G'night, everybody! :D

That reaction (which mirrors mine, btw) reminds me of a line from In Living Color where Spike Lee is trying to offer a customer a copy of one of his movies: Spike: "You get a copy of School Daze with that." Woman: "Oh... that's okay." Spike: "It's free." Woman: "Oh, it's free? That's okay..." I could see McG trying…

@Zinger314: Please refrain from tasting the knob.

@SG-17: Ever since learning about Hero of Alexandria, I've wondered what the world would be like today if the Industrial Revolution has taken place in Ancient Greece.

@edosan: Yep. When the Red Skull 'dies' in the destruction of his 'secret' skull-headed island fortress, you expect him to pop up again in the future.

@Belabras: Deep down, I know it's 'just a story', written by people for whom it's 'just a job', but is it wrong to feel that, every time they bring back one of these dead characters (particularly the 'minor' ones), it cheapens the significance of their death/sacrifice?

@lovelyivy84: Exactly. This is why I stopped reading comics in the '90s: too much retconning to make EVERYONE related to/responsible for EVERYONE ELSE. I'm truly surprised there isn't a line from every one of the other characters to Wolverine.

@Puns-n-Roses: I'm of the 'time-travel as the inverse of teleportation' bent, where one travels in time but (literally) not in space, which means if you travel one minute into the past, you appear in empty space, in the spot the Earth will be in sixty seconds. It's possible that a lot of the Doc Browns of the world…

@bawheid: I wonder if that world's Philadelphia would have developed differently over the past 50+ years if there had been such a strong connection to New York City.

@Shadowpuppets: Love it! It's even better in the radio series. Everything's better with a British accent.

Sorry, Star Wars. I prefer to think of you as what I remember, rather than what you've become...

We had one of these! Still do, somewhere. Loved the colored-plastic overlays that took the place of color graphics. Great fun to play, though, and it really was portable!

I thought dropping Snooki WAS dropping bologna, sausage, a drag queen and a possum. Yep, all that and a bag of chips... ;)

@Malthian: I was already familiar with Coupling when the American version aired. Sad thing is, I watched the American pilot, then BBCA aired the original version of the same episode. It was AMAZING how much of a difference there was in the delivery, since almost all of the writing was identical (minus those…

@Thogar: On the one hand, I love that British shows don't stay around long enough to jump the shark. On the other hand, three-episode seasons? There just HAS to be a happier medium...

I've always felt that 'control' of the TARDIS was more a matter of willpower than technical prowess. It's as though he's mentally thumb-wrestling the TARDIS itself in order to go where and when he wants. Sometimes he 'wins' and arrives on target, sometimes he gets close, and sometimes he loses and ends up very…

@regis: G'night, everybody! :D

@Cheney Guevara: Do. You. Want. To. Dance?

@214w: I burned out back in the 1990s. I was a summer intern for Homage Studios. On the one hand, it was interesting to see a comic studio in its day-to-day operations. On the other, it was depressing to watch how easily some really poor decisions were made.

@Bob6k: They really should. That was really well done!
