So, a small group of fascists take over the world and within six months people view that as normal because they've been brainwashed by a broadcast signal filling their head with false versions of history.

Joan Allen and I could prove you wrong.

Hardcore or GTFO

Huh. I figured that meant they'd call the movie Top Gun: Jagoff

It's going to be the same as a movie made in 1986 because if you made a movie that updated that character to 2017, he'd be an angry Trump voter screaming about Muslims and homos ruining his 'Murica.

I'm holding out for an all male screening of the Dinesh D'Souza film canon.

I think what bugs me most about Moffat is that he's given up entirely on world building and consequences.

Is that from the book? Because I wondered if perhaps they would not be happy with these washed up old Gods and these vacuous new Gods fucking up are nice little planet.

I loved that McShane made "WHAT???" sound like he was cawing like a crow.

This is very much reminiscent of Heinlein's book JOB: A COMEDY OF JUSTICE.

Do we know that? Laura said in between death and reanimation, she was somewhere

When Shadow said "That's a lot of Jesus," in the print shop, Wednesday looked taken aback and replied, "There's a lot of need for Jesus."

You're totally gonzo, ain't ya? Filming underwater with actors in masks is filming underwater with actors in masks if you do it in a studio, in a nuclear reactor, or on the fucking moon. This started as a discussion about how you (or someone) thought obscuring faces made it impossible to make a movie, which is the

7 hours? Okay, this is one of the few things that makes me glad I was a kid in the 70's and 80's rather than now.

Are you crazy? Is that your problem.

There aren't caveats to No One Is Expendable. I'm not criticizing the Doctor's morality, but rather the idiocy of believing this is his ethos.

Mmmmmm, marzipan dildoes!

I gathered it was personal, because only love of The Doctor personally allowed her to pass the consent test. If she'd been doing it to buy time to defeat the aliens, then it's the same strategy that got the generals killed.

Ridley Scott didn't have any problem shooting thirty minutes of the first movie with the actors obscured by ginormous practical helmets. And Jim Cameron made it work in the Abyss even though the actors had their faces covered and were really being filmed underwater. They made realism a feature, not a bug.

At this point, if they'd just throw in a scene of someone saying, "And we've purposefully hired some very dumb and/or mentally unstable people in order to ensure the aliens get to infect someone," I'd be happy. Just throw me a fricking bone here.
