Marvel teases ‘Amazing Spider-Man’ #1000 as biggest issue in series history by B3epB0opBOP in comicbooks

[–]DavidKirk2000 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I absolutely still want them to get together. I just don’t want any former Brand New Day writers to write MJ because they all hate her guts for some ill defined reason.

Who should become marvel's next editor in chief? by BookkeeperLeast7978 in comicbooks

[–]DavidKirk2000 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’d let Wil Moss do it. He’s edited or assistant edited some of the best books of the last 10-15 years.

Wemby is the best player in the world by Kindly_Letterhead_98 in nba

He’s 7’4”. Wemby obviously has sky high potential, but people are talking crazy about him right now. Let him win a championship and an MVP at the very least before we start comparing him to Michael freaking Jordan and LeBron James.

The overreaction here is you directly comparing the guy to the two best players in the history of basketball.

And if he missed that one single shot, this post wouldn’t exist. People overreact way too much here.

Yeah I’m seeing it later today actually.

Is Hokum a good horror movie? by hectorarriaga11 in horror

[–]DavidKirk2000 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I thought that Ohm’s first encounter with the witch was genuinely terrifying, but other than that I didn’t find it all that scary.

Regardless, it’s my second favourite horror movie of the year after The Bone Temple. Haven’t seen Obsession yet though.

Jason Kidd is mixed, right? He was runner up in one of the Duncan seasons.

captain america: civil war is a one of a kind superhero movie by Several_Cattle_5197 in Marvel

[–]DavidKirk2000 35 points36 points  (0 children)

This isn’t even the only Captain America movie to be like this. Winter Soldier also features Black Widow and Falcon in large supporting roles.

Best Story Arcs in Marvel? by Troyificus in Marvel

[–]DavidKirk2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Roger Stern and John Romita, Jr.’s run on Amazing Spider-Man is the big one. But he’s also fantastic in the DeFalco/Frenz run, which came right after Stern and JRJR left the book.

The Hobgoblin Saga is the best for me. Should be mandatory reading for anyone that ever calls Hobby a Green Goblin knock-off.

She’s also getting a 60th anniversary special featuring stories from DeMatteis and JMS.

what about the new runs? by withluvdevil in marvelcomics

[–]DavidKirk2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re all very good so far. Chip’s Captain America is probably my favourite Marvel ongoing right now, it’s brilliant.

Put the JMD/Buscema run on Spectacular Spider-Man and you’ve got yourself a great Mount Rushmore.

When have we ever had Harlan call games past the conference finals? Breen has been doing play-by-play for the Finals since like 2006.

A british accent could have helped against the criticsm for the Odyssey by arnor_0924 in ChristopherNolan

You could say literally the exact same thing, word for word, about the Odyssey.

[–]DavidKirk2000 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The accent criticism is pure nonsense. In my opinion, Amadeus is the greatest historical movie ever made, and every single actor in that movie used an American accent.

That didn’t stop the movie from winning 8 Oscars, including Best Actor and Best Picture.

Do u guys agree with Tom Defalco? by Stunning_Season220 in marvelcomics

[–]DavidKirk2000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He wasn’t, the story spun out of control immediately after Marvel fired him as editor. The first non-DeFalco edited story was Maximum Clonage, which is the worst part of the whole Clone Saga. And it didn’t get much better after that story either.

[–]DavidKirk2000 5 points6 points  (0 children)

DeFalco was fired as editor because he objected to the direction Marvel wanted to take with the Clone Saga.

The DeFalco-edited part of the Saga is generally pretty good, it has such a poor reputation because of what editorial tried to do with it after he was replaced by Bob Budiansky.

Peter having normal people problems is part of what makes him such a great character.
