In the late 80's it was Alan Moores "Watchmen" and "Batman-the Killing Joke" along side Frank Millers "Dark Knight Returns" In the late 90's we had... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~283972374148 Sun, 26 Nov 2006 16:34:07 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_283972374148?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_283749420676?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hickry-hawkins - I'm always a fan of the B-movie. I can't stand when someone does a review of a B-film and they totally pick it apart. For crying out loud IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE BAD! Yet even when a crew goes out of their way to make a bad one, brilliance can still shine... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~283749420676 Sun, 26 Nov 2006 03:31:14 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_283749420676?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_261645635204?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author hickry-hawkins - AVP was probably the most anticipated horror film ever! For years film buffs had argued who was tougher in a fight, and what would happen if the two species ever went to war. Well, they finally made the film and they shouldn't have bothered.

Hawkman, as a character, has been rebooted SEVEN times since first appearing in FLASH COMICS #1. As many continuity problems as the character has had, he's always been a favorite among fans.

I'd given up on Heath Ledger's career a few years ago. The only good film he's ever been in was THE PATRIOT.
