I used to be really skeptical about Awkwafina because, well, just look at that name! That doesn’t look like a serious performer’s name, it looks like some teen pop starlet trying her hand in acting cause she thinks it’s gonna be easy. Read more

Well, we know they are adapting the first arc because they cast David Thewlis (whom I’ve loved since Dragonheart) as John Dee. They’ve also cast Gwendoline Christie as Lucifer, so the issue where he gets his mask can be adapted pretty much as is. And while they don’t have John Constantine, they cast Joanna… Read more
Aaaah, but I wanted the blockbustery version! Pulp adventure Lovecraft is my favorite flavour of Lovecraft! Don’t get me wrong, I like more faithful takes like Colour Out of Space, but mixing Lovecraft with Indiana Jones always end up for a super fun experience. So colour me disappointed if the Mountains of Madness we… Read more
So I had never had the chance to read Sandman before, so in preparation for the show I read the first story arc i.e. the first 8 volumes. And I didn’t like it much? Read more
No. Thrawn is a villain through and through. And that’s what he was in his original trilogy. He might have been polite and affable and cool, but he was a bad guy. Read more
I wouldn’t put too much stock in Holland soundibg exhausted in interviews. Press tour are exhausting, and many actors hate them. You spend days and days on the road, doing dozens of interviews a day where you are asked the same questions over and over. Now, they are paid handsomely for it, so I don’t exactly feel bad… Read more
That’s what I was going to say too. It really depends on the game. Some games are clearly trying to star as close to real humans as possible - those should probably be live-action. Mass Effect, Halo, Uncharted and my darling Horizon Zero Dawn are example. Read more
What’s a gammon? Read more
That’s the first thing that came to mind too. “While you were still learning to SPELL YOUR NAME, I was conquering galaxies.” Read more
Wonder if these pets aren’t associated at with their heroes until the end of the story. Read more
He’S been a great dane too. His breed is inconsistent, so I don’t mind that changing as long as it’s not a toy breed. But the personality, the voice, the backstory is all wrong. This is not the Bat-hound.
As someone already said, while the book and movie are separate (though not as much as you may think - Crichton worked on the screen play of the first one), it doesn’t change the fact that the “theory” doesn’t come from fans, it comes from the creator of the whole franchise. Read more
To be fair to you, the headline and the rest of the article give you absolutely no indication he’s talking about the prologue. io9 did a really piss-poor job of contextualizing the quote here.
I’m not sure you can call it a “fan theory” when the original book devoted pages and pages telling you that exact thing. I quote: Read more
Oh wow. Way to absolutely kill any interest I had for this the moment the other pets showed up. When it was just Krypto it was funny, if a bit generic. But not only, as I suspected, is Kevin Hart not funny, as usual (great if you like him, but he just gets on my nerve), but this isn’t Ace the Bathound. None of these… Read more
Ace is absolutely not faithful to any comic or cartoon version I know of. He has superpowers, for a start, but usually the whole thing is that Ace takes himself very, very seriously. He’s hypercompetent...but also kind of an asshole. Like Batman. Read more
They never really discuss age, but being a camp councillor myself, i would put them all in the grade 10-12 range. Read more
I agree with everything, though I do think some dinosaurs might have caused a problem. Read more
Apprently, the Telltale Jurassic Park game picked up that plot thread.
We might have trouble with the smaller ones that can hide. The Compys in particular could become an endemic problem of the region - small, fast-breeding scavengers are a perfect invasive species. And Blue, the Raptor, might kill a few pets and even a kid or two before we get her, like alligators sometimes do. But… Read more
