Maybe they were left to discourage anyone who might come in there with ideas about using the printing presses. You know, just in case the blood and bullet holes weren’t enough.

I like how Maeve and Dolores still use the dramatic period drama speech patterns of their characters, even if they’re self conscious now. Just because they’re aware and sentient doesn’t mean they’re not still controlled by their programming. It’s like upbringing and habits. You can change and evolve to an almost…

Wow I was not expecting that. I thought it was a good movie but a bit too overstuffed for the romance to really work. I haven’t seen the other nominees apart from Dunkirk though.

Hmmm... While I would tend to be on the side of the author, and Gaiman is one of my absolute faves, he’s not the best screenwriter. I would have preferred to have kept Fuller. He has more than proven himself in terms of delivering challenging stories on the small screen.

This makes me so nostalgic. I always loved the sciencey, speculative posts and the deluge of superheroes got a bit much in the end. But these days I can’t even access the site half the time. I keep getting redirected to Gizmodo Australia, especially from my work computer. So frustrating. When I was reading this post…

Well, there used to be io9, but if you’re sad about AVClub you already know what happened...

If I get to finally see Janelle Monae kick ass as an android this will not be a waste of time. I still think the Chronicles of Cindi Mayweather would be a great starting point for a sci-fi franchise.

Science!

Obsessive selfie taking almost sounds like a stereotypy to me. That is, repetitive behaviour that acts as a coping mechanism for and a symptom of an underlying problem.

I have a distinct feeling that this is going to make Angela even more zealous. She needs a mission, and she needs to be good. She has to make the loss of both her only friend and thousands of lives worth it somehow. The only way to do that is to press forward and hope the new world Whiterose promised is delivered. I…

Your dude tre comments made me imagine a version where Odetta/Detta/Susannah is the main character. Now that would have kicked ass.

It’s both parties fault. Women need to learn self respect. At a certain age you just leave toxic workplaces.

So is this supposed to tie in (however loosely) with Legion?

ID? That sounds bad enough. I don’t want to show ID when I’m buying sex toys.

My pretty confident guess is that it will be Aegon’s invasion of Westeros, the Dance of the Dragons, Dunk and Egg and Robert’s Rebellion. Those have all been written and published in some form. I’d love me some Blackfyre rebellions though.

No weta?

Poor Reinhold now has over 8000 followers. Nice work.

A lawn chair came flying onto a train platform for no reason? What?

They should come up with a new line then. Or try to focus on what they thought was good, or maybe just say “That’s too bad, hopefully everyone doesn’t agree. I like it.” Don’t dismiss people’s opinions out of hand just because they write professionally. James Whitbrook thought the show was awful and he got a job here…

It’s still the “poisonous tree” someone mentioned earlier. If the Playpen data was illegally obtained then the warrant they got based on that information would be invalid and all the evidence found as a result of that warrant would be inadmissible. So it seems like they try and fudge how they know who to search and so…
