Stephen Moffatt will succeed Russell T. Davies as Doctor Who showrunner. Good to finally have confirmation of something that's been known for quite some time. The next big announcement, I imagine, will involve the casting of the Eleventh Doctor in time for series five.

I just got around to taking a look at Invasion Earth and realized that, my goodness, it's UFO with a refit and Fred Ward in place of Ed Bishop. Needs exotic women in Bacofoil suits and shiny purple wigs, though, not to mention lots of primary colors. What it has in place of the shiny stuff of UFO is Deros...well, something like them.

Thundercats Outtakes.

SAG and AFTRA lose cohesion with each other. AFTRA blames SAG, SAG blames AFTRA, but given AFTRA's head-end behavior during the WGA strike, the fault likely lies mostly with AFTRA, who are apparently quite happy to sell their membership down the river to the corporations. the AMPTP members must be pretty gleeful -- a Divide & Conquer win that ( Read more... )

And incidentally, this is one of the few places where you'll hear Will Arnett as the voice of KITT -- due to a conflict, Arnett's voice has been replaced with that of Val Kilmer. It seems that GM really didn't want the voice of their trucks vocalizing a Ford product....

Just watching the last new episode of CSI:NY for the abbreviated season, and once again i find myself snorting with laughter and appreciating popfiend's tagging of the series as CSI: Justice League -- this time prompted by a scene where the field team gets a message that another homicide has been discovered two buildings away from the one they're standing ( Read more... )

Primeval is still extremely stupid.

Just ran the preview screener for Justice League: The New Frontier. There are several people on my friend's list who will make mighty sounds of squee when they watch this. There are some cuts (including one I do consider unfortunate), a couple of bits of voice casting I'm less than happy with, and some ( Read more... )
