With all the live action comicbook movies being produced lately, it seems a character can only be considered a superhero if they came from a comicbook from one of the big Comicbook companies, or independent companies, or manga. Well, this list serves as a reminder that there are other sources from which a superhero can arise. Like: movies, TV shows, tv cartoon shows not based on comicbook characters, Comicstrips (remember those?), old radio shows, old movie matinee serials, pulp fiction, and novels. Well, which one of these who made it into a live action movie, should be considered a superhero? To nominate another or to discuss the topic, click here. If you are nominating another, just remember to mention what the original source was. Sorry “Ben 10”, but nobody has done a live action movie of you yet.

When supporting characters are not that 'supporting' ... when the leads lead a selfish crusade in the name of greed, cruelty or a wicked vision of power ... or when the darkest sides of the human soul inspire powerful and unforgettable perforamances allowing the villain to have a final revenge... and take the Oscar home. Which of these oscar-winning performances as a real-life or fictional villain is your favorite? After voting, you may discuss the list here (PS: Vito Corleone isn't included not because he's a good guy but to call him a 'villain' in the film's narrative would make no sense, his son Michael was a villain in the second opus, although a tragic one)

Excellent prose sometimes seems to be a dying art. The film industry, at times, does its part to revive it with great screen plays or scripts based on great novels. Great screen plays and great novels have something in common: they tend to be written by great writers, like Harper Lee, Spike Lee, and Quentin Tarantino. Great writers are imaginative enough that often their creativity is also displayed in details, such as the titles of the films and/or names of the characters, sometimes ignored by other writers. Below are some great character names that are wonderfully original or ironic, yet don't betray the character with unnecessary showiness or unfitting silliness. Instead of asking you for your favorite character, we ask: which name do you think best suits the particular character and helps to brings that person to life? After voting, feel free to discuss here. Note: All characters are listed in alphabetical order.

Without dropping any names, many celebrities come to mind when we think of accusations, scandals, controversies, creepy revelations (especially sexual abuses) or tragic incidents that have caused someone's downfall, destroying an image or "at least" soiling a significant portion of legacy. But we don't all have the same reactions and it is a very difficult question when it comes to someone we used to admire. Will we still 'enjoy' his work? Is boycott the only ethical answer? In other words, should we separate the Art from the Artist? (this question applies to the situation where the artist is proven guilty, admits his faults and/or makes amends, since it's the "fans" we're asking, many are eager to give the benefit of the doubt until a definite answer is given) After voting, you may discuss the list here
