Questions about dragons in Gargoyles...
1.Are they able to speak English (or any known human/gargoyle language)?
2.Do they have individual names?
3.What are they anyway? Animals? Sentinent beings like the gargoyles and the New Olympians?
4.Beside fire, can they breathe something else?
5.Does multi-headed dragons exists?
Thanks.
Greg responds...
Who said there are dragons in the gargoyle universe?

I noticed something during a viewing of Vendettas. In the background, there's a building with a sign on it reading 'ELEXEM'.
Hmmm... Elexem. El-ex-em. L-X-M. LXM.
Now, what could that stand for? Lexington-Xanatos Matrix, perhaps? A hint, could it be, for the future? ;)
Greg responds...
ELEXEM STEEL CORPORATION. I'm aware of it. ;)

Subject Atlantis: Serious Real-Life
My question is, do you believe the lost city (or island) of Atlantis once existed, as written in the writings of Plato?
Greg responds...
I tend to believe in everything, but if you're confronting me, my answer is "I don't know."

You said a while ago that you found Back To The Future 2 "masturbatory". I was just curious why that was. (Not asking in any hostile way. Just genuinely curious.)
Greg responds...
I enjoyed the first film. I even loved the ending and was looking forward to the sequel.
But the sequel was disappointing. It's been awhile, so my full grasp of my specific gripes are vague, but...
The way that Elizabeth Shue (MJF's recast girlfriend) is shunted aside suggested that they weren't interested in really expanding on the previous movies' situation but were really just interested in doing a CRAZIER version of the first film.
MJF plays his character's own kids. Why? He didn't play his own parents in the first movie. What's the point of casting him as his own son AND DAUGHTER, except to mess with our suspension of disbelief for the sake of showing us just how undeniably talented MJF is.
All the intercutting with the first film was interesting at first, but ultimately served to undercut the first film in my memory.
All this struck me as masturbatory. The film-makers (particularly Zemekis and Fox) having their own good time at the expense of what could have been a really fun movie.
Just my opinion, of course.

What do you think of the DC Captain Marvel?
Greg responds...
I've always been semi-fond of the character. Why?

What do you think of Simon Furman(Roswell Conspiracies, Transformers UK comic, Beast Wars and X-Men Evolution)?
Greg responds...
I'm unfamiliar with the name.
And aside from one episode of X-Men Evolution, I'm unfamiliar with all the properties you named.
Well, obviously, I have some familiarity with Roswell Conspiracies, but I've never seen the version that aired on television. Only the work I did.

Have you seen Batman Beyond?
What do you think of it?
I've been told that the design of Terry McGinnis from BB is similar to that of Terry Chung of the NO any truth to that?
Greg responds...
Yes.
I think it's very well made. And I like certain things about it. But it just feels more Spider-Manish to me than Batman.
Well, there's no final model for Terry Chung, but from what I've seen, no. For starters, Terry Chung is Chinese-American. Terry McGinnis isn't. And Terry Chung wears contemporary clothes. Terry McGinnis wears... well... clothes from beyond.
