Yeah I was expecting a bit more action, but it at the very least hinted at utter brutality. I guess we'll have to wait for the full (hopefully red band) trailer.

Right now I´m watching the final credits of the 20th Century Boys live-action, hoping there´s something after that...

Unfortunately, I feel I wasted 140 minutes of my life watching that film... Just read the manga, guys!!!

Curb Your Enthusiasm on Justin.tv

God I have a love hate relationship with this show. There's obviously very smart writing going on here, it's just that Larry David is such a prick. Everytime he opens his mouth I want to punch him in the face.

Really!? I often find Larry to be right a lot of the time, just totally impolite. He says what we're all thinking. I love him

He's always thinking things that we know are inappropriate. I think the hook of the show is making us hate LD.

Yeah, but you love to hate him.

I think it's time I watched the entire X-Files series again. Or at least the first 6 seasons. I was thinking about all the awesome episodes I want to go back and watch recently, but there's too many so I'll just watch them all.

I haven't watched X-Files in quite awhile either, but I remember the first season or two being very underwhelming. Just about every "paranormal" occurrence had the most disappointing explanation. "Oh, that's not the Loch Ness Monster. People are just overreacting about an ordinary crocodile". I'm amazed the show survived long enough in those earlier years, to be able to get any better. Other shows that were better to begin with, have been canceled in the middle of their second seasons.

The X-Files is for geeks! Go Buffy the Vampire Slayer!

Yeah, the show really gets going in it's third season which is the best in my opinion, but the first two seasons still had some awesome episodes. Plus some of the mythology is put in place so I wouldn't skip them.

X-Files owns Buffy in virtually every way possible

I never could get into Buffy because it was too WBtastic (Dawson's Creek and Smallville are other shows that fit the profile). Hurray, let's get a bunch of good-looking white people mostly in their late teens or early 20s, have them living in a bubble (usually at least somewhat rural), and depending upon what our marketing research indicates, we might make half of it a soap opera, and an unusually large portion of the show could take place at night because teen dramas that take place during the daytime just aren't as cool.

I wouldn't consider openly associating myself with Buffy as an interest, to be much of a social upgrade from being identified with X-Files.
