Yeah I saw that. Maybe it just takes a week or two for the Viagra to kick in. Hopefully it does.

I hope he doesn't overdo it. That could be harmful...

Holy shit...wait a minute. I get it now. "You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villian", its forshadowing! Harvey didnt die at the explosions while he was held as a hero...and he ended up living and saw himself become, dun dun, a villian! Im seriously just now getting this! Atleast that I can rememeber...thats perfect though.

My first comicbook movie that I can remember watching in theaters was Batman Forever. I thought the movie was awesome then.

For real?

 

[Jandrew]

Yes, forreal. I dont analyze every little thing in a movie, but that just happened to stick out. As I said Ive probably caught it before, but I dont remember.

Ninja Turtles was a huge phenomenon when I was little. Everyone I knew in pre-school loved it. We would all have Turtle-themed birthday parties. I had a shitload of the toys. My mom recently forced me to get rid of a bunch of them, though I did keep some of the oldest ones just because of sentimental value.

One of my best friends at that time had that white globe-like thingie with the eye on the top. You could open it up and there was all this cool little stuff in there. Was really jealous of that.

Shredder's Technodrome. I had that one.

You bastard!

Let's be serious. Toys were all about...

 

 

AND

 

[redfirebird2008]

Yeah, I was pretty spoiled. Only toy I really regret not getting was the Batman Returns Batmobile that would turn into a speeding bullet. I had the original B89 Batmobile, a camoflouge Batmobile, and the BTAS Batmobile. I think my mom just didn't think I needed another one, haha. I did get the sewer vehicle from Returns though.

It was ONLY about these things when I was growing up

 

 

 

 

 

Never got into GI Joe or Voltron ... of course, I think I just enjoyed a pseudo live action version of Voltron in Pacific Rim

OMG this just made my day.

[A Marvel Fanboy]

 

Adam Sandler's sequel was savaged by most reviewers -- including our featured critic Eric Snider -- and still did quite well, with an estimated $42.5 million, close behind the second weekend ofDespicable Me 2, which grossed $44.8 million. But Pacific Rim wasn't far behind, taking in $38.3 million.

 

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the number for Pacific Rim is "troubling," while the total forGrown Ups 2 is "stellar," an evidently yawning gap of barely more than $4 million. Of course, the difference is the production budgets. Pacific Rim is reported to have cost in the neighborhood of $200 million, while Grown Ups 2 cost a "relatively modest" $80 million.

 

Contemplate that for a moment: 80 MILLION DOLLARS for that? What that really emphasizes is that both movies cost more than they should have.

The big lesson here is not that U.S. audiences rejected an "original" movie in favor of sequels; the lesson is that, given a choice, 1 out of 3 moviegoers chose a big, noisy action movie with no major stars from a director who is largely unknown to the public, rather than either a Sandler or animated sequel. To me, that's a victory for the people.

Maan you were like Richie Rich. Had all the cool stuff. I only had 1 Batmobile. The original, from the 89 movie.

Also had the mansion/cave from Batman Returns. That was frickin' badass.

 

[kitik]

my first superhero movie in theaters was Ghost Rider 2     

 

wow, not even one of the recent Marvel movies before that???

 

 

The first superhero movie I saw in theaters was either Superman 3 or Superman 2.

 

I know for a fact that I saw Superman 3 in theaters, but I'm not sure if I saw Superman 2 on tv or what.
