So everyone has been saying “I wish they could keep Pike on the show” so... why don’t they? What if they really do scuttle Discovery at the end of the season, and set the next season on the Enterprise? Other than the loss of the Discovery bridge set to the production (which can drive production decisions like this), I…

Personally, I think as long as they follow the rules for eligibility, like Amazon, they should be allowed to participate.

The simple fact is this: in a world where the majority of people experience movies on television (or computers, or tablets, or phones), there is very little distinction between a movie made for theatrical distribution and one made for streaming. And that increasingly extends to serials as well. I have not seen Ready…

I kept trying to come up with something...anything...that could match it, but you really laid out the best one right there in the article. Much as I love the Klingon AND Enterprise reveals in The Motion Picture, as much as I dig Serenity’s barely-keeping-it-together vibe, nothing comes close to matching this:

The moment Kirk and Scotty see the refit Enterprise for the 1st time in TMP is the reason the term “spaceship porn” is a thing...

Still waiting for the really good stuff from Jodie’s Doc. New Years Day episode again felt like they were trying to cram a double-parter of a story into a short timeframe and - hah - ironically for a show such as this, you can really feel all those moments where the story skips vital info just to cram everything in to…

The scientists from “Prometheus” don’t understand your concern.

Okay, I will be straight up honest: It should have. And the only reason is that I forgot. I failed to put it on one of my lists, and so it slipped through the cracks but frankly, I would have bumped something off this list if I had remembered (probably Searching? I dunno, it’s hard to pick).

I’m surprised Annihilation didn't make the list.

I think companions like Barbara Wright, Sara Kingdom, Zoe Herriot, Liz Shaw, Jo Grant, Sarah Jane Smith, Leela of the Seveteem, both Romanas, Nyssa Of Traken and Ace are all great examples in the Classic Series of women who aren’t simply support and are gifted and distinctive in their own right. Even traditionally…

It was extremely ill-advised, and she should’ve known better. But she didn’t, and in the wake of social media backlash realized her mistake, and apologized, in a severely chastened fashion. While she certainly misread a public mood, and her empathy ain’t great, the more we do this Kangaroo Court by social media thing,…

Just a reminder...

There’s a bit of pop writing advice that instructs the writer to ask, “Is this the most exciting or interesting time in your character’s life? And if it isn’t, why aren’t you writing about that?”

There’s just so much here. Part of the reason this situation feels so odd and unprecedented is because, as the letter alludes to, this is an extremely nuanced situation that is being handled in the court of public opinion- a court that is famously bad at handling nuance.

Right wingers can say whatever sexist and racist thing they want and nothing happens (see current president). A “lefty” cannot have done anything wrong in their life, or they will have their careers ruined.

“The Siege of Lothal,” “Twlight of the Apprentice,” and Rogue One are by far my favorite Vader moments.

Don’t forget his appearances in Rebels. Vader lays waste to an A-wing squadron and a decent-sized cruiser all on his own, survives getting an AT-ST dropped on him, and more, even with only a couple of screen appearances. The show set the stage for seeing him at the end of Rogue One.

To be fair, it seems to be mainly Star Wars. There have been at least a half-dozen or more disappointing Star Trek movies (conservative estimate), several less-than-great X-Men movies, and a shitload of terrible Bond movies, but I don’t remember any death threats in the aftermath of those films. Almost all of the…

I’m willing to bet the market for indie comics is, at a very generous estimate; max, 1/3rd the size of the mainstream comic market.

I’m generally on board with the editorial slant of most Paleofuture pieces, but i really think this is an overreaction:
