That would make a lot of money.

The Avengers 3: Age of Godzilla.

Possible

 

[JOE]

I would die happy.

 

[UltimateWebhead]

Throw Spider-man in there and you have the ultimate crossover.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Care to read the comic?
Spidey does appear in one of the issues

 

[JOE]

Aziz is well read.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

I only knew about Gogira in Marvel because someone else pointed it out

Godzilla looks way too much like Reptar in that comic. I like the look of him in the new movie, large and in charge. He's pudgy and adorable.

Aziz is well read.

It's one of the reasons I love Aziz. He's so very informed about comics. He's forgotten more issues than I've read.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Aww, shucks guys
I still don't know much about Avengers comics

 

[Nicko-Ray]

Aziz the bookworm.

All hail Aziz all hail Aziz

I do like it as a foundation for the reboot, but I'm holding out for TASM2 really. That one will make or break the direction. I think it will make it, but we'll wait and see. Not long now.

Agreed. I like how FRWL is similar but different, bigger and grander. Check out both airport arrival scenes and how they differ, for example. The early ones really feel like sequels, with Sylvia Trench mentioning Bond going off to Jamaica, Bond telling 'Tilly' in GF he "had a case just like that one", etc.

Connery is my fave - I'm guessing yours too. And had an insanely good run with Dr No, FRWL, Goldfinger and Thunderball. One a year, 62, 63, 64, 65. That doesn't happen any more these days.

It was an amazing run. It's pretty shocking how fast Bond movies were coming out back then. Now we have to wait like 3 or 4 years.

Oh, and yep Connery is my fave. Obvious, eh? My second fave is between Craig and Brosnan. They both bring awesomeness to the table, but to many Brosnan suffers from bad writing and directing post-GoldenEye.

Contemplating a possible last in-theater viewing for Cap. Preferably in IMAX3D. Even though the 3D I don't find worth it, but IMAX I do.

I was freaking out. The instructor was putting all these various scenerios in the dummy (pretty I might add). I did ABC's at the start, it wasn't breathing and when I opened the air way it was and then I put an OPA but it rejected it (showing signs of conciousness) and I advised my assistant to use a BVM to assist breathing. I then did the primary survey (full body check) then it went into hypothermic shock, amongst many other **** the instructor was throwing at us. Man that was tough, the next two weeks are gonna be brutal. lol It's not easy doing it in the dark with a flashlight and trying to carry it down a slippery slope.

That's all part of training, bro. It's about making you aware of your mistakes and trying to stress you out so when the 'real thing' happens, you are able to overcome. Did you say you are a paramedic or an EMT? Not sure how long you've been doing that but in my experience, with time, practice and of course, experience, you become much more comfortable.

EMT man. Been doing that since last year. I've just never done this type of situation before, I just thought it's a skill I require since I wanna climb a montain one day, like Mt everest or kilimanjaro.

Just a year? Yeah, it takes a while to get comfortable. I was an EMT for 5 years and been a Paramedic for 12. Hiking is one of the activities I do to stay in good shape. There's a bunch of mountainous climbing areas here in Arizona that are great for that activity. Nothing like Everest though. lol. That'd be intense.

Really? It's a hard job I tell ya. First day on the job, I got a lady in labour at a house. Baby's head was out but blue coz the cord was chocking it. Was a sorry sight, basically ran out and threw up. Talk about making a first impression:/ I really wanna climb a mountain, it's just a dream of mine.

It's no joke, man. It's a very tough job. My first day as a Paramedic I had a child drowning in a swimming pool. It was horrible. Such a gut wrenching moment and one that I will never forget...much like the dozens of other calls that are now stuck in my memory. But alas, it's not for everyone--stick with it though and keep your chin up. It's the best job I've ever had and I love it.

It's fun when we all sit down with my co-workers and joke around but in the field it's a whole different story. Especially when you have RTC's, the worst one I ever had was when a school bus that collided with a tanker. You know when you had to do a triage survey? Yeah, I was first on seen and that day has haunted me man. We, EMT's, Paramedics play God in some ways sometimes, we choose who lives and who dies at some point. which sucks.

Yeah, joking around with coworkers is a great way to relieve the stress and get past the icky parts of the job. It's a necessity imo of how we are able to cope with the really dark times. Ya can't hold that stuff in...it'll beat you.

I don't think it's as much of "playing God" as it is, making a proper assessment and then making the call to tag them appropriately based on the findings. It does suck but it's better to treat the patients that have a higher percentage of recovering than those that are already circling the drain. Especially in a mass casualty incident where you are one of the first on scene and resources are extremely limited.

I know, I get attached and empathize a lot. But you are right, if it's a mass casualty, you have no choice but to treat the patients who have a higher percentage of surviving. I hope I never have to encounter a plane crash. That's just some of my fear man.

lol. The pranking is awesome.

There's nothing wrong with empathy. And there's nothing wrong with being emotionally invested in your work. Just make sure you use logic when it comes to the important decisions on the job and don't use your emotions as a guide. Especially in this business. It's a tough thing to manage sometimes but you'll make far more progress.

I always get pranked.

Empathy always clouds my judgement, I even visited one of the girl I treated quite regularly after saving her life (she was a diabetic). Got too attached and just let go. People sometimes just don't appreciate the work that we do,you always hear how doctor's and nurses do a great job saving lives (not discrediting them) but who got the patients to the hospital in the first place? I remember being laughed at school when I said I wanted to be an EMT and people were mocking me that I wanna drive ambulances for the rest of my life.

Of course you do, newbie. lol. t:

Well, it's your career choice so as long as you are happy in what you do, who cares what anyone else thinks.

Doctors and nurses deserve the credit they get. Nurses care for patients sometimes for years...without them we'd be at a loss.

I wasn't discrediting them at all but sometimes EMT's/paramedics do save a lot of lives too and I feel sometimes we aren't given enough credit and respect for it. Funny enough I wanted to do Nursing but couldn't get into it. But you're right, without nurses,we'd be at a loss. They know how to take care of the patients a lot more than we do.t:
