The Magicians (SyFy TV series) was very LGBTQIA-friendly to begin with, but the episode “A Life in the Day” was maybe one of my best (top 10?) episodes of television in the last couple of decades and one of the best queer episodes I’ve seen in quite a while...
So, presumably this is why the director of the episode was specifically chosen for this one... this was new information to me, having not been familiar with him (Kogonada) at all in looking up some of Jodie Turner-Smith’s past roles, I realized she had worked with Kogonada before and looking at him... given the Rasho…
that everything we thought we knew about this idea, and about the Force, at this point, has been guided by the interpretations of the Jedi and the Sith, of a Light Side, and a Dark.
I’ll be honest, I really thought the headline read “decapitation-proof” and was very confused as to the “Suspiciously Specific Denial” (thanks TV Tropes!) of it all...
Eh, I actually view it differently — I suspect (but cannot prove since I don’t have the financials/contracts) that there’s something that escalates payouts (either salary or residuals) to cast after a 5th season of a streaming show.
I know, right? Like was there not TV before the 1990s or something?
Not only was 12 Monkeys better than it had any right to be, and Emily Hampshire needs to be in more things, but it stuck that series finales way better than like 99.44% of all other television shows.
No, but it was written at a higher-level than a lot of other shows on TV at the time — and “Requiem” in particular was going for a more emotional climax than we’d reasonably seen outside of things like Robotech.
Yeah, I tend not to watch fan-made stuff (unless it’s quasi-official like that one Star Wars fan-film contest in which “Christmas Tauntauns” won) if I can help it... but I love the passion.
By using this telescope you are affirming you are not Anish Kapoor, you are in no way affiliated to Anish Kapoor, you are not scanning the cosmos on behalf of Anish Kapoor or an associate of Anish Kapoor. To the best of your knowledge, information and belief this cosmic history will not make its way into the hands of…
Yeah, “Requiem” would have been amazing — but it was never made, which is a pity.
Yeah, this is spot-on. I always used to make a birthday cheesecake for a professional cake maker friend because no one would ever dare make them a cake, and they never got to eat cheesecakes. Big hit every year. (or they were being polite!)
At least a couple not listed, both in the Doctor Who sphere (which I guess is sort of a cheat):
I mean, look, of the movies on the list — the only ones that really make sense given what we know would be The Rock (Hercules), Fassbender (The Snowman), or Gyllenhaal (Life) — but that sort of is contrary from what we normally hear from these guys’ sets largely.
Why would you remind me of AICN?!?
