Great stuff Ed!

As I live in the UK, I'm gonna have to wait until tomorrow when someone puts this online to watch it! I find it a little hard to get excited after years of Smallville let-downs and disappointments but this does look pretty great!

Guys, check out my STARJAMMERS Fan Cast under "Fan Fic"!!! :)

LEEE777 - 2/5/2010, 11:54 AM

JOSH @ You hav'nt been watching it for years lmao, you bought the box sets! : P

But ya right man, gonna be killer!

LEE: I bought the first 5 seasons on DVD - the rest I've watched on TV/online! :P

He doesn't sound overly enthused with the final product. He talks about the dorkiness of eight guys sitting around in costumes. That is a interesting arguement. In X-men, everyone wants Wolverine in costume, but alot of the time most of the other X-men had a similar themed suit or uniform, so it wasn't out of left field, and his suit would kinda look weird. I prefer when he is in street clothes. The Smallville costumes, especially Hawkman who sounds like he knows it, look pretty Highschool drama club. I hope the eighth grader who made his wings won the science fair, and then tried them out himself off a cliff. Don't get me wrong, I hope they work, I do! Survival of the fittest!!!

P.S. I'm really getting sick of being told I was bitten by the beast. Seriously, it's making me not want to see the movie. I still haven't seen 9.

JOSH @ Oh lol, hey welcome back CAPTAIN BRITAIN!!! : p
