Cos as we all know... ideas like that have always worked out sooooooo well in the past.:p

Yep that's right... the Great Maker has his own Twitter account now. He says he has primarily done it to stave off the amount of spoof accounts purporting to be him. That said, he might just get his toes in the water if Pat Tallman has anything to do with it... she's been spreading the love and...

Also with regard to the cryptic portent... it was VERY much done in a similar way to the Koshism in Gaiman's Babylon 5 episode "Day of the Dead".

That thudding sound you heard a few minutes ago was my jaw hitting the ground with the force of 100 Hiroshima bombs. Neil Gaiman's Doctor Who episode was THAT good. I think we all knew: But it was done with so much style, panache and such a clear understanding of the Doctor's backstory and...

Strangely we had a problem in our cinema... the 3D wasn't aligned and it looked like we were watching without glasses. They had to reset the reel a few minutes in. I must confess I had a nerdgasm at the end of the movie... and scared the couple behind me who had no idea who JMS was. Asgard...

Possibly because they may want to introduce him as a bigger character in a sequel that may move towards Ragnarok (Balder's death starts the cycle). It also may have something to do with the character dynamic (in terms of what each god represents). I like Baldr... as C.S. Lewis pointed out...

GADZOOKS!!!!! That second episode was a bit of a mind bender :-)

In fairness to the latter, the studio is to blame and not Scott. The theatrical cut is severely trimmed down because the producers wanted a film more akin to Gladiator (a film with more emphasis on action over intrigue and character. It falls flat because too much hangs on Orlando Bloom and...

He got pretty poor reviews for Robin Hood from what I can gather.

Happy to oblige add [ spoiler = ] (minus spaces) and close with [ / spoiler ] (also minus spaces).

Thing is we need people like Ridley Scott to shut up. There's this persistent false notion that "science fiction is dead" that is in vogue at the moment that is being peddled by a lot of leading directors. Scott has said that Science Fiction has "nothing new to say":guffaw:(contradiction in...

Some people are actively trying to spoil things for Smith & the Moff because they are still suffering a post Tennant hangover. They should not be taken too seriously.

Oh and Doctor Who Series 5 has 3 Hugo nominations now. Much as I love the Moff's writing, I think Vincent and the Doctor has the strongest chance of bringing the booty home for DW.

I think that's a fair assessment... but I think you'll find the Silence have a connection to a lot of other stuff that's less obvious.

Good to see him again wasn't it? I had no idea that Mark Sheppard was his son.

Yeah it was great to see W. Morgan Sheppard again... I had no idea he was his son's father... if you take my meaning. The oversized heads with slimy skull like faces make them really sinister... especially when they lack a mouth. I really like the episode and jotted a few thoughts down on my...

This is turning out to be a bad year for legendary Doctor Who character actors. Elisabeth Sladen dies at 63.

I was just glad to see a genre production where Michelle Rodriguez didn't get wiped out. I agree that in terms of cinematography and "feel", it shared a lot with District 9. Speaking of which... isn't there supposed to be a sequel to the latter at some point?

Um. Last I heard, principal shooting was due to commence in February so I find it a bit odd you are musing over that. Production start confirmed. Here's the cast list so far... Martin Freeman as Bilbo Baggins – Attached Ian McKellen as Gandalf the Grey[7][8] – Attached Richard Armitage as...
