I will take Marvel's weakest movie ten times over the crap some other movie company makes. I know that Spiderman I and II, X-Men I and II were not done by Marvel but they were done by people who loved those characters. When those characters were taken away from them, Raimi and Singer, and made by the studios, we got X-Men III and Spiderman III.

I liked Edward Norton in his version of the Hulk. The thing that makes me very leery of Mark Ruffalo is that he is a certified moron. If you've ever seen what he has to say on issues you realize the man probably has problems tying his shoes in the morning, and he's wearing loafers.

I thought Captain America was a very good movie, maybe even one of the best of last year. I thought it was very patriotic and its use of special effects, making Chris Evans scrawny, was seamless. Joe Johnston made the very under appreciated "The Rocketeer" and I thought he brought the same type of gung ho, pro-America feel into Cap as he did to Rocketeer. I can't wait for "The Avengers" and while there have been some misses, Marvel Studios still excites me and I can't wait to see what they have in store for us in the future.

He is a professor of English at Washington College and he podcasts his lectures, and talks on Tolkien, fantasy, etc. He is Christian, he stated that on an old podcast, and gives no postmodernist claptrap to his lectures (I know, I listen for crap like this and would not listen if it did.) I cannot recommend his podcast enough.

I'm looking forward to that game.

Here in Oregon, we vote by mail. I didn't trust the mail so I turned my ballot in on Sunday. I wish I could go to the local Tea Party celebration tonight but I am suffering from and recuperating from a very intense bout of Kidney Stones. I will be watching and following the results tonight.

The problem though was that they were the Red Shirts.

I guess he's just buttering himself up before his Communist masters. Sat, 18 Apr 2009 15:22:29 +0000 http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=cp_gscbljk5918#IDComment19225120
