The best-laid plans of mice and mammoths often go awry.

I've been waiting for that for so long now. Ginta Jinji is one of the best producer for GIGA, if you'd like to see his works in progress, his blog is here http://blog.livedoor.jp/jinji_jinta/ . Thanks for the link. I think. Sometimes it's not good to know so far in advance. I've been waiting since ...

First thing I thought when I saw those colors and the pigtails: "this is gonna get noticed -- and somebody's gonna hate that the tights aren't colored."

Imagineer

For those interested in GIGA's Japanese brand of heroine, um, peril...

Reiko Kobayakawa returns as Supandekusa Muun Einjeru for another chapter in the continuity she started, looking even more defeated and even more scantily clad. The preview went up last night.

In a real bar, if someone was being a disruptive prick, making other customers want to leave and quit coming back, it wouldn't matter whether they were directly insulting or persistently antagonistic but logically unassailable. If the bar manager or his bouncer didn't take care of the problem the ot...

Superheroine Central built a pretty focused brand, and nobody seems to be copying all of the elements. Much of that is no doubt deliberate -- each producer has their own likes -- but some of that may be the result of the short-clip format. SHC sought models that looked as much like comic book art as...

That mugging slapstick is straight off a community theater stage.

Imagineer

I doubt hundreds of dollars pays the full freight on a typical film from any of the genre's top producers today.

Imagineer

If models or actors wanted us to know where they are now, they'd be easy to find online.

Imagineer

There is clearly a specific fetish at work here -- something like her powers are enabled by physical contact with the costume -- and this costume makes her more vulnerable to having her powers neutralized. It's no more ridiculous than many other genre tropes, it's just not the usual brand of ridicul...

Imagineer

Gotta catch 'em all!

Imagineer

Maybe he indulges her, and she gives him the business.

Maybe she prefers one of the alt costumes shown in the pilot when she's in the bedroom.

Maybe she likes dressing up as Ursa and subduing Superman.

Imagineer

You won't like the 2014 She-Hulk. Spend a few seconds checking out the image-search results and move on.

Imagineer

Good gravy, descendingskulls, that first image shows a sexy costume, and a great pose shot from a great angle. Sigh... I was so foolish back in the day, not saving everything, assuming the website would always be around. And then one day it was gone, and all that content gone with it. I only have a ...

Imagineer

As hard as you've been pitching that story idea all over this board, this week's episode of Supergirl must have really made you feel funny down there.

Imagineer

Yes, it's in TPB. I think the run ended in January 2015.

Imagineer

The most recent 12-issue run of She-Hulk had her bulk up when she transformed, enough that it ruined suits. Javier Pulido's offputting art aside, I liked the way it was handled. The stories were good too -- Jen leaves the big law firm she's been working for and starts her own practice. Hellcat, Ant-...

No, rules should not be applied universally when all parties are not de facto on equal footing.

Imagineer

Satellite Sam is a 50s pulp comic. I like it.

Imagineer

vadimfv: You describe that team like there's something wrong with it in the minds of anyone but those with a sexual-objectifying agenda. ;) As for wading through hardline-PC fantasies... are you saying that finding straight-male-oriented comics with hot chicks in sexy costumes and poses isn't worth ...

Imagineer

It's possible that the creators and publishers of this particular comic book don't think it's necessary or even worthwhile to seek a happy medium between empowered women and women objectified for the male gaze, for this particular comic book. It's also possible that they think they've found it. *shr...

Imagineer

Dazzler looks like she blogs on Tumblr. Nico Minoru looks like an insouciant Asian cosplayer. Medusa still looks fine but Wilson has reduced her several cup sizes. Captain Marvel's battlesuit and dyke hairdo are indicative of the feminist burqas that many female superheroines are confined in nowada...

Imagineer

I'm sure it was a straight copy of The Flash. The Flash doesn't have to be the first show ever to have a team, even a team with a nearby villain sausage factory, for that to be so. Network television has a short attention span; CBS execs didn't hear "it's Buffy with a cape," they heard &qu...

Imagineer

Marvel really pissed me off with Secret Wars, especially Battleworld. It killed several Marvel titles that were getting really interesting. It was irredeemably stupid and arbitrary and desperate. I hope it brought Marvel a lot of new readers because they lost me for the duration. I'm pretty sure I a...

Imagineer

Even a different producer would have cloned The Flash. Really, only Berlanti or Kriesberg or Johns could have done something for CBS other than a clone. It may yet become more distinctive in a second season.

Imagineer

I had no faith that the show would succeed on CBS, or put its heroine in a costume without weird elements, or handle the Kal-Elephant in the room well, or deliver any but the tiniest intention-defying satisfaction of prurient interests. And it annoys the hell out of me that they just cloned The Flas...

Imagineer

Non-consensual scenarios are pretty commonly named as fantasies by many women, so feminist calls to label them categorically obscene or otherwise try to ban them will meet with some strong dissent. Protections for performers seem more likely, but probably more about establishing clear consent, and a...

Imagineer

The way I look at it: when in doubt, the answer to "why X instead of equally-producible Y" is "because there's money in X." And probably "because the promise of more money in Y is not convincing or compelling or is even shown not to be there from past experience." As fo...

There's a kind of piracy that affects the porn/fetish market more than other markets. Some people have the money but don't want to leave a paper trail. Piracy remains easier than legitimately purchasing videos without leaving a trail that's easy for a spouse or partner to find.

Imagineer

Sugarcoater: SHL's "Scarlet Fox" and a couple of Xplicit films are the closest things I've seen to what you describe. And by "close" I mean any heroine reaction more enthusiastic than "reluctant." Actually, I'm pretty sure there are a couple of GIGA videos that have a d...

Imagineer

Wow, that is a sexy costume. Great cut, the contrasting colors arranged cleverly to draw the eye, dramatize and emphasize all the right things. Cape just the right length. Digging the thigh-high boots too. Perfectly suited (!) to Amber's physique and the way she moves. "I. don't. lose." Ca...

Imagineer

Maybe it's because I just watched Ash vs Evil Dead, or maybe it's just because I can't see eyes or a face behind that mask, but those images are freaking me the fuck out right now.

Imagineer

Sugarcoater, it almost sounds like you're rooting for a "Dark" Blair Solaria. Corrupted powers, corrupted morals?

Imagineer

That doesn't look like the kind of uniform any real superheroine would wear. It looks like the kind of uniform someone high on their own newfound power and supercharged with sexual energy would wear. I like it. I love Dani G's take -- she really sells it with an engaging blend of confidence, excitem...

Imagineer

Oh my.

The top of her uniform is artfully distressed.

Imagineer

Yes, really. I bet you could shave and tuck and wear a costume that, from a lot of angles, would pass for female, and I'm sure "someone" will enjoy the new option.

Imagineer

Pantyhose lovers may have reasons, bare-legged lovers may have reasons... but what matters is that there are a lot of people in each group for whom there is no alternative and because of that there is no way to please both groups at once. Don't try. Don't think that if the pantyhose is sheer enough ...

Imagineer

I think Dillon's bust would look better in the unaltered cut, exposing her by undoing the collar and pulling the whole top down. But I expect most people would rather see some shoved-together cleavage and have a zipper to play with. Also FWIW, a shorter cape seems more Robin-like and youthful to me....

Imagineer

Skinemax "sex" scenes have their own absurdity. Something about the overacted thrusting, it's like they're riding children's playground equipment or practicing an off-Broadway show dance step. If dry-humping is presented as such, i.e. there's something about the plot or characters or prior...

Imagineer

Would it be crazy to suggest starting out mainstream? Helen Slater's Supergirl, Lynda Carter's Wonder Woman -- perhaps curate a few key scenes. If her and your tastes are darker (Rye?), Superman Returns -- yes, really, look at the Lex Island confrontation. Do you have a favorite mainstream comic boo...

Imagineer

I prefer when the heroine is NOT resistant through the entire experience. Perhaps she's overcome by the physical sensation, or her will is broken and she gives in to it, or she is conflicted by the fact that she's aroused by the situation. Voiceover is especially useful in getting this across. The i...

Imagineer

Wait, bush is back in vogue in mainstream porn? I guess I am out of touch. In porn, superheroine fetish or otherwise, I much prefer unobstructed labia. Above that, sculpted hair may be more flattering than total hairlessness. As for fighting -- as a frame of reference, I much prefer explicit sexual ...

Imagineer

Nobody wants to pay more than they have to, but you do things that other studios don't, and that has value.

Imagineer

If you're writing porn, and the character is essentially a sexual object, and the point of the scene is to induce arousal with the idea of imperilment, then sexism is irrelevant. If you're writing a story, the gender of the author does not determine whether or not it's sexist. The story's intent, th...

Imagineer

"This is not about fetishes." <Fetishes are requested.> It's very difficult for people not to describe the specific fetish they want to see, because that's what gets people to buy. I could tell you I like the way the Wizard is portrayed -- trying to be scientific and detached in his pursui...

Imagineer

.. but redwing is still gone right? so if they shared powers like it explains in the story of blue swan 1, how can blue swan have any powers now or recover in the first place. I thought they were linked, not that their powers were shared. And I vaguely remember a yin-yang to it, something about Red...

You just closed down DH because you said the investment returns were much less than you got from your less extreme content. JMHO but I don't think this new concept will substantially change those fortunes. I get that on the payment side there's a hard line for sexually-explicit material, and on the ...

Imagineer

Katie Holmes bowed out of The Dark Knight because it conflicted with another movie she wanted to be in, Mad Money with Diane Keaton and Queen Latifah. In hindsight, not a smart move, but I could see why she preferred to work with them versus playing the girlfriend in a superhero sequel.

Imagineer

Wonder Woman -- what a casting nightmare. Somebody who has proven themselves dependable in a big production and up to the physical challenges, young enough to play the role for eight years, willing to sign a multi-picture deal that could dictate what other projects they can do, willing to wear whate...
