  1. They should have gotten the WWE's Triple H to be Conan.

    They kind of used the premise for the 1st, but modernized and changed it....a lot. The only thing the others share with the books are the titles.
  4. While I'm a big fan of Peter David's run on Hulk, like everyone else, but I had to vote for the Born Again story from Daredevil by Miller/Mazzucchelli. One of the best stories ever.

    The Batman

    My son and I really like watching Batman: the Brave and the Bold, but when that one isn't on we watch Batman cartoons online. Batman: TAS is too dark in many ways, so The Batman is a good compromise.
  6. I'm glad to see him come back for the end.

    I am also in the group that wishes things would continue in a "Metropolis" or just plain "Superman" show. I've really enjoyed this season, except for some of the preachy stuff about Clark being a great hero and all that. Otherwise, I'm enjoying it a lot but it's making me sad that it's going to end.
  7. Where are the monkeys and gorillas? They are the staples of animal characters in comic books!

    Cool looking pack, though. I might have to break down and get this. I don't get most of them only having purchased the martial arts and science ones.

    Burned Out

    I was feeling burnt out with the whole WTF and feeling the need to get a Notice of the Well for all my 50s every week, but I've decided to take a step back from it and refuse to feel any pressure. I'm just going to enjoy the fact that people are running task forces regularly enough to accommodate my hectic schedule and that I'm able to play content that I didn't previously. Although, I do admit to feeling a bit inadequate when playing on a level 50 toon when there are 50 (+1)'s around, so I do want to get them all up to speed, but I'm not going to be rushed into it.
  9. I have teamed with many people claiming to be at work while playing. I always seethe with jealousy.
  10. I have tons of toons and many 50s spread throughout the servers, but since Going Rogue came out, I've been doing most of the new content with one toon. The rest of the 50s get some attention rarely, and my lower toons get almost no playtime since the Incarnate stuff came about. I've even begun accolade hunting on my main, ninja/dark mastermind, and that's something that I've never done before. It's kind of a pain to imagine getting all my 50s their weekly Notice of the Well, and I have been trying to do so, but it's more trouble than it's worth. So, after I get bored playing on my main, then I'll play with something else. But it's been awhile since that's happened. So, I've been hit with a case of anti-altitis as well.

    Seriously. Her endurance never falls below 90% naturally. With enemies actively sapping her endurance? It rarely, if ever, drops below 50%. Malta? Pushovers.
    On all of my toons, I have gone with the Musculature. 45% more damage!

    I'm ready to rock as soon as I get another Notice of the Well on Tuesday. Looking forward to seeing what it can do.
  13. I've noticed that people are a lot more relaxed on Virtue than they were a couple of years ago about not totally RPing all the time. I wouldn't worry too much about it. It's a fun server to play on with lots of people.
  14. For awhile I thought that we were going to get lvl 50 (+2) from the 4th tier. Since it said "this applies a level shift" or something to that effect. I don't think I would have tried so hard to get both sides of the tree done if I'd realized that we top out at 50 +1 right now.
  15. Die Hard 4 was another story altogether and they just rammed John Mclain in there to make it a Die Hard movie. If they would make another Die Hard movie in the vein of the 3rd or something, that would be cool. I mean, if there were a legitimate reason for John McLain to be involved in another crazy situation, other than happening to be there when terrorists took over or something like the first 2, then yeah, it would be cool.
  16. Awesome commercial. I'm a father to a young boy and and a Star Wars fan so it's very cool on multiple levels for me.
  17. Daredevil has always been my favorite. When portrayed the right way Daredevil/Matt Murdock seems to answer the question: "Wouldn't someone who jumps off rooftops and fights crime in spandex be a little crazy?" And in some of the story arcs, the best ones, Matt/Daredevil has lost it many times and goes a little or a lot insane. Also, when you throw out the fact that other characters that came up in Matt's situation (semi-abusive, alcoholic father. abandoned by his mother) would have probably turned into villains and yet, Matt's a hero. He's one of the most interesting characters in comics in my opinion.

    I haven't read the most recent stuff from Andy Diggle due to financial cutbacks but I intend on catching up via TPBs soon.

    This and this. I've been wanting a quiver for my archer toons for years.
  19. I've had this happen many times on TFs and normal missions. Leader goes afk and the rest of us stand around unable to do anything until he/she comes back. Think about the time invested in some of those SFs. Once this happened on the last mission of the LRSF and the whole team had to quit right at the end. Could teams have a co-leader or second in command that could also choose missions and kick? Would that have such a big impact on the game?

    Learn from this lesson, and walk away from this thread. It will not get any prettier as it goes along. Before making any more suggestions, I highly recommend you do the proper work necessary to ensure it is a workable suggestion. It takes a lot of work to make a good suggestion, and junk thrown on the board will get the treatment one would expect.

    If you think I'm being rude, you do not have skin thick enough to be throwing up poorly constructed, flawed suggestions.
    This is all just your opinion as well.

    I'm sure someone, somewhere wants the old Moment of Glory back, or exclusive armor toggles on tanks (for some reason,) but they were changed for a reason. Defiance 1.0 didn't help Blaster performance or survivability. They seem rather happy with Defiance 2.0 - as do most blasters, informally. (Defiance 1.0 is also tarred with being Jack's baby, with the suggestion to "tell your team not to heal you!" among other gems. Remember, a dead blaster is causing no damage (other than being used for a corpse bomb, with the appropriate powersets.)
    Point taken, but this thread, as well as all our opinions are just that, our opinions. Several times recently I've been at the end of my health bar, about to die, on a lowbee blaster and I've come to miss the old defiance in those instances. The old version used to help me with killing the last of a mob as I'm about to die with some massive damage. I've never cared for the new version in comparison. But, that's just my opinion.

    I'll admit that I'm obviously in the minority here, and that most of you think it's a bad suggestion, but that means that it is just your opinions that it's a bad suggestion. I still maintain that it's a good suggestion. All you have to do is express your opinion of it, I don't see the need to be rude about any of this.

    -signed by the committee for bad suggestion advisement, advising you to always search first or risk making a bad suggestion.
    I did search first, and it's only your opinion that it's a bad suggestion.

    I'm excited about Kung Fu Panda 2. I'm going to take my kids to see it. Big fans of the original.
  25. My Archery/TA Corrupter, Bloodbow, got level shifted Saturday. I guess he's my "main" on Virtue. Can't wait to get a (+2) on that guy.
