I thought it did a fine job of making transsexual characters.:)

There is precedent for butt-kicking librarians though. Take for example. YouTube - The Librarian 2 trailer

Ah yes, Syphi. Where Sci-Fi shows are given a chance as long as they can be produced on the budget of a reality show.

Terminator is this Friday.

Oh well, I guess I will have quite a marathon in a month.

I was wondering if anyone would catch that reference.

The question was do I need to see the first half of season 2 before I see the second half of season 2. (I will still see the first half, it will just be delayed)

Was there anything in the first four episodes of Season 2 that I shoulld hold off on watching the BBCA episodes while Sci-Fi catches up. Basicly I have not been watching until Sci-Fi picked it up. So I have seen all of season 1 now, but now BBCA is staring to show Season 3 while also...

Does Joss not learn? Negotiating with Fox is a losing battle. While they are renewing it, this is still Fox. Unless the show can maintain its patheticly weak 1.0 (Most shows drop between seasons) I suspect Fox will end up canceling it anyway after 3-4 episodes.

I guess the production values were too high for Syphi to show it.

Well there are accounts of me dating back as early as 1692. :D I don't read much of the modern stuff, and even Sci-Fi I haven't really bothered ready much past the 90s. I am not an English professor (unlike my father) and don't pay much attention to writing styles.

Colour me an old fuddy-duddy but I find that second example extremely hard to follow. I would give up on any book very quickly if the writing style were like that.

The problem is not that 3rd person needs to be mentioned, it is that using shaky cam is like going from 3rd person to 1st person then back to 3rd person. In a book I would find it confusing if the narrative kept jumping between 1st and 3rd person without a justification. Its not that it can't be...

As long as there was still some Rich Corinthian Leather somewhere in the movie.

The Star Trek franchise has been that hot, it just has 2 things going on that need to be accounted for. One is inflation, and the other is previous release patterns. First Contact made 30 Million in 1996 which equals 40 Million today and ended up grossing domestically 90 million which equals...

I am not a big fan of shaky cam in general even if the motion doesn't bother me in and of itself. The Blair Witch Project and Cloverfield worked for me because the entire film was designed to be a first person camcorder perspective. Unless a particular shot is supposed to be first person...

But there were Kzinti in the semi-canonical cartoon series. But the Hollywood studios regularly assume that people are advertising dupes, desperate, or easily captivated by shiny (exploding) things. We may disagree on whether we individually think this film falls in that category. But to think...

I would prefer a slow weaning rather than cold turkey.

As an example of this difference Star Wars spent 22 weeks (non-consecutive) as the number 1 movie in 1977-1978. I am not sure if Star Trek will remain number 1 next week against Angels & Demons, and it am fairly confident that it will fall by the following week when Terminator: Salvation opens...

For the viewers, or at least for me, it was just another case of "There seem to be all kinds of way for them to do it, why all the emo whining."
