Pretty close.

Seeing SyFy is owned by NBC technically... why doesn't NBC put Blood and Chrome on national television? All the curse words are already frakking bleeped out. Oh wait, NBC is a complete mess of a company. BTW AMC has managed to finance their shows by partnering with Sony for digital distribution rights. (and not…

I think you mean "Shumo Shience".

I understand... but I think PJ is a little busy right now. :) Who knows, he might make a video blog if he catches wind of this, he's usually game for some fun like this.

Good point, and Gimli was dumbed down so much in the LoTR trilogy that he seemed weaker than he was in the books. The little guy was a bloody battle machine in the books.

Considering GRR picked mostly LOTR characters to win, why would JRR need defending? Still I'd take Aragorn over Jaimie, considering Ned put up a pretty decent fight against him. And I didn't ever consider Wargs especially intelligent, I think the direwolves would take that match-up. Not sure Gimli could take the…

Raccoon armed forces.

Denethor was a Middle Earth Walternate.

I really don't get why they passed on this. Caprica was probably too conceptual for them but this is straight up badassery from the get go. God if only AMC would buy the rights for this, they could do it on the cheap.

I would totally watch that. Nick Cage's Big Daddy Adam West Batman, with Oprah unleashing bees upon the hapless populace.

World War Bees would be more entertaining. Fail.

Also... Roald Dahl wrote the screenplay to You Only Live Twice.

I think Brazil and Robocop make good bookends as dystopian versions of Big Government bureaucracy (read Democratic dystopia) and Republican Privatization Dystopia. I saw both the Summer of 85 and pretty much defined my views of our dualistic 2 party system. Both can create frustrating, nightmarish worlds taken to…

Unfortunately all of those "movies" together were probably cheaper to make than the CG alone in this pilot. Sucks because this looks amazing. Not even going to pretend to hope they might consider making a series if there's a positive response. The Nielsens are just so off target, they really need to see there's a…

MOAR

You sir, win the day.

I could easily watch 2 hours of this.

We may harness their power, but they'll eventually be hungry... for human flesh.
