@ms_eli1: I'd start with Angelina Jolie, but that would just defeat the purpose.

I see this a miniseries on Starz. They seem to be able to bring some money to the table.

@dB: We'll shoot it with the RED camera. That's the best camera there is. It'll be a real fly-on-the-wall, handheld documentary style, but with great production values. Maybe we can get Michael Chiklis. Or someone with that Michael Chiklis feeling. Justin Bieber, he's got some of that Chiklis feeling. Or Michael Cera.

@Cotes: That wasn't your point. You said that it was a formulaic, stagnant show, not that it took too long to get going.

@Erick Vazquez: I could see that.

@SkaHimself: Give me Death or give me death.

@Oxygengrrl: I think trope works in this instance. In a strict sense 'trope' can simply mean a turn of phrase or figurative language. io9 is using 'trope' in a more figurative manner, in the sense that the subject turns consistently towards certain subjects (as in a heliotrope turning to follow the sun) - but I don't…

@ParryLost: Pureed babies from the grocery store always taste like carrots and pears and bananas.

That's pretty much an all-purpose sex toy.

@SupaChupacabra: A nice breakfast of soylent replicant is just the thing to start your day and begin again in a golden land of opportunity.

@scottlandk: Devilvator! Slogan: Satan's Got A Counterweight.

That octopus was only using coconut shells because it didn't have a horse.

@SupaChupacabra: The short lifespan is the reason I don't feel bad about eating replicants.

You know what that graveyard scene really needed? Eggs in a glittering white tux and angel wings. Playing some sad-but-hopeful guitar to lift Tara's spirits. Really, True Blood, you missed out on something great.

@Anekanta - Destroyer of Worlds!!!: My mama told me never to let vandals control the spice.

I'm not sure what there is to puzzle out in Inception, beyond the question of whether Cobb ends up in a dream or not. Everything else is mechanics.

@lazyeight: A time machine and a gun. Godard would say that's all you need to film a Doctor Who episode.

That space is going to be so crowded with Guild navigators.

@jeroser: Continuity is hard when you're a kid? No. Children can involve themselves in a story incredibly deeply.

@ManchuCandidate: Flame units only!
