Kevin Smith was writing that one!  He must be crushed.

We get flashbacks to the death of his parents, which I’m pretty sure boils down to the droid army killing them during the Siege of Mandalore. I wonder if we’ll get a peek at Ahsoka and Rex’s battalion in more detailed flashbacks.  The droid army killing his parents would definitely explain the deepseated mistrust of…

She was made in a cup.  Like soup.

“Major Dad” reboot featuring Peggy Carter’s office hijinks w/ stay-at-home dad Steve Rogers trying to manage 3 rambunctious kids without any of the modern day amenities he’s so accustomed to.

No, MIATA is always the answer.

“Does Admiral Marcus look like a bitch? Then why’d you try and fuck him like a bitch, Khan? Yes you did, yes you did! And Admiral Marcus don’t like being fucked by anyone other than Mrs. Marcus.”

Thank you!  I’m shocked more people haven’t been remembering this.  

The rest of the Orville crew made it off in escape pods.  Bortus stayed behind to pilot the ship.  They mentioned earlier in the episode how one crewmember stayed behind while everyone else abandoned ship.

I think since he wasn’t officially cleared for duty, he couldn’t be in uniform.

Do it in the grand old style of Gone w/ the Wind and have OVERTURE and ENTR’ACTE emblazoned on a splash screen while the music washes over the audience.  And bring back Alan Menken for a musical number for Cap somewhere in there.  “Would you like a theme song, my lord?”  “SHUT UP, MENKEN.”

I was not prepared for that.  Her voice was so accurate, my eyes almost got a little misty.

This does seem very pricey compared to any reasonable prepaid MVNO currently on the market. My family currently 2 lines w/ 5GB EACH for $70/mo on Cricket right now. We’re about to switch to a 4 line plan with their Unlimited 2 Plan and that’s still $100, all fees and taxes included. Prepaid providers these days…

In “vein”? In “VEIN”? Are you typing this with Dragon Naturally Speaking voice dictation?

For a compare/contrast in quality, check out Keith DeCandido’s cogent and insightful recaps over on TOR.com. They are laid out with clarity and glide with an even-handed tone. He even makes citations to multiple episodes of previous Star Trek shows when doing character analysis. It’s the kind of writing and critique…

This is now par for the course, considering the old guard left and put Rob Bricken in charge. When they first hired Bricken, he was best know for his profane ranty Transformers 2 Spoilers FAQ on his old site Topless Robot. Topless Robot and io9 could not have been more different in tone. But they let him transplant…

I’ve always thought it’d be a fun subversion / endgame for the Mission: Impossible movies where after all these years, Tom Cruise finally gets himself into way too much trouble and then his wife has to assemble all the awesome women (Thandie Newton, Maggie Q, Rebecca Ferguson) from his past adventures band to rescue…

That’s exactly what Quantum of Solace was.

How about Natalie Dormer then? A reasonable facsimile?

It just hit Netflix last week. GO NOW!
