So yeah. It's been literally been half a decade that I posted here, but I guess commenting on Stu's death, that's a good enough reason. The guy was a right-wing madman who wrote imho pretty dry prose, but at the same time (as mentioned) he had a trans character be one of the heroines of his story, a...

I know for a fact that Lush cosmetics is moving it's major fabrication facility to Germany. And offering to help any employees who wish to migrate along, but they are moving.

Turns out that paying yourself 38,000 dollar salaries, selling Axanar Brand Coffee, models, and getting a shiney new studio (which you'll use for for-profit ventures) plus a career, all over the back of a large IP, is a bit too much for a studio to allow. Rule #1 of making fan films: Do Not Make Pro...

Hm, this Joker looks like he's trying to look crazy. Which is missing the point of the character. The Joker doesn't try to look crazy, he is crazy.

Osgood. Leave the question of wether it was the actual Osgood that Missy killed or Zygon Osgood open for most of the season.

Then reveal it's the Zygon that's now the companion.

It's been out a week over here in Europe.

The reviews are starting to come in, and they're good. Very, very good for the most part. It has a 92% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, though I'm aware that's not the most reliable site. But still, it could well be the dark horse of the summer... [/Thread necromancer] It would not be the Dark Horse of t...

It's good. It's REAL good. I got as much enjoyment out of this as I did from Pacific Rim, and that was the best popcorn movie of last year. I certainly think this is a better movie than X-Men, and Godzilla. It's almost Winter Soldier good. The only real letdown is the last few minutes, where they fu...

Maybe it was a bag of Assault Popcorntm, I hear that stuff is a deadly weapon.

Maybe the old nutter mistook the bag of popcorn for a bag of Skittles?

Yeah, that makes me really sympathetic to the Amazons.... Dude, NuDC has to be MORE "edgy" than OldDC, don't you get that? Besides, it wasn't like in OldDC the Amazons weren't occasionally a bunch of homocidal bitches. Remember their invasion of the USA? Find a male kid on the street? Off...

A very solid "Meh" as far as I'm concerned. Lot's of neat ideas, very shit execution.

It seems like Utah is almost in a panic as if it has been invaded by hordes of Mongols or something Mongol hordes would generally be politically to the left of many of the protestors. Still I have visions of rainbow dressed Mongol hordes That would be a fabulous sight :D BTW: Merry Christmas Merry ...

Hate Castro if you like. But trying to deny a father his right to see his child just to take swipes at Castro, while at the same time hypocritically pontificating on human rights shows the true nature and calibre of certain people. I would love to be the metaphorical fly on the wall when some of th...

Anyway, my point is that throwing Diana into an already crowded mix bodes ill for the attempt to establish a DC cinematic universe. It all but says they're not confident that a Diana solo film would work. And that's their problem. Confidence. WB/DC are afraid they can't make a compelling movie abou...

Ah, I guess that is what I was trying to allude to. So then, if that is all what dark matter is, then why wouldn't dark energy be energy that is "invisible"? Because dark energy cannot be observed. Neither optical nor radio telescopes can detect it and it emits no radiation. The only clue...

They also probably wanted to gather sufficient evidence to make a conviction reasonably likely once they got around to prosecution. Can't access it right now, becuase Spacebattles is being laggy as all hell, but someone over there posted a link to the charges. If only half of that stuff sticks Ulbr...

Macbeth: I didn't like this. Macbeth, urged by his wife, kills the king and is guilty about it. So what? Yeah, power tempts people and some might feel guilty. . Many killers in real life don't feel guilty about their actions: most gangbangers don't give a hoot about killing someone; matter of fact,...

And the Case 52's just showed off an ability which might be instrumental... If anyone can get them to actually stand and listen.

And now, Kickstarter for LWA 2 is on here . Already up to 535.000, looks like it was really underground hit :) Best thing is, they started it during SD Comicon, and they were on the floor when somebody walked up to em and said "Congrats with your kickstarter!" And they were like "Huh...

Fuck that was bad. I already knew Grant wasn't called the Mad Scotsman for nothing, but damn, that coupled with that artwork? Seriously? One of your flagship titles, and that's the artwork inside of it?

Nope, he merely said he'd regenerated "half a dozen times since we last met" which is correct, going from 4th to 10th Doctor. Assuming you ignore the fact that the last Doctor Sarah met was Five, in The Five Doctors. There was also the SJA episode with Eleven where he threw out an enormou...

Why would christian churches be so interested in scrolls that pre-date Jesus? Did you just hear yourself say that? If you THINK for just a few seconds, you're going to find out that you said something REALLY stupid. I mean, you basically said "Those fragments are only discussing the FIRST test...

Would have been absolutely amazing if River Song hadn't been included as Exposition Lady.
