Nothing in the movie is going to be as pleasing as the cute photos of the three Jurassic Park pals hanging out. I wish we could somehow get a movie where they just play the characters long after the island opening a bakery in New Zealand or something. Totally divorced from the dumb cartoon dinosaurs.

I am cautiously excited for this. Hill House was a very entertaining ride with a couple of really well constructed reveals. Also the family felt very real to me, I found myself genuinely caring about them (which I find to be quite rare in horror.)

The question looming over Bly Manor is if they can pull it off again.…

I always remember that scene with the painting at the start of The Witches because it’s delivered with such horrifying sincerity. There’s no comic relief or other distraction to take you out of the moment as an old woman tells her grandson that her childhood friend was tossed into some bubble dimension to wither and…

I’M POSSESSED!!

I thought the Walking Dead show was a sequel to this?

To be fair, many official police Facebook groups are racist..

We’ve hit the LOST anecdotes stage of the pandemic.

Remember when hoverboards came out and they were just a segway with the handle snapped off? This is that.

“We need tie-in toys. Television. Movies. What you got? Hit me up!”
“Okay, err... Lucille Ball has a new sitc...”
“Enough with the Lucille Ball ideas! Come on! There’s gotta be something else!”
“Okay, well.. what about that show Star Trek?”
“Star what now?”
“Star Trek. It’s a science fiction show.”
“Oh like flying…

Obligatory mention of Dead Set, Charlie Brooker’s (Black Mirror) zombie miniseries in the UK that used the real Big Brother as a backdrop for the zombie apocalypse.

Is the header image a real person or one of those Japanese robots?

Ever since the Time-War arc came to an end (for the second time) in the 50th anniversary I have felt the show has lacked a good strong hook to its wider mythos. It’s often hard for a very old established franchise to construct new and meaningful chunks of lore to shape the show beyond constantly referencing “classic”…

The Razor Crest super reminds me of the dropships from the old videogame Gunman Chronicles (itself a space western,) seen here:

The real science-fiction is Nick Offerman’s hair..

While it is true that ‘The Muppets’ is a reality based documentary, the creators tried to play with audience expectations of what a factual production can be by including the fantastical science fiction character of “80s Robot.” The robot is a metaphor for America’s inability to process the fact that muppets are real…

The giant hand rising above the desolate overcast wilderness is giving me Time Bandits vibes.

“From the producers of Kill Bill”

You’re gonna have to be more specific, buddy...

So the Ninth doctor brings a dangerous alien artifact to a volcano in Earth’s history he knows is about to erupt?

There was some suggestion for a while that this episode was inspired by an Anne Rice novel, which also led to a minor conspiracy theory/urban legend in the fandom that Anne Rice had actually written the episode under a pseudonym, (the story is credited to a freelance writer and fan Jeanna F. Gallo.) This is all very…
