I wanted the older cast in the movie, but as the Alec Guiness Obi-Wan of the story. Not a glorified cameo but prominent secondaries.....but not "the main characters", that's a bit odd. This late along.
He grew a beard in prison but apparently cuts it when he returns to King's Landing (even though he kept it in the books). They didn't include him shaving his head.
The cosmic ballet goes on.
Technically I think its in the middle of the Greenland ice shelf, and while there is a race over polar resources I don't think Russia outright claims parts of Greenland. Moreover, neither does Canada.....it's.....technically part of Denmark, but they had a vote just a view years ago so they're semi-autonomous from…
While the women characters didn't always pass the Bechdel test, I take it with the grain of salt that as CDC disaster response team members, they're *always* facing life-or-death situations - they're always in an Ebola-infected village or something, so I take their personal life bickering as I would doctors on a…
I was surprised at how good the premiere was. Not "great", but solid. Good pacing, I honestly liked the acting, reasonably good internal plot logic (so far). No major problems.
The thing is that I'm annoyed about SyFy's hype machine that "It's the next Ron Moore project!".....first, I've lost fall faith in Ron…
Ape has killed ape.
That movie scared the hell out of me.
I like his Demeter. Granted, Tolkien describes the Valar as taking on basically humanoid forms, but I like how he made her like a vague outline of a centaur without prominent features - making her more of a *concept* of "nature" rather than a character.
Fine acting of, at times, overwrought scripts.
It isn't, from a plot mechanics point of view, the absolute worst explanation I can conceive of - if they don't want Greek mythology in their continuity (think Marvel Ultimate or another "no magic" continuity). The problem is that Wonder Women stories have always had magic and Greek myth deeply ingrained into them.
Besides being set on space stations and involving realpolitik, and ultimately galactic wars, they really weren't similar shows at all. Anymore than "space operas" of the genre are vaguely similar. Some friends become enemies, some enemies become friends, backstabbing and plot twists, shake well. They only got…
I did mean Universal Century, hands just aren't working. Maybe I have autofill on or something...
Speaking of which, contrary to that forum poster's view, Anno has expressly said that he thinks he got it "perfect" the first time - Rebuild isn't fixing things he thinks he got "wrong". The problem is that he thinks idiot fanboys didn't get his message - making Rei Ayanami dating sims and idol-culture despite the…
Hi, I'm V. The one that runs the Evangelion panels. Here's me interviewing Spike Spencer:
Gendy Tartakovsky's Star Wars: The Clone Wars microseries
Silver Surfer: The Animated Series
One of the best comic book adaptations ever made. Cancelled after only one season, not because of a drop in quality, but because Marvel was going bankrupt in the late 1990's (due to the Comics Crash of '93). All of their animated projects abruptly stopped.
It's such a great…
Do Miniseries count? I'm fond of the Scifi Channel adaptations of Dune/Children of Dune, which combined last about 12 hours.
I think it is unfair to list "the entire franchise" given that there are seven or so alternate continuities - I DO think you can sponsor a specific continuity, such as the main "University Century" — arguably, Zeta Gundam (the second series) was the best they've ever made.
Though as many of you know, Double Zeta (the…
