I figured we could use this thread. Or at least I can because I'm bored.

So, somebody give me something to ponder.

Where do superheroes get their costumes? It's not like they're all master tailors and you can't really get them special made without giving away your identity.

I know for a fact Spiderman does his own costumes because he often refers to the design and repairs he has to make.
Ironman and Batman are millionaires so thats easy.
But I just can't imagine Daredevil making his... ;)

Why?

How do Bruce Banners pants stretch that much and how does he afford clothes?

He wears xxxl size pants underneath his clothes, so its not that they stretch, he just wears hulk sized underwear.

How he affords clothes though is a good point

They could have explained it away a long time ago by having Mr. Fantastic make him some pants out of the stretchy material he uses.

I have been having a time with this one:

Is your overall musical preference chosen to put you in a mood or do you listen to music to suit your mood?

Then try to figure out what part of your brain is processing the music you are listening to, and then what part is figuring out the question.



Yes, I know, lay off the drugs.

Definitely to suit my mood, not change it. In my case anyway.

I find it works both ways. Can change my mood or can represent it.

Had a really good pipe band practice tonight. Sweat dripping off me (ooh-er) and was just wide awake walking up from the train station so had some In Flames blasting out! :D

It was no Red Dwarf but it was better than most of the crap out there. I wouldn't call Nick Frost worthless in it.

Miguel Sanchez

I could never get into it.
I've never really seen anything with Nick Frost alone that's excited me. While we're on the subject of Pegg & Frost, does anybody else think that Pegg and Schwimmer working together is a bad idea?

Something to ponder...

How do CGI companies like ILM create their quotes for respective productions?

Do they go through a script/story board sequence and say, 'a 10 second shot of a CGI twister, thats £10,000'... 'Ooo, a CGI dragon..dragons are £40,000...'

How do they create their prices?

Aaron
08-11-2008, 12:22 PM
I'm assuming it's a time thing.
Like there's a rental price for all the equipment needed to make the thing and however many days/weeks it takes to finish it to the standard you want.
Hence why cheap stuff looks shit.

Ok, in Batman Forever, how come Kilmer has to shoot down that Running Man-type tunnel at super speed for aaaages to get to the cave, yet O'Donnell just falls down a short flight of stairs?

I feel this, being a slow night, is still a valid ponder. :D

Bruce was at his office in Wayne Tower. Dick was in Wayne Manor, right above the Batcave.

I don't remember that.





Perhaps the UK cut is different.





Yes, that's my excuse. :p
