How long does a Customized Dell desktop package take to ship?

I am going to disneyworld July 7th - July 15th. Could I order a Dell computer the day I arrive in disneyworld (on my dads laptop), and still be back home in Canada by the time it arrives? I read somewhere it takes about three weeks....BTW it's a Studio XPS 7100 with a 21.5" monitor.How long does a Customized Dell desktop package take to ship?I would go by whatever their site says, keep a lookout in your email because they will probably send you a notice that "Your item has been shipped!". 3 weeks sounds about rightHow long does a Customized Dell desktop package take to ship?You will have to sign for the delivery. A customized Dell usually takes 2 weeks +/- for building and shipping. So just figure 2 weeks from the order date.

    Will Dell replace my computer if it is under waranty and i spilled grape soda on it?

    i have a dell laptop that spilled grape soda on. Consequenty now it won't turn on. I have an extended waranty that is still effective. Will dell cover this?Will Dell replace my computer if it is under waranty and i spilled grape soda on it?Only if you got the accidental coverage on your waranty which you usually have to pay extra for.Will Dell replace my computer if it is under waranty and i spilled grape soda on it?
    It didn't fail because it was faulty so I would say no.Will Dell replace my computer if it is under waranty and i spilled grape soda on it?Do u think everybody out dere is SUCH AN *** like u.
    warranty doesn't covered your mistakes. it only covers manufactory defect of the product both for hard drives, systems, and the like. but not for your mishandling of your computer! they can fix it with charge.Will Dell replace my computer if it is under waranty and i spilled grape soda on it?I had a similar problem with a Dell and the warranty--you will have to pay for repair, as this isn't considered normal use, but rather "abuse" of your computer. You will likely need a new motherboard, and likely a new keyboard, and a disk-drive depending. This is quite expensive. I'd recommend keeping food and drink away from your computer. It's a hard-learned personal experience!Will Dell replace my computer if it is under waranty and i spilled grape soda on it?
    Depends. If you have some sort of insurance that you bought from them, that covers stupid mishaps like that, then maybe you'll get a new one.



    If you are talking about regular warranty, I would say no. It was not designed for people to spill their sodas into, so it's not really their fault.
    It doesn't hurt to ask. Your warranty is to protect against any kind of problems that happen to a computer. You won't know until you ask. If you haven't read your warranty, you should do so. Go for it.Will Dell replace my computer if it is under waranty and i spilled grape soda on it?
    Liquid damage is not covered under the warranty or insurance by any computer company. You will be charged for the repair, keyboard needs to be cleaned. Check with Best Buy first. Dell will rip you off. Best thing to do is get a MacBook. Here's why you should get a Mac:: There are NO CONS. The MacBook does both WinBloze and OSX, no other computer can make that statement. You have the best of the best. Apple Stores are popping up all over and you can make an appointment for a time and date, bring your computer there. They will troubleshoot it and fix it if it's a software problem it's FREE. What other computer company has stores and can make that statement? Get the 2.4 GHz with 4Gigs Ram and you got a speed machine like mine. The WinBloze people may not like a Mac computer but I'll bet they all have iPods. Go Mac and Never Go Back.

    If you read the questions here you will notice that most problems are about every computer except a Mac.

    How much memory can a Dell Precision 380 workstation recognize?

    I would like to upgrade the memory on my Dell Precision 380 workstation. It now has 2 gig but can hold as much as 8 gig. Is it worth buying up to 8 gig? I heard it's wasted because it won't recognize a full 8 gig? Is this true? If so, how much will it recognize?How much memory can a Dell Precision 380 workstation recognize?first you can run a 64 bit OS, your processor supports 64 bit instructions. If you want to go to 8 gigs then you need to run a 64 bit OS in order for it use all the available ram.



    This is how it works. 32 bit OS has a limit of 4 gigs of ram. That's is because 2^32 is roughly 4 billion. that's where that number comes from

    a 64 bit OS has a limit of 16 gig or 2^64, which is roughly 16 billion something.



    A 32 bit OS only gives you 4 gigs of memory registers. Remember that all ram gets calculated into that number, system ram, video ram, soundcard memory, raid card, swap space, etc..

    So you might have a 2 gigs of system ram, but you also have 256 on your video card. (going with the factory spec vid card). so you really have 2.25 gig of ram plus whatever you have for swap space. (virtual ram).





    My recommend is this, if you are using the workstation for any kind of engineering, database, or 3d content program. Increase the amount of ram that you can afford, any of those programs typically scale very well to increase in ram.

    Once you install the ram, you will need to reinstall your OS for a 64 bit one. You have to do a complete reinstall, there is no way to upgrade a 32 bit install to a 64 bit one.

    I'd recommend windows XP 64bit, over vista. It's much quicker, and stable.How much memory can a Dell Precision 380 workstation recognize?Actually, using 64-bit register means you can have 17.2 billion gigabytes of RAM.



    2^64 = 18446744073709551616



    That's a whole lot of ram.

    Is it okay to download intel graphics drivers on a dell machine?

    Intel has newer drivers for my intel graphics card than dell, and I am curious to know if anyone has tried this and experienced difficulty.



    On the Intel site, they say that I "may experience problems" from their drivers, given that dell makes their own drivers for my graphics card. I own a dell inspiron 1420, with an Intel GM965 and I am running VISTA home premium with service pack 2, direct X 11.Is it okay to download intel graphics drivers on a dell machine?No harm in trying, if it doesn work roll it back. In my experience when trying this if Intels driver is not going to work with your system, its going to tell you that when you try installing it and wont let you proceed. Some of the manufacturer drivers for various components will look at your motherboard and if they see its OEM Dell they will prevent the install. If you arent facing an issue and are just looking to run the latest driver, I might suggest sticking with Dells.

    How do I connect a Dell 1525 laptop to my TV, so that I can watch movies on the tv?

    I have a Dell Inspiron 1525. I wanted to connect it to the TV, so that I could watch movies on the TV. How do I connect it, and what parts do I need? Is there a risk of me blowing the tv or the laptop with this sort of connection? If so, Id rather not connect it.How do I connect a Dell 1525 laptop to my TV, so that I can watch movies on the tv?I have a Dell Inspiron 1525 also and I hook it up to my TV all the time to watch movies.



    The best way is through the HDMI port on the left side, which requires a moderately expensive HDMI cable if you don't already have one. Once both ends are connected, Windows automatically adds the TV as a display and sound device without you having to adjust any settings at all.



    The first time you connect it will ask you how you want to use the TV in conjunction with the internal laptop display. I use Extended Desktop, so I can drag a movie to the TV and watch it full-screen while still using the computer to do other things.



    If you don't have an HDMI connection it is still possible to set it up manually using the S-Video port on the right side and the headphone port on the front. However you will get poorer picture and sound quality and you will have to do more work to get it up and running.

  • How do you reboot a DELL Windows XP computer?

    My computer is 3 years old and its VERY slow and annoying, so I want to reboot it. Its a DELL dimension E310, and I think I have the CD's for it. Which is better? Rebooting from the CD or pressing F8 when turning on the computer and bringing up the computer repairs screen? Is there a difference? Should I have a professional do it? Or can I do it by myself? Thanks.How do you reboot a DELL Windows XP computer?What you really mean is that you want to refresh your computer to have it working like new. You should follow the advice in this article to get it working as fast as it can http://www.ask-the-computer-doc.com/boos鈥?/a>



    If you want to do an XP repair, in general you want to do a repair install and NOT use the repair console.



    Detailed instructions for a repair install are here http://michaelstevenstech.com/XPrepairin鈥?/a> He also describes how to create an XP disk with the service pack included easily.



    If you can no longer do a repair install or find it too complicated, DO NOT reformat and reinstall as this will wipe you out and leave you with nothing but the operating system. You would have to reinstall all your programs and much of your data would be inaccessible.



    Reimage can repair your system even if a repair install fails. It costs a little but it is well worth it to save your data. It takes about 30 minutes and preserves your programs and data. If you are not happy with the results, you don't have to pay and you can reverse any changes that it made. More information here http://www.askthecomputerdoc.com/blog/ca鈥?/a>How do you reboot a DELL Windows XP computer?
    Thank you guys so much for your detailed answers! and yes, I meant reinstall/restore (to factory settings) not reboot.

    How do you reboot a DELL Windows XP computer?I found you the guidebook for your PC. The link I am providing will ask you to download a .pdf as soon as you click it. When you open the .pdf go to page 11 there are specific windows re-installation steps for a Dell PC with a Dell recovery disk. I have had to use the recovery disk on my dimension 8300 a few times, it takes about an hour but its pretty straight forward. Also with the OEM recovery disk there is no need (most of the time) to put in a key or register windows (its per-registered, and the key is embedded in the PC's BIOS) I hope this helps you some.



    (I am sorry about the link that automatically starts the download, I could not find it anywhere else except Dells site)

    NEWCASTLE GIRL

    A young brunette Newcastle girl, down on her luck, decided to end it all

    one night by casting herself into the cold, dark waters off Newcastle

    quayside.

    As she stood on the edge, pondering the infinite, a young sailor noticed

    her as he strolled by.

    "You're not thinking of jumping, are you pet?" he asked.

    "Yes, I am." replied the sobbing girl.

    Putting his arm around her, the kind sailor coaxed her back from the

    edge.

    "Look, nothing's worth that. I'll tell you what, I'm sailing off for

    America tomorrow. Why don't you stow away on board and start a new life

    over there? I'll set you up in one of the lifeboats on the deck, bring you food and water

    every night, and I'll look after you if you look after me - if you know

    what I mean."

    The girl, having no better prospects, agreed, and the sailor sneaked her

    on board that very night.

    For the next 3 weeks the sailor came to her lifeboat every night,

    bringing food and water, and making love to her until dawn.

    Then, during the fourth week, the captain was performing a routine

    inspection of the ship and it's lifeboats...

    He peeled back the cover to find the startled brunette, and demanded an

    explanation.

    The girl came clean, "I've stowed away to get to America . One of the

    sailors is helping me out, he set me up in here and brings me food and

    water every night ... and he's screwing me."

    The puzzled captain stared at her for a moment before a grin cracked his

    face and he replied...

    ”He certainly is pet, this is the South Shields Ferry!"Well if this one isn't clean enough...I give up!!?
    Clear and to the point, it rang my bell, might join the Navy now, or move up to Newcastle. 10/10

    Do you think my writing is OK?

    Absently tugging out the splinters and fragments of rope imbedded in his heavily freckled skin, a boy contemplated the distant beach. The edge of a vast continent was barely visible over a wide expanse of waves, just a thin strip of white that shimmered in the oppressive heat.

    From his place in the crow鈥檚 nest Andrew McCoy could just make out a dark ribbon of colour hovering above that far-away shore. Recalling what little he had been told about the journey鈥檚 destination, he guessed that this band of darkness might be the mouth of the strange jungle he would soon be asked to enter.

    Tired after a morning spent in the sun, Andrew sat down on the small circular platform, his knees bent and bare feet flat against its tall wooden sides. Sighing, he wiped his dripping forehead with the back of his hand, gasping in pain as salty sweat invaded the raw little wounds he had created with each splinters鈥?extraction. A breeze played across his face as he rubbed his stinging hand; its clean scent a welcome change after a long voyage spent amongst a crew that worked hard and smelt like it. The tip of an enormous sail a few yards above Andrew鈥檚 head twitched back and forth across the sun, causing his upturned face to be alternately bathed in golden light and plunged into purple shadow.

    He gazed skyward, hypnotized by the fluttering sail, until he remembered one of his mother鈥檚 myriad of warnings; looking into the sky on a sunny day was a sure way to make yourself go blind. Andrew thought this unlikely, but saw no point in taking chances; it would be difficult to become a ship鈥檚 captain if he couldn鈥檛 read a compass. He pulled the faded blue kerchief wound around his forehead down over his face. It was scratchy and stiff from several weeks鈥?perspiration, but it worked to shield his eyes from the worst of the sun鈥檚 rays.

    Recalling his mother鈥檚 advice sent little waves of guilt sloshing around in Andrew鈥檚 stomach. The two had fought constantly in the weeks leading up to this voyage, Andrew鈥檚 mother insisting that, at thirteen years old, Andrew was nowhere near old enough to go on such an expedition. But Andrew had held firm, relying on his own tenacity and on the help of his uncle Maxwell, who was both captain and funder of this journey. In the end, his mother had said that if Andrew wanted to go there was nothing she could do to stop him. However, she had refused to accompany him to the docks to see him off, and he had left her sobbing at the kitchen table, tears running down his own cheeks as he had slammed the front door.

    Despite all the fighting, weeping, and fervent declarations Andrew had made to his mother that he would be a part of this expedition, his desire to take part in the voyage was more or less arbitrary. Andrew鈥檚 longing for a life on the ocean had less to do with a passion for adventure on the high seas than it did with a fear of another kind of life.

    His father had died of cholera about a year ago, but until then Patrick McCoy had worked as a coach driver for America鈥檚 wealthy elite. Memories of his father鈥檚 workdays still repulsed Andrew. He vividly recalled watching his father polish his carriage lovingly well into the night; not stopping until wood shone and metal gleamed. Andrew also remembered the dismissive way wealthy patrons had treated his father and his cherished coach. Plantation owners put out reeking cigars on the delicate curtains. City bankers were sick in the carriage after whisky fuelled nights in smoky gentleman鈥檚 clubs. Aging matriarchs left the messes of their ratty dogs behind to stink up the carriage carpet.

    Watching his father bow and smile to these wretched people had made Andrew hot with anger and, though he never admitted this to himself, embarrassment. At his father鈥檚 funeral (to which many of his father鈥檚 customers were invited, although none came), Andrew had decided that the McCoy鈥檚 occupational legacy would die along with his father.Do you think my writing is OK?
    Something about the word choices take away from the historical value of the piece. I expect the language to be more formal although still informal for that time period. Again something about it was lacking for me. I knew when it should have been around (as far as time) but I wasn't truly there.



    I don't mind that the storyteller is so young but at the same time a part of me hopes he ages at least to 16 soon. Mainly because historically their thought processes are more formal than what we have today and he will be better at telling the same story.



    I did like it just missed some authenticity of it.Do you think my writing is OK?
    It's a little wordy making it hard to breeze through; aside from that it's very goodDo you think my writing is OK?
    I'm afraid this doesn't sound any more like a 13 year old boy's thoughts than it did in the last version when he was 12.



    Try getting into his head. What language and images would a kid like this use? This sounds like an American woman with a decent level of education.

    bsently tugging out some of the painful little splinters and fragments of rope imbedded in his heavily freckled skin, a stocky young boy contemplated the distant beach. At the moment, the edge of the vast continent was merely a thin strip of white sand shimmering in the oppressive heat, barely visible over a wide expanse of green waves. From his place high in the crow鈥檚 nest, Cian Rush could also make out a dark ribbon of colour that seemed to hover just above that far-away shore. Recalling what little he had been told about the journey鈥檚 destination, Cian guessed that this band of darkness might in fact be the mouth of the strange, shadowy jungle he would soon be asked to enter.

    Tired after a morning spent under a boiling sun, Cian sat down on the small circular platform, knees bent and bare feet flat against its tall wooden sides. Sighing deeply, he wiped his dripping forehead with the back of his hand before gasping in pain and pulling it back when salty sweat invaded the raw little wounds he had created with each splinters鈥?extraction.

The two had fought constantly in the weeks leading up to this voyage, Cian鈥檚 mother insisting that, at twelve years old, Cian was nowhere near old enough to go on such an expedition. But Cian had held firm, relying on his own tenacity and the help of his uncle Roger, who was both captain and funder of this journey. In the end, his mother had said that if Cian wanted to go there was nothing she could do to stop him. However, she had refused to accompany him to the docks to see him off, and he had left her sobbing at the kitchen table, tears running down his own cheeks as he had slammed the front door.

Memories of his father鈥檚 workdays still repulsed Cian. He vividly recalled watching his father polish his carriage lovingly well into the night; not stopping until wood shone and metal gleamed. Cian also remembered the dismissive way wealthy patrons had treated his father and his cherished coach. Plantation owners put out reeking cigars on the delicate curtains sewn by Cian鈥檚 mother.

    Cian shifted, trying to find a more comfortable position on the baking hot planks. A merry whistle reached his ears, ringing clear all the wayki up to his wooden perch towering over the sea. Cian smiled at the sound. His uncle Roger鈥檚 whistling was easily distinguishable, even over the competing sounds of crashing waves and crying gulls. Not only was the whistling exceptionally bad, but rather than being a common, bawdy ditty that one would expect to hear from the lips of a sailor, the melody was a charming piece of classical music. Chopin, if Cian wasn鈥檛 mistaken. The tune was all the more enchanting for this incongruity; notes meant to tinkle out of pianos in grand halls instead wove their way amongst cursing sailors and creaking ropes.Do you like my first Chapter? Or does its suckitude overwhelm you?
    It doesn't suck but you do have some obvious errors. For one you should always Show not Tell your story, and all you have here is one long Tell. You also overwrite, giving way too many details and information when none are warranted to advance the story line.



    Keep writing; you are just making rookie mistakes.Do you like my first Chapter? Or does its suckitude overwhelm you?
    I read the whole thing. And that's saying something. It held my interest. I came to like and understand Cian. Good descriptions! Well done!!Do you like my first Chapter? Or does its suckitude overwhelm you?
    I like this story :) you have a really vivid imagination...It's good and I think it's somewhat professional. There are some mistakes but they are only little spelling mistakes. Keep on writing :D
    I love it! It kept my interest right through; you have really interesting and vivid description. I would definitely buy the book.

    10 Points: Is This Possible?

    I've just watch "Captain America", which got me wondering if there's something super-natural in any way could happen to you? (Super Powers) ? Lol



    I dont know, when i've watched the movie I said to myself "Damn I wish that could happen to me". Seems crazy as heck, but i wish. haha



    BQ: You know the game "Halo" right? (Halo Reach, Halo Combat Evolved). Armored suits with shields and abilities like camoflage (invisible). Will or Is that be possible? The only realistic thing in that are jet packs :P10 Points: Is This Possible?

    What's wrong with Marvel and DC comics these days...?

    What's wrong with Marvel and DC:

    Here is what I don't like, that I can think of right now anyway...

    I guess there will always be the problem of trying to explain why after 50 years Batman is still in his early 30's. I hear they are making Batman a New God to take care of the problem.

    I don't like the new Blue Beetle either. Poor Ted Kord. Wonder Woman is now a murderer too.

    I don't like seeing the characters change as much as they have. Some things I don't mind but it seems like when they are going to veer off the path, Man do they!



    Parallax.

    Death and rebirth of Jolt of the Thunderbolts

    Superman with long hair and an attitude

    All the different lanterns of various colors (this one I feel a little indifferent about, but when you look back at the history, OA was supposedly the center of everything.)

    Oh, speaking of OA I don't care for the female Guardians of the Universe who were never there before.

    Multiple Monitors.

    Identity Crisis (you knew at the end Atom's wife would be back as a villain) and the loss of Sue was huge. Plus the mind wiping stuff. Heck Marvel did it to the entire Univers and no one minded.

    Spidey taking off his mask, then when Marvel realizes they screwed up royally, makes a deal with the Devil (Mephisopholese) to make everyone forget but he and Mary Jane are no more.

    Infinite Crisis (How do you change reality...oh that's right hit a wall over and over.)

    Superboy goes insane.

    Bringing Back Barry Allen, (who died a hero to save the mult-verse) and Hal Jordan

    The Initiative.

    Iron Man hunts down and puts in jail any other hero who doesn't go along with the Keene act, I mean the Mutant registration act,...I mean the Superhuman Registration Act. Because after all it's the law. After the Skrull invasion, Iron Man is blamed because his Stark industries technology failed as the invasion began. Iron Man became an outlaw and was told to give up since, you know, it is the law. Iron Man goes on the run and tries to clear his name.

    Death of Captain America after a drawn out process by the writers to prove he is no longer of any value and that he is outdated. You know because he was brought out of the ice and still has the mindset of someone from the 40's who distrusts Nazi's. (hmmm Red Skull, Baron Von Struker, Baron Zemo....) no reason to distrust Nazi's these days...right.

    The whole Idea of the Illuminati (Dr. Strange (Sorcerer Supreme), Namor (King of Atlantis), Professor Xavior (Leader of X-men), Iron Man (An Avenger, Rich, and Leader of Shield), Black Bolt (Leader of the inhumans, living on the moon), Mr. Fantastic (Leader of the first Super Hero team in marvel and the first Marvel family the Fantastic four, Also one of the top scientific minds in Marvel.) These 6 are secretly running everything? Is this a very heroic thing? Years ago, they decided it was a good idea to attack the Skrull homeworld to teach them a lesson and warn them not to come to Earth again. This really backfired when they were captured and their DNA was copied. Here comes the latest Skrull invasion...

    The Illuminati also tricked Hulk into going into space and launched him off to live on a peaceful planet forever...for his own good of course. Here comes World War Hulk, yeah, not a good idea to make Ol' Green skin angry is it...

    Hulk after coming back deciding to make the villains/heroes (Iron man, Dr. Strange, Mr. Fantastic, and Black Bolt) go through what he went through on the Planet Sakarr as if to teach them a lesson. At least he gave the thumbs down when asked if they should live or die. Should have been the world breaker.

    Jason Todd brought back to life...

    Death of the Martian Manhunter for no reason at all...by a no-name villain.

    Marvel saying No more smoking in comics, Wolverine now chews on a toothpick.

    Beast has evolved one step too far for my liking. He looks like an animal now, which is probably what they wanted....you know he is a Beast.



    Gosh I can go on and on....



    here is what I've seen recently that I DO like:

    Storm has married Black Panther

    Sentry has potential

    I love the Thunderbolts when they first started, storyline really dwindles around issue 50 or so.

    Robin, Tim-Drake, is still cool.

    The Young Avengers, If only they had left out the two openly gay characters.. .

    I like the revamping of old obscure characters, or taking old "lame" characters and making them worthwhile again. Captain Cold recently.



    What I'd like to see:

    I wish they would do a really good Aquaman story.

    I would like to see a good Angel (the X-men) storyline.

    More movies based on the Great Stories each have had. (I'd love to see Secret Wars done).

    Really looking forward to the Watchmen movie.What's wrong with Marvel and DC comics these days...?
    Dude, these comics are turing to crap, and fast! They are totally messing up the essence of the characters, the one that got me them most was "one more day" I hate the comic with a passion, I love spidey, they ruined his life man, they did.What's wrong with Marvel and DC comics these days...?
    Wow, this is the most interesting / insightful opinion i have read all year.

    Marvel sure does like making millions universes and twisting everything up.

    What's wrong with Marvel and DC comics these days...?
    damn right

    they get all the good characters and muddle everything up

    and then disney bought marvel for 4 billion

    so everything good about marvel has been ruined

    theyve lost millions of worldwide fans and now all were stuck with is 'Superhero Squad'

    and hopes of more marvel movies :/

    These are of course all dependent on condition. Comic grading is actually quite complicated, and to someone not in the know it's very easy to mistake a book for being in good condition. Pick up a grading guide from a book store. None of these issues are hugely valuable. Ebay is probably your best bet.What are the prices of these comic books?

    This site is excellent, find any comic book and see the price for each condition. You have to create an account first though.What are the prices of these comic books?
    Mint is more than just complete, it really has to look brand new. Most new comics aren't even in mint. In your list of "mint" comics there's one with the # missing! That's way way waaaay not mint. Use http://www.e-bigs.net/freetool.php to determine grade. Look them up at http://comicbookrealm.com for pricing.

    As to where to sell, try craigslist. You should price them at no more than half the price you looked up at comic book realm, and be prepared to accept a lower offer. Old comics is a buyer's market now. If a comic book shop will even take them, they'd offer you no more than 20% of the price you looked up, and then they'd have to try to find someone willing to pay as much as you looked up to buy from them. So selling them on craigslist for half of the price you looked up is a plus for you, and a good deal for the hypothetical buyer since he doesn't have to pay comic shop prices.

    Wolverine vs. The Time Guardian from Samurai Jack?

    Wolverine has adamantium claws/skeleton (indestructible metal), trained with military, ninjas, covert ops, the x-men, the avengers, etc. (knows a **** load of martial arts) and has a healing factor (can survive an explosion equal to 250 pounds of dynamite)



    Has fought against the likes of the Hulk, Wendigo, Juggernaut, Captain America, Spiderman, Namor, etc.



    http://marvel.wikia.com/wiki/James_Howlett_(Earth-616)



    Time Guardian



    Alive for countless eons (so super longevity, or immortality), super strength (can eat metallic shield like a cracker), super stamina, fought against countless warriors while protecting time portal, super invulnerable (shot with missile launchers and received no injury, except his clothes with burnt) knowledge of supposedly every type of martial arts/weaponry.



    Killed countless warriors of all shapes and sizes, and pummeled Samurai Jack, who's like super human, samurai, ninja, monk, archer....he's like a batman with the super soldier formula, but he has a sword that can cut through adamantium n' ****.

    Do they have to do every movie(avengers/marvel)?

    so far the new marvel Studios have came up with iron-man and hulk(loved them).at the end of hulk, general ross was talking to stark and stark said something about starting a team (taking credit from nick fury).well,next year is captain america and late 2009 or early 2010 is the thor movie. are they going to have make a hank pym,scarlet witch and vision movie?what about a shield movie?is it going to be 2017 when the avenger movie comes? Do they have to do every movie(avengers/marvel)?
    If all goes according to plan The Avengers film is scheduled for release July 2011 w/ Captain America the same year but released in May.

    As far as the other characters you mentioned I believe they're doing an Antman film...don't ask me why, and I think it's Scott Lang not Hank Pym as the character who's playing Antman.

    No mention of a Shield film...as of yet..but if they do make one I hope it's classic Nick Fury, not Ultimate..but I don't think that will happen.

    Scarlet Witch and The Vision are not what you'd consider strong enough characters to warrant their own film...but the same could be said for Antman yet they're giving him one...go figure.



    This is the time to produce these characters for film, look at the success of Iron Man, Hulk and The Dark Knight. If the studios take their time and get the right people behind in making these films... it's a natural progression and every comic fans dream to see these guys on the big screen.Do they have to do every movie(avengers/marvel)?
    no

    Your favorite superhero and why??? (marvel, dc, or other)?

    i already asked earlier tonight who's your favorite x-men character, now i wanna know who's your favorite marvel or any other universe superhero and why???

    i myself have lots of favorites from the classic spidey to the odd little howard the duck and every hero in between. the marvel universe is filled with all the cool ones!!! but call me a cornball i dont care CAPTAIN AMERICA is in my top three of all time. john wayne with some super syrum in him and a kick butt shield. that's my guy!!! rounding out my top three are colossus from x-men fame and of course wolverine. SNIKT!!! SNIKT!!!!(claw popping sound effects).

    so who are yours and why???sound off yahoo'ers!!!Your favorite superhero and why??? (marvel, dc, or other)?
    Spider-Man... because he struggles to be a human and a superhero... his costume is great... he has great villains... truly fun and exciting...



    The Flash... I always preferred the version drawn by Carmine Infantino, but The Flash really made the most of his powers... not just fast, but he learned to vibrate through walls (!) and could "control all his molecules (!)" which was very cool... and the ring with the compressed costume? Also unique %26amp; cool...



    Dr. Strange... I love this guy, always have and always will... he completely stretches the ideas of what a superhero is and what reality is... plus, he ain't no teenager! If you follow his origin chronologically (med school, years as a doctor, years as a drunken loser, and years in training) he had to be at least 50 years old when he started... and his mentor The Ancient One was several hundred years old when he finally died/became one with the Universe...



    Runner-Ups:

    Superman

    Legion of Superheroes

    Magneto (I know, not really a hero... but his powers are awesome)

    Ambush Bug

    Green Lantern

    Deadman

    The Spectre
    cat woman!XDYour favorite superhero and why??? (marvel, dc, or other)?
    The Hulk, because he can crush you flat.
    spidey - he has more than no powers [batman] but isn't TOO powerful [supes]



    i also like the way he gets around - too many heroes fly



    and his suit fits under his clothes - heroes like batman having to go home to change is stupid... the bad guy should be long gone.



    i love flash too, for similar reasonsYour favorite superhero and why??? (marvel, dc, or other)?
    Batman, unlike everyone else he doesn't have nor need special powers to get the job done, he doesn't use a gun either.
    Batman all day every day. He does it all and with his head without superpowers or a gun.
    Deadpool, he delivers every issue with a nice dose of "gallows humor". ;)

    Marvel comics?

    The new Marvel films are so much better than before, they are really raising the bar on modern day films.

    I just wanted to ask what people thought of the latest Iron man and Hulk films?

    The Incredible Hulk was soooooo much better than The Hulk, I think this is to do with great directors and actors realizing the plaudits that can come from something that maybe in the past was seen as a laughing stock of Holywood where comic book heros were a joke. (Take the 1st captain america and Flash films for example). Also wanted some feedback on wheather or not there will be an avengers or shield movie with Iron man and Hulk in the mix (If you've seen the movies then you'll know what I mean?????????). Cheers guys, lets hope the trend of these movies continues cause lets face it, these comic book heros let us all find something in ourselfs thats worth working on. Everyone needs a hero, just ask John Smeaton, hero of Glasgow airport!!!!!!!!!! :):):)Marvel comics?
    I agree that the marvel movies have gotten a lot better. But You're thinking too far back. They JUST RECENTLY got better. I'm talking JUST The Incredibly Hulk and Iron-Man. Although the Spiderman movies were insanely popular (and I admit that I love to watch them), they're just mediocre as comics and movies. As well as the X-men movies, although I am excited to see a Wolverine spin-off.The Incredible Hulk was 500 times better than the Hulk and I think it was mostly due to Edward Norton and the direction. Especially the direction. And Iron-Man is the best Marvel superhero so I expected his movie to be spectacular. I could not imagine anyone pulling off Iron-man's character flaws and humor as well as Robert Downey Jr did. He is Iron-Man.



    As far as an avengers movie is concerned, there is with 100% certainty going to be one. That's why Robert Downey Jr was in the end of The Hulk saying "I'm putting together a team" I can't wait. They're in the pre-planning period according to imdb, but it's actually kicking-off which is good news.



    And for comic book movies in general, I'm glad the public has started enjoying them. I love to share the superhero love.

    (As a sidenote, Batman takes the cake)Marvel comics?
    I agree with you. The Incredible Hulk was way better than The Hulk. The Hulk had a good origin story but it just didn't have enough action. The Incredible Hulk had a good story and lots of action. I was so happy when I found out the Abomination was in the movie. I can't wait for the next one, with The Leader (aka Samuel Sterns). And like Jessica said, they will be making an Avengers movie.Marvel comics?
    You are so very right. If Marvel continues to have people who have a genuine knowledge and love of the characters and they take their time w/ producing these films, this trend could continue for a long time and we're the lucky ones to benefit from it.
    There will be an avengers movie and it could be possible that the hulk is the villian. There's tons of information about the movie already, even though it's not set to come out for another 3 or so years, http://www.avengersnews.com

  • Who do you think are Marvel's 3 most important characters?

    DC's got their trinity with Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman. They are of vast importance within the universe, though sales-wise it's probably more like Batman, Superman, and Green Lantern. So in your opinion who are the Marvel equivalent in terms of in story importance.



    For me:

    1) Captain America: He's that guy that everyone else looks up to.

    2) Reed Richards: The smartest man in the marvel universe and has made a ton of important discoveries.

    3) Iron Man: He's been a member of the Avengers since the beginning. In the last few years he's been involved in the Civil War, been Director of Shield, amongst other things.Who do you think are Marvel's 3 most important characters?
    I can't really decide... (for 2 %26amp; 3)
    EDIT: I just re-read your question. Story importance? Oh, it'll take forever for me to make my mind up on that one.

    1.) Spider-Man: Marvel's mascot

    2.) X-Men are pretty popular and are important characters, so maybe some people will say Wolverine in their list. But Captain America is pretty important...

    3.) Hulk or Iron Man. I was going to say Thor, but I don't think he's as popular as these two. I personally think that Hulk is the more popular of the two, especially with WWH going on.

    Sales wise, Spider-Man, Hulk and Wolverine (X-Men), so I think the big money makers are Hulk, Spider-Man, and I'll add Iron Man onto the list too (especially because of the movies); although some people don't like Iron Man because of his attitude.

    I think that Marvel is generally represented by Wolverine, Spider-Man, and Hulk. They're usually the ones on the posters for comic shops. I think Captain America will become more popular (usually by people who don't read comics) because of the new movie coming out. July 22, if I'm correct.


    Sorry I couldn't make up my mind. "/Who do you think are Marvel's 3 most important characters?

    but pretty much everyone from the illuminati is big in the marvel world

    Avengers Movie?

    Since Samuel L. Jackson, filling the Nick Fury role of SHIELD, asked Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) at the end of Iron Man about forming a team and Tony Stark hinted at the same scenario to Gen. Ross at the end of Incredible Hulk, when are we actually going to get an Avengers movie? I keep searching and nothing is popping up as if its in production or not. I know Marvel wants to get out Thor, Wolverine, and Captain America first, which makes sense to do before making Avengers. Since Marvel already spilled the beans I was just wondering where the production is on Avenger, as well as Thor, Captain America, and Wolverine. Thanks.Avengers Movie?

    Comic Beatdown: Dick Grayson vs Bucky Barnes?

    You've got to be a bit of a fanboy for this one!



    Dick Grayson, the original boy wonder, the best Robin, Nightwing and now Batman himself. One of my favorite all time characters, just because of what he represents, what he stands for, and he's achieved and what he can be.



    Bucky Barnes, the legendary side kick to Captain America, who similar to dick, has replaced his mentor as the new Captain America.



    Both awesome hand to hand, both tacticians, both kinda badass. Bucky's a trained killer while Dick has a strict moral code. How far will each of them go? Throw in the gadgets, the shield, the batarang, sniper rifles, and all the aerial combat you can handle.



    FANBOYS ASSEMBLE!!Comic Beatdown: Dick Grayson vs Bucky Barnes?
    Although I'm a huge Batman fan, i'll have to give this one to Bucky... both are almost equals except for 3 things:

    1. Bucky has a cybernetic left arm with superhuman strength and enhanced reaction time.

    2. He trained under a real war (WWII)

    3. He's an expert assassin who carries a pistol and a combat knife that he is not afraid to use...Comic Beatdown: Dick Grayson vs Bucky Barnes?
    I say Bucky only due to having a machine gun and a cybernetic arm. Dick is as good as Batman, but Bucky is way more acrobatic and has been around for quite a long time. I think Bucky can defeat Dick, but it will be a tough keep away type battle.

    What happened after the Marvel Comics Civil War?

    I am behind in my comic reading, and I just finished reading the civil war series and most of the tie-ins. But after Captain America died, what happened??



    Are there more Captain America issues with the REAL Steve Rogers who came back?

    What happened to Sharon Carter (Agent 13), wasnt she pregnant?Doctor Faustus-Red Skull? Tony Stark and SHIELD?? Spider-man after the Mephisto incident?........

    What are names of these comics that has these storylines??

    It's tough to keep them all straight! Are the comics coming out today still following the storyline that a Superhuman Registration Act went through? or was that just an alternate world and things are back to normal now?



    I'd appreciate your help, Thanks!!What happened after the Marvel Comics Civil War?
    There was peace.

    Top 5 favourite superheroes and why?

    I was wondering what kind of superhero movies in your mind are the best for now and why.

    My top 5 are: 5. Iron Man- Come on, I love his Iron man suit and he kicks total butt. I didnt too much care for his second movie but he rocks.

    4. Thor- This guy has a hammer that can just whoop just about anyone who gets in its way and I think we can all agree we're not messing with Thor.

    3. Captain America- I love his determination and bravery and his never give up attitude. The shield is also a nice touch and that rocks as well.

    2. Spider-Man- Ive always been a fan of spider-man and hes always interested me and Im always happy to see whats spider-man gonna do next.

    1. Batman- I like Batman the best because hes not just a masked vigliante running around town beating people up. Hes a detective masked vigiliante with no powers that has had his childhood destroyed and dedicates his life to saving others and protecting every inch of Gotham City. No matter how cool the premise or power of a hero none will ever beat Batman in my eyes.Top 5 favourite superheroes and why?
    From best to least favorite (in the top 5 list of course)

    1.) Superman. I don't give a flying crap what anyone else says about him or if people like him or not, he's always been cool to me and he always will be. I've gotten too much ridicule for liking (loving) the "boyscout". Superman ISN'T cool, he's far beyond cool. Cool is just something to describe that a certain group of people like, Superman is epic. Nothing succeeds epic. He's surrounded by gun-loving, hiding in the shadows, lets-kill-the-bad-guys "heroes". Superman sets the bar for heroes, and quite high.

    2.) Batman. Batman was the first hero that I actually read, so he's not going anywhere on the list. After everything Bruce (I'm just talking about Bruce, not Grayson or anyone else) has been through, he still gets up everyday to make his city better. As corny as I just made it sound, that's one of the reasons I like him. His villains are amazing too.
    And his comics are great.

    3.) Spider-Man. He's absolutely hilarious and gives me a break from the all dark, brooding heroes that seem to be trending today. His comics are light-hearted and give me a great laugh.

    4.) Flash. His villains are fantastic and the comics are awesome. I don't know what else to write here because it's pretty obvious how great this guy is.
    My favorite Flashes go in order: Barry, Bart, Wally, and Jay.

    5.) Green Lantern. His comics are amazing and I'm not just talking about the Green Lantern Corps, I'm talking about all of the other "colors". Blue, black, orange, red, etc. Incredibly interesting.
    1.Batman cuz he kicks hippy azz and is the most realistic hero

    2. Iron Man, like you said bad azz costume

    3. Thor he has godly powers, no one can beat that

    4. Hulk, I just really like hulk. don't get him angry

    5. Spider Man, again i really like the costume and the spider powers, especially the spider sense.Top 5 favourite superheroes and why?
    Gogeta-sarcastic n and completely unstopable

    Hulk- straight monster in a good way who can stop him?

    Thor-all i got to say is dat hammer

    Hawk-eye- never heard or seen him miss

    Kratos-saved cities on the path of his revenge and he can control time cause he killed the sisters of fait!
    totally with you on iron man, spiderman, captain america, and batman. I love the superheros that used to be regular people then turn super. But I would take away thor and add Flash just because hes always been a childhood favorite :)Top 5 favourite superheroes and why?

    1. THOR, because I like the fact he is extremely powerful and yet vulnerable enough to still sometimes lose. He is a powerhouse and yet magical as well. I like that he can fly, but only with the aid of his hammer. There's plenty of depth to his character. He's a warrior, but he's a warrior that cares. I like that he isn't guaranteed to win every fight (unlike a certain super hero in a red cape) which makes his fights entertaining.

    2. WOLVERINE. He's like Clint Eastwood with claws. I like that he's considered one of the best fighters in the world and is able to fight people way more powerful than himself, lose and still not die because of his healing factor. I like that he doesn't fear anyone and doesn't give a damn what people think.

    3. BALDER, because he is similar to Thor, only weaker and because he doesn't have a bad bone in his body and he tries his best to do the right thing.

    4. The Punisher, similar to Wolverine, except he can be stupid at times and endangers innocent people, which is why I have him at 4.

    5. DEADPOOL, at 5 because technically he's not a hero and can be evil at times, which is one reason I have him a 5.
    5) Jaime Maddrox (Multiple Man of the Xmen, X-Factor, etc) - At first, the idea of his power 'only' being able to create copies of himself seems a bit dull... but I really love what they have done with his character for 2 main reasons - #1, i love the idea of reabsorbing multiples to learn what they have learned... like sending one multiple to learn kung-fu, and another to learn a foreign language, and #2 - i love the whole splitting of his personalities into different versions of himself, as multiples...



    4) Dr. Strange - I've always loved the arcane magic - and the story of his redemption is just brilliant. That's all.



    3) The Martian Manhunter - J'onn J'onzz - Kind of like Superman...except WAY better. :) Let's take most of Superman's powers... add on invisibility, intangibility, being able to read minds, shape-shift, and instead of being vulnerable to kyrptonite, he has a fear of fire...which he conquers, in a sense...



    2) Black Panther - (full disclosure: I am friends with someone who worked on the comic a few years ago) - I was never a big fan, but then again I only barely knew him from the Avengers... When I realized he is a sort of "African-ninja-batman/iron man" hybrid, I really started to dig him. Sadly, I don't have much hope for him coming to the big screen...but you never know, as Marvel wants to be churning out 3-4 Marvel movies a year, starting in 2013... Here's to hoping... (and hoping it doesn't SUCK...)



    1) Batman. The beginning and the end. He was my introduction to comics as a kid - and my 'role model' in a sense... (at least in the 'you dont have to have powers to be amazing' kind of way) I love his intelligence, dark humor, and the integration of his martial arts, technology, and ninja-mystique... I love the concept that Batman is considered a match for both psychopathic serial killers, and uber-powered alien beings... I could go on for hours...
    1. Namor the Sub-Mariner -- from the forties when he was romancing Betty Page and showing his affection for New York the way Gojira did his/hers for Tokyo if the Human Torch wasn't around.



    2. Dr. Strange. As Stan Lee said this was his reaction to CHANDU the MAGICIAN and the media versions really need a gong.



    3. The mighty Thor. Again in the original -- in his origin he first fights alien invaders. At one point on Olympus he meets two of the Genies from the Thief of Baghdad. Can you say camp? The idiots who made the new movie can't but that is what Thor is about.



    4. Ibis the invincible. See my comments about two but Dr. Strange is Marvel and Ibin was Fawcett -- more for kids but with Schaffenberger art still nice.



    5. Phantom Stranger from the Seventies. The list would go on but Phantom Stranger when Aparo was drawing him was like the best of Hellboy. Which would be next on my list.
