I'm just gonna leave this here...

More things wrong than last week, but less irritatingly so. I give it a 3.

I wish I could remember the details, but there are workarounds for the whole "Wormwood is terrible for crossovers" thing. For starters, there's a city in one of the South America books that's essentially a D-shifted chunk of Wormwood that still counts for keeping symbiotes and the like ali...

Those are both of the things I thought of when yelling at the screen about how to do what this episode was trying to do ("human bodies are ridiculously permeable to radio waves, at least give them a Bluetooth headset or something to receive the signal!"), so I guess we just see things diff...

Anyone else get the distinct impression that Moffat has no clue how wi-fi (or any form of radio waves, for that matter) actually works? Cause the whole hacking people through wi-fi thing was just too much for my suspension of disbelief.

Blue Lantern - Captain America. I've seen pretty much a million other ideas over on RPGnet, but that was the one that really stuck with me. ETA: oh, and going on the idea that Green Lanterns are defined by "the ability to overcome great fear", Arnold Judas Rimmer for Green Lantern... but o...

Chick flicks in general I tend to revile for being utterly formulaic and I would challenge anyone out there to name one, especially the males, to name one they actually enjoyed. Among many others that I can't remember at the drop of a hat... 10 Things I Hate About You and 2 Weeks Notice . No, they'...

Paraphrasing someone from a different board where the same idea came up: do you really want to let 4chan program your sexbot?

Could Superman really do that? It seems to me that a person's fist isn't exactly a sealed environment; the coal would just crumble and squeeze out of the little cracks and spaces between his fingers and his palm. Also, even if we presume he can create an airtight seal between all of his fingers and...

Lucky for me to have the day off then. Now, I'm a little behind on The Blackest Night itself (mostly I come here and spoil things for myself and at some point I'll go round up everything since The Blackest Night #2 and get properly caught up), so my apologies if this isn't news at all, but... that s...

How am I the first person reporting this? Biweekly follow-up announced!

I've known waaaay too many seemingly innocent people who would sell their own grandmothers for a handful of Hydrocodone. Pending any actual proof that it wasn't, I'm calling it an overdose. :? Hydrocodone overdose wouldn't cause a heart attack. Yes, but if you follow my (ok, pretty flawed) assumpti...

You know, for all its general horribleness, Enterprise was actually pretty decent about a few things on this list. IIRC, there were several episodes where various officers (particularly the captain) had to be called to the bridge when they were off-duty... and also at least one instance of gravity f...

With apologies to the MasterCard people...

Finally getting the Big G on screen: made my day...
with just the right song for his arrival: even better...
and picking up a ball that Toho dropped twice: fantastic!

The look on Raven's face: priceless.

I'm with the peanut gallery: Coverfield gets its... uhh... whatever is attached to whatever part of it is the ass... kicked and kicked hard. For the strangest reason, though, the highlight of Cloverfield's debut was seeing it gets bombed by B2s. :D I have no clue why that made my day... I would gue...

To avoid that me too feeling, I present three brand new (if rather unfeasible) options. 1: head for the South Pole. Once you get far enough from the coast, Antartica is pretty much the deadest place on the surface of the Earth, IIRC. 2: whether you build your own rocket or repurpose somebody else's,...

This is rather tricky... I mean, I've seen a lot of really bad movies with high levels of WTF content ( Deadly Friend for one, Zardoz might be another, though it's so bad it's awesome). The absolute weirdest is probably some film that confused the living daylights out of me for a week or two and was...

For Medieval Japan (not European knightly, but some of the ideas can carry over), Ran is Kurosawa's adaptation of King Lear . Betrayal and war in Japan. Um... Lion in Winter . It sounds like a finely-crafted, dramamtic and moving film. I'm not sure that that's what I'm after right now. I would rath...

No discussion of what went wrong with the American Godzilla is complete without mentioning the design leak fiasco.

As to the OP... well, if it happens, I hope it doesn't suck.

Compelling characters? WTF? The 13th warrior was boring and an insult to the very idea of the vikings. You know, freaking neanderthals? EDIT: Sorry for sounding like a raging madman. It is just that whenever I hear of that movie, I fly into some kind of blinding rage. I'm confused: are you saying V...

I never liked this as a kid, or that other book series... what the hell was it... something about time... Ah! A Wrinkle in Time. They gave us these books to read but I never cared for them and could just never get into them at all. I had my grandfather's copies of the LotR trilogy and The Hobbit th...

Actually, one time Bugs was in a cartoon drawn by Elmer Fudd. The Bunny never stood a chance. :P That was just an inferior retread of Duck Amok though. On topic: well if Batman counts, I'm saying Freakazoid. I'm a little less sure if it has to be one of the "classic" characters. Wile E. C...

What, no Rover Dangerfield?

As Nitram said, it had Amazing artwork and fantastic animations. Who needs Hard Science in a Space-Yarn? It's a great little fun movie that may not have done will in theaters, but is a great DVD to have around. If Nit or I see one of the Disney channels is playing it, dammit, we're setting the TV f...
