Oh, MM. I am SO with you.
Not just Impulse, but also Superboy (Kon-El; Conner Kent).
So. Fucking. WRONG.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Sorry, my nom de Internet is Corwood Industries and I'll be playing the part of your grumpy old naysayer today.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
all of the deviations from the comic made the story worse, not better
Oh, I disagree.
The romance was, no question about it, completely lame and stupid on every level. (Especially since it came out of NOWHERE and up until the "I fell in love with you! Er, at some point!" scene I'd been watching the movie on the assumption that it was still the creepy father-daughter relationship from the comic.)
But Evey in the first 2/3rds or so of the comic is so pathetically and 2-dimensionally written that it just makes me cringe every time I read it. So I was pleased to see that she'd been upgraded to a real person in the movie.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I'm pissed that they killed off Big Barda . That really sucks.

MM, because DC hates me, is all I can figure.
t edit Scola, me too! That one REALLY bothers me. (Since I've [kind of] recovered from them killing off Superboy. )

So says you! I like ice cream and puppies, especially when they're written and filmed well and played with real heart.
