More depressingly they didn't allow for Master and Commander to get a sequel by getting people pumped about daring do on in the gun-smoked seas of the age of sail. =(

I used to go to the park, as a child, where the young William Blake supposedly saw a tree full of angels.

That is an unfortunate truth. Plus of course even if he did appear the writers would have to tone him down an awful lot as otherwise he'd be an automatic Deus Ex Machina, solving problems in five minutes that would otherwise have taken an entire episode.

The number one historical figure I'd like to see in more Science Fiction is Mad Jack Churchill. I feel like it's a crying shame that he hasn't wandered into a Doctor Who episode and resolved it with the application of a broadsword.

Aye, to be honest I keep on hoping that now that the TV shows are dead they'll let someone reboot the series in book or comic form. Mostly because the TV series never really represented the scale of the Goa'uld/Jaffa forces arrayed against the SGC due to budgetary constraints. After all the Stargate is easily large…

The only hope I could see would be if someone in a position of influence and authority is a long time fan of the comics and decides to push for it. I shall hope, however futilely, that said person is working in Netflix's new production wing.

Aye, that would be one of the other problems of staying true to the original. Which has always had a clear social conscience and a point for making cogent points about the issues of the day and about politics, power and how usually it's the ordinary people who get shafted.

Alas I fear you are correct. Still maybe after NBC have dropped it Showtime or AMC will pick it up and partner with the BBC or one of the other British television companies (excepting Sky, obviously *spits to ward off evil*).

Though admittedly it's not as good as this one:

One of the few things the recent Robin Hood did that I enjoyed was this scene:

If it's actually a Constantine show, then awesome!

It could work. Say for example that a new power turns up a decade or so after the Dominion have been defeated around the same time Voyager returns. They're big, powerful and view the Alpha Quadrant as an interesting place to expand their sphere of influence. What followed would likely be a few border clashes but more…

No.

A 1963 film of the same name directed by Eiichi Kudo.

Isn't it also the case that the A-10 for day to day ground support is going to be replaced mostly by Drones from now on? With danger close fire support given by manned F-35s?

Zero hour contracts aren't terrible, when they're non-exclusive and you're working for a manager who knows to schedule well in advance and not take it for granted that you'll always be around to cover a shift at the drop of a hat.

After the first few mass riots see the masses dragging the rich from their homes and butchering in the streets I imagine the politicos will swiftly realise what the Roman Patricians knew for a very long time, you can become very wealthy from slave (or in this case: robot) labour, but the plebs will still outnumber you…

I'd presume that an Animagus takes on some aspects of the creature they can transform into. So if Hippogriffs were particularly long lived then he might too become so.

Ah yes, but it also has the redoubtable Mrs Vimes. Who admittedly is covered in soot from time to time, after all Dragons can be rather combustible creatures when nervous.
