Love Death & Robots popped up on Netflix. Just started watching it...very cool so far. David Fincher (Fight Club, Seven, Panic Room, The Game, etc) is behind it.

Today I learned a horrifying bit of information. When Wil Wheaton has his birthday this year, he'll be the same age Patrick Stewart was when he started playing Captain Picard. Just think about that.

They pretty much peaked with Deathstroke and it was only Flash/Supergirl crossovers keeping the show alive. I'm grateful that it introduced Caty Lotz to the world.

During a recent conversation the question came up, if you were a monster from myth or legend, what would you be? There are two ways to interpret this: which would you choose to be given the choice, or which creature somehow encapsulates you the best? I chose to go with the latter. I think I have it after some mulling it over. I think I would be a Minotaur. Solitary, anti-social (by most accounts), with a predilection for mazes and labyrinths. Of course, the Minotaur has come to mean an entire race of creatures rather than a singular monster. In D&D they are a category of evil monsters, while in WoW they are a player race for the Horde. Some have created a …

Katherine Helmond from Soap and Who's the Boss passed away Saturday at age 89. I always thought hse was funny and sexy. She also did an Elvira pilot in the 1990s that should have gone to series.

52, stroke. Most famous for playing Dylan McKay in Beverly Hills 90210, he also played Buffy's boyfriend in the movie Buffy the Vampire Slayer. It's jarring when famous people around my age suddenly die.

I really enjoyed this. Excellent characterization, particularly the interactions between Lois/Clark/Diana. The Doomsday fight in the first movie was extremely cool. Diana's quote really did a nice job framing the gravity of the situation. "Don't hold back, or he'll kill everyone" They did a really good job with the Kents, with Clark's efforts to save innocents caught up in the conflict, and just TONS of little dialogue nods to the fans. The diner scene with the secret reveals was handled well. Lex Luthor is such an ass. Really great job there too. I liked the way they bloodied up Clark more and more until the end…

This thread is for everything you didn't like about it. Spoilers: You will fall asleep several times. Damn this movie was long. Lots of plot seeds they introduced and then did nothing with. They could have trimmed at least an hour and lost nothing.

Looks interesting. Love the dialog callbacks to a certain well known genre film.

Just finished watching Wyrmwood: Road of the Dead with my daughter. Quick question for you guys who actually live there: Where does an Australian get a handgun? I assumed taken from a Law-Enforcement type turned zombie, but I didn't know if that was right, or if there were other options. Thanks! Duke
