Dune. The Lynch movie. Paul riding a sandworm. changed my life. became sliiiiightly obsessed with the (original) dune books :3

“...Is Fast And Furious With Flying Cars”

AMEN TO THIS! Among the many many things that the Prequels lacked, strong framing was perhaps the greatest visual sin. Don’t get me wrong, the OT certainly was pretty prosaic in regards with it’s framing, much of the film is shot pretty simple, but it was freaking Citizen Kane compared to the prequels.

Arguably this is what happens to him, after he gets a heart!

I feel really sorry for you. It sounds like you’ve somehow gotten the notion that it’s a cultural and social imperative to suppress your attraction to other people. That’s not actually normal or healthy behaviour.

Rob, Miller was given the rights to Mad Max and Road Warrior by Warner Bros. as part of the deal to drop Justice League.

This kind of thing keeps happening. In 1931 mathematician Kurt Gödel published his "incompleteness theorem", proving that in any axiomatic system (like math) that will always be true statements that are unprovable. This, coupled with Turning's 1936 negative proof of the "decision problem" sent shock-waves through the…

It was a very good first issue, but is it maybe premature to declare it one of the great comics this year? I feel like we hype things too much before they've a proven track record. Or is it just me? Has the Internet inspired us toward greater hyperbole?

let's just hope Lexx was wrong

"The Nine Billion Names of God" was the first Clarke story I every read, and I can still remember where I was and what we were doing when I read that ending. In a similar vein, Bradbury's "The Fog Horn" haunts the mind long after you close the book.

Well I've been coming to Kotaku for years and this is the first time I have been compelled to chime in.
