SDCC 2014: Mike Tyson Interview

DVD Review: Lost Boys: The Thirst

“The Black Dalai Lama? Never heard of him. We’re keeping the cover.”

 

 

Lost Boys: The Thirst looks better than any straight to DVD movie I have ever seen. The few special effects worked, looked like a theatrically released movie and didn’t add to any cheesiness. The lighting, quality and all other visual components far exceeded my expectations. If you randomly walked in on any scene you wouldn’t get the “oh, I must have passed out watching the Twilight Zone and woke up during a Bruce Campbell-less SyFy original movie” feeling.

San Diego Comic-Con 2010: Odor Etiquette

                                             I'm not one to name names, but…
So you waited all year for San Diego Comic-Con, you bought your tickets the day after the previous year, you rented a hotel and flew all the way across the country. You have an iPhone app organizing all the panels you plan to attend and everything you want to do. So far, this is your week, everything's about you. But realistically, in a venue housing over 100,000 people, everything ISN'T about you and let's face it, you stink. Don't worry, you don't have to stink any longer, here's a few tips to make Comic-Con an enjoyable experience for everyone… not just you, you putrid, putrid man.

CC2010: Marvel Anime: Iron Man




After the Marvel Animation panel at Comic-Con 2009, I was overwhelmed with excitement about the Marvel Anime series. Iron Man, Wolverine, X-Men and Blade all done up with stunning art and stories by my all-time favorite writer, Warren Ellis. Eff yeah! After seeing the first episode of the Iron Man anime this year, my excitement largely trickled away.

Jeph Loeb Named Head of Marvel Television

    Jeph Loeb has officially been named the Head of Marvel Television. Marvel Studios proved themselves in the theaters with the release of their first project independent of other film studios, Iron Man. Now, they're setting their sites on television and hired the best man for the job. No stranger to comics or TV, Jeph Loeb could potentially bring Iron Man-caliber projects to the small screen. He has already proved himself as a producer/writer on both Lost and Heroes (don't worry, he had enough sense to get himself fired after the second season) and has already hinted at live-action Marvel superhero shows in development.

Comic-Con 2010: Spotlight on Stan Lee

    In true Stan Lee fashion this entire article should consist of various tangents and non-sequiturs, completely ignoring this year's “Spotlight on Stan Lee” panel. Alas, ComicsOnline's main focus is covering geek pop culture, and since there isn't a single (human) geek icon more recognizable than Smilin' Stan Lee, the panel must be reported on. The skrull that took Stan Lee's place in 1976 did not disappoint and walked on stage doing the best caricature of himself he could muster. He jumped from topic to topic like a bottomless Plinko board, completely ignoring the questions asked by the panel's moderator, Todd McFarlane.

5 TV Show Sets You Can Buy on Amazon for a Penny Gift Guide

If I had a penny for every friend I had, I would be pretty shitty at buying Christmas presents and don't worry, I am. Amazon is a great micro-economy that clearly displays supply and demand, you can make good money reselling items from your own collections that people really want and find more generally undesired items for sale dirt cheap. Let's face it, ComicsOnline reader, your friends and family probably don't expect much from you. You're the kind of person that relatives refuse to give cash to  because they know where it'll go. But there's a way around this, (no, I don't mean selling Best Buy gift cards for 75% of their value on Craigslist) save massive amounts of money on presents for people you don't really care about much in the first place (YOU CAN'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO, YOU'RE NOT MY REAL MOM, CAROL)!
