Heroes may finally be making their way to the smaller screen, but you’d be hard pressed to find any show or character with a cult following that is almost as nigh invulnerable as it’s lead character. Back in 2001, that hero was known as the Tick, and despite a crippling lack of intelligence the big blue buffoon managed to save …

Although they were initially quite successful with MTV’s Clone High and Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs, it was really 21 Jump Street that put co-writer/directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller on everybody’s radar.

Torture is always going to be a tricky issue. On the one hand, it’s wrong, immoral and dangerous. On the other hand, nothing gets information out of a prisoner quicker than some shock therapy to the abdomen. Or lower. Tirture sucks however, when you happen to be completely innocent.
