I don't think Sound Of My Voice was that great overall, but I liked the ending because it spent the whole movie making her look like a fraud and then dinged me at the end with doubt I wasn't entertaining before - not refutation, but doubt - and had the good sense to end there.

Entirely likely.

I'm really not seeing the sort of bitter fanboy/critic divide here that O'Neal alludes to; even the thread addressing this site's minority "rotten" review was pretty civil, especially compared to the sobbing anger I saw heaped on anyone who spoke of The Dark Knight with anything less than worshipful awe.

PIYW seems to get a lot of excitable love around here - which seems a little strange to me (I remember it as a likeable but slight episode) but it does make me look forward to re-re-revisiting it with y'all.

I don't say she's the Phoebe lightly - she'd lift right out. But, Phoebe was my favourite Friend - she's why I kept watching that goddamn show. I wouldn't keep watching Farscape just for Zhaan, but she's more of a presence and a sounding board for other characters than someone with a lot of agency of her own.

I absolutely loathed PKW, particularly the second half. There's a lot to get into about it, but as concisely and non-spoilery as possible - it sank into a lot of sentimental crap that the series had long done a good job avoiding, and story-wise tried swapping out things that we already saw worked magnificently in the

It's a great excuse to revisit the show at a slower pace than the season-devouring norm!

In my stoner-days intro to the show, Red Moya made me think they were in an area of unusually high gravity, and it still feels like that watching it, with all the slouching, dropping heavily to the ground, stomach heaving. Blue Moya just made me think being there would be terrifying more than annoying. (Poor Chiana

It's not so bad that she does mostly voice work - I miss seeing her too, but you know what everybody says about roles for women, especially as they age. It's a non-factor in voice work and I'm sure we'll be hearing her for many years to come.

Honestly, I'm so okay with no more Farscape being made that I wish Peacekeeper Wars hadn't been made.

If there's an upside to the accent, it's that it puts the viewer on edge throughout John's deception because it's so transparently phony to us, and it's a constant reminder that in all likelihood the real PK's are sensing something wildly off about it. So, tension increases.

Some good, much-appreciated Rygel comedy in this episode - the human actors have believably comedic exchanges with puppets, whether verbal ("And I…don't…laugh at them!") or physical (Zhaan planting/forcing a smooch on him in the tag scene).

She's the Phoebe.

Looking Glass is one of my favourite stand-alone shows - a couple of my favourite lines, hilarious pantomime from John & Aeryn, a good simple riff on the "parallel universe" idea played out in style. (needless to say, a stoner-days favourite)

Two horns down.

She isn't a vampire, she just has very fair skin!

Eh…the legitimacy of Jarvis's status as an AI doesn't really put the worms back in the can, especially since there aren't any precedents for him in the Marvel movies, I don't think. The (seemingly) unambiguous instruction about Extremis mitigates it a little, but the suits are still essentially killbotting on their

I legit saw it in Canada last night; I doubt the US gets any different from up here, and we got the Bruce Banner scene.

Loved the Mandarin twist.

Liked for the goat-blowing.
