So, if the Spider-Man movie has you drooling like a fanboy about new film adaptations of your favorite Marvel superheroes, you should know that there may be a new big-budget Fantastic Four movie around the bend in the next few years. However, few realize that an older low-budget Fantastic Four movie was made about a decade ago by Roger Corman, but was shelved and still remains officially unreleased. Thankfully, this hidden masterpiece has at least one fan site, a number of reviews, as well as a few purchasable copies floating out there to keep its memory alive.

| By adulthood, Mendeleev's periodic table of the elements
is firmly planted in a typical mind either as a tool for study or proof of mystical forces at work in nature. There are
alternative structures: some clever
and others using alternate media, extensions to the table providing nuclear structure, fermi surfaces, and
line spectra.
Still others are extraordinarily cross-thematic, merging chemistry with comic books, poetry or
haiku. But only the grouping-nature of the columns is retained in rejected elements,
condiments and beer.
Eventually the elements and the periodic qualities have been lost entirely, reducing the periodic table to a design template for topical lists of
funk and rock music,
comedy and TV shows,
famous mathematicians and presidents, even
SGI products. Soon a complete breakdown
of the scientific aspect yields no similarity to the original, becoming a
glorified table, a
marketing tool, or
hype itself.
There is mounting evidence of a conspiracy.
