Starz seems to be very much a meat market channel. Every so often we get the exports onto UK TV. I loathed what they did to the Arthur mythos in Camelot. Some storytellers lean towards the romantic legend, others try and tie it in with history better... but Starz viewed both these elements as...

If you've seen In the Beginning, you'll know that the original Babylon Station seemed to have got a fair way into development... at least in terms of its superstructure... you can see in some images on this wiki link: http://babylon5.wikia.com/wiki/Babylon_Project

Mars at this point is the power base for Psi Corps... who are Clarke's "allies". I can well imagine Bester pulling a few strings to keep him on Mars so that Psi Corps could eventually play with him.

I don't think that is mere implication I think it is pretty explicit. If you read the canonic book "To Dream in the City of Sorrows", the picture becomes even clearer (well... as clear as it can be when the vorlons are involved). Sinclair's relationship to both Kosh & Ulkesh and the...

Pat is easily the most vocal on Twitter I think she's pulled JMS & CC along for the ride and of course both Bruce and Mira are there too.

I wonder if the current rotation of the various Avengers rosters is a ploy to maximise the next film's international appeal (a bit like how the Spidey Back in Black storyline coincided with Spider-Man 3). I think it's a bit curious that they've moved Captain Britain into the Secret Avengers...

I try to watch this episode every Maundy Thursday if I can and if I remember.

He definitely did. Remember in the second part of War Without End (when he already know he is going to become Valen), he tried to reach Season 1 Garibaldi by warning him to "watch his back". Personally I though that even if he'd have got through to him that was going to be too oblique for him to...

Yeah but that's America... you forget I live in the Shire! I've got a 45 minute commute to Birmingham or Coventry (yes THAT Coventry... the one that Sheridan referred to), if I want to eat Middle Eastern style. And I don't really have anyone to go with. And isn't exactly the most...

I felt quite smug because I knew exactly what shawarma was... you can't travel to the Middle East and not eat it. It's their main fast food delicacy. :) Well... unless you are a veggie... then it's falafel.

Anyone ehard the news about the Elder Scrolls MMO? I think it's a fantastic idea.

Just recalling what Ridley Scott himself said. That science fiction as a genre was as dead as westerns were in the 80's. They had nothing left to say. Of course he was talking utter excrement... but the trouble with "luminaries" is that people buy into what they are saying rather than making...

If Prometheus does well, it could jump start studio interest in the genre. Remember they don't care about us or what we are interested in... all they care about is money... and if the public shows interest in a certain genre, they will start investing in it to cash in on its success.

Hector was technically a cyborg. He had a huge cylindrical brain inside a jar.

Interestingly though, don't a lot of even "bigger" names do the commercial thing too? Every now and then we get them cropping up on obscure foreign clip compilation programmes... usually advertising cars in obscure countries that pepper the old silk trade route. Incidentally Bruce is now on...

Yes Aela the saucy minx... turned me into a werewolf and I um married her. :)

I mentioned it some place else when the film came out!!!!!!! Nobody listens to poor Galahad.

The only thing I heard him say was that it would be the most Christrmassy one yet... which had me nerdgasming over the idea of a close encounter with The Nativity.

I'm calling a young C.S Lewis stumbling into the TARDIS at an Edwardian mansion and heading off on an adventure on a snowy planet with the Doctor. I've actually been clamouring for that for AGES. *edit* just read the link and can't help feeling he should've gone the whole hog like I suggested...

That doesn't track with what Octavian tried to warn the Doctor about at the end, the whole thing about River having killed a good man... and the Tesselator identifying the good man as the Doctor (if indeed the last two are connected). Octavian and his guys started out as people you were wary...
