I get that they’re trying to Voltron Data into something new, but I’m not sure narcissistic sometimes asshole Data is a good idea. Especially given that’s what Spinner has played in the last couple seasons anyway.

Reggie becomes the new Skinner, and he occasionally suggests that his agents call him Skin-man but nobody gets the reference and are sort of weirded out by it. Multiple episodes go by without mention of him or his position and then when he does reappear he insists he’s been there the whole time. In one episode the…
So Mulder/Scully/Reggie are all retired. The X-files have been basically closed, and then the US Navy Pilots and a few interested senators start seeing weird crap and decide to start a new program informed by project blue book and the work of Mulder/Scully etc.. I think it could work. Nod to the old series but don’t…
“Hit it. whoo yah!”
I enjoyed the Warriors radio announcer in the 3rd act. I was hoping for another reference like the Tuco gun building montage scene from JW3, but the Nowhere to run needle drop was fun.
I do hope that Angrier Anthony Bourdain, Rick Owens and the Unsullied become a thrupple. The grump, the drama queen and the romantic, it’s perfect.
Welcome to Daystrom, take a left past the hall of cursed masks and keep going until you hit the Malevolent Sentient space probes, second right and that’s the bathroom. If you see Q’s son, anything that looks like 8472 or start to phase in and out of this dimension, you’ve gone too far. Stop by the gift shop on your…
Two things, if you put a blonde wig on Michelle Ang, she’d be the right age for adult Omega in the BoBF/Mandalorian/Ahsoka timeline and would be an interesting Brother/Sister/clone story for Boba Fett. And Cad Bane’s hat wasn’t big enough in live action. It needed to be like annoyingly big, floppy 1940's movie star sun…
I was weirdly ok with how this episode treated the giant grey area of “Neoliberal bureaucracy is Diet Fascism with better PR.” It’s the banality of evil vs. the evils of banality. It felt very FBI agent instigating a terrorist in it’s storytelling but also with Pershing being the poster child for the Good Rehabilitated…
It lands pretty solidly in the “Camp” end of the spectrum. Not sure why they decided to just make up a new Robin when there have been like 8 of them at this point. If I end up hate watching it, chances are I’ll be rooting for Court of Owls and whoever they get to play Talon. Disappointing but not surprising that it’s…
Yea, they could have cast someone with real gravitas to be the bad guy like Jeremy Irons. I wonder why that never happened? Also why didn’t they make any sequels to the Matrix?
Things I liked:
Crusher pulling the “I’ve been a Dr. longer than you’ve been alive.” card with the whole “you rely on your equipment too much to not palpitate the guy’s abdomen in search of internal bleeding” thing.
I’m calling it now that Bella Ramsey will show up in the Mandalorian as an easter egg extra in the background or the voice of a droid or something, and this will continue until all the best Game of Thrones Actors are recast as into the Star Wars expanded universe. Give us Leena Headley as a retired bounty hunter (like…
It’s an interesting concept, but the execution often feels like instagram backdrops similar to the museum of ice cream or some of the installations by Snarkitecture. I know immersive experiences had a moment up until Covid shut everything down, but the intersection of public art and haunted house doesn’t have the…
They could have at least kept the low slung nacelles. The “retrofit” could have taken the aesthetics of the Excelsior class ships (more circular saucer section, re-integrate the weird elevated bridge part back into the saucer, give it back some post modern sculpted lines, less greebling, the ye olden times blue deflect…
Weren’t we going to get a Rogue Squadron/Top Gun/Xwing vs. Tie Fighter type of popcorn movie at one point? That movie practically writes itself. Just a crew of grumpy hardened A&P mechanics hanging out in some carrier ship yelling at pilots, doing these little probing strike missions to get ready for some incredibly…
Storrow with Arborway/Jamaicaway close behind and the Newton supercollider. Jamaicaway is posted at 25 with no divider between oncoming traffic on one side and trees right at the edge of the lane on the other and traffic regularly is going 50. The supercollider in Newton corner has 10 some odd roads feeding into a…
If they’re doing Flashpoint real service, I’m guessing Keaton will be playing Thomas Wayne instead of Bruce and that Waller put Kara on ice as soon as she landed seeing metahumans as a threat. It looks like they’re replacing the whole Atlantis vs. Amazon war with Zod’s invasion and Cyborg & Booster Gold’s arcs were…
Fast Ten your seat belts for Jason X-2: Jason vs. Alien vs. Predator vs. Freddy. In space there’s nothing stronger than family. Staring Vin Diesel, Timothée Chalamet, Florence Pugh and Dame Judy Dench, directed by Paul Verhoeven. Exclusively on Shudder and Disney+.
I’ve enjoyed everything I’ve seen Jonathan Majors in, Captive State, Lovecraft Country, that one episode of Loki, the harder they fall, Devotion, the trailer for the next Creed movie... So I’m sort of ok with the movie sort of hanging on his acting ability. I’m not sure how they’re going to portray Marvel’s evil Dr.…
