If it’s good fiction, I’ll read it regardless of the universe/source.

Some of the old Mechwarrior books were superb. Not all, not MANY, but some were damned good.

I like The Wrath of Khan more but First Contact is a solid second place for me.

Frakes is a good, no, a damned good director.

Let’s get dangerous....

I’m still not sure what we, the movie-going public, did to deserve a movie this absurdly glorious.

The, “You failed to maintain your weapon”, always produces a grim smile of satisfaction from me.

It’s Boo-tay! Tay! Tay! Tay!

I think everyone on Barsoom was a minimalist when it came to clothing...not just Dejah Thoris.

I agree, this seems a rather puritanical revision of the material.

As for Red Sonja and Vampirella...I’m not sure. It’s probably not egregious with their characters to put them in armor and clothes.

Ricardo Montalban was a ridiculously handsome man.

Didn’t the Royal Navy sponsor and perform scientific expeditions while fighting a war in the Atlantic, Mediterranean, Pacific, and Indian Oceans at the same time?

I’m sure those ships were had military personnel as well as civilian scientists if memory serves?

Maybe my timeline is off, but I swear that even while

Bless you for “Sledge Hammer”.

It’s been so long since someone else remembered that show and song I’d come to think it was a fever dream.

Barf, no.

The closing credits song wasn’t too shabby, though.

I’m makin’ gravy...WITHOUT THE LUMPS!

Didn’t Arya make a little speech about playing a game where you make lies sound like the truth right at the beginning of her confrontation with Sansa last week?

It made me think the entire thing was for show or to see if her sister could work out what she was really trying to express.

The series could have ended tonight.

*Dany, flying over with three dragons*

“Hmm....look at those assholes in the back on horseback, just watching, like they are in charge....let’s go give them a taste of dragonfire, children!”

*credits roll 60 seconds later*

“Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.”

Yar. 

T-tell them to not put ketchup on hot dogs, either! I’ve seen them do it...with these haunted eyes!

I will be honest, if I was in James Gunn’s shoes and was making movies I would move heaven and earth to make a music video like this with my brother.

This will be an Epic Tale passed down through future generations of the Gunn family.

I’d be willing to bet that’s the first time someone has said, “How adorable are you?”, to Green Arrow.

Also, yes, that glance at the ‘Eject’ button was hilarious!

Oh this looks good!

Yeah, I see that too. I’m Cuban with Spaniards in the family and the snobbery of the older patriarchs and matriarchs towards folks from Central and South America (or Portugal) is amazingly bad. Really bad. Shamefully so.

My generation onward doesn’t seem to give much of a shit but my upbringing makes me rankle a bit
