It's the "Highlander"-type of success...
The movie blew goats in the theater (that's what you get for 'editing out the cool' in order to get a lowwer guidance rating...)
When the DVD came out, and they edit back in the death, blood, guts, and gore...they had a hit...go figure.
...and that's about the time it hit the fan...
Truisms I know:
1) Marvel is NOT better than DC (nor should EVERYTHING be ‘ULTIMITED’),
2) D20 is NOT the best gaming system out there (nor should EVERYTHING be ‘crammed’ into it),
3) And No matter how ‘THEY’ dress it up, Regardless of how ‘THEY’ title it, and even if ‘THEY’ say “BASED ON…”; “ENTERPRISE” IS NOT STAR TREK!!!
4) 'Reality' T.V. ain't 'Real'
