Not sure about Monsanto specifically but we (in the EU) do have different regulations regarding mutagenic/cisgenic/transgenic products. We class more things as genetically modified than the US food agencies do. (We are, possibly, too strict, as under our regulations you could make an argument for identical twins being…

That means there were at least nine times more test animals than control animals. If anything, studies of this kind usually include two or three times more controls than experimental animals.

My cinema was only showing it in 3D and I think it was worth it, personally.

Yeah an actual crime spree - stuff being stolen, maybe the odd guard getting hurt, but no danger to the city (only its insurance rates I guess). That would be a great story for Batman. I do think the Nolan-verse (particularly with Catwoman's backstory and Scarecrow's reappearances, spotting Zsaz etc.) gave nods to it,…

WRT that Batman rumour, I think this is an approach that's missing from superhero movies. Dredd this year is essentially about one bad day, if Dredd loses, Megacity 1 will continue tomorrow. I'd love to see a Batman movie wrapped around a case, rather than the fate of Gotham. But then, I watched a lot BTAS and BB as a…

Snerk *applause*

Actually, a former flame of mine did this (I was still on the stalking/ice-cream/booze stage of grieving) and it really helped. Anecdotally, I'd give this approach five stars.

If you're a fan of Alex Garland you need to read 'The Coma'. That book was sublime.

According to QI there are two recorded cases of someone 'not dying'. Enoch and Elijah, who were merely taken by God to heaven so, yeah, even that statistic may have a very small margin of error . . .

SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!

... okay - if the show makes any sort of concession to this theory I'd be prepared to give it a chance.

You still understood a hell of a lot more than I did

No that still doesn't work. If electricity doesn't work - we die. Our thoughts are electrical impulses. Our heart has an electrical signal. How do your nerves tell muscles to contract? ELECTRICITY!!!!!!! Our very bodies are dependent upon electrons moving in our tissues. Seriously, it was the damned plot of the…

I guess we're invoking 'No Endor Holocaust'

But the premise is SO stupid.

I don't care if I'm an old, withered woman by the time this rolls around - I am going to be ON that warp drive spaceship.

He would have been the Stallion Who Mounts The World

YES! Perfect idea!

My theory on the Ponds leaving:

Yeah you really won't miss it. The first time I was stargazing in America I was blown away by it - really beautiful.
