That really is mesmerizing. It's funny how you can make out Shatner's tone above the din. I liked listening for effects noises like phasers or the transporter, then trying to find the visual.

That Falling Skies promo poster makes no sense. In-story the aliens wouldn't print up a pro-harnessing promotional campaign, and in reality anyone who doesn't watch the show anyway isn't going to have any idea what that's a picture of.

How will Roland Emerich blow sh*t up if the world has already ended?

Lots of people went to see them. Those movies are fun.

I LOVE Chakotay. Part of it is the Native American thing. A bigger part is the Rodenberry philosophy, which I think Chakotay even more than Janeway upheld. One of my favorite lines in Trek is his. When abducted by the street gang-like Kazon, instead of trying to sound tough (which he was), he says "I am a gentle man,…

"...then she suddenly gets smitten with this completely bland nebbish who never seems to be into him at all...."

Not sure how I feel about Chiwitel Ejiofor. He's definitely got a powerful, regal presence, but does he have the physicality for the role?

He looks alien after he's "disfigured", not just burned up. I think either he really looked like that, and put on a more harmless looking human face, or the Dark Side corrupts you physically, like how Anakin's eyes turn yellow.

HE'S FROM AFRICA! He needs to pretty darn black!

When I read that Tony Stark's ex-girlfriend scientist was cast from The Help, I got excited that they might have cast a black woman ex-girlfriend scientist, then I googled. Oh well. I guess two black people in the Marvel movie universe is enough.

With so few good, prominent non-white roles available, it's criminal when one goes to a white actor.

Ian McDiarmid was a stroke of casting genius.

That is the first thing I would ask George Lucas about, given the chance. Was Sidious really "disfigured" (as he said) by the Force lightning reflected by Mace Windu? Did the Force lightning make him ugly because of the corrupting power of the Dark Side? Did it reveal a hidden alien nature? I've wondered so much about…

She's a super cute young lady, but I'm old enough to be her father. Also I like girls a little curvier than one usually sees on TV. Thanks though, I am going to watch that show one of these days.

He even has stitched together tentacles! It's beautiful.

I cannot believe someone hasn't made a joke about Jaden Smith's acting.

You are overthinking it- he aparently has been sent back in time so that by the present he will be old. She's going to sacrifice herself to go back to the same time and place to grow old with him, but that's assuming the Angels will send her to the same time and place (although I assume the place is right where…

P.S. don't listen to him! Send more Depp!

I think my reply to Neville Ross was kinda wrathful, I just hope he doesn't think it's at him. I know that I'm predictably cranky on this subject. I can't stop myself.
