I can help with the why it didn’t happen, as a huge fan of War of the Worlds, I watched a documentary a while back and in it they said that Ray wanted to adapt it and took it to his friend George Pal, they sat with studios and there was interest but then George decided he wanted to do it a different way and so took…

Say what you will about how good or bad the show is (personally I think it’s the stand out of the entire block of DCTV universe with arrow now the least) they seem to be doing pretty good with the comic characters to screen design. I was insanely excited at the end of last season smiling as he changed time and saying…

You know how I’d have done it if I was writing the script? I’d have had a moment when Sulu is heading to a planet surface or somewhere dangerous and he is taken aside by another member of the crew and he says something mushy like “Be careful. I want you back safe” and then they kiss and he walks off. It would be a way…

Thanks for the reply. I always thought about the radiations and all that, it is one of the reasons I’m doing a lot of research into things like Man on Mars, the Moon (apparently Moon dust over a lunar base would be a defense against solar radiation...apparently) and think that at some point in the far future we’ll be…

Okay Gizmodo nerds time to help me out. I have a couple questions and while I’m not the dumbest guy in the world I’m looking for simple answers -

I took issue with Man of Steel not because of the destruction, which was yes horrible if it happened in the real world and no doubt would actually happen if two super powered beings were beating the snot out of each other, but that they gave control of the film to a guy who reminds me of a bully I knew year ago when I…

There’s no point in getting either worked up or excited about this because as soon as they announce a new Iron Man film or we get the next Avenger film Tony will suddenly be back in the suit. It’s how Marvel works. Any real change that comes along doesn’t last long because apparently the comics and the films have to…

I call myself both. I’m an Englishman first and a British citizen second. Notice I didn’t say Citizen of the European Union (although my passport does). I’ve always been a proud Englishman and will be to my dying day but I also consider myself British which I believe many others do.

While I thought this conversation was done with I’ll say this - THE EU IS NOT DEMOCRATIC. Those in power cannot be voted out, I cannot vote any of those who truly hold power out of their positions no matter how much I try. I cannot take Merkel down from her perch (although from what I’ve read and heard it seems the…

I’m a Star Wars fan, collect the comics, read the books, buy every bloody version of the previous films etc but for some reason I’m not at all excited about this film. I don’t know why I mean I plan to watch it but I just can’t force myself to be excited for its release.

And the hand fan. I had a hand fan and I’m sure I said “I do declare”.

That could actually be a good plot for one of the episodes. You’d have to have a twist like say it wasn’t her doppelganger but a future echo of herself and at the end of the episode she finds herself back at the station and stepping towards the edge of the platform (with maybe us seeing the doppelganger in the…

The fact that you made me laugh means you won...this round!!!

I can’t speak for those who voted on the basis of free movement so I won’t try because to a point I have no issue. I do believe that countries (all EU countries) should be able to deport or refuse entry to people who have a certain level of a criminal record (anything that had them serve more than say two years in…

I don’t understand why it seems so hard for FOX to make a Fantastic Four film. I mean I can think up certain rules and how to set it and to help - If I were writing it I’d do a couple things before putting pen to paper and they are:

Took you long enough. What was that a day to think that up? Now I’d say something witty back but that made me laugh which negates any comeback I can think of.

Of course we’ll have something to shout about - We’re getting access to the EU market, (Free movement isn’t a deal breaker for me personally so I can’t really comment on that but it’ll no doubt be part of any deal) and we couldn’t change the rules of the EU when we were at the table. I’ve said before a lot of the time…

Yh same here. It was the reason why I bought my Ipad in the first place but it now spends most of the day and night as either a drinks coaster or a mouse mat lol. Like I said, I’ll still use physical books for the Christmas reading, because the books I want to read are expensive for the kindle (I’m not paying fifteen…

I’ve bought mine about three months ago after debating it for a long time. I love physical books but sometimes it isn’t always ideal to carry around a couple hundred page books so after reading reviews and still half sure I came here and a lot of people couldn’t reccomend it enough and you know what, after having for…

While yes some of the rules are stupid and almost always ignored there are others that can’t be ignored and are forced down. Our fishing industry was damn near destroyed. British Fishermen have gone from catching and selling thousands to a few hundred because the EU demands that our waters have quotas and even those…
