To be honest, that figure seems a little low.

I tried to introduce one of my kids to Alien not long ago, since she is such a big fan of Sigourney Weaver and I thought she would appreciate seeing her breakout role. We made it about two-thirds of the way through the film before she asked me to turn it off. She wasn’t scared, her actual complaint was “the movie is…

Maaaybe, just maybe, it has to do with the fact that his character was an immortal ageless vampire, and he as a human has aged 20 years since the introduction of said character? He was already looking a little “long in the tooth” (sorry, sorry, I’m so sorry) by the end of Angel Season 5 and that was like 13 years ago.…

Thanks :)

To be fair, the decision was probably Chibnall’s to make whether to begin with an established companion or whether to reset everything. I imagine that Moffat offered his successor some advice (and considering how he started Series 5, I suspect I know what his advice was), but I doubt he had the final say over a show…

There may still be hope. My oldest kid didn’t show any interest at all in Star Wars, but a couple of years later the youngest became such an absolute Star Wars fanatic (she was Capt. Phasma for Halloween last year. We ran into more than a few boys dressed as Stormtroopers that night, and she never passed up an…

I recognized 11 of them, and own albums by 3 of them. My use of the word “album” obviously betrays the fact that I am over 40.

Say what you want about ephebophilia... at least it’s an ethos.

“The leaks are real, the news is fake”

Zod definitely had a lot of menace about him, but I was thoroughly disappointed that he never ordered anyone to kneel before him. If you’re going to do fanservice with an old favorite villain like that, why half-ass it?

Sorry if it wasn’t clear, I was just being snarky. The filter is “don’t click on articles you don’t want to read”.

Hmm, a point I hadn’t even considered. We don’t have enough sets yet that storage/display is an issue, but it won’t be long before we reach that threshold.

Agreed on all counts. My kids and I have been fans of the Lego games for years, so I was super excited at the very idea of Dimensions but initially put off by the price. Then we found a 2-for-1 sale at Toys-R-Us (picked up half a dozen new characters/vehicles), and scored the Starter Portal for less than half price on…

Dude, let your freak flag fly! I have been to more than one animated “kids movie” by myself and no one called me out for it. Maybe leave the trenchcoat at home though...

Cheers!

I found myself agreeing with your post more and more as I read, and trying to place that weird feeling of familiarity. By the time Enoch was mentioned, I got it. Duh. I’ve read Cryptonomicon 3 times already, but it has been over a decade since the last reading. Thanks for this!

Thank you...? I’m assuming you’re not being sarcastic, which is unfortunately hard to gauge these days. If you are being genuine, then I definitely appreciate the sentiment.
