Gawd, right? It’s like we don’t even need to quote her anymore. Just shorthand her name and we ALL know what’s being said.

But Martha’s death would likely be offscreen at this point, right? Or maybe not, maybe they’ll show her trying to adjust in the USSR next season before giving her a Nina-like sendoff?

Yeah, I had read that back after the first two seasons had aired. Pretty cool. Sad that she died the way she did, but still glad that she got off lightly in comparison to Ramsey’s usual sadistic pursuits, which is fucked up in itself - “that character who got a knife in her throat after showing herself to be loyal,…

Right? Any more time together would not have been good. I was honestly relieved that Osha’s death was quick. But it still sucks, she was a great though under-utilized character.

Um, isn’t Shaggy Dog dead?

In related news, the book’s unpublished prologue, entitled “Before They Called it Gilead” has begun filming with set locations in states around the USA like Oklahoma and Ohio, Texas, Mississippi, Missouri...it’s unclear, however, if this series is meant to be found footage or actual docudrama...

Yes, he said it’s one of his favorite books :)

I’m so sorry that happened to you and worse that they victimized you a second time with what should have been your attacker’s trial. My experience was somewhat similar in that I felt like the gearing up for the trial felt like a second assault, and somehow even worse. I remember being so grateful for the police when…

Totally, and so many people overlook it because bunnies, but as far as fantasy world-building goes, it’s on par with he best of them.

Right? There’s a lot of cynicsm about the reboot already, but if they do it like the current iteration of her games it could be amazing. I’m totally down if they focus more on her becoming a through and through survivor of the elements and taker-down of mercernaries rather than just the ready-made, gunpacking hottie…

There are so many “punch the air, shout fuck yeah” moments in the book and that is definitely one of them. Another favorite is when Kehaar takes his first dive at the Efrafrans as the main crew escapes. I LOVE that the chapters leading up to that part are entitled things like “the storm builds” or whatever. I’ve read…

You should read this - I stayed away from it my whole childhood because of the 70s movie that was basically bunnies outright murdering eachother in a nightmarish orgy of blood and trippy animation. The book is not this. I finally read it in my 20s and do so every year. There are parts of the book where you will…

I read that Strawberry was cast to be female, which I’m guessing means they’ll have her male mate be the one caught in a snare and killed at Cowslip’s warren. She could join the regular crew as one doe, but they’d still want more to grow Watership into the warren that Hazel envisions. Hyzenthlay and Thethuthinnang…

I literally mentioned the “absorption” of litters on the io9 post today. It’s definitely one of those tidbits that stay with you.

True story - I was driving home with my husband through Rock Creek Park in DC and saw a dog running without sight of it’s owners (they caught up to it later) and started mumbling to myself “There’s a dog loose in the wood.” Then with increasing volume, “There’s a dog loose in the wood!!” I don’t know if the husband…

Yeah, the kinda do in the book though it’s described in a very polite “chewing pellets” kinda way.

As I’ve said repeatedly today - John Boyega, James McAvoy, and Nicholas Hoult make for the sexiest bunnies that ever silflayed. Can’t wait for this. I read this book three times in a row one summer. And my entire dining room art scheme is devoted to it. It’s highly quotable and also, if you want weird, there’s…

I kind of think that was supposed to be the joke - the homogenous white folk of Pawnee and Scranton wouldn’t know what to make of “biracial”. I could be wrong, though.

I was really disappointed to learn that Idris Elba was going to be made unreconizable in the new Star Trek. But I can’t help but wonder - the alien ethos of the boldly going into space to find aliens schtick aside - if they decided to cover him up because they thought there’d be a different sort of outcry if the new…

I love Ve Neill so much!! She’s one of the best things about Face Off.
