    So now we have to deal with F***ing WITCHES?!

    Is this Traction League concept art?

    God help us all.

    Now playing

    You missed it...you utterly missed the one actual "lesson"....nothing in this world can you trust, not men, not women not beasts, but steel, you can trust.

    surely you don't mean the screwfly solution?

    Oh you'll hate them....

    ...actually, a female fellow student in my graduate school history class has been clinically diagnosed with this condition (though in her case it is congenital or something, not the result of head trauma); she actually goes to NYC medical schools and such to get MRI's so they can try and understand the condition

    ....as if a retcon in the final year of the franchise counts; I think the writers just forgot that the original series said they didn't evolve there.

    *Vulcans* have inner eyelids, which Spock directly compares to the human appendix, as a vestigial throwback.

    Slow, stand-alone episodes in which the banality of everyday life being evil is the source of extreme depression?

    Now playing

    Max Brooks seemed to really like the script when he talked about it at SD Comic-con.

    Chronicles of Riddick had a line where Kyra strongly implied he had lied; she said that "you couldn't get a shine job...not for 100 Menthol Cools, not for *anything*"

    Oh crud, it seems that their World War Z has abandoned the flashback-based format of the book, for showing it all chronologically....and that's our BEST case scenario.

    The transistor technology advanced, but the cooling technology, or materials sciences needed to build room-temperature superconductors, etc. hasn't caught up; they're inter-related and inter-reliant.

    *cough* The Secret Adventures of Jules Verne *cough*

    My running guess is that his character is paralyzed, and they hooked him into a harness thing via the interface apparently drilled into the back of his head, to allow him to move; they've actually been doing research trials into doing this with real life paralyzed people.

    What are Vestas if not refined Sovereigns, slightly smaller but used as a testbed for a lot of new tech?

    I know many people liked this show, but I really disliked it since the pilot and never followed it. I think the original idea of making it a cartoon might ironically have made me had more empathy for it. And I realize it had time to develop the characters more.

    1 - I've liked everything I've seen

    The Intrepid-class is a glorified science vessel only one fourth the size of the Galaxy class.
