I had to explain what was going on in season 2 episode 1 of Loki to my dad. On his second watch.

I actually preferred the first episode to the second. I thought the pacing was weird in the second. All that time on ( spoilers )

I just got a comment on AO3 of "omfg the first obimaul fic ever" and my first reaction was "Hardly!" but then I looked things up and saw that I am... on Archive of Our Own. It was in the Sith Academy universe, where that story is #57 chronologically. Not all of them were ObiMaul by any means, but I wasn't the first to hint at the attraction. That ( Read more... )

Saturday night, around 9:30 pm, I decided to take a drive into Manhattan to see if any cool window displays had gone up. I should have realized from the start that the trip was ill-fated when it began with 25 minutes of bumper to bumper traffic for two miles on the L.I.E. that my phone didn't warn me about that turned out to be caused by a three- ( Read more... )

I know the Gotham season finale aired quite a while ago by now but still wanted to say a few things about the last few episodes of the season.

Gotham had the Riddler behave like such a petulant, resentful Nice Guy to the woman he chose over Penguin that I came to feel that the Riddler's not good enough for Penguin, who deserves better. ...thanks ( Read more... )

"Star Wars Minus Star Wars - Between the Lines" : "...here’s Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope...

...told without using a single image or sound from Star Wars."

A look backwards and forwards through TV shows, films, and video games at the inspirations for Star Wars and the works inspired by Star Wars. (Circle of life....) There's an annotated ( Read more... )

This Star Wars vid, set to Hamilton's "History Has Its Eyes on You," made me cry a bit.

I've been enjoying some of Bad Lip Reading's vids. While the funny, ridiculous, and occasionally weirdly poignant "Bushes of Love" is quite notable, a lot of their other, excellent, Star Wars vids involve some musical numbers and should be watched. Ditto their ( Read more... )
