I've been into comics my whole life! Used to buy Marvel regularly, until their story arcs got so utterly comfusing and intertwined that I moved onto manga and DC stuff. Below are the comics I now enjoy reading regularly and the ones I still enjoy from collecting over the years.

Battle Angel
by VIZ![]()
Gally, a cyborg killing machine, must find her origins and her memories and if possible her humanity.

Superheroes watch the world, but who watches them? An excellent look at how the world would be if they truly walked among us.

Ranma 1/2

JLA (Grant Morrison)
by DC Comics![]()
From the creative mind of Grant Morrison, the world's greatest superheroes challenge odds beyond your wildest imaginations.
Granted, I like a LOT of movies. So I won't bore you with a million of them, just eight of my favorites ^_^.
The Shawshank Redemption ![]()
My favorite movie of all time. A man wrongfully accused of murder must find hope in a lifetime of prison.
The Godfather trilogy
![]()
The dramatic tale of a crime family stretched over the course of that family's life.
Princess Mononoke
![]()
A beautifully animated movie set in a time when the spirits of the past must confront the progress of mankind.
The Original Star Wars trilogy ![]()
The greatest science fiction series ever told. Nuff said.
(note : this does NOT include episode One =P)Tom Hanks movies
![]()
From Philidelphia to Forrest Gump, to Apollo 13 and Saving Private Ryan and The Green Mile, the movies of Tom Hanks are all worth watching many times over.
Starship Troopers
![]()
A sci-fi action marvel, join the Roughnecks as they defend our planet's freedoms from insect invaders in good-old World War II newsreel style!
Braveheart
![]()
Truly a grand epic, it is the poignant story of William Wallace as he leads the people of Scotland to their freedom against the British.
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade ![]()
Fun and an adventurous thrill ride, watching Indiana Jones and his dad outwit Nazis and uncover the Holy Grail is the perfect Father's Day viewing!
Ah, a total addiction for me! My main favorites are long storyarc-style RPGs, though the odd fighting game still gives me a rush.
The Resident Evil series ![]()
Yes, a 3rd-person adventure series so utterly scary I honstly have trouble playing it at night =P (and I love it)!. Follows the Stars SWAT team and their struggles against the living dead (and worse).
The Street Fighter series ![]()
Always a classic with me : who is the world's strongest fighter?!
Soul Calibur ![]()
Probably my favorite 3D fighter, medieval one-on-one at its best! Flawless animations and so much bonus material that the game is just as valuable after you've beaten everything possible!
EverQuest ![]()
More addicting than cocaine, it's the world best and most well-developed 24-hour continuous massively multiplayer online RPG (and I'm not just baised because I've worked for them ^_^)!
Mario 64 ![]()
Even after all this time, the adventures of an Italian plumber trying to save a mushroom princess from a fat dragon are still one of the most fun games to play!
Planescape : Torment ![]()
I love this one mainly because it is an absolutely unparalleled representation of the AD&D Planescape RPG campaigns, a lot of fun with some utterly beautiful artwork.
The Final Fantasy series ![]()
It's hard to get more epic than the incredible Final Fantasy series, each story different from the last except for one recurring theme : you must stop the end of the world.
StarCraft : Brood War ![]()
One of the best strategy games out there, StarCraft : Brood War is an amazing game of tactics and strategy utilizing three different races and more technology than you can throw a stick at.
A number of years ago this list would have been a LOT longer. But I don't really watch as much TV as I used to (must be old age ^_^) so here's just my tried and true favorites.
Mystery Science Theater 3000 ![]()
The funniest TV series I've ever known, marvel as one one guy in a jumpsuit and his robot companions rip on every bad movie you can imagine!
Star Trek : Deep Space Nine ![]()
My favorite out of the Star Trek dynasty, this installment of the series pits a lone space station and the Federation in a war against the Dominion.
Quantum Leap ![]()
Sam Beckett leaps from life to life through time, striving to put right what once went wrong. A very original and heartfelt series.
Law and Order ![]()
My favorite courtroom-style drama series, this show is a long-running favorite of mine on A&E.
Babylon 5 ![]()
One of the best original sci-fi series on television, it like DS9 pits a central space station as the main fortress in a war against universal forces of evil.
