I don’t have enough stars for this.

I remember reading you over at the Nerdy Bird blog and then when you climbed aboard io9. So glad you joined and so sorry to see you leave. Best of luck in all future adventures, Jill!
We love the show in our house. The Geeklet (8yo) is a huge fan of Judy. My only wish is that there were more shows like it—family scifi stuff.
tee-hee!
You’re confusing “fetish” for “genre”.
No. Wrong. It’s important to talk about the pandemic and reflect on how we’ve acted as a society. It’s important to look at the experience of others through storytelling.
C’mon Rob, man, it’s an amazing book. And isn’t one of the key benefits of cinema/literature/pop culture that it acts as a mirror for our society and helps us reflect on what could be? Or help us work through personal and private experience through storytelling?
Ooo--I LIKE that twist!
Is it possible to at least retcon that she lived? We don’t really see her die--just an explosion. Maybe she was using Becket and secretly didn’t agree with his plans, decided to fake her death and leave the team behind.
He-Man meets Big Hero 6. I like it!
Was the price commensurate with the experience? Seems like Big Cons are just that—nickel-and-diming fans for everything and creating “premier experiences” that only the top percent can take advantage of.
Ah, but you don’t know Yorick.
More of a teaser than a trailer, yes? There’s not a lot to go on here.
Why would it be weird?
Strange Days tech and love triangle + Blade Runner 2049 climate collapse seems like a cool concept. I’m in!
Damn that Clyde Caldwell art--and the one for Spellfire too!--is cool. What a sad thing that it’s so much better than what the text deserves!
“Billy and Tommy, who have also disappeared because they were never really real to begin with.”
Didn’t the show go to great pains to say that they were indeed real--they just couldn’t exist outside of the Hex. Real, but limited range, so to speak.
It’s a billion dollar franchise. The largest in the history of cinema. I think they’re fine to “stand on their own.”
I’m still unsure Sharon Carter is the power broker. She fought the lab goons pretty hard. She definitely has some other motives though.
Do we know if there’s a second season of TFaTWS?
