Well-done, I say! I imagine this was a fun and interesting challenge for the people involved, and also a lot of fun for the rest of the public!

That reminds me of the best line from the Rifftrax:
"Remember when Ray Charles used to to the Grammys and fight Diana Ross?"

It seems to me that moving FF to the realm of science adventure is Fox basically trying to do the Marvel thing, which is use these established characters to tell the kind of story that works best with them. What we saw was really just a teaser, with minimal information about how these characters will interact with one…

I prefer to think that the ads have been more "refaced" than "defaced."

Anything involving "squeaky bum time" is always going to be a hit-or-miss proposition, as it has a meaning outside of whovianism. It ultimately depends on how the recipient of the line feels about soccer/football in general, and Sir Alex Ferguson's Manchester United teams in particular. SAF used this term to refer to…

B:TAS should also be available on Amazon Prime streaming if I recall correctly.

That was what I always wanted, too! In my dreams, it would have been a companion piece that takes place in the same world as the book, with the characters from the book interacting as if they were re-telling stories they had already told for the book.

Depends on the country. England, for instance, has some pretty strict work permit requirements for players outside of the EU. To qualify, players must have appeared in a certain percentage of national team matches for a top-50 FIFA nation.

The whole "the league is losing money" argument could also come from the fact that, while some clubs are making good money (LA, Seattle, SKC, etc.), there are still others that are abject failures that have suffered some pretty bad financial hardships, whether due to on-field issues, or off-field financial…

In the immortal words of Henchman 24: "A beard is no substitute for a jawline, NO MATTER HOW YOU TRIM IT!"

That one line (and, perhaps equally important, Samuel L. Jackson's world-weary delivery of it) spoke volumes about Fury's life story.

Skrein could be playing T-Ray, maybe?

Nowhere was it established that the Enterprise couldn't go underwater. We just never happened to see a use-case for it on-screen.

I am reminded of John Landis on werewolves:

And who can forget this gem:

'Smart' and 'Good' are two separate things.

I always joke that Starfleet represents a future where literature nerds can become starship captains, where the ability to drop a literary allusion is crucial to one's ability to explore the cosmos.

I guess the question is: Are you a Rog, or a Davo? Personally, I like to think I'm a Rog who listens to Other Rog.

My problems with the Hobbit trilogy have more to do with its merits as a series of films than with how well it adheres to the source material. My central problem is that if you are going to split a story into multiple parts, you really have to make sure that each part follows a distinct interest curve. These films…

Come on, Burt Macklin, Dinosaur Wrangler is pretty much the best thing ever!
