Maybe little girls look up to Amy cause she isn't 98 pounds and starving herself and is still a model. Maybe she just makes perfume."

It's a good point, except that they obviously DID detect the neutrinos from 1987A in 1987. Unless it fired out two bursts of neutrinos, they didn't have to be looking in 1984.

Have a look at the link I posted a little bit upthread.

I would have liked to have seen an Alien 3 done the way it was intended by Vincent Ward - the prison planet was instead going to be a monastery made of wood (in space). Kind of like The Name of the Rose with xenomorphs. And it would have let Ron Perlman show up one film earlier.

Think more several dwellings arranged within a larger enclosure for animals and crops. Little self-sufficient farmsteads with extended families living in each.

Alas, I'm not too sure - it doesn't ring a bell, so possibly I missed out on it. Chorlton and the Wheelies was weird 70s British TV at its finest(?) though.

Nice.

Archaeologists studying them in the pre-Google Earth era speculated that they could be the remains of houses or cemeteries. Kennedy said that neither of these explanations seems to work out well.

Heh - I'd have to translate the interview for them, I think - he has a very particular Scottish accent even I have trouble understanding :)

No biggie, but there was also a female pilot in Episode 1, as I recall. Played by the same actress who played the wife of Connor Macleod (of the clan Macleod).

It shouldn't feel like a spinning thing, really - the only reason you get sick on spinning things on Earth is because you already have gravity acting on you and the added directional force throws your inner-ear out of whack. Centrifugal (centripedal?) force on its own should just feel like normal gravity.

Yeah, they tried something similar with my uncle when he lost a thumb - it didn't take, so they broke and reset the bones of his index finger so it opposed his other fingers - you can't even see the scarring.

Not so much that as that the Doctor knew both Amy's couldn't travel together with him - he half-knackered the TARDIS just getting them into the different time stream, remember - and paradoxes don't run that well with the TARDIS.

Well, with a leather waistcoat like that, I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner...

I think he means as in the film A.I. - they're not looking to be freed and by "controlled" it sounds to me like he means owned and directed and managed by their corners - it's like an F1 car standing on legs, I think.

Unfortunately, Max Brooks doesn't seem to have much influence over what's going to be in the film or not - he did a signing in Glasgow whilst the filming was taking place and said that he really had no idea what would be in it.

Sounds like Cherry Falls crossed with a Neil Marshall film...

Depends how many Cure fans like steampunk - the Ultras have to come from somewhere, after all.

I'll need to ask for a diagram (with maybe a Powerpoint presentation as an additional aid) from my other half's pet astrophysicist, but I get what you mean - cheers for the explanation.
