Well... Johnny was Sue's younger brother; when the comic first started, he was still in high school... Peter Parker's age, in fact. Reed and Ben are supposed to be roughly the same age, but Sue was younger than them.

I don't know what the "current continuity" is, but originally (in 1961) Reed and Ben were both college grads, as well as being veterans of WWII... so when the series started they were supposed to be in their early-to-mid 40s, I would say.

Oh, I just had a thought... it's going to be playing at the Alamo Drafthouse here in Austin. I wonder what kind of event they'll stage for opening night?

Maybe I should bring the camera...

I'm sure I will go see it. I did like the X-Men films.

I can't play this game. I didn't enjoy the book (I may read it again before the movie).

That's all I've got...

I am thinking to see if I can round up some geek-type friends to go opening night, towels and all.

You in, Rosie?

I just hope it will be as good as X-Men... I'm afraid it will be more like Daredevil or The Hulk: tolerable because it's faithful to the comic, but not really that good of a movie. Will have to wait and see...

Yeah, but we know Amidala dies before we meet Luke in the next (original movie) episode. But she's gotta live long enough to birth Luke and Leia.

Jar Jar's our only hope for a ~meaningful~ death.

I think this is the big test we've been praying about.

Ah... what about Rosie's interview? Is that over? Or is she in it?

This ~could~ be a good movie year.

We get the new Star Wars (okay, maybe not). But also the new "Harry Potter" and the Narnia movie. Plus "Kingdom of Heaven" and the new Batman movie.

I saw trailers for that Kingdom of Heaven.

I think for Orlando Bloom, taking riding and swordfighting lessons for LoTR has made him as much money as acting school has ;~D

I'm basically rewriting the HH knife story on the blog, based on all the history we now have. The stuff posted here was "realtime". Now I can look back, and see where the project has been "pushed" in certain directions that weren't apparent when I first wrote of the stuff here.
