But i guess the next question becomes, does body count outweigh brutal violence. Just because the person didn't die, doesn't mean they didn't live through some seriously screwed up $%&. I mean rambo, or the expendables, can mow down a bunch of guys with a machine gun, but is that more or less violent than one man…

I wonder if its just science fiction, or ALL fiction. Honestly most of my favorite modern writers are male. However it wasn't like i wandered into the store purposely looking for only male writers; it just happened to work out that way. Every time I look over the shelves, the books that sound the most interesting…

you know Zooey Deschanel isn't that bad of an actress (i enjoyed her in hitchhiker's guide, 500 days of summer and she's amusing on new girl), but clearly she needs direction to give a great performance and she did NOT get that from M Knight in "The Happening." I'm crossing my fingers right now that Will Smith can…

not really. Check out a Roger Corman film, like Jackson County Jail or Caged Heat from the 70s sometime. They are DISTURBING.

soooo, we're remaking Mann and Machine? Oh dear. Well, let's hope this one pulls it off.

OMG, someone else remember this show! I watched every episode because i was so desperate for sci-fi back then lol. God, i wonder how terrible it truly was?

I didn't want to point it out, but yeah. Nothing like people in glass houses throwing rocks. Kind of reminds me of how Craig T. Nelson stuck his foot in his mouth a few years back. You just want to say, "do you hear yourself right now?" or in Miss Morrissey's case, "did you see what you just did there?". Clearly…

Goldfinger girl - smothered with gold, Bond'w wife Tracy (played by Dame Diana Rigg aka Mrs. Peel from the avengers tv show) - shot in the head while they're out driving about, grace jones - blown up after sacrificing herself for bond (despite being the bad girl at first), honestly there's a ton of them. It's sort of…

and now we're beginning to really lose our korean war vets. My Aunt's husband recently passed away from cancer at the tender age of 83. I had no idea that he was a korean war vet (he was her second husband and has only been a part of our family for a little over a decade, the conversation never really came up). At…

wow, time for new glasses. I first read that "Spock must die" by James BOND.

ah well then, mystery solved there. Still want to know where that monkey got that jacket. Hmm i guess some things we'll never know ;)

Dear Syfy,

true, very true. After all Gary Mitchell's "condition" would be something that Khan would appreciate. But Mitchell gets such a god complex that i doubt Khan would be able to control him and THAT wouldn't appeal to Khan.

heh, so very true. We are all happily grasping at straws, aren't we? And for the record her hair is ALSO the reason why I'm leaning that way. Although benedict's comment about "is there anything you would not do for your family?" makes me think he might be Kahn. The Sybok thing was just an interesting twist that i…

i think they're considered exotic here too, but you can get around that with proper paperwork. Not that you should. I certainly believe we should leave it to the zoo keepers after the crazy guy in what...ohio?... let all his animals loose and the cops had to destroy them all.

was it a particular type of endangered monkey? I'm not sure why they weren't allowed to keep it (if they had a license). There are tons of monkey handlers in the states, although they need to have a license in most states. I'm not saying that's a good thing, mind you. Monkeys do NOT make good pets, but i kind of…

lol!

exactly, this will NEVER be a problem. SIGH. Later they'll hook it up to TV ad we can just stare at the wall like zombies while we watch a tv show on our eyeballs. Creepy.

how the heck did i not think of Sybok and what's to say that vulcan ears are a dominate feature, right? I suppose you could have one kid look more human and the other more vulcan (although sybok didn't have the same mother, did he? I thought that was the whole problem with him, he was the cast off son. Which is…

come on some of these weren't actuall BRAAAAAMs, but just orchestra brass sections making a louder noise. that said, hollywood does seem to love it even more than before (which yes, it did exist from before). Oh well at least it's not the horrible piano from the firm. I remember being a 14 year old in the theater…
