Lost Ark, from Raiders of the. It's great because it melts antagonists.

I'm partial to the blue Malibu from Repo Man.

Duh

One to rule them all.

I mean seriously?

Wasn't there similar ideas about harvesting gold by growing trees in areas that where too little saturated with the metals? I think I remember reading...oh. Found it. Eucalyptus trees gather gold in their leaves, gathering it from the soil.

I think it was fundamentally different, but that may just be my wishful thinking. I'm one of those people who wished the southern gothic was of a Lovecraftian horror bent. I wanted Carcosa to be a dimension of madness. Given the narrative, they did a good job in constraining my disappointment and I appreciated it…

Either Mike Carey's Felix Castor books, or Kate Griffin's Matthew Swift novels. BBC are doing Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell, and I heard they were looking at doing Rivers of London, so there's hopefully a chance they'll do those two.

The other day I saw a message-turned-meme that said, "On a scale from 1 to invade Russia in winter, how bad is your idea?"

I don't see the two big ones:

I expected something along the lines of this when I read the title...
