Just double checked merry ol' Wiki. Looks like no acting nominations, unfortunately. Lots of technical ones, though.

I think Ang Lee got an award, but I don't think any of the actors did. So Frosstbyte is still on point.

Yeah. I hear you. But it's hard, in comparison with other, more serious, civil rights issues in current events competing for my attention.

Of course, now it looks like I said some totally bigoted bullshit or something. But what can you do?

Yeah, fair enough. I'll take it down.

Hey, can I ask an unrelated Disqus question that's been bothering me for months? What's the most efficient way to see one of my comments within the context of a whole thread of comments? That is, say I reply to someone's comment, then maybe someone replies to me, then, as often happens, maybe 7 or 8 people reply to…

New-ish father, here. That's how my wife and I saw Star Wars and, yeah, totally preferred it to getting a sitter and making a big date night production out of it.

Disagree that the Weeping Angels were nerfed. If anything, their second appearance underscored that they were fundamentally malevolent in a way Blink did not. In Blink, you could make the case that the Angels are basically like scavenger animals - the sharks of the time stream. If they catch you, they feed on you,…

Continuing my adventures on Qello. Watched the Classic Album: Black Sabbath's Paranoid documentary and was enlightened a bit by it. I was always more of a punk than a metal guy, so Sabbath isn't something I'm overly familiar with, beyond the songs everyone knows. Mostly I was struck by the political angle to songs…

No, that trick only works with Predator.

I'll just come out and say it: The previous show runner was an out-and-proud gay man who introduced more diversity into Doctor Who than there'd ever been before. That was a great innovation and something that that showrunner, RTD, deserves credit for. His most adoring fans were sad to see him go and when Moffat…

One thing that's funny to me is that the consensus seems to be that Chibnall has written mostly mediocre episodes of Doctor Who, but no one agrees which ones are the bad ones!

Moffat hasn't been scary? Good grief, dude brought in Weeping Angels and the Silence. I thought his scary bonafides would be solid.

I do think that glossing over that complaint was one of the goals. But it's such a cool Heinlein-style sci-fi idea that I don't give a damn. Turns out her best friend was her daughter all along! How cool is that?

No, he's right. If you've ever hung out on a Dr Who forum the cool kids are the ones who hate the show but still watch it every week just so they can complain about it.

I think he means sex in the squishy squishy slurpy slurpy sense.

You had me all the way up to where you used the word 'meager'.

As an aside, wasn't Kevin Clash cleared of charges? Or is that kind of a Cosby defense?

What film?

Not to be mean, but what's the state of the talent at Henson? Labyrinth was no joke in the puppeteering department. It was Henson's crew in top form. Is that same level of talent still hanging around?
