Let us be honest here.

I remember this film, a strange fever dream from my early childhood that, had I not seen it more than once, not seen it broadcast several years running along with Rankin-Bass’ other holiday treacle, would not believe could exist.

I was expecting a bit more... “target analysis”... ;3

I wonder if China’s latest censorship spree has anything to do this move, given how desperate many a content provider has become to secure that huge advertising market. The irony here being, of course, that the result of Tumblr’s decisions will almost assuredly be very little surviving content to keep users and drive…

I have the first edition, myself, and recommend this tome for anyone with a deep love of the technical and production design of the original trilogy — but a word of warning: it is an archive of various blueprint illustrations, often incomplete and rather sketchy in detail, so don’t expect this to be a comprehensive…

I would think Frosty more of a snow golem. But that “old top hat” — clearly a cursed item with an entrapped souls, yup. 

I was discussing this very thing with an associate of mine the other day. We dubbed it the “Pixar effect”: having become accustomed to the look and polish of high quality CG animation, only the very best stop-motion can hope to compete at all, and the old variety seldom even comes close to current expectations. …

In a corner office somewhere, a cloistered senior executive heard about the success of the DuckTales revival, and decided that their company could do that, get themselves a piece of that sweet, fowl lucre — but they needed a bird, any bird, preferably a cheap license — but their bird wouldn’t be some damp-footed…

I have serious doubts if they actually have any idea what any version of the iconic USS Enterprise looks like... unless they mean after self-destructing (and the above does the resemble that, either).

Quirky in proper Burtonesque fashion. ;3

The appearance of Spock seems to be another case underscoring how Star Trek: Discovery is dogged by exactly one, grave, cardinal error: a pretence of being part of the original continuity.

If interaction is based upon “Duck Hunt” (with a laughing Wookiee) I’m there!  >;D

Q only watches basic cable.  ;3

This is the argument I have made repeatedly on the topic, and continue to stand behind.

It’s quite an accomplishment, true, and looks clever in the trailers, but one does have to wonder if such stereotypical Disney branding of Wreck-it Ralph by shoehorning in the company’s favorite, marketable IPs might actually weaken the film series’ unique merits for audiences that loved the original precisely because…

No wonder the Colonial Marines were so unprepared — the briefing mentioned “xenomorphs” and they thought they would just be facing some ancient wasps... still, the fates of the original Galaxy Express crew should have given them pause. Space-wasps are not to trifled with.  ;3

John McCain was one of the very last hold-overs from the Old School Republicans, and thus, in comparison to what supplanted that respectable instituion, is automatically elevated to a higher standing than his reckless successors.

Considering that the actual statistical incidence of extraterrestrial life is unmeasured and unkown, and the Earth represents but a simgle sampling which may or may not be a valid exemplar in terms of common biodiversity, evolutionary intervals, or even basic conducive conditions, any claims about the distribution of…

There appears to have been some effort made to make each core cast member distinct with unique motivations which may drive their actions and interactions. The clips show little more than bare hints of this, of course, so it remains to be seen if this will be capitalized upon successfully in context, or never rise…

Quite true, and I remind myself of this every time I watch another clip. No matter how otherwise “meh” the comedy element may seem so far, Disenchantment does demonstrate intriguing character potential in the same way Futurama suggested in its own early, lackluster promos. I’m not getting my hopes up (just a…
