If you want to read a comic book.. read a comic book.. and if you'd like to watch a movie.. watch a movie?

Comic book movies are all shit imo. It's nothing more than mainstream entertainment with little brains for the middle/lower class audiences.

V for Vendetta?

I saw that film about a month ago for the first time... I didn't know anything about it beforehand and in fact assumed "V" with the mask was in fact called "that guy" because a user on this site has an avatar with him on.

Good film too, I didn't realise it was based from a comic though.

I think the Halo movie, if it ever comes out of cold storage, could have the potential. The backstory of the universe has the potential to be a fantastic movie.

Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

actually they based their movies on the ultimate marvel universe storyline, although not 100% of it.

tomb raider movies were awesome.. cant wait for the third
resident evil trilogy was pretty awesomce.. cant wait for the fourth.

and a zelda movie/trilogy ala lord of the rings, has potential but i doubt nintendo would ever let it come to the silver screen

hello how are you.
