Having lived in a so-called 'haunted' house, I am a definite believer in ghosts of some sort. Nothing will shake me in that belief, However, I am a definite athest, and have exactly zero belief in any kind of afterlife. I have no clue how my brain resolves these two ideas. they seem totally at odds ...

Those're ridiculously generic. Each of those jets has a fairly distinctive design, and the toys seem to get fairly close to that (under-jet kibble issues aside). how are they 'generic'? Edit: Check that, I suppose I was never taking these as anything more than a (very) broad homage to combining jet...

I watched a couple of the shows online in 2006-2009 and liked it very much. Good car reviews of old classics and my favorite fun part was the North Pole expedition. What happened to the show the last 3 year? It changed style? It's been running a wee bit longer than that... it used to be a clip show...

As for Grant-Naylor, I didn't see Rob Grant's name on the credits at all. Was he involved because Doug Naylor was the writer and director. just checked the end credits on episode 2. and not at all because i like to sing along to the theme tune. yup, its a grant-naylor production, though you're righ...

I like the weaponized deluxes for two reasons. firstly, i actively disliked the 'rounded' aesthetic of prime designs. purely a personal thing, but i prefer my car kibble to not bend, fold, and warp, in places it isn't supposed to. the addition of all the spikes and pointy bits makes them look more l...

going back to vegan recipes, my wifes attempts at making baked treats for me (I'm diabetic) have resulted in her discovering that by adding a can of pumpkin (apparently it comes in cans) to a box of sugar-free brownie mix (and NOT adding any oil, egg, or water), you get vegan-diabetic brownies. I ca...

Well I enjoyed it. possibly not the riot of laughs some of the better early episodes have been, but certainly not the 'unfunny' of back to earth (caveat: i did actually enjoy back to earth, red dwarf has always been more than a sitcom, so it was nice to see it lean on its drama-crutch, if only tempo...

well *that* was better, at least in terms of acting. Smith (for me at least) really faulters when he's trying to be angry and grown up, so seeing him being impetuous, childish, and temper-tantrum-y, really seems to suit him. Kingston, for the first time in a while, really didn't annoy me. Gillan was...

i think my biggest gripe with The Power Of Three is why couldn't the whole first half - the invasion of the cubes - have been told as the 'seasons story arc' during the first three episodes, with Asylum, Dinosaurs, and Mercy being told as the adventures than happened *during* the events of Three. it...

A Town Called Mercy - Not bad, and entertaining in and of itself, but beyond 'lets have the doctor vent a bit', and 'lets make the ponds a bit more nervous of him' it's hard to see how this slots into the overall series arc. it definitely did work well as a stand alone episode, which seems to be mor...

I just hate everyone anyway, so the only online/mp games i touch are the ones that don't require any interaction with other players. (twilight heroes, kol, etc). the only thing with the dreaded 'other people' i've ever played has been travian, and i desperately wish they'd develop a solo offline ver...

not much to add to the above, i think i agree with most points raised. I thought the idea of divorce was a bit of a stretch, but hey. i need another run through to try and spot out the different daleks, they all kinda blurred together to me. i did rather love the view of how the bonkers daleks see t...

The end of Gladiator (I actually think it's the music that gets me there). I can agree with DS9's The Visitor, mostly down to how Todd plays it. A couple of odd moments in doctor who over the years, Donnas mindwipe, Ecclestones regeneration, and the Van Gogh ending. recently went to a big-screen sho...

The only official product I have any remaining interest in (at least until movie 4 toys start getting contemplated) are the kreon microchangers, and that's mostly just for sh!ts and giggles. 3rd party stuff is way off my register due to my unemployedness (and mostly what does catch my eye is a coupl...

just watched Starship Troopers: Invasion animated movie since io9 had been plugging it as 'possibly the best and only true sequel to the original movie'. um... no. it was entertaining enough as a thing unto itself, even if the ending had multiple moments of head-scratching stupidity, but what really...
