Re: New Doctor Who 1:6 and 1:4 from Big Chief Studios! It'll be interesting to see how the companion change affects final orders for Amy. There always seems to be a dip for past companions once the shiny new thing is here.

Most normal people probably wouldn't be able to pick the Invisible Woman out of a lineup (and not just because she's invisible). I suspect Storm is the most recognizable female character Marvel has from the POV of mass market recognition.

Re: ROGUE - Your favorite look for her? Any update on when the punk Storm is coming out?

aka "some people have the gall to discuss opinions which I don't share." :)

Not everyone subscribes to the Randroid dictionary. :) Nobody claimed this.

The push for equality is always defined by victimization. But suffrage has nothing to do with rape. Equal pay for equal work has nothing to do with rape. Claiming feminism is defined by rape is like saying the black civil rights movement is defined by rape...

Yes. The point was feminism is not defined by rape.

Yes, I'm sure most men looking at a hot girl in a school uniform are thinking about the military. And everyone knows the most empowering way to respond to attempted rape is to quickly change into a pair of Daisy Dukes. :)

Perhaps not the way underage Japanese school uniforms do.

Sylvia Pankhurst is obscure? We learned about her in junior high! :monkey1

Does nobody in this thread know what that word means? :dunno

Well played, sir! :)

Or - if we can hop on the crazy train for a moment - she could have just worn normal clothes.

I wouldn't say the movie is suitable for a young boy. I think it's basically a fourteen-year-old boy's wet dream. We're all basically idiot machines driven entirely by the id at that point. The thoughtfulness of childhood has gone and the intelligence of adulthood has yet to arrive. Boobs...

I think the fact that she does it in fetish gear is pretty telling as regards the intentions of the director.
