If you watch "The Bank Job" with Spanish subtitles, you'd be reading my work... ;)

Sweet!
I know it's work, but what did you think of the movie?

Oh, I loved it! I'm a huge Jason Statham fan, so I was happy to work on whatever featured him, but it was a really nice movie...

Can we let a mention of Freakazoid go by without calling attention to the Creeper episode of Batman TAS?

Evidently not!

Hey, whaddayawant? It's just a cursory glance at DVDs I watch!
They're not full reviews.
Yes, The Creeper was closer to the original concept of the Freakazoid character.
Also, Bruce Timm did the original character designs but couldn't bring the kind of funny that Steven Spielberg wanted, apparently, so Tom Ruegger was brought in as producer.
It's all there in the 17-minute featurette on the DVD.
Rent it/buy it now!

I really loved the Call of Cthulhu movie. I think framing it in the context of an old silent film was brilliant - it doesn't just fit the period when this was written, but it also means you go in without expecting modern special effects and elaborate sets, so what they provide seems natural and easy to accept.

I concur!
George Méliès would be proud.
