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

i have it in my ps3

I'll probably see this movie when it comes out as well. Anyhow, as for now, I think Taken is a must. Saw it yesterday on my Tilt and it's one of the best movies i've seen of late.

Cool movie, bro

I've been getting my money's worth out of my netflix account lately and I've come across some very obscure but pretty good/interesting movies and I thought there might be one or two other people here who enjoy good movies
Share em if you got em but please no blockbusters, they get enough attention.
Interesting and Unique Movies:
INK
Visioneers
Revolution OS
Gabriel
Serenity
Right At Your Door
Deadline
Food INC
*edit- Part of the OP is obviously easy to overlook, please let me reiterate:
Please no blockbusters, they get enough attention.
The goal here is to expose some great obscure movies that most of us may not have heard of before.
Thanks

Entropy is my favorite movie.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0156515/
Also, Comedian was a great movie.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0328962/

Bladerunner. Best movie ever.

netflix movies
The box, and the skeleton key are both movies related to TV shows like twilight zone and tales from the crypt but with hotter women leads.
Loved Serenity but the marketing of it was not up to the movie itself. It should have been a blockbuster.

It's really a shame it wasn't. I was very pleasantly surprised by it.

I don't know if you've ever watched it OP, but try a movie like The Nines with Ryan Reynolds. Interesting and thought provoking.
Other good movies that I enjoyed....Moon with Sam Rockwell. Awesome one-man show.

Ink & The Nines is really good

I had no idea that firefly existed before I watched serenity, was a little confused!#
But after watching that, and then watching again, it made for very good entertainment. Definately would recommend it to most people.
(Random side note - I used to play a game called EVE, I thought there were a few, not loads, of similarities between the two.)
If you're into reading films, I enjoyed "La Haine" as well, but that is getting on a bit now.

Thanks for the input guys! I look forward to watching some new (to me) movies.

Pans Labyrinth and Leon are 2 amazing films, agreed.
Donnie Darko too, I guess most people here would have seen it though, but didn't think it would be classed as blockbuster.

OMG Time Bandits!!
You just brought back some very fond memories, excellent movie
Pan's Labyrinth was a treat too, great monsters in that one

Kung Pow! (Enter The Fist) Great comedy that did not do well on movie teathers

Calling All XDA DeviantART Users - Get Android Some Love!

Go take a look over at DA, under the categories. You won't find a single category for our dear little Andy. Nope, nada, not even a wallpaper section. Of course iPhone/iPod has had its own section, which you have to expect.
But just take a look here at XDA, and you will see a wealth of talented individuals making amazing designs for our little devices. So why no love for Android? Its not like it hasn't been suggested. I first put in the suggestion back last August, and again a few days ago.
There has even been others suggesting Android at least get a section in the wallpaper category. And i think this would at least be a good starting point. But with the wealth of customization options for Android, DA seems like the perfect place to post all your wallpapers, icons, docks, and themes. There needs to be a whole new slew of Android based categories on DA.
So head on over to the link below; it will take you to Moonbeam's forum for posting new category suggestions. If anything at least post a +1 to the comment I love (I'm 'hornsholdmyhalo'). Or post your own comment about what should be added, and why it should. Lets flood her with the Android love
TL;DR - No Android categories at DeviantART, Go to link, post there should be.

Yes sir, well Mesquite to be exact.

Ah, gotcha. I used to live kind of close to there. I moved by Tyler now though. I just rarely see anyone from Texas on here or on DF's so it was surprising haha.

Come on, I know there are more DA users out there in XDA land

Hello fellow Texan, born and raised in Gladewater, 28 miles north of tyler. Straight up 271.
I'll go by DA and make my mark.

Nice to see another one! This makes about a total of..I'd say around 4 haha.
Thanks.

I'm down. I'll upload some a wallpaper I made after school. It's effing blocked here.

I stumbled upon DA a while back looking for Gingerbread Icons (or the ability to make them) and I very much liked what I saw, but I couldn't help but notice there was basically ZERO Android-based artwork ... and of course, no GB icons !!!
There are very talented individuals @ Deviant Art and I couldn't believe there was NO Android material !

Wel, maybe there are no specific categories for Android, but defintely there is some Android-artwork over there...

Oh yea quite a bit of it, even a group or two. But as you can see, no categories.
Come on everyone!! Don't just talk the talk, post on her page!! Lets get her attention

Posted.
For our community to grow even more artists here on XDA should share their work on DeviantART. It'd be great.

Agreed, it would be great for them to go all out and give us all the categories we need!!
I just wonder what she is gonna say when she sees the sheer amount of support for android

Shes gonna throw out her Ipod/iphone and run to the [insert carrier name here] store screaming "forgive me for I have been so blind!!" lmao sorry went off a bit. Oh yeah anyone familiar with da, user otisbee is way on the android wagon and he is pretty prominent over there

Just posted the request. The whole Customization category is a wreck over there.... needs cleaned up and brought up to date badly.

We got 10 so far! Come on guys keep it coming!!

Drilling square holes - in metal

This is fantastic. This is the invention of a square-hole drill and machine. Completely different from the wooden square hole variety.

Now that would be a trick, threading a square screw into a square hole! I figure if we could find a way to do that, the universe will be able to make square planets. Then the world really would be flat lol

I'll tell you what...
..if you watch all the Wimp.com videos from beginning to end it will be a greater mind-altering/learning experience, than all the LSD on the planet +/- ten years ivy-league education!
I've learned more about about the human condition in 6 months of watching these videos than i have in 38 years of my real life. If you want to see what people are really capable of creating, instead of being drowned daily by what people are are capable of destroying, this is the answer for you!
If this planet is being ruined by 99% of the population, it's the 0.1% that you see in these videos that make the continuation of this species worthwhile!
To do a thread-type inception...were i to bring a person from history back from the dead?.. i would pick Leonardo De Vinci. In an era where dogmatic practices were holding the world back from immense discoveries, the few that dared to challenge the 'accepted' facts, Copernicus, for example, who 'dared' to suggest that the Earth wasn't the centre of the universe..only a part of it, these people, these innovators, led the world into an new era of understanding..these are the people who have driven the advancement of mankind.
In a thousand years from now, who will the future historians be thinking back on as the 'greats' of our time? The Physicians like 'Hawkins'? The artists like 'Dali'? Perhaps the visionaries like 'Asimov'?
Who know's who it'll be...but i'm willing to bet that the first ones for consideration will be the same people who are currently pushing the boundaries, doing the things that that we consider unimaginable, and yet are out there doing the impossible for the enjoyment and betterment of mankind!
I personally have a deep-seated hatred for the ignorance of mankind, but an overwhelming optimism that a select few can make a wealth of difference for the many!
/FridayNightPhilosophy!
EDIT: God only knows, as i sit here ,pissed, listening to great tunes..that out of 7 Billion souls currently on this planet, that my contribution to the planet as a whole is next to useless.
In a million years from now, the best that i can hope for is that my skeletal remains are part of the 0000.1% that may become part of the geological fossil record, that future generations can study and glean an ounce of information from. (Their deductions being that i came from an era where DNA destroying substances, and a penchant for warefare led to the extinction of an entire race...and that we were all obsessed by self-destructive paradigms that ended with us donating nothing more than a few genes to the generations to come, rather than being the fathers of a new and enlightened epoch of history.
Homo-Sapien? Pfft..
..in a million years from now we'll be nothing more that an another branch of the evolutionary tree that suddenly became a bookmark in history! The only hope as i see it is if people wake up to the fact that all we have is what we are now! We're living at at a turning point..and if we don't do the right things now, we'll be expunged from the record books, forever.

That's impressive!

More to the point, a square drill bit boggles my primitive Mind.

Good thinking, but ultimately it would be 'minus' for you in the end of day.....may be when one of them came to know that the other is your wife and another came to know that other is your GF

Honestly, just as long as she doesn't NAG.

attention, love and loyalty

Probably first of all,
being a fair and equal person,
seriously, cannot stand on girls that are selfish or mean...
Then comes the rest, such as a lovely face or decent boobs

I wished if my girlfriend could be a person that embraces equality, but seems like she isn't.
She would choose her favorite thing, instead of me. Let's say she loves her job but it is as risky as James Bond, but I don't allow her to do it, she would probably say 'let's break up cuz you don't let me do it'. Well the reality is a more selfish one, but meh.
Embracing equality is a must I think.

But what i mean by clever is a clever person who can figure out almost any situation, so she can solve most of the problem comes her way.
