I enjoy my Andriod phone, The Milestone slides out for a qwerty keypad as well as the touchpad. There is also a Milestone 2 that doubles up as a wifi hotspot, though I wouldn't mind having the R2D2 Phone LOL
So, I am playing in a 400 point, must have 1 Animal keyword, no keyword bonus tournament today. I still want to play some figures I haven't played before, and I still want to keep it in some sort of theme (cause that's how I roll). How does this look?
Beast Boy - 60
Impulse - 49
WL Superboy - 144
WL Donna Troy - 143
Total - 396
I have played 2 of these guys once before, but the other two will be fielded for the first time. If Beast Boy gets KOed, my opponent gets 120 points, and everyone else gets -1 attack and +1 damage for the rest of the game.
My strategy, which seemed to work well last time I played, is to TK BB Prime out, then have him run next to as many people as he can, then switch to the T-Rex for tie up. I will also use Bart as tie up while Superboy and Donna come in for the big hits.
Pizza: Love it in many forms (Chicago, NY, pan, etc.) just detest pepperoni. Love a good sausage pizza like good Chicagoans should.
Blues: Blues and Jazz are my favorite genres of music. I mean what true American doesn't like the first two recognized unique American Artforms?
Coasters: When it comes to coasters I am still the 13-year old kid that got to go to Great America for school trips. Nothing has ever beaten out Cedar Point by the way.
Chocolate: Love it. Once again married a pastry chef. Though I will fight someone over the fact that white "chocolate" is an abomination.
Candy: We, in general on these boards, are geeks. Candy is a food group for us. (Hot Pockets, Pizza, Candy, Soda...that's the 4)
Halloween: Always hated it after finding out in the 2nd grade that I was alergic to putting makeup on my face. Threw up in the middle of class. Went as a ninja the next 6-7 years because of it. If it weren't for the candy I would just skip it. Now as an adult I hate it since the bell rings every 30 seconds. No rest after long day at work. I am hoping in a few years it will once again be fun once I get to see it through my son's eyes.

Having cleared out some other work items I hit Rotten Tomatoes and saw it's was down to 24%. Looking through the capsule versions of the reviews the handful of positive ones seem to be locked on the effects and appear to be by people who have a generally low (as far as intellectual stimulation) view of comics and so find something that's mindless action to be just what one should expect.
I'm now to the stage where I'm wondering if I want to blow the time on Sunday seeing it. I likely won't make up my mind about it until Sunday, by which time I'll not only have seen several reactions from here, I'm sure, but I'll have spent the lion's share of two days surrounded by comics fans and will have gotten several ears full. If and when I hear a positive review I'll have to come up with a Rosetta stone/taste calibration system, to see if the ones who like it liked the first two Transformers movies or something. At that point I'll know whether or not to discount their thumbs-up for GL.
I only have a few minutes, so I'm going to just cherry pick a few of the following that I have quick answers for. The others are either generally not of sufficient interest or too complicated for a quick answer given the over-broadness of the category.

Agreed. A world without pizza would be a grim place.

For me it's like someone going over the moon about salt. Yes, I find salt extremely important -- vital to so many tastes -- but I only want a small amount of it at any time. For me, chocolate is an icing. A coating. Chips in vanilla or mint ice cream. Flavoring for milk so I can drink it without a gag reflex kicking in. That sort of thing. A little bit goes a long way. And all of that's just milk chocolate. The dark stuff I have much less use for. Dark chocolate must be a thin layer coating something with a strong flavor -- peppermint or coconut, for instance. Dark chocolate is best suited for appeasing women and junkies.

You forgot smelly, messy, and requiring considerable effort to properly keep - the degree of the same varying with the breed. Now, don't take from that that I don't like dogs, much less that I hate them. I do like dogs. I enjoy spending time with dogs. Someone else's dogs. Dogs I can visit and then go home from. Home, where I can (relatively) relax, because I have cats.
