I know.

If they set up the series plot the same way the novel works that’s probably the best position to be in. :D

Came here to post this. :) I remember the late 70s Star Wars blueprint ‘book’ (a series of prints actually) had the Falcon as well, but it was very different - the whole rear ‘engine’ area was a cargo bay! See below:

Seriously. I didn’t recognize her at first in Season 2, but was thinking “Who is this actress? ...‘cause she is amazing in this part!” Checked the credits after and went “...of course!” I’ve always liked Studi’s work as well.

If you recall, we kinda already tried that:

No, just- no. This should be a single film, not a TV series. And it should draw mostly from the (excellent) book and a bit from Tartakovsky’s film, but get it’s atmosphere and style from the ever-eerie S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games.

Heh, you beat me to it. First thing I thought of when I read the headline. :D

So what you’re saying is that George Carlin may have been right?

I immediately wanted to mention Way of the Gun which was a very good (if dark) little debut film, but I see that others have beaten me to it so I’ll just add that the director’s commentary for the Way of the Gun DVD (and BluRay I presume) is also really good. :D

It happens all the time, actually. Even here in upstate New York I drive daily down a highway where you can still see a clear path torn across the wooded median where a small tornado uprooted all the trees and left a roughly 50 foot wide corridor behind. That same tornado then crossed the river passed right through a…

Wow, I could not disagree with you more regarding Rick's speech, not half because it was very well-delivered by Andrew Lincoln and succinctly expressed just how exhausted and apathetic they've all become. It was also accompanied by a great response from Norman Reedus, whose choked disagreement "We're not them!" I also…

I think I'm ready to let this show die a quick and (relatively) painless death.

John Bigbooty, you have failed Dr. Lizardo. :D

No. No, there wasn't. The first and only movie was a nice little medieval fable with Dennis Quaid as the reluctant hero and Sean Connery as the last dragon (spoiler alert) that I really enjoyed for what it was. It did okay at the box office and on home video but they never made another one.

That's all I'm saying. Cole's sacrifice may have saved the future world by allowing them to create a vaccine or cure, though Gilliam wisely doesn't show us that- just the hint with Jones on the plane. I call that a win (for Cole I mean). :)

Actually, we don't know what happens after Jones meets Peters on the plane. Remember, Jones has come backward in time to meet Peters. She already knows he has the virus; she just needs a sample of the original strain. Who's to say she doesn't get one and return to the future, thus saving what's left of humanity?

No, it's purposely left unexplained as Gilliam intended it to be. Jones' introductory reply to Peters is "Jones. I'm in insurance."

A point from the first episode: Jones and company didn't invent the time travel machine, they discovered it and got it working. It was already in development in the original timeline.

Queen of Angels and Slant were both great books. I would watch the hell out of a futuristic police procedural featuring Mary Choy. :D
