I can see a monologue about why John Constantine doesn't use e-cigs. Mostly boiling down to the fact that he doesn't trust something that isn't bad for him on some level.

Netflix and/or Hulu have the series for streaming or will have it at some point.

The Black Company

The Ori were basically the next logical step on a show where the writers didn't have any clear and cohesive plan for what they were doing. In part because the overarching plot wasn't really an overarching plot so much as it was a series of flavour of the week episodes that engaged with a much larger threat from time…

For some, incredibly stupid, reason HBO have had the trailer taken down on Youtube. Which is dumb on so many levels given that it was essentially free advertising for their show.

I concur.

I'd argue that the Vader vs. Luke were better confrontations - not fight scenes - because the films up to that point had successfully set the scene to the point where the tension was almost oppressive. The stakes in both those confrontations were so high, the emotional impetus behind Luke's actions so clearly defined…

I like to imagine that Capaldi has essentially internalised his Malcolm Tucker persona and that every time Moffat tries to get up to his old tricks he'll let the inner beast out.

I dunno. The entire Ori arc was pretty god awful.

True enough. The wonderful thing about working with a vast interstellar corporation though is that its entirely possible for them to effectively rewrite history as they see fit. Especially if things are happening months, if not years, away by space travel. After all if an entire space station gets wiped out and you…

The chin, nose and cheekbones look similar. Given some of the things that have been said as to the devs enthusiasm for the film it may well be that they actually have modeled the main character of that photo. Which would be kinda cool.

It is a scary thought. Though I'll venture to say that its far less likely to happen today due to the wide distribution of knowledge. Even if a world wide pandemic was enough to knock humanity back on its bottom for a couple of decades there is enough printed information in university libraries that even the more…

I imagine its almost entirely because the BBC is having to cut back on most shows funding due to a combination of less money from the license fees and the threat from the Government that it may lose even more. Much of which comes down to political pressures as the current government does not like the BBC, in part…

Literarily sounds like its closer to what I meant than I was able to come up with! =D

Jasper Fforde's Thursday Next series, starting with the Eyre Affair, pictured above(hopefully).

Personally I'm looking forward to the fifteen minute Freudian psychoanalysis session between Bilbo and Smaug. Not to mention the inter-forest Lacrosse tournament part of the film, all the rumours I've been hearing say that Lorien have a real shot this film, but of course Beorn's Beornings are rather beastly when it…

Given the way things are going I'd say its pretty much fait accompli that Nasa is dead.

Possibly, but remember the Med has the advantage of two entry points which are rather wonderful choke-points making the transfer of German U-Boats a real danger.

5. The main choke-point in North Africa was always the fact that the North African ports were woefully inadequate for the needs of the troops already there. Let alone reinforcements. To this was added the fact that the Italian Navy suffered a major blow at Taranto that they never truly recovered from, and which was…
