And his sidekick, Seaman Staines.

Elves at Helm’s Deep, and no Glorfindel, who routed the Black Riders (not Liv Tyler, I need scarcely remind you) and originally prophesied that the Witch King would not fall at the hands of man. Enter Eowyn, a legitimate non-manufactured badass! I love the films but yeah....

What if half of those missing hosts from storage got on the train (they could probably roof surf) and secured the mainland terminal or sabotaged it? Mainland implying that Westworld is on an island. And Samurai World presumably contiguous or nearby?

What torpedoed it for me is that this is the future, and Kirk is riding around on a motorbike. Does anyone think back to the TNG movies and think “I really enjoyed that bit when they were in that baja buggy, or on the boat!”? Because the scriptwriters of this movie did. And when did Kirk learn to motorbike?

I’d like to see a news background thingy on the Enterprise making reference to “the surprise election of our former colleague, and now Senator Chekov after the capturing and tethering of what is now known as the Chekov-Scott platform, an extinction-level asteroid no longer! We’ll have more from Senator Chekov coming…

I’m willing to try not to move to Canada with Lena Dunham. I’ll give it a shot, dammit.

I get that off internet comments sometimes. Shouldn’t there be constant tiny writing scrolling up my screen warning me? A guy always on in the background saying ‘diarrhea, hatred, laughing out of context, a sense of fear, please see a physician if symptoms persist’?

Yeah, just read Dune, Dune Messiah, no point unless you read Dune first, but after that you’ll feel like you have to read more so no... Dune is comfortably in the Top Ten, the others comfortably are nowhere near.

Yeah, I hated that too.

Sure, but e.g. the whole body/wife swapping, grimdark, eurgh, no. Should have been far more light-hearted and got on with it, not start off with struggle for survival and a bunch of deplorables.

What you said, except forget Universe. I really did not think that show was part of the same, erm, universe.

Ah, you’re wondering about the boots? They’re standard issue, perfectly normal.

Maybe he knows you are a vile creature? Just a theory? I mean, we’ve only got your word for it that he was a colossal douche, just like we only have your word for it that you are a sick person to work with. I’m just going to take your word for it.

Mr Smith Goes To Washington. Either that or Rear Window.

See, I find it interesting thinking about the nuts and bolts of how it might work in reality. The whole guns thing bugs the hell out of me. Then I started thinking about buying Detroit and turning it into Fallout LaserQuest. I’d got as far as establishing that between 12 and 2 A.M. the backroom teams would have to…

Just hang on a mo - Charlie Sheen has a reputation as a family man? That’s given me a good chuckle.

So sweet! Pluto is doing Charon’s makeup!

Ever heard of Derek and Clive (Peter Cook and Dudley Moore)? Here’s a sample:

If they start with it all over for zed, and have Brad Pitt doing what the first movie should have been, I’ll bare allow it. Otherwise, it’s Worl2 War Z: The Nothinglikening.

If you’ve seen The Ice Storm, the two siblings call each other Charles. My sister and I used to call each other Morgan. But she called me it more, at the most socially embarrassing times, and it stuck to me. “Morg” she calls me. So much so that Morg’s my username on Wii U. Obviously I’m going to watch this one with…
