Series one of Black Mirror is okay,outside of the first episode,which is terrible tbh.But now I got all those David Cameron memes. ;-)

Last man standing is the best sitcom I saw in a while.So far,done with season 1.

@Tordel Maybe its not much of a defence,but its a movie,not a documentary.Some things were changed for the sake of drama.And as you said,some characters were fused.
But I wouldnt quite say its worst then Braveheart in that regard.

Im kinda afraid to comment it here,but here it goes...Michael Collins.A good biopic.Neeson delivers a great performance,but Rickman steals the show whenever he shows up.And you have to give the movie credit for not even pretending to be objective.

Which is not that different from prog #2000,for example.
Maybe you have some better info then me,but according to Diamond and Comichron,market share and dollar share favoured DC in recent times.That,and Didio likes to point out they sell a crapton of hardcovers/absolute/deluxe editions.Which seems pretty plausible.

Perhaps, but it's official now that the company is losing millions on its monthly print line despite the fact THEY OWN SUPERMAN AND BATMAN.

Not what the sales numbers say.2017 has been a GREAT year for DC Comics,in almost every way.

Hush is absolutely terrible and has only two things going for it:
#1 Jim Lee gets to draw all of Batman's villains, and
#2 a decent cliffhanger where it turned out Jason Todd was the baddie behind everything, only it turned out in the next issue this was a fake-out to mess with Batman's head.
The problem with #1 is that if you don't like Jim Lee - and plenty don't - this is not actually something for the plus column, and the problem with #2 is that it's lifted entirely from Alan Grant and Norm Breyfogle's Batman run from the early 1990s, which was not an obscure time in Batman's publishing history, it was when he was a cultural phenomenon again after the release of the first Burton film and his comics were selling a million copies each month in North America alone, and were reprinted in multiple territories including the UK.  Even by DC's standards of recycling old glories, that one is pretty shameful as it entailed not reprinting the Grant/Breyfogle run so as not to devalue the impact of what they were then pushing as a significant title in DC's roster, but it's worth noting that once Norm Breyfogle was back in the news for his health problems, they couldn't cash in on that publicity fast enough with a reprint of his stories.

Actually,Hush was almost a remake of Long Halloween.Loab was stealing from himself,really.
Still I like the story,but there are those who dont.
Hush himself got better once Paul Dini took him in.Thats something of a trend.And btw,Dinis run on Detective and Streets of Gotham is awesome,and sadly unappreciated.

Im not really sure what owning a tv proves either way.

I would recommend Come and See,in that case.But its not an easy watch.At all.

Sharky,wouldnt you by definition hate war movies then?
I mean that as a neutral question.

It's also worth remembering that $10bn in international aid donations following the Haitian earthquake allegedly disappeared under the stewardship of Bill and Hillary Clinton. Apparently, even though they loved Haiti enough to spend part of their honeymoon there, the Clintons prioritised sinking aid money into garment factories and a business centre over addressing the problems of ordinary Haitians made destitute and suffering cholera outbreaks following the earthquake.

Also,a good point.

Well,grandstand all you want,but would YOU live in Haiti?Yeah,didnt think so.
Its not about race,its about crime and corruption.Some places are shitholes.I could name a few shitholes in this country.Most of them 90% white.

So Trump is a racist. Gosh. Who could possibly have guessed?

I would book a holiday in Haiti right away,just to prove him wrong,if I were you.

Got aome stuff at GOG.Stronghold Crusader,Jazz Jackrabbit,Army Men RTS...

Ran into my ex in the metro today.What a great day to be a train driver.
