Legends of Tomorrow could be frustrating at times. But when it was on, it was ON: Clashes in 1986 USSR. A ruined future Star City with a one-armed aged Oliver Queen. The truth about Chronos. Jonah Hex in the Old West. A killer twist on the Time Masters. And a blow-away final line that makes you eager for more,

I will Internet force-choke the first person who argues that The Big Bang Theory was right and "Indy really wasn't essential to the plot at all."

"From what dark night of the soul emerged this wretched idea?" Roger Ebert.

Yeesh, usually you can enjoy this column but man oh man, this is just damn depressing to read.

I throw a bone to Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens which has some nice new elements of play next to the classic puzzles and fun hearing new dialouge from some of the cast to expand the movie story more.

Playing Uncharted 4 just reminds me of the classic MST3K episode of "Lost Continent."
"Rock climbing….rock climbing, guys…rock climbing…rock climbing movies don't have this much rock climbing in them!"

A shout-out to the always great Astro City with a fantastic storyline bringing back Steeljack, the ex-con with steel skin from the "Tarnished Angel" storyline. Now a low-level private eye (more into catching super-powered cons and salvage work), he has to help his old partner Cutlass clear her name and explores more

Huh. Not a mention for the grand send-off of Person of Interest? Come on, one of the best shows of the last decade went out in a fantastic bang with stunning twists and deaths and a great close to a show that loved twisting you around nicely.

Did love an ep of him investigating Devil worshippers and annoyed by them. "What is with the goats? I don't even like cheese!"

Oldie but a goodie: Angel On My Shoulder, a somewhat misnamed 1946 movie with Claude Rains as "Nick" who sends a slain gangster to Earth for a job. Fun how he goes on ranting, knowing he's on the losing side but "I am still the master of my own particular sphere."

"They think they can beat me. NOBODY beats me."

Was about to say it. Why would the First of the Fallen be some suave guy but rather a total freak show?

I'm sorry, nothing for Lucifer of the comic book and TV show of the same name? Either one is fun, especially when he gets royally pissed about being blamed for all the sins of man when they're capable of ruining things themselves.

It's terrifying how many of his followers have yet to grasp he doesn't WANT to be President. He wants to win just to win, he has no knowledge or care for the actual job, thinks it's just like being a CEO. I can't believe the GOP has decided to commit mass electoral suicide by following this idiot.

One of the few times I have ever been on Bill Maher's side was when he trashed Dinesh in an interview after the latter kept claiming Obama was racist from his father: "How far up your own ass do you have to go to pull this out of?"

Ironically, a striking observation came from The Good Wife ep you mention wher Alicia and her opponent are debating it while in the kitchen of a dining hall and a black worker openly states "What I can't believe is that I'm hearing two white people try to decide why black people would riot."

So, basically, the series is….
*Slides on sunglasses*
Diverging.
YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Well, better than the Mirror Universe where he blows away the Vulcans and then leads the charge to steal their stuff.
Which has a great call back when the future Dark Archer talks of how Cochran was "bravely fighting off the Vulcan invasion force," showing "history is written by the winners" counts in any dimension.

The comics could delve in it a bunch too. Remember one showing the TNG crew in a universe where a rogue Starfleet man went back to ensure the peace in Star Trek VI never came to be.
And a wild story in the IDW comic set in the "Nu Trek" where Q shunts them into an alternate future where the Cardassians and the

Just that opening, a cold black-wearing Janeway talking of how you only enforce peace through force then showing the crew as a bunch of maniacs with Seven a full Borg and the Doctor an android. A terrific "what the FUCK is going on?!" opening that made you watch.
