  • Who is the bigger fool? The fool or <insert that one Old Ben Kenobi quote>? I would definitely watch this in a theater. Same as I have watched the re-release of a bunch of Hitchcock and Miyazaki movies.

    1. Dune is fun and a special kind of weird.
    2. I had lots of friends with massive crushes on Kyle McLaughlin, so I’ve seen most of what he was in.
    3. The rest of my friends had weird crushes on David Lynch
    4. there was some crossover between 2 and 3

    And then we’re not considering the whole Patrick Stewart thing. I can’t even remember if he played Gurney or Duncan (how is this a name and how much crack have you smoked?) Idaho.





  • Team America: Space Police. As a Canadian, I really fuckin hate that.

    As an American (in the US sense), so do I. It’s why I didn’t like SG1 but could sort of tolerate Atlantis.

    Oddly, the biggest SG1 fan I knew was Canadian. He was a bit of an odd duck, though. He’s the sort of guy who knew off the top of his head that the awkward woman on Breakfast Television was the daughter of Canada’s military chief. I would have traded citizenships with him if that were an option. He could have his paranoia and guns and I could have some healthcare.


  • So - I swear I tried to google this yesterday and came up empty. I have a weird question.

    Was there a third Sci-fi series that aired around the same time as Babylon 5 and DS9? It may have had a plot thread that involved genetically engineered space spies? Like telepathic central intelligence officers? Or am I thinking of B5?

    I was in college at the time (mid 90s) and didn’t have the free time to watch much TV. I caught an episode here or there and would occasionally talk about shows with my friend Spencer. I’m definitely not thinking about DS9 because I’ve seen that in its entirety fairly recently.
