Over the top action film as He-Man and his fighters end up on earth as Skeletor searches for a key to make him all powerful. Not bad for an 80's comic book action film. Worth a watch for grown up fans.

Thor: God of lightning
Theres good comic book movies, theres bad comic book movies and then theres Thor.
Chris Hemsworth stars as Thor, marvels answer to Gladiator.
When a truce is broken and Thor's home comes under threat by long time enemies, he ignores the command of his Father Oden and declares war. Because of this he is stripped of his position and banished to Earth. Found by jane, an astrophysicist, he must earn his powers back, stop his untrustworthy adopted brother Loki (Tom hiddleston) and save 2 Realms from total destruction. Thor is a fun film for everyone.

When Garth Carson finds a squirrel puppet from a favorite childhood show, he thinks he's found a nostalgic goldmine. Instead, he soon finds a body and a conspiracy that seems too hard to believe. In fact, that was one problem I had with the book, I just couldn't believe it. The characters were also too thin. And the "comic" part of the comic caper? Not really that funny. I did find the climax over the top yet fun, however.

Totally over the top action
OK low budget comic book horror
Part of the the grindhouse feature with Death proof, although I preferred that over this just. If you like like gory, zombie like stories with crazy plots, this is for you.

The Best DC Universe film to date
The movie version of this beloved comic book character stays almost true to her drawn counterpart. She has compassion and a drive to do good in the world.

"I read this when I was 21 and was knocked out by the darkness of the satire and the incredible comic rhythms created. Bob Slocum is scared of everything. A book about being destroyed by your own fears, and the inability to confront them."

 came across this book by accident after seeing it as a recommendation at the side of my page and I clicked on it, saw the link to the web-comic and clicked it and before I knew it, I was devouring this book/story/comic.<br/><br/>I was so easily drawn into it, flipping through the pages like it was going to last forever and then it just ended...the creators got caught up in real life, getting jobs and finishing school and the comic was no more. *sob*

I initially wanted to cry at finding this out; the comic was so good! It was funny in places, sweet in others, sexy at times, serious at others. I wanted to see how it was all going to end. Unfortunately that didn't happen but the creators did write an ending for each of the budding relationships in the story and I'm more or less happy with it.

I LOVED the artwork for this. The duo is very talented and I wish them luck in future endeavours!
