Nah, man. They put him on the catch-a-monster patrol and that's about it. His main contribution was having the magnetic rock. He's good at arrows but no better than the 1000s of other troops there. Each character - William, Lin, Wang, Scared Guy, worked together using their unique talents for the greater good.…

Yep.

Were you asked not to ask about the third creator, Lara Schoenhals?

I have no idea what you mean in the first part of your sentence and, being both from Van Diemen's Land (now Tasmania) and of Irish descent, I am more than well aware of what has happened to the Irish under British occupation.

"This Sunday marks the 100th anniversary of the Easter Rising, a stunning moment in history when passionate citizens stood up and demanded autonomy from their rulers." Partially at the encouragement of the German government, in the midst of WWI. The Irish were not, as a whole, onside with the rebels until the UK…

I've been informed multiple times by all manner of eggs over the last couple of days that critics don't matter, films are made for the fans, and that you should just switch your brain off and go out of support for your chosen brand.

It isn't. Boots Randolph was from Kentucky originally, but lived most of his life in Nashville, Texas.

Stranger on the Third Floor (1940), Murder, My Sweet (1944), Spellbound (1945)….

Is it really more briefly handled, or did they just leave out the bits by Thomas Middleton that were tacked on after 1615?

And yet they are making a Flash movie.

Origin stories are every supposed issue the producers & marketing will inevitably raise as "confusing to the viewer" when confronted with an actual story laid out as one great big preemptive powerpoint in movie form. Presumably this is in the hopes that creative team will get to make the real movie next time, though…

"Screwed eventually" is pretty much life. They've set the Doctor up these days to know how to think through any problem given enough time, so a few more minutes to plan would surely be his first thought. All they had to do was make the pod blow up after the Doctor got that lady out or summat.

Boy, it sure would've been nice if the Doctor had had access to a stasis pod near the end, don't you think?

"You know, since that pretty much includes all white people before 1900."

F. Scott Fitzgerald was judging folks with beliefs like Lovecraft's (via Tom Buchanan) while HPL was alive.

You'll still be waiting for the award statue 42 years later…

Always thought Obi's investigation would have have had more oomph if the Jedi who supposedly ordered the clones was named as Qui-Gon. Jedi, definitely dead but well respected? It was right there! But instead we literally got a typo as a half-thought-out plot point instead (Sifo-Dyas was originally the incredibly…

Has everyone just plain forgot that movies have writers?

Yeah, the whole book is awkward, stilted and generally reads like someone's RPG campaign journal (this happened and I fixed it, then *this* happened and I fixed it, then I made sub-Dilbert level jokes about management and disco while the DM looked up the falling damage table).

"The wireless" was still in use in UK/Commonwealth English in the 1980s, albeit mostly by people who were listening in the 50s per the lyrics. My dad still uses it today.
