ParticipantGiven that Asia comprises 2/3rds of the global population, it's probably somewhat unfair to tar them all with the same brush… but sure, I get what you're saying… there are hentai artists drawing stuff that would make your hair stand on end… and yet in Japan that stuff is sold side by side with [relevant vanilla manga series].
I think muscle is an issue for a pretty obvious reason… people equate strength with men… hence muscle = male and thusly, muscle on a female = a male quality which is bad… The West has a VERY specific idea of what feminine is at the moment – or to be more specific, the media is telling us what we should think is feminine and to go burn in the fires of social damnation should we dare to eschew their collective judgement on what is the last word in the female form this week.
Which is – as we probably all know all too well – the charming famine victim look, with boobs that absolutely cannot exceed a C…
It's worse than communism.

ParticipantFor a non-sequel, Iron Man had a stupendous opening for a first time solo from Marvel studios… If Hulk gets in that ballpark, they'll do what they should have been pitching for from the start – total independence. It makes things a lot easier… rights are a nightmare when it comes to these things… I mean, I don't want to think about the rights bitching around the DC universe in terms of Smallville/JLU etc…
But if Marvel do it themselves, they can toss in cameos just for the hell of it – see Iron Man's credits.
Granted, if you look at their choice of upcomings… well, some of those are… questionable but then, that said there were tabloid reviews saying Iron Man was the "least known hero"… so, I suppose when you pitch outside the big leagues of Captain America, Spidey, Bats and Superman… you're always going to get a lot of people going "who?"
Anyways, it would be great if Marvel went it alone on Spiderman 4… especially if Sam Raimi wasn't directing it… and to be honest, I'd be keen on a new Spiderman and MJ. Raimi did well in Evil Dead but while there's doubt to Spiderman, when the fuck did he become so emo? Tobster was… ok. Dunst was subpar. I'd LOVE to see Bruce Campbell as Mysterio, that would be great… but really, Spiderman 3 was rubbish. Totally ruined Venom. They didn't even CALL him Venom.

ParticipantI'm betting a lot of people here will say "nooooo! Don't reign it in!"

ParticipantI don't know, I thought gtsart's TF sequence was pretty cool… and thanks as always for posting them up, ze fly.

ParticipantAh, I finally wrestled yahoo into submission. Good stuff… the whole world is going to know about this spinach trick sooner or later.

ParticipantWow, an awesome animation from Eegore… that is more than out of the blue.
Excellent quality stuff, Eegore… although for reasons I'm entirely perplexed by it doesn't want to play in vlc… still, wunderbar. Fantastic.

ParticipantAh, the Orphan bill again… yeah, someone posted this over on the Process some time ago.
After the initial frothing at the mouth, a lot of people pointed out what Lingster did and also that – this bill has been brought forward several times and smacked down. So, no need to worry.

ParticipantAh, Eegore's stuff… I was never exactly clear as to why he took it down so abruptly but I think that it's probably best to OK the redistribution of his work with him first before anyone goes posting anything willy nilly.

ParticipantLooking at this again… did anyone notice that the Flash is built like a shit brick house? Seriously… I'm not sure how I missed that the first time around, it looks like he could beat Superman senseless.

ParticipantAren't you a day late for April Foolin'?
