Top 10 Best Superhero/villain Redesigns Darths & Droids Dark Horse Comics Every Human in Star Wars is Really a Humanoid Bee There are no humans in Star Wars. This should be obvious from the title card. We’re a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away. Human beings evolved on this planet, Sol 3, over the last sixty million years or so depending on how you count. If we don’t want to go all “Chariots of the Gods?” we have to throw out the notion that the people represented by human actors in Star Wars movies are in fact human. Why represent them as human? While convenient, this approach does present one problem: watching the Original Trilogy, we assume that the ‘humans’ of the GFFA (Galaxy Far Far Away) are biologically and sociologically identical to Sol 3 humans. Gender is the most important clue. Family is a second important clue—or, rather, the absence of family. So we’re looking for an organism with large brood sizes, young ages of maturity, short gestation periods, and relatively few fertile females who naturally assume positions of social and organizational authority.

Top 10 WORST Superhero/villain Redesigns Being a Geek Home - Magic Workstation, Cards Management and Decks Testing for CCG Players, Online Play The awesome Harry Potter ending J.K. Rowling didn't even know she had I am someone who began reading this series during the third grade. I grew up around the series. I love the Harry Potter series with my whole heart and I truly believe that the novels are wonderful works of literature for children and adults to enjoy. I don't believe that the purposed ending is too dark or complicated for children. I think that, at a basic level, children would understand the story and appreciate it. I believe that she HOPED those children would love the books enough to re-read them as I have over the years. What is my point? I think that when we are children, we read as children. HOWEVER, I do feel that as the audience got older, we began to understand more about the novels. Basically, I feel that it is important to have this kind of growing up and reading a series process. As for the idea that children should grow up and leave behind the fascinations of youth... To an extent, I agree. This VERY conversation has shown that we are able to do this. I find this funny.
5 Essential Superhero Redesigns! I fucking love science Wii U The Wii U is the first Nintendo console to support high-definition graphics. The Wii U's primary controller is the Wii U GamePad, which features an embedded touchscreen. Each software title may be designed to utilize this touchscreen as being supplemental to the main TV, or as the only screen for Off-TV Play. History Development The console was first conceived in 2008,[16] after Nintendo recognized several limitations and challenges with the Wii, such as the general public perception that the system catered primarily for a "casual" audience.[17] With Wii U, Nintendo explicitly wishes to bring "core" gamers back.[18] Game designer Shigeru Miyamoto admitted that the lack of HD and limited network infrastructure for Wii also contributed to the system being regarded in a separate class to its competitors' systems, the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.[19] It was decided that a new console would have to be made to accommodate significant structural changes.

Fanlore 6 Comic Con-troversies With the New York Comic Con under way, we thought we’d remind you that these brilliant, geeky get-togethers can mean more than just costumes and coveted signatures on first-edition books. Here are a few of the scandals that rocked (or gently nudged) Comic Cons across the country this past year. God Hates Geeks in Superhero Costumes? At the massive Comic Con in San Diego last year, assembled geeks gave Fred Phelps’ hate-mongering Westboro Baptist Church a run for its money. When church members—who’ve earned the dubious distinction of being so radical that even the Ku Klux Klan has disavowed any association with them—showed up to protest alleged immorality and rampant homosexuality amidst convention-goers, they were greeted by a throng of nerds dressed as superheroes, robots, Trekkies and anime girls staging a counter protest.

Nintendo DS Prior to its release, the Nintendo DS was marketed as a "third pillar" in Nintendo's console lineup, meant to complement the Game Boy Advance and GameCube. However, backward compatibility with Game Boy Advance titles and strong sales ultimately established the new handheld console as the successor to the Game Boy series. On March 2, 2006, Nintendo launched the Nintendo DS Lite, a slimmer and lighter redesign of the original Nintendo DS with brighter screens. On November 1, 2008, Nintendo released the Nintendo DSi, another redesign with several hardware improvements and new features.
