i suppose we are like that in the UK, which is reflected in some extent in the 'build 'em up and knock 'em down' press and our cynical outlook. and voter apathy. we don't accept what's presented to us as the real deal. which is a very healthy attitude, but makes it difficult to believe in say, indi...

Thoughts on the early fandom
Back in 1996, my rural Georgia subdivision finally was connected to the internet via dial-up service. Not too long after I decided to play around with this newfangle internet thing, and discovered search engines, namely Yahoo. To a 15 year old from a sparsely populated backwater area, this was an in...

Oh wow, sorry to hear that Securis. For my part I'm from the UK. We only saw the cartoon in stunted five-minute bursts and only during school holidays. Seeing cartoon footage of our heroes was like mana... and very much on the periphery. Here, marvel created a weekly Transformers comic and Optimus ...

I didn't much care for Iron Man 3, even though I'm a big fan of the Marvel movieverse that's been building up over the last several years. I thought it was ok. I just didn't like how completely nutso they went with the remote controlled suits. Jarvis was so much better than Iron Man. And I really do...

I think it needed more crashing through stuff. Not enough of that for my tastes. Seriously though, I agree that Henry Cavill was great. The thing that's really missing from MoS, just like what's missing from the rest of the Nolanverse (even though I think the Nolans are fantastic) is the sense of fu...

Yeh, I think the TF:TM cast's names are a little bit more nonsensical and tangenty just to sound more futuristic. Exactly. My interpretation of names like Kup and Wreck-Gar, from the time I first saw the movie, was that - in addition to the (possibly unsubstantiated) assumption that their names are...

Was Nightmare Planet season 3? I always found that viewing season 3 even through rose tented spectacles was less than rewarding, because the aesthetic seems so gloomy and it really lacks the sense of fun that seasons 1 and 2 had. Optimus having just been killed had left a very depressed mood upon us...
