Auf dem Zaun

Die Meßwerte liegen deutlich außerhalb der Skala.

I just watched the 1998 Nick Fury TV movie with David Hasselhoff, and contrary to all my expectations I LOVED it. It was great fun to watch, had everything a film about S.H.I.E.L.D. needs: the helicarrier, LMDs, HYDRA and little espionage movie gimmicks. Val (whom I don't really know much about yet but will soon). And David Hasselhoff can actually act - he did a great job with his role as Nick Fury, down to the details. Of course the film was a bit trashy; the German villains were hilarious (in a good way!) But I never would have thought that I could believe Hasselhoff when he'd try to pretend to be Colonel Fury, and I did. I forgot about that wrecked actor who is mostly looked down upon and regarded as a joke and I saw Nick. (It scared me a bit, really.) The other characters were also quite believable.

Plus: FUN!!! :)

Before we watched the movie we walked to the Dönerladen (what's it called?), so I had lots of time to think about nutty crossovers. My favourites are:

1. UNIT vs. S.H.I.E.L.D. (UNIT loses to SHIELD in a second, only to discover that all SHIELD members have been replaced by Live Model Decoys which the Doctor can switch off.)

2. The Tsubasa and xxxHolic characters travel to Marvel-universe. I didn't explore this one further, or maybe I did, but I forgot about it. Yuuko should meet Doctor Strange, of course, to see who's the Sorcerer Supreme, and to talk about not being able to intervene. Oh, and I think there was something in my head about the Doctor coming to the Marvelverse - ah, yes! I remember --

3. Daleks vs. Doombots. Still taking bets. What do you say, who will win?
