Heartily recommend The Investigation - A Danish (for obvious reasons) adaptation of the Kim Wall case. The murderer is never once depicted, heard or even named throughout the entire series and it starts when the police open the case - no flashbacks.

Only ‘cos Ashley’s rampant xenophobia made her stand out.

Nice to see a nod to Dredd with those gatlings being fired through residential walls (towards the end of James Daly’s work). Still a bit sad they cut the metro system from the released game, would have been nice to see the city from a consistently elevated position...

Don’t know if it’s been mentioned further downthread, but another reviewer mentioned that the Braindance sequences can trigger seizures in epileptics - possibly because the tech for Braindancing seems similar to that used to deliberately trigger grand mal seizures by neurologists.

Well, he may have left the Stones, but he didn’t get arrested or charged with anything. And they waited 5 or so years into the relationship before kicking him out. Hell, Maxim put him in their list of top 10 “living sex legends”. The controversy wasn’t that hard to bear, I’m sure.

I never understood how Bill Wyman got a pass even though he started dating Mandy Smith when she was 13/14 and he was 47... weird aside is that his son dated her mother for a couple of years. So many people in music are trash it doesn’t surprise me any more.

It’d be really good if articles like this didn’t use the words “Brits” and “English” as interchangeable synonyms - Britain is England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland whilst England is, well, England.

Oh god, how do I begin to describe the joys of peritonitis? I still find it genuinely difficult to look at a jar of mint sauce without being a little bit ill.

There was Eve Salvail in The Fifth Element...

They also torpedoed the General Belgrano, as it was leaving the exclusion zone. Ironically enough, the Belgrano was a refitted US warship - the only one to survive Pearl Harbor without sustaining significant damage.

After listening to both, I’d rather it was David Hyde Pierce doing David Hyde Pierce rather than Nolan North doing him. And I actually prefer Dinklage for some lines. YMMV.

I got a chest right beside one of the wrecked ships.

No wonder the Kaiju keep invading Japan, they know their generals can't even sew their insignia on the right way up (0.25 into the trailer).

I like Cameron Stewart's reaction to it:

Holy shit - it's the Corinthian!

I'd like to think the supernaturally-animated marshmallow was not inherently evil, but that the animating force was. That way, I got to eat all the marshmallow (5 second rule allowing) with none of the guilt.

Thought you might have mentioned Matt Fraction - especially after this io9 story? http://io9.com/5941910/adorable-kaiju-birthday-party-has-five+year+olds-smashing-a-cardboard-city

Don't remind me - my sister and I were watching when the TV signal cut out just at the moment they had their encounter on the road. Creeped us out a bit.

Exactly why my hope faded at that point.

Hang on, hang on - LIFE SIZE? Woah. I'm surprised for never hearing of this one before. Very cool.
