Help me out please.
Did anyone talk about this yet????15th November 2001 at 8:56 pm #42874dgrequeenParticipantI’ve watched it. Yes, I have no life. Right now it’s got a LOT of rough spots, IMO, but if they give it a chance, it might iron them out. It’s fairly obvious most of the actors are relatively inexperienced (Forbes March comes particularly to mind). Unless they start developing the characters, though, they’re going to quickly run out of steam (there’s only so much you can do with mutant powers to hold the audience’s interest).

I’ve glimpsed a few seconds of the show while channel surfing. I don’t like super-hero stories. But I’ll check out the Wonder Woman movie if Sandra Bullock stars.
I used to be a big fan of the Hulk and Superman when I was a kid, but I grew out of it. Today I read comics like [i]Transmetropolitan[/i] or [i]Knights of the Dinner Table[/i].

It is licensed from Marvel, and loosely based on the [i]X-Men[/i] spin-off/parallel comic series of the same name. It is not, in concept, considered a spin-off of the [i]X-Men[/i] film, but it was put into development in order to cash in on its success. The film producers did try to sue, but as it’s based on a separate comic series, I think the suit was thrown out.
