It's always beets...

Saying that Netflix is giving the box for "free" is a wee oversimplification - the thing uses power and (at least internal) bandwidth. Someone has to be responsible for monitoring it, and you need to setup an arrangement so that when there is a problem tech people can troubleshoot either remotely, or locally - the…

The relationship between Christian Bale's character and his son - not to forget the son coverly protecting his father and sister? The puppy?

I'm the same. I kept on thinking I should get the Next plan, but would then do the maths and be perplexed as to why there did not seem to be any benefit.

It's Alan Rickman from this:

What's the difference between orbiting at a Lagrangian point and a geo-synchronous orbit? Does the latter use the former? If so, does that mean a whole lot of satellites are all "parked" in the same area?

I was about to post a link to the Collings Foundation as well. I've seen their "Wings of Freedom" tour twice and been on the planes, but never taken a ride in one. Definitely well worth seeing for anyone interested in planes. They're actually at a local airport this weekend so I'll have to find the time to check them…

Weird - I don't remember that, but then again there is a lot I don't remember from the late '70s...

Your comment had me confused until I checked the Wikipedia article and found out that it was called "Argo" in Greece: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Bat….

I would assume that by "analog" they mean non-digital, and therefore immune to the EMP field the kaiju was creating.

OMG...what is this movie? I feel I must watch it immediately!

So like "Charlies' Angels"? That would work for me.

Bill Nye - he was heard muttering "there can only be one".

I'll just leave these lyrics from the song here:

But when Ser Dontos gave the necklace to Sansa he said it had been his wife's, and her mother before her.

Just curious here, as I know virtually nothing about gymnastics (other than what I recall from watching "Stick It" with my daughter), but why is it "good reason" that they insist on ballet-inspired dance?

The first few seconds made me think of this:

I read many comments like this when Heroes was airing, and so bought all of the "Rising Stars" graphic novels so I could check it out for myself. While "Rising Stars" was a very good story, the similarities between it and Heroes seem very superficial to me - aside from some shared details or plot points that are very…

Wait...are you trolling?

OMG, thank you for pointing out that the plot point of the father going back in time and ended up disorientated / mentally disabled was not explained. I do not claim to understand the movie - only seen it once, etc. - but that totally made no sense to me.
