He was exposed to radiation in some way that changed his "composition" He can be as large or small as he chooses, can be material or not. He became almost like a god, but one who doesn't actually give a crap about creation. This is not your regular superhero story. The good guys aren't always good and the bad guys aren't always bad. I just hope the filmmakers don't mess too much with the story.

sounds intense, trailer is awsome -- cant wait for the movi, i believe its coming out in Imax 2

The closest IMAX theatre to me is about 2 hours away...It sucks.

Guys read this graphic novel. It is phenomenal. I can't wait for this movie. I just hope it is half as good as the comic.
PS Philip K. **** wrote those scifi books.
Favorite Movie = Children of Men

Comedy: Three amigos
action: Iron man
best overall: Braveheart
sci-fi: The last starfighter

i forgot to mention the writer i knew it was **** ive not long read frolix 8
i love the three amigos dont make them like that anymore
just downloaded innerspace (why isnt martin short in new movies?)
i like braveheart but hate the fact its untrue

Because there is no room for comedians anymore unless they are profane, loud, or obnoxious. Unless its Steve Carell or Will Ferrell.

I can't believe some people have listed action films and not listed my two "naughty favourites":
Luc Besson's Taxi, and Roadhouse.
Watching Taxi is great, watching it while thinking "how did they film that?" is even more amazing. Roadhouse, well who hasn't wanted to be either of the coolers in it?!?
As for Watchmen, will definitely be dragging the wife to it!

or even steve martin
id forgive him for cheaper by the dozen and pink panther if hed release something as good as dirty rotten scoundrels

HTC HD Pro Concept by Jukah

Soooooooooooooo Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiice, hope it'll became true

Now that is SEXY! Makes my HD2 look down right boring, love the lines which flow so perfectly down..............oops I forgot I was describing a phone, you definitely made a stunning concept! Well done.................................cheers.

Thanks! I might make another concept for a 3.7" device depending on the reception of this one.

Respect! Your Photoshop skills are amazing, far beyond my possibilities.
Edit: I truly didn't see your last post, so do not think I said that with sympathy. My render also didn't get much attention, so don't be dissapointed.
Edit 2: Being featured on the XDA portal soon.

Not only is this beautiful and elegant -- but the reason I am QUOTING is because I *did* go visit your page to read about your thoughts as well as see the comments written THERE too.
This comment both cracked me up and was sheer brilliance... But if you don't know the reference it would fly right over a person's head and be totally wasted. SO, just to help make the point really CLEAR, i will translate it afterwards. The comment itself is EPIC:
Jukah I feel like Bugsy at the opening of the Flamingo.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
To really appreciate what the commenter is saying here, you have to know this is Bugsy Malone he is referring to -- a gangster in the USA, who saw an empty place in the desert land in Nevada (a state in the USA not too far from California) and envisioned on this empty barren land, with no highways around, no cities around, no nothing -- he envisioned a city in the middle of this desert -- which would be a place where military people and others could come to get inexpensive enterainment....
Everyone thought he was NUTS! Who the hell wants to come to this sh*thole in the desert, Bugsy? he said "you'll see after I've built my first casino here"... and he drew up plans with architects for "The Flamingo" -- an iconic marker now for the original LAS VEGAS, the city, the gambling, the culture, the entire state of mind that he created --- casting his gaze out across the barren landscape of the desert.
The photo above is from when the Flamingo first opened... proving all the doubters wrong.
And now, just for further context... A reminder that once things are indeed built, bigger is not always better, iPadius Jobius.
Las Vegas strip, today.

Awesome design!Realy like it.I'm not a fan of the fisical keyboard but device looking like this I'd gladly use

Even better, here's the scene, in the film BUGSY, directed by the great Barry Levinson, Bugsy played by Warren Beatty, film nominated for 10 Academy Awards.
Fast Forward if you like to 3:09 to jump to the heart of the scene in the desert:

Have you taken to drinkin or something?

I'm assuming you have seen the Ong Bak and similar Tony Jaa films?
How about some Samurai films? The Twilight Samurai? Zatoichi?
Are you interested in good films with just one fight, or films where the fights scenes are the reason for the film (ie several fights)?
Good stories and acting? Or just fight scenes?

let me think..... karate kid with Jackie chan in it?
thats the most recent one i can think of...
good luck

The best Martial arts movie I have seen. Ip Man is Bruce Lee's Teacher, by the way.

Best stoner movie ever?

IMO I think it's gotta be Friday.
Plus this is way too funny:
"Weed is from the earth. God put this here for me and you. Take advantage man, take advantage. "

Cheech & Chong - Things Are Tough All Over.
"People say it was the drugs that killed Elvis man. But it wasn't the drugs, it's looking for them. Keeps you up all night!"

Half Baked is the quintessential stoner movie. Pineapple Express gets an honorable mention. Both are hilarious.

- Grandma’s Boy
- Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle
- Harold and Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay
- Cheech and Chong Up in smoke
- Dazed and Confused

Indeed, How High is absolutely a must watch. Can't believe I forgot that one. Or, maybe I can believe it. Damn weed smoke.
Enviado desde mi PC36100 utilizando XDA Premium de la aplicación

I would have to agree with how high because it reminds of a very stupid story that did involve me being stoned.
I had just got my very first dvd player had never used or watched a dvd before this one. I borrowed How High from one of my buddys after a night of heavy smoking. I got home and put the film on, now some how without realising I had put on directors comentery, a feature I did not know existed. I proceded to watch the entire film feeling very dazed and confused about what was happening.
[sig]My mission is to hit 1000 posts by 23/05/2011[sig]

That's awesome, dude.
That movie is a got dayum riot. One of the best.

Agreed. All the movies mentioned are good, but none can top Half Baked. I've seen that movie more times than is probably healthy.

A great channel.

Warthog She's a thriller, she's a killer...
These warbirds can fly so slow they look like they should stall*. Unlike when they land, when they do a gun run their turbines are not near idle; it's a powered descent. They make a very peculiar noise when they do this; you know death is coming before you hear the gatling canon. Watch two practicing gun run demonstrations for an airshow. They could do a gun run, turn and be back on target within about 30 seconds. They can turn extremely tight and fast.
Up 1.5 inches of titanium armor can suck up a lot of abuse. The whole airframe is harden and very strong. Can lose huge chunks of flight surfaces and still fly.
Lots of wing hard mounting points and a high payload capacity plus their main canon means they can really pack a punch. Incredible warbirds... in a class all by themselves.
*did a slow and very low flyby over the tower with their flaps down before spooling up and streaking off. They were fun.
