We don’t always agree Ms. Anders but you’re an amazing writer and the main reason I come here. I wish you all the luck in the world on your future writing!

They’d never get a conviction anyway because she said under oath it never happened.

The cracks in series 5 storyline did erase the Dalrk invasion, and Amy had no memory of it.

I actually WANT Fox to keep X-Men. I think they do a great job with it and I like mutants being separate from the rest anyway. I wish they would sell FF and the FF villains back to Marvel though. Would be best for everyone.

Cersei’s church stuff felt a little rushed to me. Not in pacing but in lack of exposition and proper setup. As a non-book guy I barely knew what was happening half the time. The rest felt fine.

To be fair a good bit of that would be very hard to do because of the split between Paramount and CBS over rights and the fact CBS can’t even air a show within 6 or so months of a movie’s release. “Beyond” coming out pretty much guaranteed no TV special, but we are getting a prequel series in the prime universe next…

I’ve learned putting up with those relatively minor annoyances is what commitment is all about! ;)

Well refusing to watch movies with your wife is a pretty big deal. I do tend to watch stuff I really care about on my own though, not only to avoid her phone and occasional comments, but also so I can wear my kick-ass surround sound headphones! ;)

My sociological history classes were a long time ago, but isn’t it also true people then largely genuinely believed they were helping the “natives” and such? Katherine presents it as an excuse to be racist, but from what I was taught and read people of that time (mistakenly) thought they were helping “primitives”…

Yeah, I expect this crap from Gawker proper or Jezebel, but not io9. It’s been showing up on io9 more and more lately though, which is pushing me more towards straight news sites like Dark Horizons and Variety.

I think that more means that in the chaotic scrum his reach and pull wasn’t intentional battery or targeted contact. Also he mentioned she touched Trump in a similar fashion just before, weakening the case. That’s what I gathered hearing snippets on the radio anyway.

I’ve tried. She’s a very polite person usually, she just sees her phone as an extension of her arm and something no one else can regulate.

Love Lucy. Most of the hate for it seems to be based on wanting it to be something it wasn’t trying to be (an action or hard sci-fi movie). It was a fable.

I love that Gawker commenters woke up and realized today that not everything is offensive. Well, moat of them. Way to go on post and stars.

Love your post and love how perfect examples followed your post.

It looks cool. There was a lot of cool imagery in the Clone Wars stuff I watched too. It’s the scripts and tone I wasn’t into. It’s cool we’re into different things, I wasn’t trying to mock the show.

My wife is 27 and doesn’t understand why I ask her to not check her phone during movies or important TV. She insists she still understands what’s happening on the screen (though she doesn’t) and insists her phone lighting up shouldn’t bother me (though it does).

You told me to read some io9 recaps and I said I’ve read a few.

I’ve read a few. It sounds like the same kid’s cartoon I tried years ago and disliked when it was called Clone Wars. We all have different tastes. :)

You’re thinking WB sees those financially successful films as failures they need to wipe away because some internet warrriors are telling them they suck. I’m sure nothing could be further from the truth.
