Yeah, a lot of it depends on which rights they have — technically they *could* reveal Demerzel as Daneel if they have rights to the prequels and sequels, but I think it puts Giskard off-limits as they’re not really part of the Foundation prequels. They can still go with Zeroth, but as something Daneel develops. It…

I like the subtlety with which they’re centering Demerzel. They’ll eventually be the focus character, I imagine. Their expressing faith isn’t odd in the overall context, given that they have a belief in humankind being able to transcend — plus it’s a way to make the Zeroth Law function. If Goyer sticks to the overall…

Well, this answers my questions about how they’ll handle the time jumps and the anthological nature of the series and whether things will descend into flashbacks and flash forwards.

To be fair, at least one of the videos showcases the nipples of all three, something that gave *me* bass face.

David Goyer.

Doctor Strange is a weird one — the first act alone happens over at least a year, probably more, as Strange recovers from the accident, fruitlessly searches for a fix (and has further surgeries), slides downhill, loses everything, and finally gets the first pointer sending him to Kamar Taj. I’d say it’s 2-3 years.

The actual inflection point might not be Hope — as Nat is going through the Avengers recruitment files we see a file for Janet van Dyne, who wouldn’t be in those dossiers — at that point she was presumed dead for decades, lost in the Quantum Realm.

Carl’s either the Guardian Of Forever, or an Organian. He could be a Q, but he’s not enough of an asshole by far, though he could be a kinder, gentler Q testing Georgiou’s development.

They may have done this because the Harlan Ellison estate might have gotten pissy about it. I know Ellison had gotten the lawyers alerted any time there was even a hint that NuTrek would revive the Guardian.

As a fellow old you ought to know that Friedkin’s film was a lesser adaptation of the very grimy French film Wages Of Fear and that the visual references are in part a reference to that, including the bridge. It follows then that the Imperial Remnant here is also a French reference, to the Foreign Legion, as well as…

Apparently you have no idea who Michael Chabon is.

We must agree, Zack, to disagree here. However:

What an odd accusation to raise against Michael Chabon. I’d wager he’s read more and better books than you have.

I’m surprised neither Zack nor anyone else seems to have landed on this idea. As soon as Clancy seemed to acquiesce to Picard, and Picard got so naively happy it seemed like a gimme that anyone being sent to DS12 was there to arrest the Motley Crew or blow them from the sky.

“It turns out that the Zhat Vash stumbled on the complete Battlestar Galactica box set.”

Sue isn’t fridged by rape, she’s fridged by Jean Loring (wife of Ray Palmer) using Ray’s tech and stomping around in Sue’s brain. The rape was unrelated to the murder, but served to set up another plot line about Zatanna fucking with the minds of villains and heroes alike.

Just an editorial note — you have Byron as “Bryon” in the majority of the article. I suspect Dalek Autocorrupt at work.

The Invisibles is by Grant Morrison, not Ennis.

Sigh. Yisney. Yisney Jr if you must.

Ha. I’d guessed it was Manhattan, but,yeah, likely Veidt.
