same mindset that believes, since Joyce and Faulkner wrote good literature, you can directly adapt their words into film and automatically create good cinema.

With Watchmen it's particularly great because DC didn't want Moore to use Charlton characters because of the mess he was going to make of them. Now they're apparently happy to slot Moore's pseudoCharlton characters back into the DCU.
