Figured I'd kick this thread off on the new site: Hey, Mister President!
Read more…And so we come to the final chapter - a hurried, jumbled finale to a hurried, jumbled story. In the end, I have to say that they tried real hard and it just didn't work out. In some ways, it felt as though Chibnall had a bunch of ideas that he want
Read more…Now it can be told: I was a background extra in Wonder Woman 1984.
Blink and you'll miss me; I was just a blur scurrying around in the early scene set at the mall. (No spoiler; it's been in most of the promos.)
Some of you may know I dabble in backgr
Read more…Really wasn't happy with this one. The bit with Lethbridge-Stewart as a corporal in UNIT is utter BS and makes a complete hash of UNIT continuity. Aslo, REALLY don't like the idea of UNIT having been infiltrated from the very beginning and especial

My personal current headcanon is that he's about 25 years older than Bruce (I cannot imagine hkm having been the Wayne's butler earlier than the age of 30, especially since he's supposedly
Read more…If Jaime Hernandez agreed to do a mini series for Marvel and was allowed to do anything he wanted, what character/plot would you want to see him work on? No wrong answers.
Read more…Not overwhelmed by this one. I think that it suffers from the same thing that the middle episodes of six-parters did back in the 60's and 70's - that of being the "filler" episodes wheere characters ran around, not achieving much, until they reached
