As a general rule, the Dini/Timm animated version of anything in the DCU beats the live-action version of it. There are probably a handful of Christopher Reeve scenes that are an exception, but that’s about it.

I hear the whole plot of the revival is trying to solve his murder. Spoiler alert: It turns out Stars Hollow is really next door to Twin Peaks.
Except the film doesn’t explicitly take Dash’s side. In the end, he’s racing for second just like his parents wanted, because he understands that “special” doesn’t mean “more powerful” like he thought it did, it means “deserving of dignity and respect”. Syndrome’s whole flaw that makes him a dark mirror to Mr.…
I want Starship Troopers styled propaganda videos. Would you like to know more?
Superheroes! They are dark and vengeful and their lives are full of miserable carnage. Or carnivorous misery. I…
The epilogue was actually, I think, the most important part of the series. In a way, throughout the entire run, Harry Potter had been searching for a father. He had a father who wasn’t there (james) and one that never told him any secrets (Dumbledore), one who cared but showed him no affection (Snape) and one who…
In the books, the big bad spends most of the book leading his demon army in a war against the elves and the men, dwarves, and rock trolls who join them (the gnomes (I saw you called them trolls, but they're gnomes) weren't even in the book aside from a brief mention). So, rather than boring politics in Arborlon great…
Let’s not forget her most challenging role: “Have you any idea what’s it like to be a fem-bot living in a man-bot’s man-puter world?” “What?”
I hate the original one as well. The TMP refit was always my preference.
Seriously. It’s like saying that “Save the Rainforest” somehow means “Fuck all the other Forests!”
Agent Carter is a show all about sexism, and particularly all about the notion that after World War II, women who…
Flashbacks are an interesting storytelling device, and if they aren’t used correctly, can seem like a hamfisted way of forcing themes or connections down our throat. My favorite use of them in recent history is Man of Steel, where the movie starts with Clark grown up (you know, after the whole awesome Krypton scene),…
which is how you solve your ‘piracy’ problem. By making a better product. We wouldn’t have the netflix we know today without piracy. remember that.
We never see Will and It at the same time. The closest we get is at the end of 4,722 when they are trying to get to Fitz's flare, but because of the sandstorm you can't really see them both. You do see It and hear Will's voice (seemingly coming from a different direction), but if you are thinking they are one and the…
Um, if Red Tornado gained sentience doesn’t that mean Supergirl killed him?
Tonight’s Elementary was a reason to like the show: untangling a ridiculously convoluted mystery where everyone has…
We know that the producers of The Librarians are big Doctor Who fans, and they basically write Flynn as though he were the Doctor (which is a mild improvement on the inept Indiana Jones knockoff of the movies). This was basically Geoffrey Thorne’s version of Neil Gaiman’s “The Doctor’s Wife,” with the Doctorish Flynn…
For 40 minutes I really didn’t like that episode. It was just the same old generic moralising crud Dr Who has been this season where the Doctor is always right and both he and Clara talk all highly but then immediately go back on their own speeches.
I’ll post this again:
“This ep solidified why
Merida hateswe all should hate Arthur.”
