If that's the case, Green Lantern shouldn't be on the list either, since Parallax was retconned as the real murderer. I say if GL stays, Phoenix stays.

Futurama can't jump the shark. Futurama IS the shark. Its basic premise is all about pop-culture references providing the essential backdrop for the character's interactions, not to mention the characters' personalities themselves relying on pop-culture references. All built on top of science fiction pop references.…

The Falcon character sounds horrendous. What was wrong with the Ultimates version, a brilliant engineer working part-time for SHIELD with his own set of mechanical wings? That would have been a great character to go with either Avengers 2 or the SHIELD series, a completely positive role model for da kids, and no…

I think your brother was right: Just like in The Incredible Hulk, the producers decided that every episode had to have the "money shot," the fight, decapitation and pyrotechnics, to cap it off. If there were any exceptions, they were rare... and I know I never saw an exception.

Why not? He comes off as smarter than that Reagan doll.

If you look closely, you can even see the heat shield hitting the ground in a puff of dust. IM-pressive.

It is time to move past the individualist Frontier motif, and concentrate on the other motif that's made America great: Americans, working together to accomplish goals. "We, The People" are the power and driving force of this country; all of its accomplishments, from the Revolution to date, have been accomplished by…

I have my doubts as well that Artie is somehow fighting an evil version of himself in Brother Data. What I don't get from Artie is why he didn't stun and capture Father Data when he had the chance? (Especially after Brother Data goaded him about it.) Although so much else about the show makes great sense and great…

From that footage, looks like Hamill's been eating plenty.

If such a law passes, I want legal social rights given to my car. After all, I've developed an attachment to it, and would be distressed if anything happened to it...

So, has the next round started and I missed it?

It just goes to show what a good publicist will get you. And you're right: As outlandish as the story sounds, Hollywood would probably love it! Somebody give those guys my name, I've got a book that would make a great blockbuster...

Typical anti-American sentiments. That IS socialism.

I think you've got your basic Justice League movie script right there.

Makes you wonder when we'll wise up and use biometrics for ID/passwords.

Funny you should mention Star Trek: The Next Generation's pilot episode was one of the worst things I'd ever seen, from a cast, story and direction standpoint. Fortunately the series worked out its bugs... in 1-1/2 seasons.

I'd agreed with your SGU comments: I always called the show "Stargate: Galactica," because of the obvious visual and thematic similarities, but lacking the power of BSG's formula.

I'd say "Moon" was another such movie, sidestepping the robotic "consciousness" issue to examine the relationship (and connection to reality and self) between the Moon's sole occupant and the AI on the station with him. An excellent film, if you haven't seen it.

“What are the winds doing?”

In GM's case, definitely "Hip to be Square."
