  3. Not only could I not stop laughing, but my mother and sister made me replay it over and over again, because they couldnt get enough 🙂

  4. We found it last night and I think we played it about 20 times before we stopped.

    I think for me it is the Mama Panda’s reaction that puts it over the top for me.

  5. What’s weird is that in the first viewing, I thought it was the mother sneezing and the baby reacting. I thought I was certain that I saw the baby moving before the sneeze, so played it again, and saw that it was the baby who sneezed.

    I’m always amazed at how such tiny lifeforms can produce such loud noises.

  17. I wonder if that’s the same baby panda of which Lewis Black said “What the hëll is that thing?!?”, or something similar, several months ago. That would’ve been shortly after it was born and before it had grown fur; it really looked like some kind of pink, slimy, blind worm with legs at the time.

    But if it’s the same baby, he’s cute now. And loud, can’t forget loud.

    I was laughing for 15-20 seconds myself. I wonder what set him off like that.

    On a completely unrelated note, I liked the art in Wonder Man #2 more than the first issue since Currie didn’t make anybody really ugly except for that one murder victim, who was supposed to be ugly. Carol Danvers and Huan both looked good, Simon’s proportions were better (as opposed to his head being too large as I recall it being in the issue before this). I don’t particularly care for the way Hank McCoy is being drawn here though; he looks a little too cutesy, like the Beast in Beauty and the Beast. The Mandarin didn’t look very much like previous depictions of him either, but he didn’t look ridiculous or anything and that’s good enough for me.

    I also like how the story is progressing, getting Huan’s background and reading her conversations with Simon. I have a bad feeling that Huan is going to figure out a way around that device she’s wearing; it prevents her from hurting people, but not from smashing inanimate objects. It also evidently doesn’t stop her from throwing a pool ball at somebody, and while the ball didn’t hurt Simon I can’t help but wonder what would happen if she made a bomb about the same size and shape and hit him with that. Or if she purposely lost her balance and fell into Hank, causing him to stumble off a balcony (the collar might shock her, but she’d already be falling by the time it did). Or if she set a trap for somebody. I’ll have to wait and see.

    Just one question before I wrap this up. In this first issue, Simon was in an urban area and wondered if the weather was the result of global warming; after all, people had been talking about global warming for a long time and things hadn’t wound up as bad as had been predicted. But then in the second issue he mentions that there are NO glaciers left. So when we see the future Simon at the beginning of each issue, are we jumping ahead 10-20 years each time? Or are Simon’s musings in each issue all from the same year? Just wondering.

  19. Way funnier, in my opinion, was this: \newurl{http://www.collegehumor.com/video:1736163/. Whoever edited it is a genius.

  22. I watched this during a class lecture and almost fell out of my chair! and that was without sound at first!
