What did you finish reading

2015

Sandman Overture by Neil Gaiman (scenario) and J. H. Williams III (art): Well, that is certainly a published comic book. I wanted to like this a lot more than I ended up actually liking it.

I didn't care for meeting the Endless' parents -- yeah, that's a thing now apparently. /does standard comics thing of "only

I thought this would be a kid's show!

Non, ça, c'est la série dérivée Sarah Jane, que je ne regarde pas. Class, c'est YA, ce qui a tendance à ne pas faire dans le tendre ces temps-ci (ex. : The 100). A part ça, ça continue de me faire bizarre à chaque fois qu'un Britannique commente quelque part que DW est une série pour les enfants. Je ne dis pas que des enfants ne peuvent pas regarder, mais bon, ça ne suit pas du tout les codes des séries "pour enfants".

Oui, je pensait que Class s'était plus Sarah Jane que Torchwood -- vu que la dernière fois qu'on était à l'école de Clara c'étaient des gamins, pas des ados. Comme je disais, j'ai rien suivi.

I don't watch Lucifer (though I probably should, based on the things I've seen), however the fact that Tricia Helfer is playing his mother makes everything so much more awesome, imho. :D

The Logan trailer fascinates me because it is so unlike the rest of the franchise. The tone and atmosphere is completely different, and I like that. I know most were rolling their eyes at the prospect of yet another Wolverine-centric film, but after this trailer I think many have changed their tune, especially after the X-23 reveal. I know I am intrigued.

I find Lucifer to be very silly and very entertaining, so I can only reccomend it on those grounds.

It's a completely different tone, sort of post-apocalyptic western, but it's oddly fitting. and OMG X-23!!!!!
