All of us… even the world itself… began in darkness.
When you think of smokin’ hot Marvel Comics babes, the Scarlet Witch probably isn’t one of the first names that spring to mind.
In other news, an apparent EMP went off in Pennsylvania, and all the metal in a local artist’s apartment suddenly became magnetized…
If you could pick a superhuman ability, what would you pick and what would you use it for?
That’s not you asking ME the question, that’s me asking YOU the question. But I’ll answer it anyway:
My number-one pick would be the ability to stop time. I snap my fingers and the world stops… except for me. What would I use it for? It might sound silly, but the MAIN reason I’d use it would be to get a good night’s sleep. Seriously. I could stay up until 3:00am, sleep for 10 or 11 hours, then wake up at 3:00am and keep doing whatever it was I was doing, fully rested. I could probably use it to get a lot more work done, depending on if I could make my laptop work. The down side is that I’d appear to age faster than everyone else, but that’s okay; I’m more of a “burn brighter, not longer” kind of guy.
Other than that one, there’s only two other’s I’ve ever fantasized about having. One is telekinesis. Very powerful telekinesis… strong enough to crush a car like a soda can or send one into orbit with the flick of a finger. What would I do with it? Let’s just say that the term “road rage” would take on an entirely new dimension. The third one is teleportation. Anyone who’s spent 2 hours in Atlanta traffic trying to go 5 miles will know why I’d want that. Plus, I’m just too lazy to walk up a flight of stairs if I can avoid it.
Your turn.
Is this the movie that makes vampires scary again?
Because they’re not. Scary. Not scary. At all.
Vampires have been EVERYWHERE for the past 10 years, and Hollywood hasn’t seemed to catch on to the fact that familiarity destroys fear. Kills it. Dead.
So does 30 Days of Night change all that?
(more…)
We hid with the bodies. Squirmed in deep and hunkered down. They were so busy with their war machines and so smart with their alien virus, they didn’t actually stop to see who was dead and who wasn’t. Lucky us. Now, once we squirm out from under these corpses we’ll… wait… why are they moving?
