OMG yes yes, Jack will always be the Joker I love...mostly cause I'm scared spitless of the Heath Ledger one. Though, I think the reason everything now is based on pre-existing shows/books is because they KNOW there's an audience for them. I mean, you could make your own personal story into a movie, but do you know it'll sell? You make something from a current popular culture(like Akira, currently in works I believe), you're gonna already have a huuuuuuuuge fan base that will fork over money. We shall not mention the movie that shall not be mentioned(DBZ) that proves just cause you can make it doesn't mean you should.

Yes, there's a new Conan out, but unfortunately the only preview right now is stupid and smoky. I'm waitin on a new one to determin if it's good. I know they made more, I recall watching at least three when I was growing up...my whole family likes the 'bad' movies LOL

I, too, try to not recall the DnD movies. Specially since I took a lot of non-gamer friends and then had to explain for the next MONTH it wasn't like THAT!

I LOVE ZORRO THE GAY BLADE!!! Oh, and cause I'm the harbinger of all random things, they're apparently making a post-apocalyptic(or talking about making) version. I will see it if they make it, and I will enjoy it, if only for the Zorro-ness of it.

Demonskid...I think I love you, I loooooooooved The Cat Who series...I just dunno how they'd do it as a series of movies.... Maybe two or three REALLY well done ones would be fantastic. They've got the tech now to make the whole thing very, very believable.

Mizeria, that must be why you like the original two x-men movies, the director had NEVER read a comic, so they gave him the 90s animated series to watch. He only made it through the Phoenix Saga before he decided he was ready to go. The third movie was done by an actual fan(hence why I loved it most). The director for First Class was supposed to do Three, but backed out because he wasn't sure he could do it justice, so here's to hoping he got all his ducks in a row! I'll be looking for easter eggs for long time fans since we're bringing in a looooooooot of old school(many currently dead/out of the comic loop) characters.

And yes, that caught me up on others, now for new news from me!

So, I got to see Thor before it premiered and OMG looooooooved it! Though not my first comic love I'd touched off and on with it over the years. The cast was good, despite some reservations, and the effects weren't 'OMG can we dooz more shiniez nao'. Up next will be XFC the week after I go on vaca.... Aaaaaaand, I completely forgot in the first post to include Preist, a story based on a Korean Graphic Novel! Also looks very, very good!
