Maybe the director can kill this thread too. That's it exactly, Ibby. Superman has to be a little bit cocky. He's Superman, for cryin' out loud. Cavill had it down. Newton, who was not the best actor, did cocky well. Dean Cain had his moments. Tom Welling was there occasionally, but there was too much WB/CW angst in that show. Chris Reeve was awesome, but his portrayal was just a little too self-effacing. Just a little bit, I agree Rocky. it's a very nice mix between cockiness, self-confidence and humility because of his Smallville roots. One reason I didn't like Smallville was because of all the angst. It just seemed like the bad parts of life greatly outweighed the good. Sadly, like a lot of other shows out there.

You know what just might kill this thread? Putting all this fine Man of Steel commentary in the Man of Steel thread instead.  I just know I'm going to want to check back and see "what was the brilliant comment Rocky made?" and won't find it because it's not actually under the subject. But then I suspect this is a long-standing Legion World tradition.

"Kill This Thread" usually drifts into all sorts of crazy directions. That's the fun of it.

I always thought the word "wanton" sounded like "wonton". Why would you want to kill a wonton?

No Rocky, I'm afraid it's the wonton that kills you.

The Attack of the Killer Wontons. That may be an upcoming LMB story.

It's probably not the first time we've had a problem with sentient food.

Well we do have members who are sentient walls and whatnot. Food seems less of a stretch. Perhaps at the academy I missed the part of LMB history with villainous food?

One of my favorite moments of the show was when George gives birth. It was odd, but very sweet.

I'm only passingly familiar with "Alien Nation" in its various forms, but that sounds vaguely reminiscent of "Enemy Mine" (of which I'm also only passingly familiar  ).

Sadly, my knowledge of similar shows/films is limited to Men in Black, Star Trek and Star Wars.

I've never warmed to Star Wars. I don't know why. Star Trek, on the other hand is one of my very favorites.

Could it be because Star Wars originally started out as a finite series with a defined end? Or perhaps Star Trek is more "technological" and explores the new worlds and technology more?

I think it was because all the kids in my second and then third grade class were always going on and on about the original movie when it came out. It made me not want to see it. When I finally did, it was like "Oh. This is okay."
