Yes Umbridge really inspires hatred. It was good that she got a satisfyingly bad end as well, no last-minute reformation or escape.

I think Natalie Dormer is going to be Cressida, so Stef Dawson is probably playing Annie.

I like this one. It reminds me of a 60s rock star or something.

This is what I want to do too. Only I'd like to write my own books as well, but I'm a realist enough to know that I'll need a day job.

You can turn his looks into a game though.

Someone probably burnt their dinner and then told themselves "I'll wash the dishes tomorrow." 5000 years later and it's still not done.

What does a German person look like?

The girl in the second photo looks like she has no feet. Creepy.

I was born in the mid-80s, so I guess I'm technically a 90s child, but it's still the 80s stuff I feel nostalgic about.
And now that I've got a kid of my own its mostly the 80s stuff I saw as a child that I want to share with him - Star Wars, Back to the Future, ET, Goonies, Princess Bride, Indiana Jones etc.
They don't…

Your work hours sound so blissful, that's the kind of life I fantasise about. Unfortunately there's no way to work around your sleep when you have kids so can't happen for me, at least not for a long time.

For the sun's light to be reflecting on the moon at angle so that we can see 50% of the moon - or just over that I think I've heard - wouldn't the moon need to be on the other side of the earth from the sun?

The moon keeps orbiting at the same speed as always though, so it doesn't spend more time in the sky [above a certain point on the earth - obviously it is always in the sky] it's just that it's there at night, therefore you can see it better than you can during the day.

I've really never understood this theory, because the moon doesn't get any bigger during a full moon, it's just that we can see more of it. It shouldn't affect its gravitational pull at all.

I agree, he has this way of just quietly stealing every scene he's in.

Really? Do you know why?

I'm sure they'll be able to fit plenty of 'head' puns into that half episode.

It looks so angry.

I know it's not sf/f, but still, this would be a big one for me. The ads of this show said "high school dramas", and it wasn't until a friend spent ages talking me into watching it that I gave it a chance. And it was completely not what was expecting.

None of the fight scenes in that film made much sense.

That's a cool sword. It looks very ergonomic.
