Katharine... sorry for the misspell.

Amended... ep2 was much better and seemed to flow and brought a little of the old magic back.

I watched only because of the connection to Vertigo and felt like I’d gotten sucked into Elemental or transported back in time to the 80's and Sunday TV night with The Love Boat and Fantasy Island... thankfully there’s an adult table on television these days and we don’t have to sit at the kiddie table anymore...…

I was really looking forward to it: (http://www.hollywoodintoto.com/top-5-reasons-…)

Charlie Jane Anders... another great article. Lot’s of good comments, I’d only add...

I agree, I loathed Man of Steel and hopefully will never set eyes on it again. That being said, seeing humans kneel before Sups in the trailer... is a theme I’m genuinely curious to see play out.

Okay io9... here’s the deal. I read your comments. Always. I know some of you, by what your source, are older, but most can’t remember the dark, dark days of the 70's and 80's and 90's and some of the 00's when there was almost NOTHING. I guess when you get 33 films over a ten year period you can nit pick the Joker,…

That’s a good point. Maybe it’s like a spectrum... Abrams..... Spielberg...Lucas...Scott... It’s not like I want Star Wars to become Nolan’s Batman, but the Cave, the Carbonite... Maybe it’s Lawrence. “Kasdan is brilliant and like the Beatle that nobody talked about. We talk about Spielberg and Lucas, but not nearly…

It comes down to J.J. Abrams... it’s the same with Star Trek. What I’ve realized after three films is that it’s a generational thing. J.J. has no pathos. He grew up, as many of his generation did, in idyllic wonder. This is the result... his movies are fun, full of action and light, but dark and meaningful they will…

How does the 1 stop the other 3 from making changes? That’s the crazy math in this. How I work with climate change deniers...

My wish (it turns out well) list:

If you are west of the Mississippi, how is the HOF relevant in any way? Like Canton, its always been an East Coast thing.

Fuck a remake, I want a prequel.

All good... the Ex Machina dancing seen was surreal because it was so unexpected. MI5 take off was pitch perfect because it rolled into original opening song, all of Mad Max could be in this and Star Wars had many... haven’t seen The Reverent yet, but Jurassic Park doesn’t belong here. That scene fell flat. The entire…

This was written in 1953 or so, the start of the Cold War, when earth faced with nuclear annihilation... Like much of the work written at that time it’s meant to send a message. I like seeing old SF turned into television/movies, but do we need yet another version of Shelley’s Frankenstein? Did Spielberg really need…

To paraphrase the amazing Lyle Lovett:

Beautifully written...

I’ve been teaching for 15 years and I can say with authority that the hardest thing to teach is systems thinking. Humans are stuck in duality: we see an “us” and a “them” a “black” and a “white” and it’s not about DDT on the human system... it’s DDT plus the 10,000 other various carcinogens we’re exposed to on a daily…
