I wish I could remember. It might have been Fringe. I’m pretty sure it was a TV show.

Boston “accents” in movies tend to grate on my ears, since I grew up in and around there. I’m sure southerners feel the same way when watching The Walking Dead. “Coral!”

Except it’s much more likely that the flaming chain belongs to the Inhuman Hellfire

Are you sure this isn’t going to be on the CW?

Wait, you’re saying that’s a bad thing?

Huzzah for the Babylon 5 reference!

Hey, that’s me! Minus the supergenius part...

I have this vision, dream, whatever, where aliens arrive and all they find are these things wandering the world.

Using cutting-edge CGI, Mickey Rooney will play Batou.

Yes, and Hergest Ridge!

I was joking that the only thing it has in common with the movie (other than the title) is Mike Oldfield’s music.

I love Tubular Bells! But most people don’t know that it was recorded before the movie and had nothing to do with it. But once it became part of the movie, it because nearly as iconic as the Twilight Zone theme.

The Exorcist, a drama inspired by the music of the classic horror film.

I’m hoping Conviction is just a place holder until Capaldi leaves and she becomes the new Doctor.

I’ll watch it for Malcolm Barrett.

Excellent example! And there’s no reason a villain can’t be as full a character as Sir Appleby.

Towards the end I was afraid he was going to have turned himself into some kind of monster, using the tech and/or super soldiers found in the Arctic. Something big and nasty for the good guys to team up and fight and to end up destroying the facility so we could see that all come crashing down, etc. etc.

But doesn’t that speak volumes about why villains tend to be cardboard cutout characters?

They’re too well-rounded as characters to be villains so you have to treat them both as protagonists even though they serve as antagonists to one another.

Well there’s three of us.
