sometimes people up in morningside heights want pizza too, you asshole.

I'll wait for the Tobey-Topher-Franco NC-17 threeway edition

TOO FAKE

actually Topher-Franco wd be goodnuff. Perhaps if Topher Grace had played Spider-Man, Peter Parker wdn't seem like a whiny stoner?

― Dr Morbius, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 16:18 (seventeen years ago) link

morbius i think you would like it

― s1ocki, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 16:19 (seventeen years ago) link

just kidding

― s1ocki, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 16:19 (seventeen years ago) link

wait, topher grace DOESN'T seem like a whiny stoner to you? i can never tell when you're just bald-faced lying.

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Tuesday, 1 May 2007 16:20 (seventeen years ago) link

Not whiny! Or maybe in TM's defense, that horrible, horrible "oh my, superpowers or The Girl, this is Hamlet for mental 12-year-olds" shit is mostly to blame.

― Dr Morbius, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 16:22 (seventeen years ago) link

why do you even keep trying to see or discuss movies based on comic books, dude?

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Tuesday, 1 May 2007 16:23 (seventeen years ago) link

I wanted to like these movies I really did but I don't think I can even bring myself to watch this one. Venom is like the stupidest comic book plot device ever.

and Topher woulda TOTALLY made a better Peter Parker than Maguire

― Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 16:25 (seventeen years ago) link

I like them when they are well done. ie, not this series.

― Dr Morbius, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 16:26 (seventeen years ago) link

you more of an elektra fan

― s1ocki, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 16:28 (seventeen years ago) link

which one(s) did you think were well-done, Morbz?

― Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 16:32 (seventeen years ago) link

I've found the recent spate of films (was X-Men the beginning...?) totally horrible, with a couple significant exceptions that I'm pretty sure you didn't appreciate, like the Batman movie.

― Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 16:33 (seventeen years ago) link

(plz don't say the Hulk)

― Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 16:33 (seventeen years ago) link

oh topher would have been perfect for pp

― river wolf, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 16:34 (seventeen years ago) link

Spider Man >>>> Hulk >>>> X-Men

― Catsupppppppppppppp dude ‫茄蕃‪, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 16:37 (seventeen years ago) link

Trying to think of a good one since Superman II. Does the Japanese Tetsuo count? (I skipped all the X-Men)

― Dr Morbius, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 16:38 (seventeen years ago) link

oh duh, Ghost World.

― Dr Morbius, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 16:38 (seventeen years ago) link

you guys are both just trying to fuck with everyone, right?

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Tuesday, 1 May 2007 16:40 (seventeen years ago) link

omg ghost world

― s1ocki, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 16:41 (seventeen years ago) link

ooh Tetsuo is fabulous (I've never seen the comic book)

American Splendor?

― Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 16:41 (seventeen years ago) link

I do think by-and-large the superhero films all suffer from the crudest of "let's cash-in on this trend" sensibilities. As a child I longed to see comic books translated to the big screen and couldn't understand why it was so rarely done, but now that the market is flooded with the material its just kinda... gross: Elektra, Catwoman, Daredevil, Hellboy, the Hulk, those last couple pre-Nolan Batman movies, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Fantastic Four, V for Vendetta, X-Men 3, Ghost Rider...

― Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 16:46 (seventeen years ago) link

you're blowing my mind here dude.

― s1ocki, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 16:49 (seventeen years ago) link

THIS IS WHY WE CAN'T HAVE NICE THREADS

― ghost rider, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 16:52 (seventeen years ago) link

okay well then just explain to me how they deal with the Venom-origin thing, cuz I'm assuming there's no Secret Wars/Beyonder sequence

― Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 16:56 (seventeen years ago) link

I should go to Mike White's Year of the Dog this weekend to support Hollywood films for grownups.

― Dr Morbius, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 17:00 (seventeen years ago) link

Does battle royale count?

― Will M., Tuesday, 1 May 2007 17:06 (seventeen years ago) link

sometimes people up in morningside heights want pizza too, you asshole.

THE PIZZA PLACE IS IN THE WEST VILLAGE AND CLEARLY THE 40 BLOCKS WERE NOT IN MORNINGSIDE HEIGHTS

― Catsupppppppppppppp dude ‫茄蕃‪, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 17:09 (seventeen years ago) link

-- Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, May 1, 2007 12:56 PM (16 minutes ago)

they do the full secret wars thing.

― s1ocki, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 17:13 (seventeen years ago) link

for crying out loud jon, you're questioning the scope of his pizza delivery service but accepting the fact that he's spiderman??? c'mon.

shakey, i'm not going to defend the majority of those movies, but out of "interest," how many of them have you actually seen?

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Tuesday, 1 May 2007 17:15 (seventeen years ago) link

Hellboy and Blade I-II were awesome.

― milo z, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 17:15 (seventeen years ago) link

JW, yr being ridiculously prosaic, it's clearly not the real "New York" as there was a big Chicago El train running fucking through it in "2." (You know, with the lamentable Jesus shot)

― Dr Morbius, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 17:16 (seventeen years ago) link

morbius the fact that you've seen BOTH of these movies really undermines your whole "spiderman sucks" argument, why are you wasting your time on something you'll know you hate? you can't possibly want to bone james franco that badly.

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Tuesday, 1 May 2007 17:17 (seventeen years ago) link

tho yeah, JON WHY DON'T YOU GO SUCK ON THE EL TRAIN THING

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Tuesday, 1 May 2007 17:18 (seventeen years ago) link

it doesn't, Ally. The first one I was game for, I had nothing to go on other than the daily newspaper strip. Then the second one had some decent critics writing "oh rilly rilly this is SO much better," and still I waited to RENT it to find they were clowns. Now that the non-mustache critics are saying suck on this one, I may not even take the DVD outta the liberry.

Plus I know you and Tom have already ordered tix for Indiana Jones and the Prostate of Doom.

― Dr Morbius, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 17:24 (seventeen years ago) link

what the hell does that even mean, dude? you seem the far more likely candidate to be preordering spielberg tix!

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Tuesday, 1 May 2007 17:26 (seventeen years ago) link

hello JOEK

― Dr Morbius, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 17:27 (seventeen years ago) link

wtf, guys NOT EVEN IN COMIC BOOKS WILL A PIZZA PLACE DELIVER 40 BLOCKS UPTOWN

― Catsupppppppppppppp dude ‫茄蕃‪, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 17:27 (seventeen years ago) link

OK YOU WIN FATTEY, YOU WOULD KNOW ALL ABOUT PIZZA DELIVERY

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Tuesday, 1 May 2007 17:29 (seventeen years ago) link

IN THE MOVIES COLUMBIA IS IN THE WEST VILLAKE MMMMKAY

― Dr Morbius, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 17:31 (seventeen years ago) link

THERE ARE NO NEWSPAPER OFFICES IN THE FLATIRON BUILDING JESUS PEOPLE

― ghost rider, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 17:34 (seventeen years ago) link

They should make a She-Hulk movie.

― jel --, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 17:35 (seventeen years ago) link

GUYS THE THING IS THAT IF YOU GET BIT BY A SPIDER YOU DO NOT ACTUALLY TURN INTO SPIDERMAN WTF

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Tuesday, 1 May 2007 17:36 (seventeen years ago) link

My main quibble with Spidey 3, is the ribbing on his black symbiotic suit.

― jel --, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 17:36 (seventeen years ago) link

GOD, THE RIBBING

― TOMBOT, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 17:45 (seventeen years ago) link

responding to Ally upthread I have seen:
Catwoman (TV - didn't watch the whole thing)
Daredevil (airplane)
Hellboy (TV - again didn't make it through the whole thing)
the Hulk (airplane)
those last couple pre-Nolan Batman movies (saw these cuz a bandmate worked on them and got free copies)
League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (rental)
Fantastic Four (airplane)
V for Vendetta (saw it in the theater)
X-Men 3 (rental)

so of those I listed I didn't see Elektra or Ghost Rider

― Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 17:49 (seventeen years ago) link

you have GOT TO BE FUCKING KIDDING about the Secret Wars thing! Come on spoil it for me and tell me the truth

― Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 17:50 (seventeen years ago) link
