One Reason Why I Haven't Read An X-Men Comic Since 2000

They, as a group, don't seem to have a problem straight-up murdering mofos anymore. I mean look at that picture: Colossus (the artist) and Nightcrawler (who was training to be a friggin' priest last I checked) have effectively killed everyone in those two vans.

Being the avid movie watcher that I am, I've noticed that more than one talented actress has been passed over for other talent.

The following ladies are not only talented, but beautiful. Hollywood: get off your ass and give these women more roles. DANIELLE FISHEL Noticeable TV/Movie Appearances: Boy Meets World; both National Lampoon's Dorm Dazes The delightful Ms. Fishel has the distinction of having the weirdest named ever associated with a smart-yet-hot character (or maybe I'm the only one who has a problem saying "Topanga!" whilst in the throes of passion) as well as participating in the death of the National Lampoon Series (I personally thought it died with Chevy Chase's career; who knew?). If you were to use her IMBD page as a reference, the only real fault people seem to hav
