The Return

Ben Reilly.

For those of you not in the know, he was Spider-Man's clone. The Clone Saga may be arguably the most hated story to ever come out of the 90's (see, they made it seem like the clone was the Spider-Man fans had been reading about for the past 20 years or so (not sure)) but it gave us Ben. And many people LOVE Ben (including me).

First, he was the Scarlet Spider (there's a picture of him on the blog) then he officially became Spider-Man and he had that altered Spider-Man costume (my personal favorite) and I have that issue! But I lost it. Damn it. Anyway, Ben was a clone. But you know what he did? He stood up and acted like the real deal. He acted like a hero. He went out and became a hero. As far as I'm concerned, when you talk about Spider-Man, you gotta include Ben. Because Ben rocks.

And there's some buzz on the interwebz that he might just be making a comeback. WHICH WOULD BE AMAZING. That'd be awesome. Like, that's my childhood right there. I freakin' love Ben Reilly.

PLEASE. BRING. BACK. BEN.

Spectacular!

How do you follow up BSG? With Spidey! (Two episodes worth of Spidey in fact.)

"Hmm Hmm Hhmm Spider-Man, Hmm Hmm Hhmm Spider-Man.....What? It's catchy." HAHA!

Liz is a pretty cool girlfriend actually.

Dang it this Shocker is already way better than the 616 and Ultimate versions combined.

And wow, Peter's got worse women problems than I do!

Peter's got Gwen, Liz, Sally, Betty, Felicia and MJ on this show. WOW. I want what he's got.

And Convo, if you're reading this, you have to get on this show NOW. It's pretty amazing. Heh.

WAIT WAIT WAIT (This is kinda a live blog, I'm posting as the show goes) HOLD THE PHONE AND STOP THE PRESSES JONAH!

FLASH THOMPSON III!!!!!! YOU ARE THE MAN!


Sha Shan: Flash stop, you don't have to be afraid to open your mouth around me. I like you for who you are. An honest guy who stands up for what's right.
Flash: Then dance with me. Coz honestly, I can't think of anything I'd rather do.

BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!!!!! FLASH IS THE MAN!

Man that fight scene was intense. Not as cool as the fight with Sandman a few weeks ago, but this was pretty gosh darn cool. The last bit with Tombstone and Spidery? I literally cringed when Tomby landed those hits.

Ouch with Mark and Peter after the fight.

And daaaamn. GG is back. And I ain't talkin' bout Gossip Girl. (...Okay, that was lame. :| ) That last scene with Green Goblin cackling? Chills.

(End of Gangland)

ARE YOU SERIOUS??

I FORGOT ABOUT POST NO. 200!!!!!


That kinda sucks.

Oh well, moving on.

Today was the day I did something that I will not speak of directly for fear of ridicule and on the off chance that the person whom I did said thing to reads this blog and discovers the behind-the-scenes of the thing I did. Also, I have terrible grammar apparently.

You know, I have to become a better person. In everything. I am failing at so many things. Literally and metaphorically. I am failing. I must not fail! I am not a failure. I am many things but not one of those things is a failure. I gotta step it up.

Danny Granger, my fourth favorite player ever (Ahead of him: Reggie Miller, LeBron James and Shane Battier. Behind him: (not in order) JJ Redick, Austin Croshere (the 2000 version), Rich Alvarez, LA Tenorio, Larry Fonacier, Deron Williams, Mark Jackson, Jalen Rose, Jermaine O'Neal (BEFORE he turned into the Drain)...wait, what was I gonna say about Danny again? Oh yeah. Danny's an all-star! He's a bonafide all-star this year and I hope this is the first of many all-star game selections to come. Congratulations Danny Granger!

Casey Carlson, I love you. I totally do. You are the prettiest AI contestant ever. I HOPE YOU WIN. PLEASE VISIT THE PHILIPPINES IF YOU DO AND LOOK FOR ME, YOUR NUMBER 1 FAN. I love you.

(Me = Not crazy, not a stalker, not terrible-looking. Give me a chance.)

Lost + Battlestar Galactica + Spectacular Spider-Man + Supernatural + The Office + Entourage + Friday Night Lights = One of the finest seasons of television ever.

The preview of Guardians of the Galaxy #10 is up on CBR. I am loving those first few panels.

Saw the second Transformers trailer. I CANNOT WAIT FOR THIS MOVIE. Please please please please let it be the greatest thing ever. "Constructicons, merge for the kiiillll!"

Gab Doller, miss ka namin pare.

Toodles.

The Spectacular Spider-Man S02E03 "Reinforcement" Live Blog!

With some fried chicken and rice on hand, I now present to you, my invisible public, The Spectacular Spider-Man!

-"Thanks Blackie! I owe you an eggnog!"

- Great exchange:

Spidey: "Ho ho ho, I'm Spidey-Claus and what would your name be young man?"
Criminal with an EYE-PATCH: "Patch. Patch!"
Spidey: "Wow. Did your parents have foresight or what?"

- Whoa. Waittamniute. A Sinister Seven??

- I just love the theme song.

- Cletus?? KASSIDY?? Great easter egg.

- Damn pussycat Kraven.

- Damn hispanic Liz Allen.

- So that solves the Sinister 7 problem, no Doc Ock.

- I feel like Peter with the whole Liz-Gwen thing. :(

- LOL at the MJ "Distraction" moment.

- Sorting Coco! Haha. God I hope they get together on this show.

- HAHA! With the burnt tongue! Man this show is awesome. Yay :D

- Electro can shoot electricity out of his mouth? That's gotta be bad for your teeth right? Hopefully he didn't have any retainers on.

- This show is the funniest cartoon ever. Sleigh. Sandman. Logic. HAHA!

- "Arms? Check. Legs? Check. Head? Check. Hey my burnt tongue's better too! Christmas miracle!" Follwed by:
(After a beetle falls from the sky next to Spidey)
Rhino: "A bug, for a bug!"
Sandman: "Yeah, I got that. For you that was clever!"
Rhino: "Thanks."

- After Spidey takes out Sandman, Rhino charges after him. Peter uses an oxygen tank to hit Rhino with and he taunts him to come after him. Rhino obliges jumping from the dock to the frozen river. The ice starts to crack. Rhino realizes what Spidey just made him do.

Rhino: "I hate you. So much." LOL

- The showrunners are great SPECTACULAR. The bit with the webshooters? Good eye.

- "Well you are the expert on premature gloatalation." Haha.

- "Oh fudge." I'm finding a lot of what he says today funny. That's a good thing. I think.

I so love this show.

Many Happy Returns

It's been too long.

The things we take for granted in life, when we just stop to think about what they mean to us...we remember how amazing, nay, spectacular they are.
