The Panels On Pages PoP-Cast!

Joshua wrote:As for the topic at hand, I can't believe comic books are being compared to Picasso and Beethoven. I love comic books, no doubt about it, but I don't think they're so culturally significant that we need to start a movement to preserve them.

The point that comics are harder to find for non-readers is bogus. If anything comics are easier to find. I can't remember the last time I went to a bookstore that didn't have both graphic novels and single issues. Maybe you won't find comics in gas stations anymore, but the selection is also a lot more broad.

I disagree. I think they're a truly great American artform.

I never said they weren't great, I just don't think they're some sacred endangered species that we need to rally behind, particularly with comic book movies being as big as they are right now, with no slowdown in sight.

You love Jasmin, of course you'd fuck the redhead named Ariel - it's like the one two punch of hooking up with Foxy AND Airwolf, and we all know you hate whites.

Joshua wrote:All this mention of Foxy is giving me the vapors.

Debaser77 wrote:I kinda got miffed at Miguel constantly stating "You all have probably never heard of the comics I have." That's not a good way to win people over to your cause, because I'd say a good percentage of us are pretty well-read when it comes to comics that aren't from the Big Two.

Joshua wrote:He hated Labyrinth. He kept saying, "It's just David Bowie singing to a roomful of Muppets" like that's a bad thing.

Mnemosis wrote:I love Muppets. I love David Bowie. David Bowie singing to a room full of Muppets should have been called Muppapalooza or something, not Labyrinth. For a movie called Labyrinth, I wanted all the best parts of Legend and the Neverending Story, but y'know, in a maze. Instead, I got Muppapalooza.

Mnemosis wrote:Tis a fair request. As for Labyrinth... I was an only child with no friends. I know what the front of the box tells me, so all I knew was Bowie dressed weird and the name Labyrinth. That painted a vivid picture in my mind that the movie did not match in the least.
