The Not-So-Happening!

M. Night Shyamalan's new movie, The Happening, is getting blasted by the critics. No surprise there.  I don't think they ever forgave him for the 'don't spoil the ending' Sixth Sense.

Myself - I'm too scared to see it - I got chills just watching the trailer before Iron Man. 

The word of mouth I've heard has been pretty good.  Perhaps the disconnect is that the movie is not as downright scary or gory as some people, and certainly, some critics expected.  From what I've heard, it's more tense and builds to a scary scene or two.

So if you're looking to get the crap scared out of you - forget The Happening and check out these classic Horror comics. When Michael and I are on buying outings, I'm in charge of quality control.  So, I have to study the covers looking for any defects.  Let me tell you, I always get a little freaked out staring at these covers.  I just know I'm going to have nightmares!

If you're looking for a nightmare, we've got the makings right here!  (Click Here For HoRRoR Comics!)

Remember, we'll ship as many of these (raw, unslabbed) comic books to you (U.S. addresses only) for only $4.99.

It Opens Today!

Just a friendly reminder! Especially if you've already seen 'Iron Man', Indiana Jones and...Skull', and the 'Incredible Hulk', you'll need a quieter movie!

Tina's post follows:

After the debacle of Evan Almighty, Steve Carell looks like he's hitting in his sweet spot as Maxwell Smart in Get Smart.

If you're a fan of The Office, you know that no comedic actor is more dead-on at deadpan delivery than Steve Carell.  He routinely has audiences delightedly yelling "Oh no!" at their tv screens.  Yes, the writing is what makes The Office great, but without Carrell's relentless delivery, the show would not work.  There hasn't been such a "cringe-worthy" character on the small screen since Seinfeld's George Costanza.

Let's just hope that the Get Smart writers give Carell what he needs - we know he can deliver.  If the trailers are any indication, Get Smart which opens nationwide on June 20 is going to be a fun trip back to yesteryear.

If you're a Steve Carell fan and haven't seen Dan in Real Life, I encourage you to check it out.  He really stretches his acting, and not just comedic, chops in this bittersweet romantic comedy with Juliette Binoche.  The story is hysterically funny, adult, and touching. (Yes, Michael cried.)

I have to admit that I haven't watched Saturday Morning Cartoons for quite a while.

I have caught several episodes of recent or upcoming cartoons on 'Cartoon Network' with my youngest son, and do view some at the Comic Cons that we attend when Tina and I need to sit and rest.

Having seen cartoons off and on since the mid 1950's I am aware of most of the above list, but some just threw me trying to figure where they fit in...

BTW, Angelica 'Charlotte' Pickles is an animated character voiced by Cheryl Chase in the Nickelodeon Shows of 'Rugrats' and 'All Grown Up'... She was one of the original cast members and of course related to 'Dill Pickles' and 'Tommy Pickles'. Sh's also a 'spoiled brat'. Sheesh! 

We have an ongoing Cartoon Show, Comic Con and Pop Culture convention here ourselves at Make It So Marketing, what with our daily blog posts and listings of items for sale!

Thanks for reading today's post and please join us again for more in the future!
