Comic Book Villians
Tuesday, 13 January 2004
A long time ago I saw this trailer for a movie that looked really good. I don't remember where I saw the trailer, but I do remember seeing it, and it was good. Anyway, I am at the video store and my brother picks up the movie and says, remember this, we should get it. So we do. I know, you are probably thinking this is a bad story, oh well. Anyway, we end up watching the movie and it was really good. It is about this guy who has been collecting comic books for a really long time, but he dies. Two rival comic book stores hear about this and try to buy the collection from the guys mom. It turns out to be like the Holy Grail of comic books. The mom doesn't want to sell. Both stores try numerous things to gain the right to get the comics. Eventually it gets out of hand with kidnapping, stealing and murder. All in all a good movie. Kind of along the lines of A Simple Plan and Very Bad Things, but has to deal with comic books, which is a plus. I highly recommend it if you are into comic books. An awesome look at obsession with collecting. That's it for now, until next time... Eat a Waffle.
