Fannish Items of Interest

It looks like Poltergeist is getting a remake—the movie is slated to be released in November of 2010. Am I the only one that feels this is incredibly tacky? I know I'm probably the only one who has never seen the movies.

From Den of Geek: The Ten Worst Comic Book Adaptations Of All Time. Roger Corman’s version of Fantastic Four gets a mention, as does the 1997 live action tv movie of Justice League of America. I’m surprised Generation X wasn’t mentioned, though.

The 25 Best Blockbuster Sequels of All Time. Ghostbusters 2, and Back to the Future Part 3 get mentioned.

Seven Things Your Future Self Can Teach You. Back to the Future Part 2 gets a mention, as does Doctor Who.

And now, a meme, taken from dark_wesley:

“Compliments are a great way to boost a person's self esteem, they can raise your spirits when you're down and just generally make a person feel good.

So...leave me a complimenting comment! Am I a good listener? A good writer? Do I have mad rambling skills? You can make my day with just a few nice words. Then, be sure to post this in your own LJ so that others can do the same for you.”

That's because Generation X was AWESOME. And by that I mean awesomely bad.

No, just plain old awesome!

Oh, why don't you go wax your chest hair.

You are the most equanimous person I've run across in a long while. And that is a very, very good thing.

The line about the few nice words in the meme? I find you make my day just by showing up, and then the whole staying online to talk to me. :)
Of course, sometimes this can be somewhat scary talk ;) (I know you like doing that :lol:) but I always want to talk more...
