“Life was such a wheel that no man could stand upon it for long. And it always, at the end, came round to the same place again.” ― Stephen King, The Stand

The first thing I thought of when I saw the landscapes was Hardware (1990). It could really benefit from a new trailer cut in a modern style.

It's almost a direct word for word quote from the novel written in 1968.

For sure, if someone tried to make this show now with actors who hadn't lived through the experience, well that would be a whole different (and much more questionable by far) enterprise - not saying that being through an experience in and of itself makes you an expert or spokesman on it.

[EDIT: Oh, I guess you're probably meaning more about the Indiana Jones trilogy, aren't you?]

Well, he did end up making an impression on Spike's fist, as Spike certainly gave him one hell of a beating.

I hate to break it to him but Faith's moved to London and last time I looked, I haven't seen him there.

"You've picked one of my favorites."

Her father's name is Bennet.

"It’s almost too perfect an analogy that in the world of Z Nation an ostensible cliffhanger turns out to be a third of its cast literally falling off a cliff …"

I guess I must have got that mixed up with something else. I've seen some fairly convoluted explanations for a few different unrelated things recently. I try to just treat the MCU movie universe +/- TV shows (optional expansion pack) as its own separate thing.

I thought in the comics that there multiple Ancient Ones and that Tilda Swinton just happened to be playing one of them (in this case, created for the movie but there have been others) - and I believe the character was actually originally some sort of non-human being put into a human/various human bodies over time?

I guess if you go too far down that road, it doesn't lead anywhere good. If you really wanted to split hairs, why didn't the T-1000 just bond to the back of the police car it was trying to smash its way into? It could have then just oozed into the back seat and then that would have been it, mission over - they…

Potentially interesting point to ponder, I argue that the best rendition of John Connor was in The Sarah Connor Chronicles. Not as the teenage John Connor played by Thomas Dekker, who did do a good job playing someone who'd outgrown a lot of the behaviour that has clearly divided up here in this section but the adult…

Yes on Anton Yelchin (he's on record in interviews as working really hard to get that right), I didn't feel that so much with the T-600s as T-600s. The description of them as by Michael Biehn in T1 as not being convincing because of the rubberised skin, well the The Sarah Connor Chronicles was spot on with what it…

I knew what the scene was before even looking at it. What makes it even more reprehensible is that at first, all those bystanders think he's being attacking and are actually coming to help him and his actually turning on a dime and being so gleeful about their being maimed … it's a horrible scene all around that also…

I watched The Story of Riki on a DVD player on a train. My brother was giving me some strange looks on that trip, that's for sure. I also saw Charlie's Angel: Full Throttle on the trip (co-incidentally Robert Patrick was in that too.) I swear that script was a mess and of the two films, that was the one which gave me…

"As The Advocate reported earlier this year, the movie took over the [Louisiana] State Capitol for several days, filming in the governor’s office and the House and Senate chambers."

Well, how's this for some well timed co-incidences:

Continuum had some of the most terrifying antagonists I'd ever seen in TV or film, especially among the Liber8 contingent. I think Garza and Verta actually scared me. The fight between Rollins and Verta in the penultimate episode was the hardest of hard men trying to kill each other (given that was about the sixth…
