It’s non-stop action as Ms. Marvel takes on Super Skrulls in downtown Manhattan. Nothing glamourous here..nothing cerebral…just fisticuffs (can i…

Great article Sonia as ever. I would like to see a study on the various incarnations of the DC Bullet Logo...
Superman's logo has become the typography of any and every superhero logo...any time there is a spoof or homage to a hero...it is often times written in that "Superman style 3-D"....the brand has become synonymous with the product! Like "Kleenex" is used regardless of the brand of tissue...or "Coke" is often used to indicate any soda/pop/cola or Jello-O for any gelatin desert....ok, now I'm hungry......
A reply from an earlier question: my favorite season will always be Season One. Don't get me wrong, I love Lost and it;s my favorite show, etc. etc. But to me in a way it kind of jumped the shark when it went all Time Travel and showed Smokie....
Up to those points it was mind blowing. A polar bear on a tropical island? How is that possible?...oh...an animal experiment station. Aha.....The Others looking all ratty and ragged?...oh, it was just stage makeup.....
Up to a certain point, everything uncanny eventually had a logical conclusion or explination....when it went more and more sci fi it hurt me a little. Just something about the suspension of disbelief. I buy it and love the show where it's at, but something was "Lost" when it went where it is going now....make any sense?
Wonder what is happening/happened to Rose & Bernard, etc. Do you think they went back in time as well to the 1974 Dharma part like Sawyer and Co?
I don't think the baby is Ben. I thought the episode which told his back story showed him going to the island as a kid. He is not "native" born on the island and that is one reason he got the cancer in his back waaaay back when....
I saw the trailer on the Super Bowl. At first I didn't realize it was going to be GI Joe..but just another Bruckheimer (spell?) film.....i don't know if that is good or bad. It didn't look like Joe, but I understand it has to be modernized so to speak.
I don't know if I agree or disagree with comments as to whether adaptations spoil your childhood memories. For example, at the time when the Challenge of the Superfriends and the Superfriends Roast came on I was amazed and ga ga..there was Green Lantern and Hawkman on the screen! Seeing it now, sheesh that was bad. And now I only can dwell on how bad it is. If I had not seen it later, i would like to think that it would have held a greater place in my childhood.
