I would love to see this...

 

HBO Watchmen Series

 

I don't know.

 

If they went with the original story, it would seem played out as we have already seen/read it twice before.

 

If they go with the Before Watchmen stuff it could be good but in the end you still know where it is going to end up so it would not be very satisfying. To me anyways.

 

I was thinking they could create new material within the Before era. They'd have a lot of freedom and space.

 

Agreed.

 

It still leaves what we know is inevitably to come. It is hard for me to become invested because of that.

 

True.

 

I'm just hungry for a "good" comic book-based TV series. I'm either bored or insulted with the current lot.

 

Off topic...but I saw the first two episodes of Limitless and liked it. Made me laugh a few times too.

 

Lots of potential with comic book series. You did see Daredevil right? I can't remember.

Yes...loved it.

So...studio exec gives you a wad of cash and wants you to develop a hit adult tv series based on a comic book...what source material do you use?

Creepy.

Thanks for posting that...that was great. I listened to the whole thing. I don't think I've ever heard anything from his first band before.

I hadn't heard the Joker's Wild songs either. That was one of reasons I wanted to share.

There's so much wrong here, I wouldn't even know where to begin.

The bottle is a limited edition collectible — Pepsi is planning on only making a run of 6,500 bottles — and will be sold only while supplies last. Those looking to purchase the bottle can do so for $20.15, not quite as pricey as the $50 that Christopher Lloyd's Doc Brown gave Marty in the film. The bottle will be sold online, though Pepsi recommends fans check out the company's social media pages closer to the Oct. 21 launch date to know exactly where they can purchase it.

Editor needed.

Saw this last night.

I highly recommend it.

TALOS - U.S. military is on its way to getting its Iron Man

The military's suit will be made of liquid armor that can solidify on command.

Fitted with the protective gear -- the Tactical Assault Light Operator Suit, or TALOS -- troops would be more lethal and better protected, particularly the vulnerable first soldier to breach a compound.

An amalgam of academics, defense industry types and Pentagon personnel are trying to fine-tune the battery-powered exoskeleton, which would reduce strain on the body, provide superior ballistic protection and in-helmet technologies to boost communications and visibility.
